A great experience as always, some family members were participating in dry January so we're very impressed with the ranges of alcohol free drinks, they tried the old mout 0% and also the Stella 0%, all meal were enjoyed and left all with full bellies. We shall definitely continue visiting.

Terrible service, discourteous supervisor. And not all the food was available for the carvery and only half the meat etc condiment section was empty. Had to wait nine minutes for gravy, while standing in a queue with other people.. When I spoke to the supervisor about the lack of supervision, she just said yes, I know🤦♂️ No apologies, nothing. The food was tasty, but I wouldn’t go back again. Poor quality carvery, very bad service.

Terrible service. Slow uninterested supervisor. Poor selection of meat and food on the carvery and almost zero condiments. When I complained to the supervisor, she was totally uninterested.

Easily booked online for a table at The Sailmaker this evening. We ordered using the QR code on the table which was easy to do and our drinks and carvery vouchers arrived quickly after ordering. There was a short wait for the server to come back to the counter but there was a good selection of meat (gammon, beef and turkey) and sides (peas, carrots, sprouts, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, parsnips and potato dauphinoise). I was a greedy b****h and my plate was piled high with a selection of the above, plus extra pigs in blankets and 3 Yorkshire puds 😋🐖🐖 It was all absolutely delicious smothered in gravy with horseradish for my beef and cranberry sauce for my turkey. I didn't quite have room for the last Yorkshire and a bit of mash and a member of staff kindly gave me a couple of paper bags to take my leftovers home to my appreciative mutts 😃 Thank you, Sailmaker ... I'll be back next time my carvery itch needs scratching!

I personally had a good meal. One person in our party had the carvery, which was a bit dry, but I did think this was a silly choice to go for on a Monday evening. Has the meat been kept warm for a while. Carvery is more of a sunday lunch option when there is a higher turnover

Good good, loads of food, good Yorkshire pudding. The meat was very nice. Nice roast love it. Georgia lovely young lady. I asked for a bigger piece of pork crashing She said ok I then. Then I asked for her name, Later after I finished my meal. I said I would write a review she said Thank you. That would be lovely. Very helpful, very nice, lovely manner about her.

Absolutely awful display on the carvery it looked grubby .

Staff keep you waiting and by far the worst carvery I have ever been to. The meat had clearly been sat there for some time, the beef was as dry as my nans cracked heels and the gammon was as cremated as my childhood dog, to be fair they were probably cooked around the same time. The roast potatoes were soggy and undercooked,the best part of my visit was when we left.

Absolutely disgusted to find a 1.5cm lump of stone pebble in my vegetarian chilli. Hardly got an apology More a "we buy this in" I could of broken a tooth as I bit down on it or choked One thing to overlook the uncleared and sticky tables but another entirely to find a lump of rock in your food. Tried to fob me off that it was a piece of hard veg. Errrr no it s a piece of stone Horrendous experience Wont be eating out again for a long time

The most awful roast I have had. The beef tasted like corned beef don't know why so would appreciate confirmation as to why. The gammon was very salty & sloppy texture. No greens only peas. Roasts ok but Yorkshire although massive was so tough I couldn't cut it. Won't be returning

This pub has a real opportunity to impress. It's in a location close to several leisure facilities, including the ice rink, which is well attended for weekend matches. The food is ok, but the service is nothing short of appalling. We waited well over 20 minutes for a drink at the bar, and it wasn't even that busy. Although admittedly it was 7pm and the ice hockey had just finished. The bar and waiting staff look bored and disinterested. They were in no hurry to serve people who'd clearly been there for some time. Having said that it's clear the pub is massively understaffed at busy times, so you can probably understand the staff's frustrations. We've been using this pub for several years, and the service has never been great. Now it's almost unusable. We even noticed a family of 2 adults and 3 children who arrived, were told to wait at the bar for their table, and then left after 20 minutes as not one member of staff had been to see them, or offered them drinks. Best avoided sadly, as it's in a good location and should be able to cope on a fairly busy evening.

Popped in here at lunchtime to see if we could grab a table and we are so glad we did. 2 menus £7.95 lunch or 2 for £20 which is Monday to Saturday Lunchtime and Monday to Thursday evenings(photos uploaded) You can also choose from the main menu if you want a larger version but ours were fantastic value. I had the beef Lasagne very tasty and my friend the Roast beef both were excellent. We will be back! The house Merlot is great and a snip at just over £7 for a large glass. The Doombar was kept very well.

We were made welcome and the restaurant gave the impression of high standards, with nice features, well maintained decor and clean in appearance. Having made a visit on a recommendation, we were anticipating a reasonably enjoyable meal. The starters were enjoyable, the crispy prawns and soup of the day were delicious and served with warm bread and French butter. The pork belly was enjoyable and the presentation was very good. However the beer battered cod was a huge let down. It looked great, with crispy batter, and served with a huge portion of chips, but the fish had a weird heavy dense texture reminiscent of Spanish salted cod (it wasn't)- and was very disappointing. The chocolate brownie and the waffle dessert helped make up the disappointment.

The chicken roast was excellent and a good portion without being too big. The dessert was awful - pistachio cheesecake - horrible texture and no flavour. I couldn't eat it and told the waitress - I was still charged full price! It was not busy when we were there but service was very slow!
