The Railway inn in Cheshire East - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

They throw people out if they don't pay £5 for a Hot Chocolate. It's ridiculous! The lady Julie is soooooooo rude so is Colin.

I went with my partner and son for Christmas day. The food was nice, but massively overpriced. We paid £25 deposit, and £170. We had 2 adult Christmas dinners, 1 Child Christmas Dinner, and we all had chocolate fudge cake for pudding. We paid separately for drinks. I think for 2 courses it was stupidly expensive. Unfortunately, we would not go again. The food served was basically a Sunday roast with pudding, there was nothing spectacular that was worth that much.

Amazing Sunday lunch AGAIN, I chose the beef and the good lady wife chose the turkey, lovely seating areas and service provided by great people, the owners are great and all staff attentive. Very reasonable prices for traditional home cooked food, served quickly & hot, yummy, lovely pub/restaurant for all occasions, well done all, Dan & Lisa

Had garlic mushrooms but sorry tasted nothing like, had barbecued taste unusual but I didn’t like them, side of chips were enough to feed 4 people overfaced and not best chips, amount of flies were unbelievable landing in my wine fished out half dozen! Won’t be calling again afraid Saturday night and no one eating, shame nice pub bad food unfortunately.

Just had a another lovely meal at the Railway. 4 different mains and all were absolutely amazing, portions so big and everything so fresh. Would definitely recommend this pub for a meal food is awesome and staff are really friendly.

Pleasantly surprised by this pub. It doesn't look a lot from outside but inside it is done out nicely. The food was very impressive indeed. My lamb shank was gorgeous but everyone was exceptionally pleased with the food and we will all be recommending. The lady behind the bar was really nice and friendly.

Fantastic,friendly service and great food. Chefs chips are delicious! Lasagne gorgeous, really good potion sizes. Very reasonable prices.

Nipped in for lunch in passing, was a lovely lunch after a local walk, excellent food, great service.

Extremely friendly staff and great food. Chef made a special visit to our table ensure everything was good. Reasonably priced too

Some of the best food iv had while out and the Yorkshire puddings are the best I ever had better then any iv had before (the size of them) and the gravy was lovely you can tell it was home made with the beef juice.

great food and great drink, provided with a Frozen glass. I left my wallet on the on the window by the Pool Table with £120 in and the Staff called me up and returned it. Very trustworthy and a very friendly Staff especially the Bar Lady who was on at the time. (Sunday 6th November )

We called in here for Sunday lunch, starter was ok you can't go wrong with packet pate, bread and salad. Main course was not good, cauliflower, broccoli and carrots so over cooked touched them with my fork and they turned to mush. Beef thin sliced and tasteless, roast potatoes did not taste home made, tasted like Aunt Bessie's, gravy very thin watery with little specks in looked and tasted instant. Best part of the dinner was the Yorkshire, that also tasted like Aunt Bessie's. Very disapointed

This is somewhere I hadn’t visited for quite a while and my recent return was a evening enjoy by all attending. The service was nothing to fault and the barmaid (Phoebe) was very interactive and friendly. The food was to die for and a return is needed very soon. Overall a lovely time.

I just wanted to write a quick review to thank the Railway Inn. I had a party there over the weekend and Phil and Craig went above and beyond! They helped to set up the seating area with white tablecloths and set it up so that we could play our own party music. The bar staff were also lovely and very attentive. Thanks again!

Had heard that the food was supposed to be great, sadly not great, just average. was expectant on ordering the wholetail scampi, only to receive what looked and tasted like frozen supermarket scampi. the gammon however was good. homemade chips were not crispy, overall not a meal that will make us return to the Railway. During the whole time we were there a dog was allowed to roam around unattended, staff stroking and cuddling this dog and then going back to serving, where on earth are your hygiene standards! ...and not everyone is a dog lover.

Seven of us went for evening meal on Friday 21st. We had drinks (various) and several different meals (2 x Pate & Salad, 2x scampi, Hunters chicken, Lasagne & Chicken goujons & chips). Every meal was excellent - very little food uneaten. Prices were also very reasonable. The young staff looked after us very well & were very attentive & helpful. The chef even made an appearance to check that we had enjoyed the food. A nice touch!

