The Stables in East Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Horrendous! Had a baguette Brie/spinach and bacon. 2 spinach leaves in either side of the baguette. Ate some of the baguette upon chewing a complete slice of virtually raw bacon in my mouth… I picked it all out of the bread and told the waitress who collected the plates. I apologise she said . No refund no offer of money off. Husbands fish and chips very mediocre. Not great

Unfortunately the afternoon tea that I booked for my baby shower was not up to the standards that the website showed. Not only was my booking forgotten about until 3 days before I called to confirm it was still going ahead (due to lack of email communication on their part), but the pastries and quiches were also missing from the afternoon tea and the cakes appeared to be shop bought (from Tesco). With the amount of money I paid, I would not be recommending this to anyone!

Have used this place many times as a lunch venue as between both our houses. We went today ,menu very disappointing . Nothing out of the ordinary and as an ex chef I felt the menu was chosen as an easy option. Even the starters were oh lets do the easiest thing possible. Told it has not changed hands but different chef. If it is to survive I think it needs to up its game. Not worth the price. Sorry. Wont be going again.

Stables has always been a favourite for us, but no more. Came here for lunch midweek. Specials board had all 6 items crossed out?!! The first 2 wines requested are no longer available - why still on the list? We chose 3 dishes from the small plates menu...burger, fish and chips and ham,egg and chips. All were totally underwhelming! Burger was totally overcooked and inedible, ham was so thin the light shone through it and the fish was also tough and overcooked. No staff interaction or interest when this was mentioned. I see from another review that staff have changed (Inc chef). Sad, but this place has gone downhill very quickly - lots of good competition around (Thatch House, Exwick for one). Real shame if they can't or won't improve.

We went for Sunday roast today. Food was very disappointing. Chicken was tough. Pork fatty and beef tough. Bring back extras. Used to recommend to friends, but not anymore. Very basic roast. Roast potatoes were overcooked and very difficult to cut. Won't come again

Great family atmosphere. Staff were excellent.

A very poor menu for lunch with hardly any vegan options. We ordered a Greek salad and shared it because it was a huge portion ( actual salad very nice). Then we had ordered 2 mushroom burgers.They were nasty mushy tasteless and cost £15 each! My friend had chips but i didnt want chips but was still charged for them which was a bit unfair. I guess there has been a change of ownership because our last visit was so good. Wont be back.

Dark inside pub Service was slow 🐌 No atmosphere to speak about!

New menu is banging and the service is always great, no matter how busy!

Until recently, this was a reliable place for a meal - well cooked, a good choice with a full specials board, a good range of local cask ales, and good, friendly service. All that has gone, I assume there has been a change of ownership. We have been twice since the apparent regime change. The first time I ordered a rare steak and received a tough piece of leather that was so gristly I think only half of it was edible and then only with a lot of chewing. There didn't appear to be a specials board any more. The second time was for a Sunday roast, previously a sure-fire brilliant experience. Now, the portion size has been reduced, cauliflower cheese is no longer an extra (in fact, extras no longer exist) and the roast potatoes looked good but were, in fact, the victims of a long time under a hot lamp or some similar food warming method. I had roast chicken and it is a real achievement to cook a chicken breast so it is tough. Local cask ales were noticeable by their complete absence. We were told there was a new chef. Clearly, his brief was to cut the food budget by as much as he could even it meant standards would slip The Stables always used to be one of our favourite places for a meal and a good pint. But, with the marked drop in standards. I don't think we will bother any more. There are plenty of other establishments in the area, as good as The Stabkles used to be and with integrity intact.

This was our home from home for family meals for years. We always called the staff our family. We gave them the benefit of the doubt when it changed hands, but after the way the new management treated the staff, many of who left, we have boycotted it.

The pub must have changed hands, because it's cleanliness has declined. Chef must also have changed because the food was so disappointing compared to how it used to be. My mum's jacket potato had a spoonful of beans and a pinch of cheese. My ploughman's had withered and dry rocket a splatter of chutney on the board that resembled a crap on a plate.. Mouldy Mouldy cheese it was grey for goodness sake. Such a shame.

Went on a Tuesday and was quiet . Started to get busier about 1-45 . Lovely have a variety of meals without CHIPS well done Stables .

We have had a lovely evening out. The seating is spaced so conversations aren't overheard. Great background music at the right volume to hear conversations. The fabulous service was attentive with a 'can do' attitude. It was great to feel valued as a customer. We look forward to a return visit soon.

Was good and fast service. There is no car charging point despite being identified by Pod Point!

Food was better than average Service excellent Hardly anyone there for a Saturday night was quiet and lacked atmosphere, will give it another try soon but won't rush

Food nice but over cooked, been again and the same over cooked

Even a nags head at full canter would run a grand national to escape the hurdles described as food, it gave me the trotters and it will you to...

Basic but good, simple food cooked well, great portion size, very attentive staff.

