The Plough in North Kesteven

Just the best evening, an amazing warm welcome, outstanding service and the food was just fantastic. Can’t recommend highly enough, an absolute gem of a pub 🙏

A lunch time treat for our anniversary and what a treat it was! Super food and service. I had three courses which is unheard of but I just had to have dessert as the main and starter were so delicious. An inviting menu in cosy surroundings - highly recommend.

Fantastic visit today… tremendous welcome after arduous journey… the food was wonderful and we’re delighted to have discovered the plough Will definitely be returning soon! Thank you

This restaurant never disappoints the food is excellent, and our host is very friendly and attentive I had the lambs liver and it was fantastic! The presentation is beautiful all in all an excellent meal again!

Sunday lunch at the Plough is definitely something to savour. A booking is hard to achieve as it's such a popular venue. However, having booked, we loved our meals. Terrific, high quality ingredients and so well cooked and presented. Not cheap, but probably the best Sunday lunch we've had for many years. We've booked again, obviously.

The highest of quality of food , so good and home made. The service and friendly owners are second to none. My second visit and will certainly return at every opportunity...this is one not to miss !!!

A return visit that never disappoints. It was a great anniversary meal. The food is exceptional, and Sarah and Paul make you feel very welcome. A must if you can get in. It is very sought after, and you can see why.

Sarah & Paul have worked their collective but ends off to make this ABSOLUTE GEM of an establishment into a one in a million locations of absolute excellence! Quite literally everything we experienced was absolute perfection and we will definitely be returning.

Absolutely amazing meal, could not fault it and the service was exceptional, would highly recommend. Food was high end and delicious. Service was attentive and professional.

OMG, outstanding! Food, ambience and service was exquisite. Can't recommend highly enough, definitely worth a visit.

We seem to go about once a year. This is only because a bit out of our way and also we don't like going too often to any one place. Slightly more expensive than your average "Pub" Sunday lunch but well worth the little extra as a cut above. Starter soup was so tasty. Both Roast Beef and Pork we each had cooked to perfection with all veg and roast potatoes piping hot and home made. My date pudding with cornish cream ice cream really hit the spot. That was our third visit and rest assured we will be back. Thank you to our hostess and chef not forgetting the waitresses.

An excellent meal. Beautifully cooked food, great service and a menu full of reasons to return. A real gem in the area that I'd recommend to anyone. I visited with my sister and seriously tempted to return tomorrow with the rest of the family.

Had heard really good things about the plough inn. All were absolutely true following our experience last night. 4 of us went for dinner expecting great things and we were not disappointed. Warm welcome as soon as we walked in, shown to our table and given menus. A couple of minutes later drinks order taken. Served quickly and food ordered. Small plate starters of fish goujons and lamb sausages for 2 of us. Both were good and the sausages were really good. Some bread to soak up the sauce would have been nice. Mains of pork belly, calf's liver, sea bass and slow braised beef bourguignon. All came with well cooked accompaniments. The black pudding mash with the pork was a delightful find. Deserts of date sticky toffee pudding, malted dark chocolate tart and tiramisu, all obviously home made rounded the meal off superbly. All very pleasantly served by both staff and a nice attitude and approach by the landlady. Will definitely be back there before too long.

The food is spot on; I’ve been for Sunday lunch twice - you can’t beat it. Great quality, crowd pleasing menu. Service friendly; slightly dated decor - but honestly the best in the area if not the U.K. !

Excellent food, friendly. Value for money but expect to spend £25-30 per head not including drinks - 2 courses. Lovely pleasant setting, restaurant very appealing.

I’ve not been to the Plough for a couple of years, certainly since it’s been taken over, the menu was excellent, the food was exceptional, and the service was first class very friendly and happy to chat, with the focus on the clientele, will definitely visit and eat again.

Food, service, atmosphere all excellent. Very good quality food and such a warm and friendly welcome. Will certainly be visiting again.

We came here for my dads 80th birthday. What a brilliant choice. The owners could not have been more helpful, letting us decorate a beautiful private area. There were 12 of us and we had such a fantastic meal and a brilliant night. Nothing was too much trouble and the chef made special dishes for two of us even though they were super busy. Very charming old world pub with a great atmosphere.

