The Salwey Arms in Shropshire

What a god forbidden, cold, uninviting, unwelcoming, miserable establishment to come for a drink. Does this place have a death wish or what ……… Who would walk through the doors twice? And overpriced to boot.

Very disappointing. Have been here many times before and really enjoyed. Unfortunately on this occasion although the food was very good the pub was freezing cold. Not comfortable to sit in a place eating when you feel cold. The food is very good but not cheap so a bit of warmth is not much to ask for.

Had a lovely meal in this pub while staying at the nearby Travelodge. Staff were friendly and there is a nice atmosphere. A bonus for us as well as good food it is dog friendly so our Golden Retriever was with us. Would have been excellent, but small issue over Scottish currency.

We had booked at another establishment in Ludlow but unfortunately they had kitchen problems and were unable to serve food. It was the first day of the Ludlow Food Festival so all decent places in town were fully booked. The Salwey Arms was the best alternative in the circumstances. We popped in to have a look round and possibly book a table later in the evening. We were stopped just inside the front door by an over zealous member of staff who initially thrust a menu into our hands but promptly removed it when we explained the situation and proceeded to book a table for us. We arrived for our booking. The person who greeted us (not the one who made the booking) seemed startled by our sudden appearance, checked the bookings sheet, then darted away muttering that they may not have a table ready for us. We were shown into a large, bleak, cold, empty side room, given menus and left alone. After around 20 minutes, my husband went into the bar to look for a member of staff and order drinks. They were eventually delivered and our order taken, at which point we were told that there would be a wait for the food because they had not expected to be busy that night. About 45 minutes later, when we had decided to leave, partly because the room was so cold and because there was no sign of any food - one sausage and mash, one chicken breast and two fish and chips - my husband again went to the bar to see what was happening. Shortly after the food arrived, with apologies for the delay. It was an hour after we had arrived. The food was okay but nothing special. My small portion of chicken breast (more like poussin) was delicious and perfectly cooked. However, the green beans were so al dente they were raw and impossible to eat. Four main courses, two glasses of pinot grigio, a pint of beer and a glass of water cost £90! We were glad to leave and will not go back. My mixed feelings are because I genuinely don't know if the staff are indifferent, careless, ill trained, or stressed, maybe all of those things. It was certainly not a warm, happy atmosphere yet at times they did seem to genuinely try. They did seem completely overwhelmed even in the afternoon when there were very few customers.

Dinner out with family while on holiday in Ludlow. Beautiful menu with (eventually) three tasty meals and drinks. Service wasn't brilliant and many errors made but the food was delicious, so that made up for the silly mistakes this Restaurant made. Sadly this Restaurant will only serve what is on the menu and won't adjust food to your liking. My son just asked if he could have 3 plain sausages instead of the variety of a mix sausage with the dish but was told he couldn't order that as the trio of sausages and mash is a standard dish and cannot be changed. How ridiculous!!! Yet the kids menu, offered a similar dish exactly the same but cannot to be made into a larger for an adult portion!!! Do check your bill at the end of your meal as we had been charged for pints of drinks when we only ordered halves. Lovely place as a one off but sadly won't be going again. Shame as we had been recommended to go!!

Were a Party of 4, Myself surrounded by 3 Ladies my Wife, Her Mum & Sister. Some sanity prevailed as we had my 6 Year Old CockaPoo, Ernie! Having done some Research on Trip Adviser the Salwey Arms was a 10 minute walk from our Holiday Cottage. We had an Excellent Evg Meal, all the Dishes were Tasty, Well priced & the Portions were Generous & the Staff were Bubbly & Professional.

What a lovely evening, excellent service and a great meal -sea bass fillets were the best I’ve had in England for a long time -great salad a a side.

Standard food. Even though the restaurant had many empty tables we were sat in a back bar with no atmosphere and view of the garage. Food was OK, but could cook better at home. Forgot vital element on one of the courses. Wouldn't return.

Drinks order taken, by mature waitress, told there wasn’t enough decaffeinated coffee for us; then there was. 15 minutes later food order taken, same waitress, grumbled when we wanted poached eggs & no black pudding with the full English. Told the kitchen won’t like it. The wait for food was so long we asked when it would arrive. It was served one hour after we’d entered the pub. I asked a young waitress for a glass of water while my friend was still eating. She went away & was sent back saying she’d clear the table then bring the water. We requested the water as we’d not finished eating. After seeking advice the glass of water arrived. I felt sorry for her as she had been instructed in what to say to us. At least one other party left the room without a cooked breakfast and we could hear other diners asking about their food. I appreciate the food is freshly cooked to order but one hour and rude service is not worth the wait.

