The Royal Oak in Worcester

Eldest Daughters birthday ,after being told our table number ,3 or 4 waitresses came to ask if we had ordered drinks ,when they were delivered we chose our food ,2 of us had the carvery ,comparing it to bluebell farm you certainly get a large portion of meat ,but was dry towards end of meal probably shd of gone up for more gravy ,finished our meals and waited for one of the many waitresses to clear our table and ask if we wanted dessert, or another drink, but no one came ,sat for a while then went upto bar to pay before leaving ,good job the carvery is so filling that you don't need dessert, but being a birthday we might have found room my granddaughter would of definitely liked dessert ,it's been a while since we ate there and think it will be a very long while till we visit again x

Called in with family for Carvery was my chosen location for ease of use easy parking and accessible good food, lovely atmosphere. The food was as good as it always is plenty for tasty. You always get plenty of meat then never shy with that and I must say, I liked the new system of calling you up by table rather than the usual queue in most Carvery places well done Oak At Broadwas. I think you’ve got it right I’ve never been disappointed here.

We took my parents out for Sunday lunch and they offered a carvery , it was great , beautifully cooked , great value for money and very generous with the meat ! It was packed , that’s how good it was ! Families, couples , friends , children , a great place for all . A lovely atmosphere with all the doors open as it was so hot so a lovely breeze drifted in . We ordered our drinks then were informed when it was our turn to go up , all very well organised so no large queues . Friendly staff too . I couldn’t fault this place so would definitely recommend for a great Sunday lunch , they’d nailed it !!

2024: HBH First return visit since COVID. Carvery was very good. Chef was on hand to answer my queries regarding allergies. Good choice of vegetables, especially loved the parsnips. Chicken was good, the beef was a little tough for my taste. Overall a great place to eat. 2019: Dropped in for a Friday evening carvery, we did get a table straight away but the pub was very busy so I would recommend booking. Very helpful and knowledgeable re ingredients [dairy allergy], I still had a selection of 5 veggies. Generous with 3 types of meat. Standard Yorkshire puddings. Nice modern pub on the inside of an older renovated country Inn

We came to the Royal oak for their carvery. It was delicious with so much choices and generous portions of meat. Although we were full their puddings were very tempting and delicious. It is worth a stop here. If we had more time would have come back to sample their normal menu as that also looked scrummy!!

Travelling from East Sussex to Bishops Castle, we stopped at The Royal Oak and enjoyed a superb carvery meal. On arrival, we (and our little dog) were welcomed by the friendly staff, given a table close to the carvery helping a less able member of our party. The meal was well presented, freshly made and delicious. We rounded it off with yummy desserts. Well done Royal Oak.

Great carvery, superb food, generous with meat, lovely helpful staff. Definitely drop in here for a superb meal. With driving to.

Superb carvery, we visited with extended family (all of us seniors). We all had the £13.50 two course seniors lunchtime special. Three meats to choose from and an array of freshly cooked vegetables. (Carrots, peas, sweetcorn, cauliflower cheese, swede, roast potatoes, new potatoes, garlic sliced potatoes, cabbage). Good choice of desserts; crumble, profiteroles, blondies or ice-cream.

When we’re in the area, my friend and I always try to call for the fantastic carvery here. We’ve been on a number of occasions now and couldn’t agree more that The Royal Oak is worthy of the ‘ultimate carvery’ title! Our last visit was just as good as the first time, with a very generous serving of tender, melt-in-the-mouth meat (beef and gammon for me, beef for my friend) and a great selection of perfectly cooked vegetables. For the quality and portion sizes, I think the price (£15.95 for Sunday carvery) is extremely reasonable. We’ll definitely be back!

The Royal Oak Broadwas a excellent resturant well trained staff helpful and curtious we have been a couple of times this year and mum likes it very much so as it was her birthday we thought why not and we where not disappointed 4 of had carvery and 3 had off the menu and we where when to go up for carvery as the menu food was ready to come to the table which ment we all ate at the same time

Stopped by on off-chance there would be a table for two & were in luck, just two tables left! We opted for the roast & were not disappointed. Three meat options & another dozen or so vegetable choices! The meat melted in the mouth & the vegetables, including the roasters & cauliflower cheese were perfection! The service, despite a full house was first class; attentive, friendly staff!