Amazing place the service excellent the menu fabulous. We visited when visiting friends in the area they had to book in advance as this place is popular- we now know why. A husband and wife team impeccable service and food that was extremely good. The food is local and seasonal and cooked to perfection. Could fault nothing.

Heard this place was worth a visit so thought would give it a try and found it to be very welcoming, cosy and well organised. The food was excellent and presented well. A nice atmosphere, busy but not rushed and Sarah found time to have a chat and answer our queries about future visits. A lovely evening and we will return.

I had booked a table for my daughters 30th birthday. On arrival....the pub is beautiful...so pretty...warm and inviting. The food was literally amazing......Best food I've tasted in years!!!!.....and pudding to die for.....I can highly recommend this beautiful pub....but makesure you book in advance!!!.....

We have visited a few times now but feel that standards have slipped since our first visit after this venue reopened with new owners. On our first visit we found the food excellent, I even had 3 courses which is unheard of ! However we have now found that the menu is not as good or inventive as before just basic pub grub albeit well cooked. My main gripe and the reason for this review is that the place looks an absolute tip, both the bar and restaurant need a really good tidy up, I don’t want to sit eating my meal whilst looking at the unkempt bar containing at least 4 spray bottles of cleaning fluid, various j cloths, dirty glasses and opened bottles of wine on the counter, the bar area was the same with two opened packs of catering peanuts and cardboard boxes all over the bar counter. For goodness sake please delegate and teach your staff the art of tidying up which will also stop them from looking so bored. Our last visit has really put us off visiting again which is such a shame.

This is the best meal I’ve had in years, maybe ever. Advertised as pub food, this pub offers restaurant quality food from a lovely village setting. The service was excellent and the only problem is that the secret is out and you need to book. In my opinion, the Chef and joint owner made the George at Stamford famous’, and this pub is that and more.

What a superb venue. The Plough in Wilford is a popular venue for good reason, so book well in advance. A wonderful rustic pub in a small rural village, that offers a wonderful dining experience. The menu isn’t vast, but in my view that’s a good thing, but it does cater for most tastes. We were a table of 4 and every plate ordered was simply wonderful. Sarah the owner is very cheerful and chatty who is happy to explain in detail each dish on the menu, to help you choose. Her husband is the Chef, who must be complimented for his skills in presenting plentiful and very tasty plates of food. We have friends visiting next Month and we were lucky enough to book a repeat visit, I honestly can’t wait.

Excellent service . A good selection on the menu and the food did not disappoint ! Great quality and value . Book early to ensure you get a table

Always outstanding Everytime I go. The service, the food and fantastic setting with open fire makes any meal eaten here nothing but enjoyable. I had steak which was beautifully cooked. My friend had fish and chips (looked beautiful and huge!) The food is second to none and this with the landlady who is fantastic who goes out of her way to make sure your experience is perfect. Keep up the fantastic work you truly are running an amazing little pub there 😊

The plough is the most beautiful, warm and cozy pub with the roaring open fire making it the perfect setting for bringing my friends and family to enjoy a meal. The owners go above any beyond to make sure your dining experience is perfect for you and the food ...wow! Between us all we had a wide variety of food, from fish and chips, lamb and steak and all were absolutely beautiful. Infact the only complaint was that we wanted more ha ha. Honestly the best food we have eaten in a long time with the best service.

Poor choice of menu. I had the Muscles no bread for the sauce, a lot of the shells were empty no finger bowl. Room was very dusty. Had to ask for ice in my gin! Very disappointed other members of the party not impressed. Sorry would not recommend.

First time but will definitely be back again and again.... Lovely ambiance and the food and service is superb. Deservedly busy.

We visited with friends on the 2nd December for our annual Christmas meal out. 9 of us in total and the restaurant was full. Service was excellent, host was very welcoming and the food Devine. I started with the cheese soufflé which melted in the mouth and the right flavour of cheese. The roast Turkey was moist and roast potatoes actually crispy. I finished this with the cheeseboard. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we will definitely be back. A wonderful place for a special occasion.

Absolutely wonderful meal with superbly cooked game and ox cheeks that are worthy of a Michelin star😁 never fails to impress on every visit but Sarah is a wonderful host and always very accommodating to our requirements.

