The Seven Stars Inn in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I have read all the reviews and was expecting a slightly better than average pub. I was wrong.. It exceeded my expectations. The dinner for myself and daughter was of a very good standard. The attention to detail was well thought out. My room was spacious and comfortable. Will we go back? We will of course. Value for money. ? I was surprised at the final bill. Great value.

It didn’t look much but great food, great service, attentive to all our needs (toddler, baby, dog, miserable old sod). A great Sunday lunch experience!

We preordered at the request of the Seven Stars because we were a party of 7! We arrived bang on time and the food came out immediately! Even before our drinks order! Chips burned to a crisp, fish we think had been double fried. So no fillings remained. Some of us received the wrong sides. Korean chicken also ruined and dry. Cottage pie full of salt. Basically an expensive and disappointing meal. One course one drink and they charged us £207 in total. They didn’t seem bothered when we complained. A disaster all round! Plus: How can you justify £11 for one glass of rose wine.

The man in the Kitchen makes this place worth a visit. Never has roast beef been cooked to this level of perfection it was excellent. Even the Yorkshire pudding is worth a mention, fluffy and light a masterpiece. Roast potatoes amazing. Go there stay there. Also an imaginative wine list,certainly not the usual more The unusual and very good. Draft beer like nectar. Service was good. Landlord friendly. Who could ask for anything more.

Quite possibly one of the best Sunday lunches I’ve ever had! 10/10. Revisiting Bottlesford after 55 years.

Visited here whilst staying in Marlborough for a post-Xmas break. In four days of eating out, this was definitely the best place we came to. Great service, lovely intimate surroundings, and excellent food. Three of our party are vegetarian and the options were great - which, sadly, is still more of an exception than a rule. The meat and fish dishes were also apparently excellent. A good choice of local beers as well. Highly recommended.

Great home-cooked food and friendly staff. No rush for us to leave, so great for our family Christmas get-together. The drinkers among us were happy with the choice of ciders and low alcohol lagers.

We were let down by our first choice of venue, so phoned on Saturday to book an evening meal. We were asked to pre-order our food so did. Luckily we ate early before the kitchen got busy. Our food arrived 10 minutes after we arrived. My vegan burger, brown toast, salad and sweet potato fries were excellent. My husband's cheeseburger was good but not great. We asked the barman if they stocked Appletisers. He said they did, but we were served Bottle Green apple pressee which we didn't like.

Visited for one of the Bottfest events with live music and BBQ. Excellent time in the extensive garden - plenty of tables and chairs, outside bar and a fantastic BBQ with plenty of choice. All washed down with some good ale and wine - what’s not to like!

A gorgeous country pub, with lots of character. Delicious food, and a very warm welcome from the friendly host, Graham.

After a very hot day on the bikes from Winchester we found the Seven Stars as a very welcoming watering hole and great place to stay overnight. Great food, great beers, comfy rooms and great breakfast. Exactly what we needed!

A lovely quiet corner of Wiltshire, nice accommodation and staff who are friendly and helpful. But a slightly underwhelming menu plus a not-so-clean bathroom took the gloss off what could have been a great stay

Dinner for 7. Graham and his team were very welcoming. Menu availability worked perfectly well for us and the food was simply wonderful and plenty of it. Honestly, the quality and presentation of the meals were first class. Highly recommended.

This was a lovely find on a cold winters evening... absolutely beautiful ambience, welcoming hello and excellent service. The vegan options were delicious, and it can be hard to find a pub in the sticks that caters to vegans, so really happy we found this place. We will definitely be returning on special occasions, as it is fairly expensive, but in our view well worth it!! :)

Myself, my son and grandson’s first visit to this lovely county pub. Friday night and the place was busy and buzzing, wonderful atmosphere, cosy and friendly. We had been asked to pre book which was not a problem and the starters were ready when we arrived. The food was delicious, staff were excellent, attentive but not over powering. It was a nice touch that the owner Graham came and spoke to us during the evening and treated us as valued customers. Would definitely recommend, and will be back. *****

Gorgeous food cooked with love and care. Top class standard. Wonderful wine list. Laid back but highly efficient service. Graham, the landlord, is the perfect host. Really knows his food and wines and creates the most wonderfully welcoming atmosphere. Lovely cosy and quiet bedrooms. We love this place. It never lets us down and we always look forward to our visit. This time we took my granddaughter with us who also approved. Hopefully, the next generation of guests to this wonderful Inn.