Went here for a birthday meal (23rd September)waited ages to be brought a menu,finally (after waiting a unacceptable period)we ordered,when the food finally arrived it resembled something you would find squashed by the roadside,a brioche bun the thickness of a piece of A4 paper,medium rare steak full of gristle,I’ve also never seen grey chips,pepper sauce that’s never seen pepper & tasting of cornflour....All told we only paid for one meal.. the chef/manager didn’t seem too interested that we’d had 3 bad & tasteless meals,if you want value & quality avoid this place like the plague.

We have visited twice recently for meals and enjoyed good pub food at reasonable prices. Service is good and Covid safety measures also good. Lamb chops were absolutely excellent

We visited the Railway mid week and found to our surprise that the pub has a 50% discount on food. The offer applies Monday to Wednesday. We enjoyed attentive service and the menu was full of pub food classics. The food was well presented and tasty. We will be back soon.

We visited here for lunch. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The pub is dog friendly as well. A good choice of food offered. We ordered Lamb shanks and gammon. When the portions arrived they were huge and tasted gorgeous. Food is excellent value for money. Would highly recommend this pub and will definitely go there again for a meal.

We gave up on the railway despite it being our local. The venue has had a facelift and so it seems has the menu. We have had a couple of meals recently and have been very impressed with the quality of the food. The service is good but not brilliant and my only gripe is that the drinks aren't great and they are comparatively expensive. We were surprised that a double gin cost 2x the price of a single. We asked the young lady serving us why and she seemed a bit unsure about it. So stick to the meals and a softdrink and you really can't go wrong!

Just had a very good family lunch,, 6 of us plus a baby.... Everyone had something different, friendly service and quite quick... All food was lovely,, big portions and great value for money, will deffo be going again x

Went here for a meal with family and it didn’t disappoint ! I had the lasagna and it was the nicest one I’ve ever eaten !! Lovely fresh home cooked food and lovely pub all the staff very friendly and welcoming will definitely be going back

We returned here after hearing it had been taken over and you can tell ! The quality in food has significantly improved , lovely meal and will definitely be returning

We went to the Railway for lunch on a Sunday - food was lovely and well presented. The service was quick and friendly,and the prices were reasonably.

Good local pub close to canal, visited while travelling on my narrowboat which I live aboard full time. Good selection of food and ale and dog friendly

we have been here twice for tea since sat as my mum had been in hosp at christies and we passdd on the way home. lovely home cooked food and eloise was such a lovely helpful member of staff

Visited before in 2017 and the food was good. Not so much now though. Had a steak with the usual, was served with overcooked peas which had lost their colour and were very reminiscent of tinned peas. Served with a salad for some reason, which was undressed and limp.I dont ever want a salad with my steak, unless its a very small bunch of watercress as a garnish. Pretty disappointing tbh.

The meal was lovely very tasty cooked just as I like it the staff were so friendly and very good at there job

First time visit to The Railway, was not disappointed. Met by friendly staff who took our orders. We ordered 9 meals, which all arrived together and were piping hot. The Lasagne was huge, but gorgeous, couldn't eat it all but took a doggy bag home. Most had fish & chips, my husband loved it especially with the home made chips. Couldn't eat a dessert as too full. Will definetly return, had an enjoyable evening.

The place is a good size. Quite lively at the weekends with the usual customers. Really freindly staff.

This is my local and this pub is my marmite. I have a love and not so much hate but dislike relationship with this pub. Great atmosphere when the pub is in full swing and now that they got the pool table should attract more business. Food portion are on the big side for me, I can never finish it. They have my favourite gin flavour. But sometimes they get the pudding wrong. That for me is just not on. Service could be better. It’s the small things that makes a difference and if they can just work on those then I can see their potential to rival Castle Inn.

Late afternoon meal for four adults, two babies. Table was perfect for us, very quiet. Service was friendly and welcoming. Plenty of staff. Meals were all good. Quite expensive we felt and a couple of items weren't available but won't stop us going again.