We we’re visiting Family today in Sleaford and it was also my mum’s 92nd birthday. My sister in law had booked the Plough as a treat for all of us and what a treat it was. We weren’t going to have 3 courses but the menu, the lovely smell of food cooking and the ambiance of the place tempted us. The food was lovely, well presented snd absolutely delicious. We had the white bait and Burrata and tomato salad, the beef cheeks bourgnigon, Roast chicken and chorizo risotto, the fish stew finished with the chocolate tart, tiramisu and the panacotta. Phew!! My elderly mum struggles to eat lots of foods now but they tweaked her choice and made suggestions so that she could enjoy her lunch. They even put a sparkler in her dessert for her birthday. I’m told it can be difficult to get a table and I’m not surprised!!

My first visit to this cosy, village pub in the pretty village of Wilsford. We had the most delicious autumnal lunch of melt-in-the mouth beef cheek followed by sticky toffee pudding. The butterscotch sauce is the best I have ever tasted. Lovely, friendly service from Sarah. The pub is quite small and was full so I recommend booking in advance. An absolute delight!

After turning up thinking we had booked a table for 4 o'clock only to find out we had booked the wrong restaurant, the owner Sarah was so accommadating she managed to fit us in. We were so pleased she did as we had been wanting to try the Plough for some time after recommendations. Sunday lunch was outstanding. Everything served exceeded expectations. Food was so tasty and atmosphere was so relaxed and service was brilliant. We can't wait to come back.

Wonderful food with excellent service from Sarah. You feel completely at home, no rush and completely relaxing atmosphere. We would have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful country pub and the varied home made menu.

Brilliant recommendation by a friend. A truly wonderful pub, excellent food, lovely service and relaxing atmosphere.

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Sarah and Paul. We visited for our 50th Wedding anniversary on the 2nd of September. The Plough delivered Gold. 22 and a half (sorry Annie) sat down to superb lunch, choices of starter, one main, choices of desert, cake and superb champagne. The attention was what we now expect from Sarah and Paul, unrivalled, unpretentious and faultless. The only downside is that it is 50 miles too far west. The people of Grantham and Sleaford should be so grateful they have the plough on their doorstep. Value for money? I don't know how they do it. Keep up the good work we all love it. Giles and Irene

Great friendly welcome and good service throughout. Excellent menu, with prices on the higher side of average but with higher quality food as well. Wine list is good with decent prices. We will return.

After a long journey, we walked along from our accommodation and chanced our luck to get a table for dinner. It was fully booked but Sarah went above and beyond to make space for us. We all had something different off the menu and none of us were disappointed. Absolutely delicious! Pity we’re only here for a short time as would love to taste more dishes off the menu. Lovely atmosphere, service and food. What’s not to like.

Absolutely amazing food and service. Staff were so friendly and very helpful. Will definitely return soon and highly recommend you visit , you will not be disappointed.

What a find. Our first visit to The Plough Inn, and we couldn't fault it. Wonderful hospitality, amazing food. Sarah even produced a dessert for me that wasn't on the menu. We will definitely return, can't wait.

On our way back from Boston to Belton Woods this evening we saw signs for The Plough and turned into into the village of Wilsford. We were welcomed immediately as we stepped through the door and despite being very busy were found a table. We ordered the Salmon, and the Lamb sausages. The food was of a high quality and the taste was exceptional without being 'over-Cheffed' as many places tend to do now. I particularly loved the blend of salmon with new potatoes and Thai green spice sauce. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the Minted lamb sausages and mash. The friendliness and ambiance is completely on point. Well done - great job, thank you and best of luck for the future.

I would like to thank Sarah and Paul for a fantastic Sunday lunch . Comfortable surroundings, very relaxed and tables that were big enough to be able to take all the plates glasses etc without seeming cluttered . Plates very hot ( many restaurants do not think about this ) Food was fantastic from start to finish . Really well presented and with a smile from all the staff. In life you get what you pay for . This is a gem . Many thanks Mark n Sara

We visited the plough today for Sunday lunch with good friends. It is always a pleasure when your expectations are exceeded. At the plough inn everything is spot on. Food incredible, service excellent and for me what makes or breaks a top venue are the little touches. At the plough they have got everything right. If I could give six stars I would. We have found out new favourite Sunday lunch venue

We looked for a country pub on the way home from visiting our daughter at university and found The Plough.We had a very warm welcome from Sarah and Paul. There were two excellent ales on offer as well as a range of lagers, ciders etc. We chose the salmon and pate as starters and both were excellent, and then both had the roast beef. It was beautifully cooked and came with amazing cauliflower cheese and roasted vegetables.We hardly had room for desert so shared some profiteroles which were excellent too. Couldn't fault it.Apparently the owners haven't had the place long, but clearly have hit the ground running.Hope to drop in again when we're next in the area.