Lunchtime slot, food was excellent but service was very poor. Gentleman sitting opposite had the same problems too. Waited for desert menus but never arrived. After 25 mins of waiting I went to the bar and collected myself, another 20 mins passed without any communication from waiting staff. Decided to leave and just pay for the food, spoke to a member of the waiting staff to which my first impression was quite shocked, basically she didn’t want to know claiming they were busy and short staffed. Shocking to say the least.

This is my favourite carvery by far, the meat is always so tender, the pork is my favorite, the veggies are cooked to perfection and all members of staff are outstanding.I can't say enough about this establishment, its a good job I don't live closer. Will be back as soon as I can

We normally love coming here, always great food and good play area for the kids but the service today was terrible. Sat at our table for 30 minutes before I had to ask a waiter to come over, we went to the bar to get drinks ourselves, three tables came in after us and were served before us, asked for water 3 times before someone finally brought it over. When I complained they didn’t seem too bothered, just that the orders had been put in wrong, no apology. The food is always good here but felt like a canteen today, no effort with customer service at all and it’s not a cheap carvery on a Sunday, just trying to fill as many tables as possible, has put me off returning for some time.

Three of us had excellent service from Elliott, we had three courses each for a total of £45. (Drinks extra) The food was very good, & we were sat at a table that we preferred.

As carveries go, great. As service goes, dreadful. Moved our party of 16 from a generous table at one end of the pub to a table where we were so squashed we could barely lift our cutlery to eat. And we’re pretty used to squashing up in our house. Mopping around us, blowing the candles out on our table, one sour-faced member of staff, all before 9.30pm. I know hospitality has been flat out this month and it’s tough. But…it was quiet. Such a shame for our one and only Christmas party.

I had visited the Royal Oak on two previous occasions with friends. I was very impressed with my experiences. I decided to bring my wife for her to also experience a meal at the Royal Oak. We were both delighted with our meal here. The building and the restaurant itself provide a a clean, pleasing environment in which to dine, The dining area reflects the character and period of the building We opted for the Christmas carvery with a dessert to follow. The Carvery was superb. A choice of meats including Turkey, Beef, Pork and Gammon. We both chose the Turkey and received generous cuts. It was cooked to perfection. There was a choice of twelve vegetables including roasted potatoes, onions and parsnips. Also available was a variety of sauces and condiments to garnish the meal. Everything was delicious, well cooked and hot. For dessert my wife had Christmas Pudding and I had the the chocolate and ginger cheese cake. We were both served generous portions and both were again delicious. We found all of the staff to be very friendly and helpful. We were asked a couple of times if everything was okay and though we chose to leave a gap before having our second course the waiting staff didn't forget us and checked later to see if we were ready for our dessert. The final part, the bill was very reasonable for the quality, and quantity, of the food and drink consumed. For me, it was a birthday meal and our lunch here was the highlight of the day.

Booked for an early Saturday evening meal. The pub was busy and the carvery was very popular with our fellow diners. The service throughout was very prompt and friendly with no gaps at any time. We ordered the fish and chips plus the gammon and eggs. For dessert we had the blonde and ice cream as well as the fruit crumble. Good traditional pub food.

We’ve been coming here for everyone’s birthday now for years. I can’t praise the food enough, and the lovely staff. They are friendly, quick to take your orders, and have always been great at letting us decorate the table and take pictures for us despite being busy. It always makes a lovely visit. The prices are incredibly fair, and the Monday 2 for £20 carvery is a steal. I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place deserves the praise. I’m shocked to see a few negative reviews for them to be honest, in all the years I’ve been going I’ve never once experienced anything of the sort! Thanks Royal Oak, keep up the great work.

6 of us booked here and we're looking forward to it as normally the carvery is good. We booked ahead but when we got there and were shown to our table there was already another family there that had to move which was awkward. We were sat in the lower part and it was so tight people were shimmying passed our chairs holding full dinners and we had no space to move. It was far too cramped and uncomfortable. Food - we queued up and a lot of the meet was the ends. I ended up with just pure cuts of fat off the gammon amongst some of my meat. Our meat was going cold on our plates whilst we stood in the queue waiting to add our vegetables and gravy. Normally all of this tastes lovely but it was poor, not cooked the same and bland. Soggy veg and not a nice taste. Unfortunately we've made the decision all 6 of us, that there are probably better places to go to now where we won't be cramped in like sardines unable to move our elbows and have better quality food.