Four of us went here today, ordered four sandwiches which took the best part of 30 minutes (maybe more, I’d lost the will at this point) to arrive, keeping in mind it was four cold sandwiches, and the place was empty.

We were meeting here for an early evening meal and then going on to a weekend conference. We informed the staff that we would have a party of twelve who need to eat at 4:30 in order to leave at 6:30pm. They did not disappoint! Great ‘pub grub’. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I encourage you to give it a try.

Monday night doesn't offer the best selection of eating opportunities in Congleton but the Railway Inn did offer food, albeit a limited menu.

Arrived at 7:30 on a Friday night & pretty quiet. When we had decided what to order I asked whether the chicken burger was proper breast & she then reeled off what they hadn’t got. No burgers of any type, no fish - apparently been busy all week, really? We already had drinks at this point or would probably have left. There was 3 of us so we ordered 1 steak & ale pie, & 2 scampi. She came back & said only 1 scampi left! So 2 steak pies were had. The food was surprisingly good, proper chips, only a pie top but I am ok with that, lovely, tasty filling. Scampi just average. Not the cheapest either but reasonable. 1 had pudding - a bakewell one with custard, this was also nice. If this place makes it I will be surprised, they need to get the ordering right & cut down on the menu choices. Felt quite sorry for the waitress she was obviously embarrassed. Place also felt a bit drab - Sorry we won’t be back.

Went for a late Sunday lunch today. This used to be a great place, but today it was pretty poor. There were 4 of us and a baby. We firstly ordered drinks from a polite lady. After quite a while I had to chase up the drinks, we received an apology that they had few staff. The drinks eventually arrived and food order taken.

Friendly pub, lovely atmosphere, food absolutely delicious.My partner and i both had braised steak which almost melted in your mouth..We shall be back !!

Today, my husband and i had to BEST sunday roast in all my 59 years, it was beautiful. Absolutely no complaints, excellent staff too. We are going to get all ten membrs of immediate family to come back soon. It was spooo good, you wont be disappointed

Visited with my mum over the weekend. On entering we asked if we could eat. We ordered drinks with who I would say was the manager dressed in black and quite smart. but some young boy took over dressed in ripped jeans and a bit of an attitude. and asked me what I wanted. Not with words but a head gesture. I had a sparkling water, no offer of ice or lemon. We were pointed to our table not shown !!! We sat there and a lovely waitress took our order. We both had gammon and can I say the food was gorgeous and well presented. The plates were cleared away promptly and we were asked if everything was ok. Great service. My only gripe was the attitude boy behind the bar who was most unprofessional and looked extremely untidy in his appearance. The entrance was not clean. Cigarette ends all over the floor !!!! All in all lovely food and I would return.

Came here with friends for a meal. Poor, slow service. Food missing from the order. Staff were quite rude when we questioned the missing items. Food was ok when it came out. Won’t go back which is a shame as I live so close.

We had a meal for a large group, the food came out quickly, was yummy and every meal was right. Service was excellent.

We were a group of 22 people celebrating an 80th birthday. The railway set the tables with table cloths and put covers on the chairs. It looked amazing. The food was lovely, fresh and delicious. I am really impressed with the amount of effort they went to for us, nothing was too much for the lovely staff.

We visited the "Railway Inn" to eat, and were hoping and expecting to have a much better experience . It's had a fairly chequered past after its revamp a few years ago. First impressions on arrival were poor as none of the many tables were set with even the basic items to give you any impression that they wanted to order food or encourage you to stay. The Menu is basic but fine with the usual popular pub food dishes and the girls serving were all helpful and eagerly waiting any clients to hopefully stay and eat.

Visited on Saturday evening with a family party of eight including children, good atmosphere, a couple of items on the menu had sold out but there were good alternatives and the food was well cooked and not too long to wait.

Admittedly, there were a few folks in our group. Even so, several things on the menu that weren’t being served (such as soup of the day, which hasn’t been served since May yet remains on the menu?)