Visited for Sunday lunch whilst staying nearby. We had the Sunday lunch and a dessert each. Could not fault the food. In fact, the Sunday dinner was probably one of the best we've had for a long time. Desserts were a little on the expensive side but absolutely delicious. As another reviewer has said, we did have to wait for service. Main meals came promptly but after they brought the dessert menu we had to wait a long time until anyone came to take the order and also had to wait to pay. Would 100% return though. Would recommend the local cider they serve!

Went here yesterday for a family meal. The food was nice. But the service was awful. So slow, we had to chase a few times to get staff to come to our table, they were just gathered by the bar chatting. The atmosphere was flat as well. Nice environment but absolutely no spark.

Dropped in without booking in Easter Sunday Morning on the off chance of a hearty Full English Breakfast and a break in our journey. Chef was preparing for the Easter Sunday Lunch rush but still cooked as an amazing breakfast where every ingredient was tasty and the whole thing went down an absolute treat. Thank you Chef and staff at Salwey Arms, we will be dropping in again. Highly recommended as we’ve eaten in the evening there as well and the atmosphere is fantastic

We three arrived about 12.20 and ordered, from the bar menu, 2 steak sandwiches and one ploughmans at 12.40. By 1.20, with no sign of our order, we enquired at the bar and were surprised to see our order ticket being retrieved from the floor. Our order arrived about 10 minutes later and the 'minute steak' could not be cut with a knife nor chewed. It was returned and cheese sandwiches supplied. No charge was made for the steak. While waiting this long the discomfort caused by the hard seated upright backed chairs became even more noticeable. Recommendation. Avoid the Salwey Arms unless you ar seeking Brisith Pub food and service of yesteryear.

Lovely Staff,Food excellant nice and fresh and hot.We couldn 't manage dessert as we were too fool.I can definately recomend it. Next visit will be a Sunday when they serve Sunday lunch all day.

Outstanding customer service and the food was delicious as always. Had the Sunday roast combo followed by there cider and apple crumble 😋👍nom nom nom Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

We were looking for a local venue to host a special 60th birthday anniversary. The Salwey being local, gluten free friendly and willing to accommodate us (30+) was the perfect choice! We had a specially arranged buffet full English breakfast, tea and coffee and it was perfect for us. Can’t fault the food or service we received. The staff went above and beyond to ensure all our dietary requirements were met before hand.

We absolutely love the food and friendly staff at the Salwey arms . The food is always prepared to a very high standard and is a lovely place to dine .

Well what has happened to The Salwey attentive, kind staff and good food within the last couple of months ? Shame on you! As part of a hardworking NHS team The Salway was the preferred choice for our Christmas meal 2023, after having a lovely meal and ladies night out back in September. No one hesitated to agree to attend again even though they are certainly not the cheapest in and around Ludlow. There was 2 menus on offer - Christmas menu and Winter menu. To ensure they could accommodate 9 people in the middle of December the ladies offered to submit their choices beforehand. This was our intention to make things easier for 'chef' to ensure all ingredients were available and for us not to be disappointed with none available items on the evening. On the evening of the meal the table was for 7 as two of the team were unwell. Surely even NHS frontline staff can be allowed to be ill ? But not according to The Salwey. The Salwey were told on entry and before the time of the booked table that there was 2 people missing from the party. So to make up for it, a stranger was escorted to our table and sat with us for 20 minutes before Salwey staff realised they had put them with the wrong Christmas party. We even had to share our Christmas cracker with her as that was the only additional festive thing on the table. We should have known that this was going to be a disaster. From then on, starters that were not soup were just about luke warm. A vegan was given a venison shepherd pie, to be then quickly whipped away and tried to deny that they had been notified that the person was Vegan .Turkey dinners were just about warm with undercooked vegetables. Belly pork tasted nothing like it did when on the menu in September and desserts were even smaller than the last visit. We waited a while to pay for our meal as the other party were paying and we could overhear them complaining about items they had been served. Feeling disappointment and underwhelmed but not wanting to cause additional fuss, we just wanted to pay and put this down to a bad experience. When we went to pay we were met by the member of staff stating we had to pay either as an individual or collectively for the 2 missing people in our party as well !! This being the 2 NHS staff too unwell with Covid to attend, but always putting the health and care of others first in everything they do. This also includes not attending social events where the conclusion could have ended as a spoilt Christmas for many including staff at The Salwey by becoming unwell. So Scrooge Salwey - you took our money, up to £40 each, for a disappointing evening that only comes once a year. You served us warm not hot food and wanted to charge us even more. Its been a memorable experience for all the wrong reasons and one we will not be wanting to repeat by visiting The Salway Arms again.