IMO this restaurant's quality has deteriorated in recent times. The service is good but the food is hit & miss. My beef pie was not as shown on the menu, and clearly microwaved from frozen, thus making the pastry, not suet, inedible. The meat was tough. Everything else was fine. Its a shame that this attention to detail spoils a good location.

We booked well in advance as we know how busy this place gets, with just cause I might add. The whole experience was superb, the food, service and surroundings, so much so we booked again while we were there, and the chef stood outside in pouring rain to wave us off!

We have had numerous meals over the past 3 months and all have been excellent. Special shout out on the lasagne and burgers and the puddings are phenomenal

Wow!!! This really is a hidden gem!! The owner and chef is French and the food is out of this world!!! As a vegetarian, I chose the Sweet Potato and Spinach Curry - it was beautifully served and despite being someone who would not normally choose a spicy option, it was like when you watch a good film or read a thrilling book... I did not want it to end!!!! Plenty of French dishes on the menu as well as traditional English ones. Of course I couldn’t resist a dessert.. et je reviendrai!!! Bien sûr!!!

During this pandemic and self isolating Sunday Lunch delivered to your door,is something to look forward to the food is excellent. You can also have a wonderful meal delivered through the week too.

Great little pub we found that does excellent pub food at a really high standard at a really good price, I highly recommend the steak and ale pie. Dog friendly, and great atmosphere. The staff were so welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help you.

Traditional and very cosy pub with super tasty and great value food. Heartily recommend. Beer good and dog friendly

Went to the pub for lunch with our club members we were put in the Conservatory very cold but the Landlord went his way to move tables and put heating on in lounge we all had a Superb Sunday Lunch and dessert and we were all warm and toasty, definitely recommend it, lovely village pub x

Lovely Friday lunch time treatPopped in for an unexpected Friday lunch. Everything was lovely. Hubbie had mussels to start, then he had faggots off the specials and I had steak pie which was honestly one of the best I’d ever had. The steak was so tender and pastry and gravy were delicious. Had sticky toffee pudding between us and the chef was accommodating enough to halve it one with custard and mine with ice cream. It’s the little things that make a difference!!! All fabulous and will definitely be back!!!

Spotted this quaint little gem on Tripadvisor this week, called in for lunch today on spec, we were greeted by Lilly who ask us if we’d like a table. The menu had plenty of choice we liked and reasonably priced. We were served drinks - I had a Bombadier bitter and my wife a G&T from their extensive list of choices, while we waited for our lunches which were served piping hot and absolutely delicious with vegetables served separately in side dishes well presented. The desserts topped off a fabulous lunch, I had syrup sponge & 2 jugs of custard - to die for, while my wife had ice cream & custard which Lilly said she’d never been asked for before! The ambience, food and staff - simply wonderful - we’ll definitely return❤️

Excellent steak and ale pie, with beautifully cooked vegetables. Very nice chicken and sauce. Lovely place and great service. Good value for money at just over £20 for two main meals.

We visit here often for Sunday lunch which is excellent the pub is warm and inviting with a good atmosphere my husbands favourite place the food is consistently good have to book as very popular

I can't believe that it's so long since we last visited the superb inn. This time we went with friends who hadn't been before but they will definitely visit again. Very relaxed and friendly with a lovely atmosphere this hostelry continues to provide good food, service and great surroundings to make you feel at home. Nothing is too much trouble and the wines, spirits and ales provide a good range of choice as does the food menu.Generally a smart/casual dress code will suffice but the ambience is definitely top class!

This pub restaurant never fails to deliver. We all had something we had never had before here, my sisters smoked salmon and asparagus tartlet with salad looked quite small when it arrived but tasted great and the pastry was light and crisp. Two of us had fish pie full of fish and flavour and Nicks faggots, local, once again great option of peas or mushy as well. Three of us opted for the ginger sponge... and nicks chocolate fondent again ten out of ten and for the price around £60 for four including drinks great value.

Another excellent meal at the Plough, up to its usual standard. The greeting, service, food and atmosphere are all top notch, and prices more than reasonable. The landlord's daughter is a treasure.