We’ve eaten here a few times, the food is cooked fresh to order so can be waiting a while but well worth it! The food is lovely and well presented but the portion size is too big especially the lasagna and the Sunday dinners can be a little expensive when the extra sausage / mash is added. Puddings are amazing though

large portions, good value delicious food. warm friendly welcome and that includes the welcome for dogs too

Very pleasantly surprised. Great value for money, lovely friendly staff. I had fish and chips, the fish was cooked perfectly. My husband had a delicious steak and my daughter had a huge bowl of tasty pasta. Definitely worth a visit.

Called for lunchtime meal as a result of the welcome we received last week.food was reasonably priced,well cooked and served with a smile. My dog was welcome and given his own bowl.can recommend to all

Greeted with a smile from bar staff made to feel welcome and dog freindly place is spotless would deffinatly recomend a visit

Me and my friend called in today, first time since it reopened the food was lovely chips are amazing. Value for money is fantastic, portions are huge, maybe a little too big. Attentive and friendly staff. Little downside at the waiting time for food but we were advised it would be longer then average due to it all being freshly made, and it was worth the little extra wait. Well done all. Will most certainty be going again.

Been a couple of times now and not impressed at all...very overpriced and not particularly nice. However I understand this has now been sold to a new owner so perhaps things are on the up???

Driest roast dinner available - eat here if you’re looking for a roast dinner without gravy. Walking home dehydrated as a result. No roast potatoes No beef No gravy - Jamie Byram

Went as a family of 4 for a Sunday afternoon meal, food took considerable time to arrive and when it did it was very disappointing, over cooked dry chicken wrapped in burnt bacon (black) which should have come with a ‘creamy tarragon’ sauce but in reality was a watery puddle, over cooked dry gammon undercooked hard jacket potatoes, greasy lasagne. Totally underwhelming. Told the waiter it wasn’t up to scratch halfway through the meal, nobody bothered to come and resolve the problems. I paid the full bill but I won’t ever bother going again. First time I’ve made the effort to post a negative comment but felt its worth saying.

Came here on the 11th, four of us. Decided to go for Lasagna, Steak & Ale, Cottage Pie & Scampi.

We went on Friday night as a party of 6, 5 adults and 1 child. We were seated at the large table at the back by a friendly young lady.

Railway Inn; the previous licensee got it so wrong and I'm not sure the new business is going to do any better.

Excellent Sunday dinner, couldn’t fault it, beef dinner was lovely and so was my sons turkey dinner, veg was very fresh and meat was lovely

We visited for dinner on a Friday night, from our boat on the nearby canal. Slightly apprehensive after reading some negative reviews; ignore them. Yes, the new staff are still finding their feet, but I have rarely met any so welcoming and eager to please. The ambience is pleasant, there is plenty of space at comfortable tables, and everything is spotlessly clean. You can choose whether to sit near very soft music, or where it is inaudible. There were 4 different draught beers, and plenty of food choices. We had, between us, garlic mushroom and prawn cocktail starters, veggie taglietelle with tomato and cheese, gammon, scampi and chicken. All the portions were enormous. I wouldn't recommend a starter as well as main course, unless you have an exceptional appetite. We couldn't manage desserts. Our server was helpful, polite and prompt. She returned at the right intervals to check we were enjoying our food. The prices were reasonable. We noticed they had quiz night on Thursdays, but we had missed it. Highly recommended.

We visited the Railway, under new ownership, but were very disappointed. Many reviews were earlier . Ambiance poor. For a dining pub there were just empty tables! Bar staff were young and very inexperienced . Food starter- not professionally served- amateurish. Main course came on stone cold plates. Chips with the steak were from different batches and different colours (no one else eating - lunch leftovers? ) sauce ordered forgotten. Poor alround - we won’t go back.

Hello all. Just visited The Railway and wow were we amazed. From the fantastic food to the chic decor and oh my the staff, one can't say enough. The food was scrumptious and the drinks were moist and all served by wonderful people with warm, welcoming smiles. My visit was unbelievable... I'LL BE BACK!

A group of friends (eight or so) and I sat drinking one friday night, calm pleasant and the only clients in the place. Despite arriving at 10pm and in the time between arrival and 1045pm collectively spending £75 we were told last orders where called at 1045pm. We asked for another round of drinks (£25) which were served. At 11pm when we asked for a further round of drinks we were refused, upon discussion as to the reason why it was stated that they cant stay open as they have electricity bills to pay!!.