Absolutely lovely food, cosy and quaint pub with great service. We had steaks and burgers and a veggie burger and all of the food was perfect. The staff were really helpful and friendly and we will definitely be back again! 10/10

This is worth the trip to find a lovely pub in the country. Super staff, excellent food. Not the modern travesty pub without character; this is the real deal.

This is the first time I have had a burger based on chicken and it was exceptional. The chips were made even better due to a home made mayonnaise. A rose from Provence and a creme brulee made this the best lunch I have had...

We visited on the 11/08/21 fantastic food staff very helpful reasonable size menus middle of the road price for the quality of food you get vast range of drinks If I was back in the area I would revisit

I called just after mid day for an evening reservation. The person on the end of the phone was cheerful and friendly. We agreed a time and because of the current issues around getting staff I was asked the pre-order. This easy and straightforward. Arriving...

Visited twice in two days. We'd already booked for the Saturday night music and hog roast but ended up dropping in the night before, partly for a recce but also for dinner. Food was fabulous - we tried a range of options and loved each...

We went to the seven stars for the first time with friends Food was average pork was burnt sadly fish pie dry Mussels and steak were nice Service little slow had to go ask at bar for pudding as we got forgotten Not sure I’d...

Great service, tasty food and covid friendly. Also, bamboo straws were great. Would definitely visit again

Whilst the food is excellent with a great choice of dishes, the young staff do not engage much with their diners. The young 'bar manager' (?) needs to put down his mobile and check that his junior members of staff are ensuring everyone is being...

We try and stay at the Seven Stars at least twice every year. Usually summer and Christmas, for a 2 night break. Fabulous walking area, historical and ancient with some of the most beautiful views in the UK in this area of ONB. Pair all...

Great place for a Sunday lunch. Passion for their craft, with a warm and friendly welcoming host. Good portions of quality food at reasonable prices. Will be back.

This gastro pub can do no wrong. Charming Landlord and staff who are attentive and welcoming. The food is consistently delicious with a fine wine list. Great atmosphere throughout. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Lunch time visit, and we sat in "the garden room", my friend really enjoyed it there as she could enjoy looking out of the window, and looking at all of the interesting paraphernalia. The meals were lovely and good value for money, considering the high...

We had some drinks and a fantastic meal in this inn. The owner and his staff are very friendly and advised us what to eat.

Recently went for Sunday lunch with good friend who lives locally. Despite not having a table booked they did everything to accommodate us. Food was excellent especially the pakora prawns and bavette steak. Nice place to spend a chilled out Sunday afternoon!

Spent the night at the Seven Stars and thoroughly enjoyed our stay - the owner and staff are friendly and very professional - the wine and gin list extensive and the real ale absolutely superb ! The dinner menu was very interesting and the quality of the freshly prepared food first class - we had a thoroughly enjoyable, and a great leisurely supper - our bedroom was spotlessly clean and had everything one needed for a comfortable stay - the breakfast was also very good indeed.If I were to nick-pick, the only negative comment I can make is that the outside public areas need a good tidy up, but I believe they had just held a busy beer festival there -the gardens certainly need the services of a gardener as they are extensive and a bit unkempt.