Every time we pass the sign on the main road we would say we must give the Plough a try and if you say the same do it because you are missing out on a real treat if you don't!

Visited with a group on friends who don't see each other very often. The table we had booked was in the bar/restaurant area & was so noisy - nice to see the place full & lively but we wanted to be able to talk. They kindly moved us to the conservatory, which was lovely & much lighter, brighter & pleasant.

One of those hidden gems that always seems to be busy. Perhaps not so hidden. The Plough is in Wilsford off the Grantham/Sleaford Road. Great menu items, traditional Lincolnshire fayre with French classics. Brilliant and attentive service together with a good drinks selection. Olde Worlde charm with the benefit of a conservatory overlooking the garden.

I have not been in this pub for 40 years and what a change. Met with a smile and shown to table. The waitress took time to bring the specials board over and went through them.Food was of a very high quality and a great menu to choose from. Such a friendly place. Already booked Sunday lunch and can't wait to go back. We heard by word of mouth about it and it will now be on our choice of places to eat.

I have eaten here twice recently. Once at lunch, just on the off chance and then we booked to take friends for an evening meal. Both times, we were given a warm welcome. The menu is varied, he food cooked to order and there is also a specials board. Both visits, I had the seafood platter, which was delicious. Lovely light tempura batter on the prawns. My friend enjoyed his steak and my husband, the beef bourguignon. The puds were huge as well, with the sticky toffee and ginger obviously being home made. I loved my banana split and we all left feeling very satisfied. The pub has a good atmosphere and they were fully booked for food on the Saturday night. Our friends were also impressed with the cost as well - very reasonable. I would definitely want to go again. A little gem of a pub.

We visited on a Friday evening as a pre-booked party of 8, and were lucky enough to have a very cosy separate room adjacent to the main bar where we could all comfortably sit at a nice large table in front of a cheerful ( mock ) log fire.

We are a group of 26+ retired work colleagues and this is our second annual get together at the Plough. Laurent and his staff 'did us proud' and I am sure we will be back next year. The food and service was excellent and there is plenty of choice.

First review we were so impressed all home made , since then less so . Pre Pac calamari, bread rolls and seasonal veg seems to be peas from the freezer, shame as reasonable prices but less impressed and will be a while till return.

So we were jusy going to roll up Friday lunch, but i decided to check if dogs were allowed into the pub. Good thing I did, pub was fully booked, but they were abel to squeeze us in, dog and all. So note one, book! We had a very nice greeting and directed to our table. Drinks and food order made at the table. Queenie had a wine at £4.50, i had large pepsi £2.50. Wife ordered rump steak, £13.95. I ordered corrage pie off the 2 for £12.95 menu (as it was only one meal, was charge £6.95). Food was well prepared and presented and in my humble opinion very good value. Finished with a coffee £1.90. So all in lunch for £29.80. Pub caters for vegetarians with options. This is very good value and we will definitiely be revisiting. Highly recommended.

Excellent food from a varied menu, friendly, helpful service, sharp prices, especially the two lunches deal. Even the house wine is good :).

Superb experience from the friendly hostess to the delicious home made food in a lovely old pub that had charm and warmth a plenty. Food arrived quickly and such a variety . We were the only ones in on arrival at 6 on a Tuesday and when left the place was packed . No surprise given the quality. The drinks and service were very good (perhaps a better cider ) but can't really give less than 100% satisfaction, value was equally impressive

Came across the Plough by accident. We were looking for somewhere to eat whilst travelling from Sleaford to Grantham and saw the signs on the main road. It was bang on 6pm when we called in and although they were booked up the landlord changed things round to accommodate us. The meal was absolutely top drawer, so much so we booked for the following evening. This coincided with an England game during the world cup and the landlord, despite being French, put a tv up in one of the rooms and we were joined by numerous locals for a really enjoyable evening. I can strongly recommend it

Spotted the sign for the Pub whilst staying near by.

Totally Random visit to Lovely Village of Wilsford by 5 of us on way back from RSPB reserves by Boston. Closed Plain Wooden door of the Pub made place look shut but pushed open it revealed a busy bar set in Olde Worlde beamed room. Initially told they were fully booked (Thurs night) but the Gaffer guided us to the Conservatory, which was fine. Horncastle bitter was good enough & despite the busy evening we had meals on our tables within 1/2 hour. Chicken Supreme. Fish pie & 3 Steak pies with suet pastry. All wiped clean. For a chance visit we dropped lucky. Good Pub Food & Beer.