Went for lunch today, the meals were very large but don’t have the soup of the day, today it was vegetable, the cost if this was £3.95 and when it came it was veg soup out of a tin, a rip off and I won’t be ordering this again.

Turned up on the off-chance of a table for three in Good Friday late afternoon, should have been alerted by the lack of diners.

Went here for the first time with some friends. We have lived nearby for YEARS but never went. I was very impressed. The food was outstanding. All homemade. Fresh. Delicious. I cannot wait to go back. The prices were reasonable and the kids loved it. Really was amazing food. Amazing atmosphere and lovely staff.

Sometimes meet friends here for lunch mid range prices cooked fresh large carpark easy access for disabled seating outside in the summer friendly staff lovely food

I could not be more disgusted with their lack of consideration.

Booking made for a family New Years Day meal many weeks ago. 3 phone calls and email to confirm booking, no issues raised. 12 of us arrived, including 2 young children, at 6pm to find a closed sign on the door. Phone not answered. What ever the reason for closure no excuse for not informing us, they had our email and phone no for contact. Avoid this establishment at all costs, we will never return again.

Never been good value for food, but now gone down hill substantially. Staff with attitude and the place was dirty when we visited. Go the castle for a much better experience

Having been last year for a family Christmas get-together, we booked again, what a mistake. My mum had booked well in advance and specified what table we would like. Menu choices chosen and booked in advance.

The food was excellent ,loved the chunky chips ,cooked to perfection ,go a least once a week and it never dissapoints

We came here as a group of around 20 for our annual family Christmas meal recently. We have come here for the last few Christmas', but this year was very disappointing. Upon arrival we found that the tables had been mixed up with another big group and we were met with '80' confetti all over the tables. Apparently we couldn't be swapped so we had to make do with a much smaller space. The night was just mistake after mistake. MOST of the staff were quite apologetic about the numerous mistakes that were made. Desserts came out cold, drinks had to be asked for at least twice, got asked if we wanted sauce half way through our mains, the children's desserts came out a LONG time after ours (after reminding staff twice). The worst was when someone in our group was asked by a Waiter what was on the plate that he was holding!!! Honestly the list is endless and that's only naming a few. The members of staff didn't seem to communicate with each other at all and didn't really seem to care if we were happy or not. Such a shame as members of our family travelled over 4 hours especially for this meal and we paid quite a lot of money and we were let down. Most of us really enjoyed the food and enjoyed each other's company and they were the only positives really. The Manager was made aware of the issues when we paid, but we did feel very disheartened by the whole situation. It's apparent that this place can't cope with a busy restaurant (or don't have enough staff?). Unfortunately, after this we won't be returning again for our annual meal and will be going elsewhere.

This was the first time I've ever been here, and I had to say it was lovely! The food was Gorgeous! So fresh and hot! I think it was all homemade too! Good prices and great sizes. The staff were lovely and friendly and it was a nice atmosphere. The only reason I didn't give The Railway Inn is because I felt the waitress came over way too much to collect plates - as if they had a shortage! She came and took a plate each time one individual had finished. Then kept coming back to collect the children's plates after we said they're still picking?!

It was poor last time I was there but as that was a long time ago I thought I would give it a try. Lunch time menu was limited and my choice of food was let down by the brown lettuce and the coleslaw which was the very cheap catering pack that looks like sick.

Booked table for 1pm for 4 adults, we arrived at 1250 approx, we were served our drinks almost straight away and ordered our food fairly quickly. That's when it all went wrong!Waited over an hour for the first two roast beef dinners to arrive, then had to wait a further 20 minutes for another roast beef dinner and a beef burger!The first two roasts were lovely and the meat was superb. Unfortunately the third roast beef was virtually inedible.It was also extremely noisy in there. Unable to speak to each other without nearly shouting.Will not be revisiting this inn again for Sunday lunch.Luckily we only had to pay for the first two meals and drinks, but even that won't compensate the extremely long wait.