Extremely poor service, failed to advise they had a festival that day and night, we could live that as we were advised when we arrived that the festival would end by 11pm. Upon return we found the loud music eventually ended at 1am! Nonetheless we persevered in the hope that breakfast would reinstate the 5* however breakfast was nonexistent as we attempted to locate the restaurant area for breakfast (we were advised breakfast is served from 8am, we attempted to get downstairs at 8.30am, knowing we had a 6 hour journey ahead of us!) and nobody was there! Doors were locked so we had to exit via the kitchen round the back! Nonetheless we paid 50% the value of the room thanks to my kind hearted husband as frankly I wouldn't have left a penny! Not worth the trip, I'd much rather stay in a travelodge! 0 stars

We have had a number of memorable visits / stays at the Seven Stars over the last many years often on bicycle tours. This time we spent a night as part of an anniversary tour of the area. Always a treat the Seven Stars has raised its game with a welcoming ( and hugely popular) terraced garden and rooms benefitting from plenty of tlc. Great beer and food ( both dinner and a generous breakfast ) as always. And the landlords inimitable warm welcome !! Couldn’t recommend it more highly!

Nice country pub Good choice of beers and gins Friendly service Good atmosphere Food very good Ample garden area

This is my local pub and I love it and the landlord, Graham. Great atmosphere, lovely service and good food.

Had a lovely weekend staying at a friends place in Bottlesford two weeks ago and whilst I enjoy cooking, I was only too happy to sit back and relax and let others do the work. So, on the Saturday, I phoned the local pub to book a table. Graham the landlord took my booking, and was extremely generous to fit our party of 3 in even though the place was fully booked. The pub is set in a beautiful country lane and after a casual ten minute stroll we arrived all rather hungry. On initially entering we were greeted by the very friendly staff, as though like a regular. I was recommended a regional beer and my partner took advise on a rather delightful gin from the extensive collection. We were shown to our table and provided with our menus. I had reviewed it before leaving the house, so had a good idea of what i wanted, but needed some confirmation of what i could expect. Again the young lady who served us was very knowledgeable and happily provided the information i needed. So orders were made and before too long the food (mains) arrived. It was to die for. I had the Bavette steak, my partner belly pork and my daughter the seven stars burger with bacon and cheese. For pudding the chocolate torte won the day. Pub grub this was not. Fine dining at it's best! And at a very reasonable price. I was making a spaghetti Bolognese the next day, but was short of a couple of ingredients and Graham very kindly let me have what i needed. Excellent food and exceptional service and all in a lovely setting. Can't recommend it enough

Our visit was linked to our White Horse Gypsy Caravans experience. The field next to the pub being our home for the night. We both had good meals (ribeye steak for me, fish pie for my wife) and drinks. The only gripe being the prices. My steak was £25 and a comparable meal in a comparable pub would be under £20 . So all in all very good, nice pub, friendly staff, good food but just a bit overpriced.

My husband and I came here for lunch after a visit to the nearby garden centre. He had been to the pub before, but many years ago.

Well, where to start......on first impressions all looked lovely but little did we know!! We had arrived at 1.50 for a 2pm reservation. We ordered a drink at the bar, my husband had a bitter which he said was great. We did get a hint that things were not going too well when a diner came up to the bar to ask how long their order would be and the response was that that kitchen 'was flooded' meaning with orders, not water....we saw other diners waiting and a few comments were made so we gathered the afternoon was not going to plan.

Good choice of dishes, well cooked food and decent portions. Couldn't fault it. Pleasant surroundings helpful staff.

We had wanted to go here for a while, as reviews were good and always seemed popular. Unfortunately, being busy does have its down side. Waiting time!

Another visit to Wiltshire and a must visit to the wonderful Seven Stars, great beer and wine with the warmest of welcomes, open fire and sumptuous menu.

Basic modernised pub but a cracking meal at reasonable prices and the staff were very amenable We had Sunday lunch of pork and one with beef. Both meals were well presented and the meat was succulent.Well worth a visit if in the area

Stayed at this pub as had a party nearby. The en-suite room (book direct) was very comfortable with a nice selection of tea and coffees (including a Nespresso machine). We didn't eat in the restaurant but the menu looked interesting. However, breakfast was absolutely superb!

The welcome was warm on this snowy night, though the place was too warm for the open fire - a pity. The food was great - local ingredients with a sophisticated touch.

We stopped by for lunch on a Friday in November. We've eaten here a few times before, but not for a year or so. It's an attractive pub off the beaten track, with lots of different and nice seating and eating areas, log fires etc.