The atmosphere was good but unfortunately the food and service were poor. Met some friends for lunch on a Monday. We waited half an hour before anyone offered to take our order. We asked for another couple of minutes but were left another 30 minutes. The food was poor. Overcooked salmon. The Woodburner was smoking next to us. I won’t be returning or recommending unfortunately

Went to the Salwey with family for our three course Christmas meal as our usual venue was fully booked. They did eventually light the fire which we were sat next to so that was nice as it was a little chilly but very sparse on any decoration for Christmas! Our food wasn't great for the price we paid at all. Two of us ordered the Christmas Turkey dinner. It came out cold piled on the largest serving of red cabbage with roast potatoes so hard and obviously preheated to oblivion we couldn't even cut through them and covered all over in a thick salty gravy. The vegetable side had no consistency, overcooked and bland and strangely balsamic reduction on nearly every plate. The brownie for pud was more a cake, cheesecake was more a jelly and wobbly and the ice cream had no flavour. On a plus, the beers were great and lovely chips. Should have stuck with that! Will not be returning. Shame

The food was absolutely divine, and the staff were so delightful and lovely, we happened to find this restaurant when staying in the Travelodge next door. They were so kind in accommodating us at the last minute.

Just come back from a family Sunday lunch. It was the first time I’d eaten here & with apologies, I imagine it will be my last. Perhaps it was being seated next to an unlit log burner and feeling a bit cold (it wasn’t freezing inside but it really wasn’t that warm either) & right next to a speaker playing tinny pop & with a framed ‘live laugh love etc’ print to my left that’s made me a bit grumpy. But quite honestly, the whole experience was underwhelming. They were fully booked and couldn’t move us - fair enough. They did have quite a few staff on but service was very slow. The leek and potato soup both my Mum & I had was heavy on leeks and pretty indifferent. My beyond burger wasn’t great - not dreadful but lacking any cheese, onion or pickles which would have made it more interesting - at £15 there should have been more than burger, one leaf of lettuce and a tomato slice. The roast dinners the others had was apparently nice (but gravy v salty) but only came with 3 smallish roast potatoes. My sister asked for some additional which came pretty quickly on a small plate. We were charged £6 for the plate of additional potatoes. When my mother queried this, she was told it was standard. However the waitress came back to us before we left and said we shouldn’t have been charged and gave my Mum £3 coins. If we shouldn’t have been charged, why only refund half the cost? All in, I wasn’t blown away at all. It wasn’t cheap and there are many other local options which are good.

We travelled to Ludlow with another couple (the men were singing in a Concert that night). We had booked two rooms in a large central Ludlow hotel. On arrival, we were told that only one room was available. After some embarrassment, we booked a room in The Salwey Arms. Despite it being a 4+miles drive out of town, we were given the last room available. We had a great welcome, the room was fine, nicely warm, on a bitterly cold night. Breakfast was superb, only one member of staff on duty. It was great to have our breakfast choices served at the table. Often breakfast is a scramble to get to the toaster, pour your orange juice and tea/coffee yourself. This was great, thank you Salwey Arms - a nicely decorated and current establishment. Saved us sleeping in our car !!

Lovely evening here last night we ate in the cosy bar food and service spot on! Wine list good food not overpriced a very relaxing evening with friends

Booked a table for two Sunday lunch, unfortunately we were put where there were dogs, huge dogs. I really don’t think they should be allowed where food is being served. One dog kept coming by my mom and she was very uncomfortable. One dog managed to get under our table too. Food wasn’t really amazing either, I think the roasties had been re heated or even from a previous day, awful. Can’t say we’ll be returning, sadly.

Once again a lovely meal with great service. Very friendly and polite gentleman behind the bar. Unfortunately witnessed a number of people being extremely rude to serving staff. If you want good service be nice to hospitality staff. This place does a great job. Always will return.