Lots of stairs to walk down into restaurant or drive around front to walk in, tables are a little close together, Nice little pub, good food not a big dessert menu.

I reviewed this some time ago, but I had occasion to dine again recently (May 2024) so I thought I would revisit my review. The restaurant wasn't exactly empty, but it was nowhere near full or half full. That was a great shame as the food and service was excellent. The service was attentive without intruding and putting a jug of water on the table when we arrived was a nice touch. The food was excellent, much better than pub food, it was nicely presented, hot and plentiful. The menu had something for everyone, I didn't realise there was a specials board but I do now and will look out for it on my next visit. I understand the cocktails are worth a look. The staff were friendly and efficient, the duty manager (Gilly) was a great asset to the establishment, if only all restaurant staff were this knowledgeable and effective, perhaps The Stables should be giving Masterclasses on how it should be done. Please take note Wetherspoons. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place. This was my previous review. Excellent food and service. Much more than pub food..

Lovelly ambience friendly staff and attentive. Food was delicious and ample servings.

Had lunch here today. The starter was garlic mushrooms in sauce, great taste. Ham eggs and chips as main, good thick slices of ham with fluffy chips and two well cooked eggs, partner had same starter but a main of chicken and ham pasta in white sauce, also a great dish. Recommend eating here.

Had to wait 30 minutes for food which then came out cold so we sent it back . It then came out cold again . When I say cold the potatoes and parsnips were stone cold and the gravy which was a shame as the gravy was tasty . We were so hungry by this time so we did eat some of it . The Yorkshire pudding was burnt . We asked for mint sauce but were told they had none as they did not have any lamb, but they have always had mint sauce as my husband eats it with every meat and most restaurants would have it . The food used to be amazing here which is a shame the last time we came they had run out of turkey but we decided to give it another try . Definitely won’t be going again . The bill was over £60 so it’s not cheap for a roast and I can only afford it once a month so it’s a shame . The staff did offer us 25% off but that’s not really what’s this is about we did not ask for any discount we just wanted a hot roast in a timely manor . Very disappointed

Sorry too say but apart from pleasent staff,very average and really overpriced,both couples returned dessert cold custard and plates don't mind waiting 30 minutes for freshly cooked mains not over cooked over batterd fish and lukewarm belly pork,it gives us no pleasure too write this review but if you claim to cook all dishes fresh you really need to up your standards and warm plates! and hot food!

My friend and I had a wonderful dinner last night. The staff were really friendly, the service quick and the food was excellent! we will be back!

Quiet when we went fir lunch, however the service and food were great.

Very tasty Sunday lunch. Well cooked and presented. Generous portions. Friendly welcoming staff.

Went with friends for dinner, 1 had dietary requirements that were catered for very well. I started with the trio of pork which was incredible, perfectly seasoned and cooked ro perfection. I finished up with a cheese board which had a great selection of cheese and biscuits. We were sat by the log fire in the corner and it was a great atmosphere in the place. Would highly recommend.

Really tasty meal, highly recommend the burger. Lovely atmosphere with super friendly staff. Always feel welcome, even dogs are allowed in the bar area. Easy parking, enjoy coming here for a drink or meal.

The staff is amazing, creating a much better atmosphere now that the short-tempered lady has left for a new job. The food is brilliant and offers great value for money. I believe the staff members were named Gilly and Abby. They really made us feel welcome and it was nice that they were willing to engage in conversation, even when it was quiet. I highly recommend this pub to anyone. It is nice and quiet, and the background music perfectly matches the pub's theme. A true country pub.

Quiet evening with a friend having a few drinks. Honestly the atmosphere was lovely and the staff Abby and Alex made us feel so welcome making conversation when they can because it was slightly busy but the service was quick couldn’t point out any issues both hard welcome staff

✨️Lovely food 😋 usually come here for a lunchtime mid week or a Sunday roast. Can get quite busy so definitely book (online very easy !) Food is always delicious and piping hot, staff very friendly. One of my favourite places for food 🥘

We booked the stables to celebrate some family birthdays we had a lovely large table. The service was great and the staff werrle very accomodating. The food was really good, everyone ordered something different and it all looked amazing. Would definitely come back again

Couldn't fault our server but food is ridiculous am really confused at all the good reviews. A kids roast? 2 sausages, 2 potatoes and some peas? Will never go back.

Only booked a day before and they still managed to get 8 of us in (just) with a good amount of rearranging. Thanks to the staff involved. Great pub food, staff and plenty of parking. Nice decor.