Food was good but not plentiful service good beers were good but value for money but could do with a little more on your plate I had salmon portion was a little small it had no sauce

Have been here a few times for food, it is nice but I would say overpriced. For some reason it always seems to have no customers joining you for food and maybe this is the reason why. Constructive criticism would include to make portion sizes bigger to make it worth the money. However when I came for the 8.95 roast dinner it was lovely and I couldn't fault it! I would like to add that staff did look a bit confused and it seems to me like they do need to improve their customer service skills as a whole. But apart from that, nice place to eat.

Wow what a turn around! This started with so much to offer but at the start did not deliver. 12 months on a change of menu and more home cooking means the meals are fab, tasty and more evidently home made ( the castle inn meanwhile has gone down the pan! ) the staff are great - Reni will teach you French! Try it xxx

Food was absolutely delicious. We had a lovely French waiter (Didn't catch his name.....) who is an incredible credit to the pub. Friendly and chatty!If you want a relaxed and informal get together with friends and family, this is fabulous!

I ordered the chicken Sunday roast and it was stunning! Good portions and lovely homemade food (stuffing was superb!) however, the whole experience was made better by our bar man and waiter Rani. 5* customer service and the best in the business by miles. Thank you Rani for your continued impeccable service, absolute star

We called here last Thursday for evening meal. Initially staff seemed friendly. My husband had steak & ale pie.I had risotto. Both meals had far to much salt in them. When we went to pay at the bar there was a customer complaining about his meal. The bar tender told us the price and shoved a saucer n our direction then focused his attention on a staff member. He didn't ask if our meal was ok or thanks for paying. We both said goodbye and got no response. Quite rude of him we thought. May return for drinks but definitely not food.

well overpriced and portion sizes are small plus pudding at £6.00 or above really has put us off going again--on the up side the pub itself is very attractive and well located for the canal.

Had a great meal here with a few friends couple of months back. Good, wholesome pub food cooked well.Also had a steak the week after and found it of decent quality.Will be returning.

Really nice staff here but ohhhhh! What has happened with the food? 4 adults and 3 children ordered Sunday lunch. When the food came I asked the waiter if there had been an error as it looked as if the adults had been given a child's meal. The waiter looked at the meal and said that he would ask the 'chef?' Came back and said that we had been given an adult roast. I pointed out that there was only half, yes half!, a slice of beef and my wife had a paltry slice of pork with no yorkshire pudding. We were told that this was normal! Really? Well bye bye. Plenty of much better eateries in the local area.

We visited the Railway on Sunday late afternoon/early evening. The restaurant was fairly quiet at that time of day. We placed our order for drinks and food. The drinks were wrong but they offered to correct this on the house. The meals were good. The steak was very tender however we weren't keen on the chips, overcooked. We decided to order desserts. We got fed up of waiting to order so grabbed one of the dessert boards ourselves. Then waited ages for someone to take our order. Eventually got served, desserts were delicious so worth the wait "probably". The staff were pleasant but it seemed disorganised as there were a lot of them in and out of the kitchen while a person who seemed to be in charge spent a long time chatting at the bar. Disappointing as we had eaten there many times before without any problem. We paid at the bar on our way out as we didn't want to wait again for the bill.

We went on spec on Sunday teatime, not busy at all, we were shown to a table then waited for drinks order ...and waited and waited so I went to the bar myself !! Eventually the foreign chap came back when I had half a pint left, took our food order, I had roast beef which was bit chewy swimming in salty packet gravy on mountain of mash, veg and 2 measly roasties, my partner had salmon which was swimming in water from the broccoli , plates cleared , no puddings offered so paid and left. The owner was seen drinking in the bar, maybe he should be a bit more hands on and sort his staff out as it was pretty dire, or maybe he should take a look down the road where competitors are turning punters away and see how it's done.

Had a bad experience with the service a couple of months ago, that completely changed with their employee Renee! Absolutely amazing gentleman! Fantastic customer service and you can tell it comes natural from him! He will be the reason we will be coming back!!!Food was lovely!5***** customer service to Renee!

Visited with family. Although what we got was tasty there wasn't much of it for what they charge. Very few chips with my kebab etc. Pudding menu was very poor with very few choices, paid almost £6 for a bowl of ice cream, which was really only 3 scoops on a saucer. Not sure we'll be there again for a while. Staff very nice though.