A most welcoming Landlord and friendly waiting staff. Available parking. Good wine list and choice of beers and ciders. Varied and extensive menu. On the downside, our table was horribly sticky. The sardine starter and pakora prawns were exquisite but the latter needed more dip.

A wonderful pub tucked away in the countryside which is a venue you are either taken too by a local or you are fortunate enough to stumble across during your travels. All the food is locally sourced and cooked from fresh. With this in mind you may (on occasions) have to wait a little while from ordering to it being delivered to you.

I haven’t written a review for some time but this is worth “coming out of retirement” for.

We had a brilliant 3 course meal here last night. Plenty of interesting, quality food choices for all our group. Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Thank you.

Travelling on the worse day of the year! Traffic jams from Cornwall to A303 and needed a break for dinner. After seeing reviews, decided to take a punt! Had chicken burgers, which were delicious & juicy! Did mean the bin went soggy, but we forgave that as they were so tasty! Kids meals were great quality too! The puddings were not disappointing and the coffee was great. Shame no soya milk. The service was fantastic. Friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The only downside is I think it was more expensive than your average pub. Otherwise it was a great place to while away a few hours while we let the roads calm down.

On the last night of a weeks holiday we decided to try the Seven Stars for our last meal .............What a shame we didnt try it earlier as we had the most amazing meal .......The service was excellent , all youngsters who took pride in the way they looked after guests , a lovely atmosphere and even though all the tables were busy you could comfortably speak to one another .All in all a very enjoyable evening , we just wish we had found it earlier.

First time I’ve eaten here . Food was very good indeed. Recommend the pate and Sunday lunch . Beef was cooked superbly! Will definitely return here again

From the moment you pull up to The Seven Stars Inn, you feel relaxed and in a good mood.

As with others who have reviewed here, doing the cycle route so seemed a logical place to stay.

Lovely setting in the sticks. Some people loved their meals (pakora prawns and some other things) others thought a bit dodgy. Microwaved, chewy or dry. Wine list was being developed so there wasn’t one. Door for some airflow took a few asks to get open, otherwise service lovely. We all laughted at the one scoop pudding though that came on a very very very tiny plate. Still the 86 year old Birthday Boy enjoyed himself so that’s all that matters.

This free house is a joy to visit,and the landlord makes you feel as if you have been a regular for years. Very impressive food and cheerful pleasant staff. We now visit regularly, especially for the Sunday roast.

A good public house with very good food managed by knowledgeable chef who is permanently overseeing the pub's activities.

Popped in with a friend and eat and try the ale. A healthy selection of keg beer, we tried a bitter from the Stonehenge Brewery.

We came here last year as a one off visit but now we are regulars.

Good choice of food, we all had different which was nice. Staff happy to explain what the dishes were. Friendly atmosphere.

Stayed here while cycling for a couple of days in the lovely Wiltshire countryside. The inn is in a quiet village. Everything from booking till leaving was handled very well. The room was comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Service from Graham, the landlord, was polite, knowledgeable and efficient. Highly recommended.

I’m gluten free and have been for years. I can honestly say this place has the most versatile menu for us food disabled people! I had battered fish for the first time in 12 years which was good but my partners bavatte Steak was ‘to...

Fantastic selection of food and drinks. Great cosy pub with perfect atmosphere. Staff was so polite and so helpful, I will certainly be going back.

Never been before but what a delightful place. We live in Hungerford an£ certainly worth the 30 minute trip. Landlord was very welcoming and although we were late he was very obliging in providing a delicious light lunch. My wife adored the sardines with hot...

Comfortable pub with atmosphere and cosy areas. Great Staff Friendly & polite. Excellent food. Reasonably priced. Will be going again.

The food is not good enough and the price of each meal reflects the days before the chef left. It is now overpriced and the food is below average for a pub

You can go to any number of country pubs to eat simple quality meals and be very disappointed at the end. Then you can go to the seven stars and eat excellent simple ingredients which have been superbly cooked and then realise the difference between the average and the bloody good. Great place pleasant staff and good beer and wine too.