We were crammed in down the bottom, top apparently fully booked when booking 5 days in advance, service was good, food, below av, chef trying to make ends meet, cutting up the last bit of scrappy meat, daughter chose gammon as the joint was fresh, ended up with all poor quality end and fat, not a good experience and over priced across the board, especially for the quality.

I’ve left a bad review for here before but wow it’s fantastic now. Meat was lovely, lots of it and crunchy potatoes rather than soggy. They even had gluten free chocolate fudge cake. We will be back! Great price, really good waiting staff. A well deserved 5 out of 5!

Been coming for years but is not the same service. Food good in parts although no sauces and processed mashed potato. Slow service and had to chase sweets. Hot brownie put into ice cream which melted by the time it arrived at the table. Sadly after many years, one to scrub off our list of restaurants.

We booked a table as it was a Sunday afternoon. This table (28) was in front of the double doors leading to the patio /outside area. I constantly had staff and various members of the public knocking me as they walked past. The friendly staff tried to rearrange the table, which helped greatly. Some of the staff were clueless as to what was going on in the bar/restaurant...id like to say it was organised chaos...but it wasnt even organised! Young children were allowed to run between tables, screaming and shouting, so if its a nice quiet Sunday lunch you want, you wont find it here. Food was excellent, cooked to perfection but wont be returning.

My wife popped in as we were going on holiday, the pub was dog friendly and offered us a warm and friendly welcome, the dogs were offered fresh drinking water and some scraps of roast meats from the carvery! I was so impressed! I had a carvery whereby there were 3 choices of meats and 7 vegetables, all fresh and served with meaty gravy. My wife had fish which was just as good! The sweets were as flavoursome as the mains. What a start to our holiday, I wish this pub was nearer to our home! Well recommended. Well done Everyone!

A fantastic meal - the portions of meat that were carved were huge. I was amazed at the choice of vegetables, all perfectly cooked and delicious. The service was a bit slow, and it wasn't even that busy, but we were welcomed warmly and the...

Greeted at door being asked on way to table what we would like to drink!!!! Strange customer service! Sat at table, time went by, had to go and ask if anyone taking our order! Waitress apologised, she didn’t know what was in pie, told steak,...

Very good experience! Ambience was convivial, very pleasant & the carvery second to none! The service likewise; the staff very well organised & hard working!

We have eaten out quite often over the years in many places up and down the country. We were visiting friends last week and decided to try this pub for a carvery. We are quite discerning and a couple on our party are quite fussy....

There's nothing special about their carvery it's the same as any other pub, just more expensive, Roast potatoes could do with being roasted they were very pale, cauliflower cheese had no taste and whats up with the gravy?

We booked a table for 4 for Sunday lunch. We had to wait to be seated. The bar was very very busy and they got order wrong. After being seated we waited just under an hour to be invited up to the carvery for our...

We have been using The Royal Oak for Sunday lunch for a long time now and have to say that we believe it is the best place for Sunday lunch anywhere. They just do Carveries on a Sunday but at other times do a mixed...

Came here last night for our wedding anniversary ...it was very very busy with only 3 staff out front. We did wait a bit for our drinks to arrive but that was to be expected considering how rushed off their feet they were. The chef...

Great food, good service & most importantly good value for money… Had a very nice homemade pie & my husband had a steak.. all very nice…

We have been coming to this restaurant for years but today was such a shambles. Yes they were busy but if you accept the bookings you should be able to give each diner an acceptable level of service. First time I've seen so many staff...

Went as a big party (at least 20 of us) for the carvery. Absolutely beautiful food, hands down the best carvery I've had. Everything was cooked to perfection. Have been again once since and this is now my go to restaurant for celebrations. The staff...

to be totally honest myself and my wife had the best carvery weve ever eaten. My elderly mother in law was helped to the table and treated like royalty. she had the OAP meal with a pudding, staff were fabulous well worth the travel. We...

My friend and I have eaten here quite a few times now and, without doubt, the carvery is one of the best, maybe THE best. There’s a good choice of meat, with beef, pork and turkey being the usual ones (gammon, too, sometimes) and they’re...

What an amazing place. The food is amazing and plentiful. Cooked to perfection. The staff are on point and friendly. Can't wait to go back!