I came to the Plough with my young son for lunch. The food was delicious and the service really friendly and attentive. We had a juice spill and within seconds the owner’s son appeared with a cloth and a reassuring smile for my son. All in all a taste of high quality home made food prepared with care & attention to detail. Yummy!! Thank you.. :)

We arrived to an empty pub around 6.30pm but within half an hour the place was buzzing.

Excellent lunchtime service. Wonderful food especially with 12 fussy ladies!! Have re-booked already!!

A very welcoming venue with good service! Nothing is too much trouble for the landlord and host Laurent. Great to find a pub which welcomes well behaved dogs too.....

My son and I stumbled upon The Plough purely by chance, having never been to Wilsford before. The main room is charming and has a lovely atmosphere complete with roaring fire, beams, tartan carpet, and a quirky bar made out of dark wood panelling and reclaimed mahogony drawers. The beer is extremely well kept, the food was exceptionally good, and the welcome and service from the landlord was exemplary. All in all everything a great English pub should be! We will likely be spending more time in Lincolnshire over the next few years, and I'm very pleased to have found The Plough, we will definitely be returning.

Really friendly staff. Nice ambience and the food was lovely ! One of the best Sunday lunches we've had this year. All home made- excellent. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Plough.

We visited this superb inn yet again, this time with friends and if never fails to impress. The welcome, the atmosphere, the food, just how good can a hostelry get? The whole experience was excellent, well presented, very tasty and served by attentive staff. This is a place that we shall visit again and again for the ambiance and consistency of service.

Today a group of us had lunch at The Plough, some had eaten there before and said how good it was, and how right they were. A good warm welcome, offered by so many pubs and not received was given to us, and the food was first class. I had the steak and ale pie with suet topping, which was to die for and other people felt the same about their meals, I've never seen to many clean plates. I didn't expect to stay for a pudding but when the menu came I couldn't resist the chocolate and cherry fondant with cream and ice cream, delicious. Some of our party had puddings too, the ginger pudding was to die for and the tart tatin the same. All in all a delicious meal. When I got home I was telling my husband about it, when the awful truth dawned on me that I hadn't paid for it, I rang immediately and was told just drop it in when you are passing, no recimminations at all, Have just put a cheque in the post, and hopefully will be lunching or dining there again soon. Well done to The Plough and staff.

Food was really nice had a main and a desert but can't help feel like I'm in the film "the hills have eyes" and they "don't like stranger round these parts" with the reception we got from the bar staff.

It was such a pleasant evening on Saturday at the Plough Inn. A wide range of choices of starters and main meals being served with four fresh seasonal vegetables cooked to perfection with a rare choice of mashed potatoes as well as chips and boiled. We thoroughly enjoyed our beef bourgignon and chicken in sauce Normande. The vast majority of meals were under £10 and good sized portions so excellent value, as were the homemade desserts at £3.95. The choice of hot and cold puddings was superb. The pannacotta and cheesecake were both lovely. Staff were friendly and service was good, we will definitely return.

Very good food and extraordinary value for money. We went for the two main courses for £12 option - my wife's sea food platter was generous and very well presented - the chips with it had a subtle taste which took me back to my childhood. I went for the faggots and mash - which I can strongly recommend for flavour and richness of the gravy. No space I fear for anything else but the bill including drinks came to £15. I can see why this place is so popular and we were grateful we got there early as we hadn't booked. Would definitely return.

We visited The Plough regularly since Laurent and Sally took over. The food is delicious the service excellent and the atmosphere friendly. We also were impressed with the cleanliness and their specialities, Sunday roast and an inspired a la carte menu add to the pleasure of visiting this excellent pub. Bill & Mafalda

have stopped here a few times now. Great service and food, plenty of it and really good value. Dry white wine is good, and it often isn't in pubs.

Just returned from this amazing old inn and sitting totally replete after another tasty meal. Nobody could fail to be utterly charmed by the owner and staff serving a nice range of home cooked and well presented meals. I rarely give the full five points as the establishment really has to try hard to impress to this extent and the Plough Inn achieves this in buckets. It isn't big and pretentious but just a great village hostelry offering good value for money. No wonder that you have to book to get a table!