We held our wedding party at the Seven Stars. Its marquee is a brilliant little venue that we were able to decorate for ourselves. Graham and his staff catered for a party of 44 with excellent lamb and chicken sharing platters and amazing desserts. What made it more impressive was the weather was appalling but the food arrived in perfect condition.

This place is always busy and humming, which is a very good sign! The food and service are excellent, just make sure you book in advance to avoid disappointment.

We had our wedding lunch at the pub. It was perfect in every way. We had 30guests and everyone loved the whole day, but raved about Grahams food. We had a mezza starter with homemade bread. Main course was slices of rare sirloin beef, with greens, potatoes and homemade hollandaise. Guests were saying it was the best beef they had eaten, many of whom have been lucky enough to eat in world famous restaurants. Pud was a trio which included passion fruit posset, lemon cheesecake. But, my favorite was the choc salted caramel tart - oh my heaven. All paired with wines that we previously tasted yet guided by Graham. His staff were awesome too, incredibly helpful and it made our day. A wonderful day so a huge thank you. Oh yes the next morning we had a fantastic breakfast outside in the sun which included (on request) his famous scotch eggs!

After nearly having a heart attack looking at the prices on the menu and the lack of menu (barmaid said we have to charge these prices because we are in the middle of nowhere and need to get noney somehow) decided to go for starters soup scotch eggs and chips. The £8 scotch egg was actually ok and the frozen £4.50 chips were ok ( expected hand mate for that price). But it was the £6.50 soup that was disgraceful, my wife ordered the bacon an lentil soup and no lie it looked and tasted like dish water, it was basically hot water with bacon fat and a few lentils chucked in no stock no salt and pepper just bland and yiu could build a house with the bread how an earth can any kind of chef let that go to ok for human consumption. When spoke to the barmaid who was very nice she said that she tried it and it was ok but I'm sorry there is no way she tried that soup . When told the young waitress she was great and was so apologetic.If your going to do very expensive poncy food get the basics wright and maybe try it before it goes out th the paying public

I would have loved to give this Inn a 5* rating but I didn't feel entirely comfortable. Four of us went in and the other three looked for a nice table - which they found. I went to the bar to get the first round in. The landlord seemed to find a whole lot of other things to do rather than serve me, which I'm afraid, I found somewhat annoying - maybe it was me!? I paid for the drinks - they came to more than I had expected and found my friends sitting at a lovely table.The menu was probably the most expensive I have seen in a pub but offered a good and varied selection. Two went for a starter as a main, I had a burger. I have to say the meals were extremely good and surprisingly large.There are extensive grounds so plenty of room for kids to play outside and to eat Al Fresco. I would go again if in the area.

Located in a quiet country lane so off the beaten track I have to use satnav to jog my memory every time I head down here, this ancient pub dates from the mid 18th century. Located in one of the most beautiful corners of England, near the Pewsey Downs and the Kennett and Avon canal, this is also crop circle ground zero, with both Stonehenge and Avebury, as well as the attractive market town of Marlborough all a short drive away. If you're feeling particularly fit, the Great Stones Way, a linear walk to Stonehenge, passes this pub, and will amply reward anyone who makes the journey; the scenery takes in the ramparts of Salisbury Plain, picturesque villages with thatched cottages and at the end, a grand and spectacular walk down The Avenue, the neolithic pathway to the famous monument.But it's the Seven Stars itself that makes the journey so enjoyable. Start with the bar itself, with an intelligent wine list that is far more adventurous than most. A top shelf with a wide selection of gin but also some good rums, whiskeys and even an excellent cachaca - along with premium mixers (fevertree) and lots of ice. The food is also excellent and the accommodation is comfortable and (in the case of the family room) almost like having your own private suite, as the room and separate bathroom have a door closing them off from the corridor.I have had the pleasure of staying here several times and I feel it is time I wrote a review to express just how special I feel this place is. If you'd enjoy a tranquil break with great food and drink, right in the spiritual heart of Wiltshire, this is the place to come.