The food is great but the service was very slow and it toke to long to ask us if we liked our food and If we wanted food

Stumbled across this beautiful place whilst travelling back to north Wales from Worcester. Dropped in on the off chance with no prior knowledge of the place- What a find! The most enjoyable carvery I have ever experienced with wonderful service and kind, considerate staff who...

Royal Oak serves my favourite carvery in Worcestershire. The carvery is generous, delicious and fresh. Others in the group had different dishes which they also enjoyed.

Visited yesterday for a Sunday carvery for 4 of us and although we had been a long time ago and really enjoyed it, the same can't be said for ths visit. The carvery, although fresh, had a very strange taste running all the way through...

Called in today for lunch, the service was very disappointing! We arrived 1.20pm waited at the bar to be served (as the sign said upon entry) but were directed to a table, were a waitress would take our order. Waited 20 mins no service, no...

Visited for the first time but we were disappointed. The female staff are quite rude and not efficient. We both had the carvery but something didn't taste right and I think the pork was off. Veg were lukewarm. It was an ok carvery except for...

Visited today after not hvg been for a while. Last review was a five star!! Told where to sit and lady would be over to take drinks order. Eventually came over- I asked for a medium dry white with soda water. Wine was not cold...

Lovely food! Shame one pint of Guinness is 'overpriced' at £5.80..... London only £4.75 typical. Service was only av

To begin, we have used this restaurant for years and it’s always been impeccable. Delicious, top quality food and service. Today, the food was top notch. However, the staff were not. We had booked a table at 4.30, turned up at 4.25 and told our...

Good food and service but ripped off with cost of drinks. I didn't check the bill until later but was horrified to find a large Pepsi max presume a pint was £4 compared with around £3 in other places. But worse still I'd been charged...

This visit was extremely disappointing. Everything started fine - we were seated and drinks order taken. Despite pre ordering, we then had to wait 45 mins to be told we could go up for the carvery, which felt like it defeated the entire point of...

We've been visiting this place on and off for years. It's set in a lovely quiet village with plenty of free parking. We visited today and everything was perfect. They seem to be a well oiled machine from what we can make out. We opted...

Visited and had a lovely carvery as per usual @Royal Oak. However the waitress staff were extremely rude, I was with my elderly parents, mom struggles to walk and Dad has dementia, my mom asked if we could sit by the window as the table...

We went this Sunday for a family birthday, wow wow wow !! We haven’t visited in a while and it didn’t disappoint, the carvary was amazing with a choice of four different meats and beautiful fresh vegetables and gorgeous potatoes!!! The choices of homemade desserts...

I started having lockdown takeaways for Sunday lunch which blew me away with portion size, fantastically cooked and great value for money. Now they are open for business, I went there a few weeks ago as a large family party and the carvery was awesome!...

What a beautiful place, well worth a visit.. excellent serviice and reasonably priced. The lemon dessert was superb ! The team are all friendly and professional and the land lady / licensee brilliant . A very enjoyable evening on a long trip up North ....

Visited with my wife for the Fish Friday Special. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was of good quality and very tasty. You need to book in advance and don’t just turn up as this is a very poplar pub and restaurant.

The carvery was excellent - so much choice and everything was great. Lots of veg choices too which you don’t always get. Staff were good and affordable prices

Walked in this evening as a family of four and was looking forward to a carvery. I asked the lady who approached us if we could get a table and she screwed her face up like we were an inconvenience, so we left and took...

Went for an evening meal with friends. We were all disappointed in the quality of the food. I ordered a prawn salad. It arrived with the prawns swimming with Marie Rose sauce while the range of salad items very limited. Not a good meal at...

What a lovely pub this is! Really spacious, nice decor and good food. Only thing that lets it down a bit is the service is a tad slow and some staff don’t seem to enjoy working here as very limited customer engagement or smiles which...

Decided to visit for a carvery which I found to be most enjoyable. However, I felt tremendously let down by our puddings, the sundae was full of ice cream and very little else and the lemon meringue was totally inedible due to having the texture...

Delightful traditional country pub, with a charming beer garden. Tasty pub grub, fresh and served in generous portions. Good range of craft ales. Cheerful, welcoming service.

Visited today carvery was amazing was fresh and good selection of veg Service was good a little confusing the way they work but we're very accomodating for a disabled member of the party. Will definitely visit again.

My wife and I made quite a long trip to this pub and decided to return as last time the food was excellent and staff lovely with us. I am very ill and all we wanted was a relaxing meal with good food. We decided...