Went here for Sunday Lunch,to celebrate a Birthday,very disappointed the roast potatoes were rock hard,almost inedible,seemed like yesterday’s re heated,then hidden under the beef,with a wet Yorkshire pudding,I complained but no response !! looking at recent reviews this has been an ongoing problem,this appears to be bad management ,we will not return.

We booked for dinner on Friday evening. The roasted fennel with my pork dish was as tough as old boot. My wife found her chicken dish to be very salty. Maybe the apprentice was in charge of the kitchen that evening? Fennel needs about 20 minutes and is usually very tasty. The staff looked as happy as a wet weekend, and studiously avoided eye contact. The only saving grace is that I am coeliac and there were several dishes marked gluten free, so if you have that dietary requirement, there don't seem to be many other options for dining in the area.

First time visit. I think first impressions are extremely important..... We'd booked for breakfast, a birthday treat. We were left very disappointed. On arrival we had to wait too long to be greeted. Eventually someone came. I smiled, said hello and informed the lady we had booked. She wasn't welcoming. She then mistook us for someone else (who was late) and we didnt know what the hell was going on! The lady was curt and I felt embarrassed. The confusion didn't need to happen had she just bothered to ask us our names. Once sorted, she seated us and asked what we wanted to drink. She went off and made the coffees. When she returned with the drinks, she then took our breakfast order. The waitress was the only member of staff front of house and had 2 tables occupied (ours and a family of 4) It was very quiet in there. I'm presuming she was just having a bad day? As we were honestly made to feel that it was all too much trouble. By the time the food arrived, we'd finished our coffees. We weren't offered another, nor were we checked on. The lack of customer service here has overshadowed just how lovely the food was. The food was good, but we would not return.

So disappointed having read the reviews I expected a really good Sunday lunch. We ate fairly early so there shouldn’t be any reason why the Yorkshire puddings should have been so dry, totally overdone. I would have preferred the beef to be pink, it seems a shame to have a great joint of meat and not serve it at its best. We were served a dish of mixed vegetables, mostly cabbage that was extremely crunchy, leeks overcooked and a very few carrots, I don’t think they had been seasoned, we had to add far too much salt at the table. There was a large serving of cauliflower cheese as well, I don’t happen to like cheese but I suppose that’s my misfortune. The beef, in the modern chefy way was piled on top of the roast potatoes, the result was that any crunch there was had been lost. My husband tells me it’s my fault because I can cook a pretty decent roast dinner, I really like a day off occasionally and to enjoy a professionally cooked meal. Such a shame I didn’t.

Located on the main A49 in Woofferton this is a gem of a pub, food is great including breakfast the pub is lovely the staff are pleasant and friendly

Fantastic food as always here. Great service. Food arrived quickly and excellent quality as always.

Very disappointing. We visited on a Sunday evening & only the Sunday dinner menu was available. This included only 2 meats, one of which they had run out of by 7pm, which left a very limited choice. 3 of us chose the pork, very dry & tasted like it had been cooked hours ago, I chose the salmon - very dry & unappetising. One member of staff was brusque & appeared quite harassed. They also stopped serving drinks at 9:30 meaning we had to cut short our evening. This is not a cheap restaurant and it definitely does not live up to expectations. We will not be returning

Sorry to say the service was very poor ..we go very often to have lunch as the food is very good .. but on 2 acasions the service was poor .the Sunday evening .Head of staff she was very rude ..we was almost shoved on the table and left there for 10 min s . I had to go the bar my self ...poor qwontaty of meat or fish not good value for money...

We visit as an extended family of 15 once a year and it’s always a fun, relaxing afternoon. With good food and service. Very un-fussy, but with quality at heart. We had several roasts with great portion sizes and wonderful cauliflower cheese. The waffle puddings were universally popular and the three ale was first rate.

Great food and good service. Restaurant was quite quiet but still had a lovely atmosphere. Recommended

Really substantial and great value food served here. Conscientious staff and great beer! Couldn’t fault it.

Published opening hours are incorrect - not open untul 22:00 on Sunday . Arrived at 20:30 on 30/7/23 to be curtly told they we closed. Please put correct opening hours on the website.

Late lunch before heading into Ludlow for the Nile Rogers & Chic concert at Ludlow Castle. Great food, friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. Prawns Pil Pil were scrummy, the crispy belly pork was delicious and the pint of Wye Valley was perfect. I could...

Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, food is amazing. You can tell a lot of care and thought goes into the cooking.

This was. Our 3rd visit such a lovely place staff are friendly and helpful rooms stylish and comfortable. Food excellent truly the best breakfast I have ever had .On arrival young man was so welcoming and offered to carry bags to room...sorry didn't ask his...

We had a really nice lunch here and met friends for coffee on the way back. My husband is currently disabled after a stroke and the staff were very helpful.

Lovely room, lovely breakfast, slightly out of Ludlow but not an issue if you drive, Benefit of this being a fairer price, we would stay again definitely, thank you for the hospitality!

The food and the service were both excellent. The problem arose when we had the bill. £37.50 for two Aperol Spritz ! Apparently they make this by adding a measure of Aperol to a small bottle of Prosecco The Prosecco being £10 per bottle and...

We were on our way back from a few days away in Cardiff and came across the lovely pub, the service and food were first class, I had the Garlic prawns, with my partner having the the whitebait in chilli and lemon both were delicious,...

Managed to get Sunday lunch on a Bank Holiday Sunday, I can see why they were not fully booked. Really poor amount of food for the price. Looked better if you had beef because of giant Yorkshire pudding, but the belly pork we had was...

Meal. Service was slow, indifferent and not worth waiting for. Food was poor, over cooked, soft veg and re heated roast potatoes. Nut roast lacked any nuts. Wouldn't have the merit it was nasty and sharp. Portion size not great. Shan't be visiting again.

We had booked for a small family meal to mark a special occasion. We were bowled over by the quality of the food and attention to our needs. Thank you Salwey Arms. you should be packed out every day!

We have visited the Salwey Arms Hotel for a few years when taking a holiday in the area. I would like to write these few comments as I feel that the standards have noticeably declined with regards to both food and service. We had evening...

Beef Sunday roast at £15.95 was cold and the beef was very chewy. Size of meal was good but meal and service was poor. Land lady was rude to her staff. Sorry won’t be going back.

We stayed on a Tuesday evening as a stopover on the way to Ludlow and we were not disappointed-the room was spacious and very comfortable and we had a great nights sleep. We ate in the relaxing dining/bar area and the food was superb-in fact...

Came for Sunday lunch. Soulless atmosphere, £7.95 for starter of 3 mini defrosted spring roll and then £14.95 for roast pork; 2 slices that were half fat, only 2 roast potatoes and undercooked vegetables. Lovely gravy. Won’t be returning.

My wife and I stopped off here for a quick bite of lunch recently, and we're glad we did. We had a glass of wine, half a pint of excellent Ludlow Gold, and shared a sandwich and bowl of chunky chips. Everything was good/very good,...

As always a superb meal at the Salway Arms. Lovely food, great staff and lovely surroundings. Cant wait to return this summer hopefully the weather will be good to enjoy the lovely outside seating area.

We were staying across the road at the Travelodge & I'd read reviews ahead of travelling. I had the fish & chips and my husband had the Duo of Pork. Both were absolutely delicious. The food was beautifully presented and full of flavour. The staff...

Delicious Mothering Sunday Roast Dinner! There was 12 of us in total, nothing was too much trouble. Staff were great and the food was fabulous! We will definitely be back when we visit the area again.

This is my most favourite place on a Sunday to stop for Roast. It's literally the best around! food is always amazing and the staff are extremely welcoming. Today we came as family of 7. 4 adults 2 children and a toddler. Our food &...

The food is great but the staff need to pay more attention to orders. My vegetarian friend was given a ham sandwich instead of cheese and her coffee was complete forgotten. The lady serving the food had hair that was loose and should have been...

Having stayed at the nearby Travelodge on previous occasions when we often ate at the Salwey Arms and enjoyed the food, we decided to treat ourselves to a three night stay there. However, on reflection, the facilities at the Travelodge were far superior in that...

Stopped in for dinner on our way between Chester and Hereford. Good choice of beers, nice cosy setting. We were made to feel welcome. Thoroughly enjoyed our roasts, and the little one was very grateful for her Yorkie pud! An unexpected roadside treat.

popped in for breakfast, I can honestly say it was the best veggie breakfast Ive ever had, the lady that served us was lovely as was Stanley the Doodle. Look forward to returning soon.

This is the 4th time we have visited this pub and we decided to have a meal and what a great meal it was the size of the portions were enough for 2 all home cooked and beautifully presented The staff were brilliant so friendly...