We simply love this place and return here again and again each year, apart for a time when some sad events occurred in my family thereby preventing us from being able to visit for a while. But this weekend we made it back there again and it was like returning home. The same beautiful and timeless countryside around evoking feelings of peace and tranquility, and those same energies are felt in the stones of the Seven Stars whose history dates back to 1746.The friendliness of Graham, the owner, and the lovely young staff, the varied menu, the generous helpings of food, sparkling glasses of very reasonably priced, very good wines, all make for a happy experience. Good cooking and hospitality at its best.We loved our room as it was big and airy on one of the hottest nights of the year. The calming pale mint colours of the decor, comfortable beds, good bed linen and quality pillows and towels helped us to further relax into the comfortable ambiance created here.Good hospitality tray, nespresso machine, fridge, beautiful big bathroom containing a deep bath and separate shower cabinet and generous toiletries, and outside on the landing, a filled bookcase.This place is a wonderful base for when walking any of the ancient tracks locally such as the Great Stones walk, cycling the area, exploring ancient burial sites, or simply just taking a break from an often frantic pace and relaxing in a historical pub with the best of food, wines, convivial landlord, friendly young staff who can't do enough for you before waking up next morning to only the sound of birdsong, the occasional horse rider passing by and all at very reasonable prices. Or just dropping in for a delicious lunch or dinner.Places like this wonderful establishment are increasingly hard to find and deserve not just to survive, but to thrive. In the words of Joni Mitchell ' Don't it always seem to go, you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone'

Nos amis anglais nous ont invité à découvrir ce restaurant et nous n'avons rien à regretter. Accueil chaleureux par un patron aimant la plaisanterie. Décor très anglais version pub. Bière de qualité et "fish and chips" remarquable.

We have dined here for eighteen years.Many years ago we enjoyed the delights of Philippe Cheminade's cooking.However we spent £85 on a below standard lunch for three.The owner well I assume he was made me feel embarrassed because I asked for vinegar for my oven chips.Sorry can't help it I am from North Yorkshre.This was meant to be a happy family lunch but sadly it was not.

I booked an evening table for 2 for my birthday having been told how good it was here, we just didn't realise how good it was going to be! The menu is small but very varied and prices that are expected for a pub. The bar man/ owner had an extensive understanding of wines so interesting and informative and gave us the chance to try until we found a bottle we liked, but the price of the bottle was less than £15!! Next on to our table, I always worry asking for a table for 2( as usually you have a tiny table shoved in a corner) but we were met with a large table set out beautiful in a really nice size area. We chose starters and Mains. Now at this point, seeing the style of menu. Wine chosen table lay out. I was expecting Al a Carte tiny plates. Splashes of jus. A dusting of fragrant air etc... Well how wrong was I!! Big plates, real food, great tastes and lots of it!!! Proper pub food done with taste and a very high standard! We shared a pudding as we were stuffed! We had a fantastic chat with the owner about the food and it was clear he had a big input into the menus. We can't recommend this place enough! Just hope others go there as places like this can end up having to close as they are so rural and can find it hard to make the business work.

What a little find this place was! Amazing selection of over 40 gins on offer! Landlord very cheerful and attentive. We sat outside for lunch which turned out to be a culinary treat. Carpaccio starter was delicious. Dog friendly too and enjoyed a pretty walk suggested to us by the bar staff after lunch.

Reserved a table of 8 for a Sunday lunch with family. Lovely staff, perfectly cooked home made food and brilliant selection of gin and ice cream! Plenty of parking right outside. Only thing we struggled with was getting my grandmother up and down steps. Staff including the chef offered to help and showed us around the back way for an easier way in. Fantastic service and homely atmosphere. Recommended!