The final day of our week cruising the canal and we'd moored up here to be within a short cruise the next morning to take the boat back. Also chose this spot as there were two nearby pubs and one of our party decided this offered the better menu choice.It was around 7pm on a Friday evening when we arrived and whilst they were quite busy at the bar, there were a number of tables available and we were offered a choice of where we'd like to sit.A nice, friendly waitress took our drinks orders though we needed a sample or two of their rather nice real ales before we selected our drinks. A little while later the meals arrived and all were rather good. Whilst I enjoyed a steak and ale pie, the ladies had a chicken dish and our son enjoyed the lasagne.We asked for the desert menus and a different waitress brought us the menus but these didn't have any deserts included. One of the other staff appeared and explained it was her first day and then brought the desert menu over. No harm done and she was most apologetic.Unfortunately there was nothing on the menu that appealed to me but everyone else chose something and were pleased with their selections.Overall a pleasant last meal for our holiday.

We visited for early doors dinner on a Sunday - a notoriously difficult time to find anywhere that serves food - because our friends had a 2 hour journey home & work on Monday. In the past we've struggled because places either just serve Sunday lunch and then close or they have a gap in service until later in the evening. There was a good choice on the menu & everyone had something different for their main. Portion sizes were sensible enough for us to be able to have a pudding. These were very generous and yummy too. We finished with a sharing cheese plate. It was OK but for our cheese munchers lacked imagination - no blue, and a very mild cheddar. However, there was respect for the chutney pot. Overall it was very good and our visitors were suitably fortified for their journey. The staff were brilliant - they were knowledgeable about the menu and chatted while they served us which we really appreciated. Our visitors are looking for a quick return and another visit!

The Railway Inn is in a way a quintessential British pub and restaurant- friendly, laid back and, when we went, a touch eccentric. Neither the menu nor wine list seemed to relate to what was actually available- but the venison was a perfectly acceptable alternative to the lamb, and the Malbec adequately replaced the vanished Pinot Noir. Our French waiter was chatty. He kindly turned down the intrusive music. Overall it was fun and not at all as expensive as some have suggested. We enjoyed ourselves.

Nice food but expensive they had a big massive dog in the restaurant welst people where eatting I wasn't keen on that ider Staff were all nice and polite

Had the light bite menu, more like a under 5 meal, value for money complete rip -off been a couple of times before in the last few months which were good, but standard nowterrible. this will be the last time, we go to this place

We visited this pub when moored on the nearby canal - three people and a dog. All were made welcome, and we enjoyed lunch. The menu is fairly typical pub fare, but good all the same. Beer was from a local micro brewery - Front Row Brewing, and very good.

Family and friends met to begin a weekend of celebrating my nieces weddingThere was a large group of us but it want a problem all our meals were lovely and the ladies in the group also enjoyed a game of no go to which we were successful.A lovely evening e noted by all

We went as a group of 12 for a birthday, three generation's worth. They were very good with the booking and the table was nice and there is a lot of space, so as a group you don't feel that you are annoying everyone else. The food was okay, no more than that. But for the rest I'd agree with a lot of other comments. The staff were nice but it was all a bit chaotic. Service was very slow, although we didn't actually mind as we were chatting. Despite being excruciatingly clear with our orders they still got them wrong. We just went with what we were given.So basically it is okay as a place to eat if you are a group. No more no less. If you were not a group who had a lot to chat about whilst waiting the slow service would be pretty annoying.It was not busy whilst we were there, so the dopey service was not because of this.

We waited ages for our food ,I don't usually mind waiting but it wasn't busy,When the food finally arrived the order was incorrect but we waited that long we just accepted it,we didn't want to wait again!I have never had such a bad meal in my life,it was cold,poor quality,small portionedover priced is an understatement,,,,the staff are very unprofessional Never again

Visited here after the Queens . Found to be serving good beer from a micro brewer all very good. Most of the customers very friendly advising us of other public house's to visit. Although one was very rude to wife at the bar . still very nice place