One of the best meals we've had in and around Ludlow, having lived in and around most of my life and never actually been to The Salwey, which I wholly now regret. 2 of the 4 had the beef and said it was the best...

We stopped at this restaurant on the way out of town. The service was impeccable. We ordered the Fish and chips and the Chicken and Bacon sandwich respectively with adult beverages. The service was great and the food was also great. I would recommend.

Had an unbeatable Sunday dinner in a busy and efficient pub. The roast beef was excellent as was the stuffed chicken. Cauliflower cheese a lovely addition. Apple crumble with custard or ice cream for desert. Faultless.

We very much enjoyed two visits to the Salwey Arms this week. We found the staff friendly and good at their job on both occasions. The atmosphere was very friendly in the rooms and we were made welcome with our Blue Roan Cocker and Loki...

Visited on Bank Holiday weekend Sunday. Room was acceptable (Severn) but no view at all, well if you like roof views, it's right up your street! No water in the rooms, otherwise OK. Our biggest issue was the woman in charge?? Dressed in black with...

Sunday Breakfast with family, normally a go to for breakfast near Ludlow. However the restaurant was very cold and when ordering breakfast a few changes to the full English breakfast was said to annoy the chef. Then when the breakfasts arrived they weren't as they...

Do you really like your hamburger bun served on a hefty inch-thick slab of wood? And would you prefer your chips inserted irretrievably in a miniature version of a chip-frying basket? If so, the Salwey Arms is your kind of pub/restaurant, and you have never...

I haven't been since pre covid, so as a first visit back for my mother's birthday it absolutely didn't disappoint. The chicken liver parfait starter went down very well, as did the duck croquettes. I had the prawns which were lovely, if I was being...

Exellent meal at the Salway arms once again. Such a friendly well run pub. How anyone complains about this place is beyond me. I cant fault it . This is our place to go for an evening away.

Popped in for lunch after a walk. Easy to find, big car park, welcoming staff. Spotless facilities, buzzing atmosphere, even in January. Food and local cider were outstanding. Lots of vegan options. Dog friendly.

Myself and family came to eat here today. The staff were the rudest staff I have ever come across. They kept us waiting ages to be seated, with our two little children and puppy, they then kept us waiting an incredibly long time before taking...

Woohoo, Superb Service, Delicious Food and lovely surroundings! Well done to The Fantastic Team at The Salwey Arms. Our food was excellent, I am not a Vegan and tried the Beyond Burger which was really tasty and the thick cut chips were Top Dollar and...

Nice old building tastefully decorated. Nice food. Nice pint. Pleasant, friendly staff. Had a nice evening meal. Booking essential judging by the number of walk ins they turned away on a thursday night.

We only ate dinner and did not stay , The menu was good and the service very willing (albeit this was a busy Friday night so stretched at timea). The pub has been well made over I assume by an interior decorator and I suspect...

Stopped off on the way home. Really nice Sunday dinner. Staff were very accommodating, got us a table quite late on a Sunday evening.

The choices are more limited than some on a Sunday but the Sunday roast was excellent, and there were two tasty vegetarian options. Having had some disappointing Sunday dinners out, this was very good. The cauliflower cheese was excellent. Delicious puddings, friendly and prompt service.

We had a great experience. The food was very good. The service too. My only issue was the lack of ventilation. It got quite hot with the windows shut. More worryingly, Covid cases in Herefordshire have doubled in a week so restaurants should ensure that...

This review is mainly based on the accommodation not the restaurant. We must speak as we find as you can see from our previous reviews we are extremely well travelled but We are not familiar with the area , this was our first visit to...

The food here is excellent. Very nice place too. I would definitely visit again. There is a nice beer garden outside and the service is very good.

Not massive portions of veg but quality of all ingredients is excellent. The beef is really worth a mention as a really good portion and superbly cooked. Wife had Ruburb crumble and custard and ha not stopped staying how good it was Highly recommended place...

Aware of it's excellent reputation, I stopped by for lunch. The best chicken & bacon salad sandwich I have yet tasted, the meal was top quality and great value, the service faultless. I will return again soon....

Fabulous find. We loved staying here. The room was great with a very comfortable bed. Everywhere was nice snd clean with good Covid restrictions in place. We had dinner snd breakfast here both were excellent. The staff were all lovely, very welcoming and efficient. We...