I know the Seven Stars well but I had not stayed there before. I own a house in the village which we rent out. Due to tenants moving out I had to stay at the pub whilst co-ordinating things, I stayed for two nights.The room was excellent. We had an excellent full sized bathroom and shower room. The bedroom was a good size with Beds with firm mattresses and very nice oak furniture, a nespresso machine and pods as well as several types of tea.The food at the pub is not cheap but it is very good. The menu changes with some permanent items but some daily variation too. There is an excellent range of ales, wines and liquors. The staff work hard and are attentive.Breakfast was a superb full English. Graham, the landlord is a really strong front of house person and again, is super attentive and knows how to run an excellent establishment!

Visited on Saturday night with the horses. The staff where all very pleasant and friendly. Had a lovely meal, the Sticky Toffee Pudding was to die for.

We had supper and stayed the night. This is a proper English Pub with proper differing ales both local and wider a field. An amazing wine list with different wines from all over the world at reasonable prices. The food well its what I love, food you know with a twist and the scotch eggs have found themselves No1 I have ever had. Graham knows his stuff and the staff were friendly taking time to talk to us. The room had a huge bed and beautifully done up. Nothing fancy but tasteful and has everything you need. Breakfast - homemade bread with proper sausages, bacon the list goes on. This is a great place to eat, drink and relax and view Wiltshire from.

Had a lunch for ten, food was outstanding, lovely old country pub with modern high quality food. Atmosphere and service was great

If you want an decent straightforward country pub, with a flair for food and decent accommodation you cannot do better than this. Great hosting and service and fine lost property department

The staff here seem to gloat at you as they read out the menu and seem to imply that its too expensive for us, which is correct. The food wasnt anything special just three times as costly as it should have been. Patronising staff lording it over you doesnt help.

Have visited three times in the last month, as a couple and a larger family group. Great service, food and ambience. A refreshingly 'different' menu, that varies regularly, with something for everyone. Thoroughly recommended

The Seven Stars has a fantastic menu from wonderful Haddock and chips to a more unusual range of starters and main courses, I'm not always the most adventurous in my choices, but absolutely loved the air dried Tuna with Octopus. I was not sure about ordering octopus as it was my first time, but it was quite delicious and melt in the mouth.. not at all rubbery. Whilst here I tried a few other dishes such as the Braised Beef with a super glossy sheen to the red wine reduction (probably not describing it to it's best.. but you know what I mean?) just heavenly. With new serving staff the service was a little slow at times but the food was worth the wait and I'm sure it will improve swiftly as they gain experience. The Piri-Piri chicken sandwich was HOT ! ;)

We were part of a pre-booked party yesterday for lunch (both courses booked at least a week prior to our arrival). When we arrived I was asked if I was in the wedding party - I said no. Response was "Ok then I'm not bothered about you" and that was exactly how it appeared. The tables were laid for 2 less than our party so WE had to move chairs onto the end of tables. Our main course arrived after about 45 minutes and an hour and a quarter later we left having given up on the pudding. No-one came to apologise or explain. Only one guy on the bar who was serving others so I asked the girl who was beside him - I was told she was too young to serve me. Please don't accept bookings for a wedding plus 27 others if you can't cope. CHAOS! Shame because we're local and I'm afraid that's the last time we'll go.

My son booked a table for mothering Sunday, what a disappointment.We had to wait 40minutes for the starter; which was pretty tasteless and after an hour and 30 minutes out main turned up, they had run out of veg, the chief must have thought it was perfectly acceptable to serve up over cooked beans and fried courgette. When my son asked if they had run out of veg the waitress said yes but offered no apology. We noted a table of four had also been waiting a long time, when their lunch did arrive it went back to the kitchen twice.We were charged for drinks we didn't order - the service and food was just terrible.

Lovely food, well cooked and very clean both in public and kitchen areas (yes I know someone who works there, but wouldn't eat there if I was at all concerned!) Steaks and game are on the menu alongside fresh fish and vegetarian offerings. All well cooked, and smaller portions on request. A real local, historic building, with a welcoming feel. Definitely one to visit if you are here on holiday and want to try some local food. We recently had a 50th birthday there with 10 of us, and despite a busy day, service was still excellent, even if the poor wait staff couldn't encourage my younger dog out from under the table to say hi!