We love the carvery at this pub so my partner arranged a surprise birthday meal for me with my family. En route my partner called to double check the booking and was told we have a table outside. We can’t sit outside because it’s very...

You might think that carveries are passe, but trying out the “ultmate carvery” at the Royal Oak will change your mind. Everything on offer was cooked to perfection and the choice of vegetables to accompany the very large cuts of meat was incredible. The excellent...

Absolutely terrible service , after taking so long to take order it still came out wrong and I am sad to say the prawn baguette was a total disappointment.

Rude, untrained and ignorant are just some of the words I would use to describe the staff at this restaurant. Run by a bunch of children who spend their time gossiping by the bar rather than serving their customers. Stood there for about 5 minutes...

Great pub, food was amazing, never had so much meat on a Carvery. Staff were also really good. Will definitely be back when next in the area.

Arrived at noon and ordered after 15 minutes. Quite full. Due to ordering a mushroom wellington we were invited to the carvery 12:30 All the food was excellent Will definitely be back

We went to the royal oak with friends for lunch… first impressions was well it looks a beautiful pub.. if I’m honest though the lady on front of house was rude didn’t smile… telling us we were early and to wait at the bar and...

It used to be the best carvery and best desserts, unfortunately it's had a change of ownership and they have changed a winning formula. Don't get me wrong, they have tidied the interior up, window frames are cleaner, seat covers cleaner and the interior has...

For the 5th year in a row we’ve had another great Christmas Day Meal. The food was its usual high quality with the very friendly staff serving.

As always the food was great, but the service was rather slow. People wandering in and around not wearing face masks, we were told " table service only no queueing at the bar" but after a twenty minute wait we had to go to the...

I have been here several times this year and the food is always excellent. I have recommended you to many friends and co workers. A great place to come for good food.

Arrived to find our booking had been put on the wrong day and initially told no tables available but they managed to find us a table outside in the marquee , a bit chilly but fortunately sunny . Free drinks as consolation would have been...

We had a long walk today with some friends and had an excellent meal afterwards at this lovely pub. The food was excellent and all the staff were very friendly. A new lady had started working there today and she had very good customer service...

Having a walk in the area we were looking for a pub lunch and happened to come across the Royal Oak more or less by accident. What a find. The pub is spacious inside as well as having tables outside. The staff are very friendly...

We went to the Royal Oak yesterday for Sunday lunch with family.My son in law didn’t book until Saturday so no surprise when he was told they were very busy and we might have to wait.When he told us where we were going I looked...

We have been to the Royal Oak many times and we have found the staff to be friendly and sociable. The food a delight and always hot. The atmosphere pre Covid was wonderful but now it's quieter, understandably, we know that many places are like...

Such a good experience from the time we entered, the food & service was excellent. Despite being woefully understaffed Sara & Jo worked their socks off, they were so friendly and helpful. Thanks to the chef & his staff for an outstanding carvery. We shall...

Absolutely disgusting attitude on the server called Sara, we witnessed her forcing a table to leave for another booking after making them wait an hour for a desert menu and hot drinks (which they didn't get nor got the opportunity to look), we also got...

Definitely not greeted with a smile, and agree with other reviews commenting on aimless staff despite long waits. Carvery itself was fine, the people brought the score down drastically! Would not return.

We booked a table for 2.30 and we're just left there. At 3.05 we asked if we could go up for our carvery. We were told ,soon. Eventually went up at 3.15 a wait of 45 mins. Food was good but we nearly left to...

Very nice staff. Food was good. Could do with a better choice of beers, but tied to Marston's so no local beers to choose from. We did visit at a quiet time so can't say what the service would be like at peak times. Overall we were satisfied with service we recieved

Went for carvery (only thing they were serving as a Sunday). Shown to our table and drinks order taken and were told that we would be informed when we would be permitted to collect our carvery. 20 minutes later we were informed we could now collect our carvery - no apology or explanation for the delay. Staffcwandering around with little or no purpose. Suffice to say that we did not have our carvery, paid for our drinks and left. Used to be an excellent place to eat with great service. Not anymore!!!

Wonderful pub/restaurant, nice generous size portions. Nice staff, lovely big car park and kids play area too. Clean toilets and COVID aware.