Roast lamb was very good as was the Bacon chop and mashed smooth potato and fresh veg, mixed indian food starter very tasty, did not have pub but apparently the ginger bread and orange cheese cake was lush.

Had Sunday lunch here on a number of occasions. Always good value, always cooked beautifully A lovely warm welcome from the landlord.

Went for fathers day with my family and father in law. Despite having plenty of staff there was simply no organisation. Staff stood doing nothing whilst people sat with empty plates and we tried for ten minutes to get another drink. The food was only average although not over expensive. Two coarses of Sunday lunch took just over 2 hrs. We asked for a desert menu after waiting twenty minutes after the main coarse but was told there were not enough menus and would have to wait for someone to finish with one. No one even took the initiative to tell us the 4 or 5 items for desert. It was so frustrating because it was simple pub grub, nothing more nothing less. Very very disappointed.

My family and I came across the Plough only by virtue of the brown sign from the main road bypassing the village, and I'm so glad we did. They were fully booked up, but let the six of us, plus our old dog, use the conservatory. It was a sunny day, and the chap running the place went out of his way to make sure that the temperature was comfortable for us. He and the staff were very friendly and welcoming.The level of service continued the good impression, and then came the puddings! I had ginger cake, with ginger sauce and loads of custard, my wife had a banana split, and the kids had cheese cake. They were all magnificent, with generous portions, and very reasonably priced too.We don't pass that way very frequently I'm afraid, but I can't recommend it highly enough, if you happen to find yourself in need of grub in that area.

My mum was celebrating her 70th birthday and wanted somewhere to have a family meal for 8. We hadn't been to the Plough at Wilford before but it had been recommended to us. Great service, fabulous food and a lovely atmosphere also great value too. Would highly recommend it.

Fantastic food service, never had a less than great meal. Spot on beer. laurent and Sally makes all welcome, children and dogs alike, great village pub. Took fish and chips away on Friday the best we have ever had. Great pub great owners.

Excellent locally sourced home cooked food at a great price - delicious! Staff attentive and happy to help, nothing too much trouble. Propriator friendly with a good sense of humour. Booked in again but this time with friends. Agree with all the positive reviews.

Arrived here on the offchance, seeing where our nose took us out on the bike. It was Easter Sunday, so we were only hoping to sneak in for a drink and maybe a sandwich - got there about 11:30, so pretty much first through the door. We were met by a very friendly and helpful Frenchman who I believe is the owner. We were fitted in with no trouble (we were not booked, at almost lunchtime, on what was to be a very busy Sunday) and served promptly. The food, when it came, was hot, well presented, and very, very tasty. The pub was clearly well thought of, and had a large number of obviously regular patrons through the doors, all of whom were friendly. The large volume of customers, however, did not have an adverse effect on the speed of service or the quality of the food. A really nice place, and an excellent little find on a random road trip. Recommended!

We've been to the Plough at Wilsford many times in the past and always found it welcoming. The new landlord and staff however have taken it to up to a superior level. Some refurbishment work has been done with more to follow and has made the surroundings even more comfortable. The whole ambiance is what you would hope for in a country inn and the pleasant owners and attentive staff means that you will seamlessly float through a very enjoyable meal. Nothing is too much trouble and all done with some friendly but unobtrusive banter which makes you feel at home straightaway. The food is of good quality, well prepared and delicious served in a competent and professional manner. Priced very reasonably so that you feel you have very good value for money in cosy surroundings.Book to ensure a space at weekends or just turn up in the week (but you do take pot luck as it will become more popular) and make the journey to this excellent eatery, you'll be glad that you did!

A large party of hungry walkers were well fed and watered. The 2 meals for £12 menu was varied and substantial. We had ordered in advance and the food was speedily served and very tasty. We were already planning a return visit before leaving. Well done to all the staff.

Really cannot rate this pub high enough.3rd visit in 3 weeks as part of a walk.Specials board will cater for almost everyone, and if not the main menu is superb.Had the Aberdeen Angus burger with cheese and bacon. Can honestly say it is the best burger I have ever had. Definitely having that again next week.Great pint of ale at each visit, and seemingly from local breweries.

We booked a table here last minute for the family. We were made to feel very welcome including the children. Meals were great home cooked proper food. Lovely cozy pub .