An excellent pub and so glad it is a long way back to normal and not the “new normal.”We both had the carvery, loved it and would recommend it to everyone. We only have two things which could be improved. Please stop adding spices to the swede, it tastes like cinnamon, and it just doesn’t need it and it makes it taste weird. The other thing is cauliflower cheese. The clues are in the title it’s cauliflower in a cheese sauce not cauliflower in a white roux. If you’re going to cut costs by not including cheese just don’t bother, make it plain cauliflower.We will definitely be back and will always recommend it to anyone who asks but it could just make a few tweaks to make it superb.

We attended today to a very busy restaurant and shown to our table without waiting. The food from the carvery was excellent. The value was excellent and the portions were excellent. If I had to make one comment it would be that we were had to ask 5 different members of staff to either place a drinks , desert or get the bill. Staff should be appointed an area to look after. We will be coming again.

Stayed overnight on the 28-6-2021 in our motorhome.The place is spotless from the car park to the toilets and the staff cannot do enough to help you even to the extent of cooking something off menu to accomodate my wifes down syndrome brother.The beers were top class also ( a bit biased because i love Banks beers) The Hunters chicken we had was absolutely fabulous and it was a tough decision to make as the Carvery looked lush.Will most certainly call again(

Went there this evening with my family - 2 adults and 3 kids, we all cleared our plates! 16oz rump steak, medium rare was cooked perfectly! We will definitely be going again!

Worth £12:95? No More like £8:95 Seemed a bit like organised chaos. Food was nice though. We had a quiet table, it was busier in other areas.

Absolutely shocking service. Pretty much ignored whilst sat in the garden, drinks order forgotten. Staff clearly don’t care and all look miserable. Won’t step foot in the place again.

Our first visit to the Royal Oak was disappointing. The staff gave the impression that we were inconveniencing them. We had to complete a "legal form" to be able to eat, due to covid obviously. But they already had our address and telephone number. We were hidden away in a cold corner which had damaged chairs and no heating, music or decorations. The staff served us (due to covid) + gave us a good portion of meat + vegetables and the food was actually OK. My daughter hadn't even finished eating + they'd bought the dessert menu over + were taking the order! My husband ordered a dessert which was nothing like he ordered when it arrived + I probably would have had a dessert if I hadn't been so rushed. We then had to ask for the bill. Despite the carvery being edible I shall not give my custom again, where there is so many others to support in the area. Very disappointed when you've spent over £100 for lunch.

Me and a group of my friends visited on the 27th of October. When greeted at the door we was told they couldn’t find our reservation that had been made over there Facebook page. We showed the message and there reply of a confirmation and they made a big fuss and unwillingly found us a table (Strange as the restaurant was basically empty and remained empty the whole time we was was there from 6:30-9). We was placed right by the door in the corner of the room. When the male waiter came to take our order we was given one word answers and rude reply’s. One of us ordered a j20 and lemonade mixed together.. when it arrived by the manager it came as two drinks and had not been mixed, we asked if she could take it back and mix it together in a glass. She literally picked up one of the drinks and poured it into the other glass spilling some on the table and then made a statement of I’ll just leave you this here thus leaving the two drinks there defeating the point that we asked if she could go and take it back and evenly mix it in one glass. Service was really slow and when asking for extra utensils or asking for the dessert menu the waiter would then continue his tasks he was doing then eventually give us what we had asked for 10 minutes later. This happened a handful of times. As someone who works in customer service I was truly shocked. There was no care in anything they did there which is a shame because the food was lovely! Will not be returning.

we arrived a the Royal oak for my wife's birthday we had a fabulous.time great food, welcome, and service all at a great price A++++

After arriving we were asked to wait to be seated which took 15 mins- not a good start. After sitting, basically in a corner, it took a further 25 minutes to get a drink and told we could grab food. Seems they forgotten us!When we finally got to grab roast, the chef was lovely and friendly, generous with portions and the food was fantastic for a carvery! Hot, fresh and nice! Some positive on a bleak time so far After finishing, we waited a further 30 minutes to be cleared and to ask for a bill; which was then bought over 15 minutes later. Free coffee was offered but not what we were looking for unfortunately. We struggled to see how the service was so void, they were not busy, probably 15 tables in and it just was a very unnecessary and poor experience. Probably won’t return which is a shame as the food was good.

Stayed overnight in our motorhome. A very nice pub, with an excellent carvery. Very friendly, professional staff who were very welcoming.