A real find good food and excellent service...Will be back

We were met by a very attentive waiter who gave a great table. One guest ordered rump steak while I had calves liver. I was surprised not to be asked how wanted the Liver cooked. The steak was supposed to be medium and it was just about ok, but it was almost impossible to cut. The liver was very overdone, and I was not convinced it was calves liver not Lambs. The individual pieces were very thick and didn’t have the consistency of Calves liver Overall the meal was satisfactory but no more

I booked specifically to have an Afternoon tea for my daughter and I on her Birthday as she is heavily pregnant and couldn’t manage a full lunch. The rest of the family and Grandchildren 9 in total all ordered from the lunch menu. The food arrived all together and beautifully hot. The Afternoon Tea was amazing! Such a lovely selection and presented in a very professional way. The other meals were excellent too! We could not fault anything. The staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They all went the extra mile. Excellent and will definitely be booking again in the next couple of months. Well done to all the staff, front of house and especially the kitchen staff. Excellent Service!

Haven’t been here for ages last time we came 2 female senior managers were running the place. We thought we’d visit again after being away for so long, wish we hadn’t bothered, the food was appalling, service was very slow. We waited over a hour for our meal it’s not as if it was busy either, no apology staff seemed disconnected would rather be somewhere else attitude, the place always used to be packed on a Sunday, when it did finally arrive it was barely hot. What has happened? The place has taken a massive nose dive. Very disappointing. Bring back Caitlin and Kirsty they were both lovely always went above and beyond for us very friendly and relaxed always had time for their customers, the place ran like clock work when they were there. Clearly there is an issue in the kitchen the food has always been great. The Sunday roast was awful a few bits of veg in a bowl meat as tough as old leather boots. Definitely not the same chef. I wouldn’t recommend the place anymore and certainly won’t be going again, not that the new manager and owners are bothered if they loose customers, everyone seems to have lost the respect and passion for the once well beloved place. Avoid at all costs. Says a lot for the owners and current managers!!!

We had the afternoon tea, which was lovely, but you do need to order the day before. Deliciously warm sausage rolls and quiche with freshly baked scones with jam and clotted cream. And more cakes than we could eat. Accompanied with tea and coffee, what's not to like?

Agree 110% with the recent reviews -service was TERRIBLE - in fact there was no service because we booked in at 13.15 as arranged and had not received ANY food by the time we walked out at 15.15 - corresponds to 120 min of everybody's wasted time. I can only guess that the problem is insufficient staffing of the kitchen because the serving staff were clearly doing their best to manage the lunatic total ineptude of the failure of meals to appear out of the kitchen area. I had a perfect view of what was going on into and out of the kitchen,but of course I cannot confirm what was going on - or not going on - behind that closed door. NEVER AGAI - and there speaks someone who has patronised the pub in its various guesses for over 40 years. SAD INDEED..

Great place to spend an evening. Food great, staff brilliant..very friendly.

Wife ordered the fish pie. When it arrived, it was overcooked and burnt around the edges (as if it had been left in the oven too long). For a fish pie, it was lacking in fish.

Food was great Excellent service and great atmosphere also dog friendly very important to us

Very different from previous experiences. Now very poor food.

We had a lovely experience at this place! The Sunday roasts were delicious and satisfying. The portion sizes were generous, The staff was friendly and attentive, making the overall dining experience pleasant. I would definitely recommend this place for a tasty Sunday roast."

The waitress was rude and unhelpful. Been a couple of times now and the food is always really hit and miss. An expensive wetherspoons

I'm surprised at some of the recent reviews. We just had (Sunday 14th January) a really nice late lunch. It took a little longer than we would have liked, but this was acknowledged, and apologised for. We also glady received free desserts as a gesture. Great food, and we were looked after. If the delay hadn't been acknowledged, it would have been unlikely that we would have gone back, irrespective of how good the food was. Because it was acknowledged, we will definitely go back.

Me and my family love it here! Can be a bit pricey but the food is really nice l we have always got really good service from friendly and polite staff! It’s a nice place!

Very cold day and a missed opportunity to make it a cosy lunch by not having the real fire lit. We were not warm where we were sat and we were sat by fireplace with no fire lit! Lunch portions small and basic, needed more generous portion and tastier food for prices charged.

On a positive note the staff were polite,pleasant and professional and the environment is excellent.However,the food let the establishment down.My wife had the fish pie which was too much mash and not enough fish.I had live and bacon and I could hardly see the liver as it was so scarce.Liver is reasonably cheap so no excuse there. Sorry,not impressed so will not return unless the food improves!

First time we have been out for lunch with family for awhile,came away very disappointed with the service and drinks.three of our family complained about their lemonade,tasted just like sparkling water,asked for replacements,which were better.however,after placing our food order we had to wait for a hour before it arrived,our Grandaughter had to ask when we could expect the meals to arrive as her toddler was hungry and fidgeting.his meal arrived different then what was listed on the Sunday menu sheet,no roast potatoes or gravy.also no drink came and it took 20 mins for his one scoop of ice cream to arrive.we would all of us ordered desserts and coffee to finish but decided that we would call into tescos on way home and pick up desserts,which we did and enjoyed.we all said that unfortunately we wouldn’t be visiting this restaurant again any time soon..

Sadly poor all around. Should have picked up in the fact that there was a distinct lack of cars in the carpark on a Saturday night further reinforced by the lack of atmosphere when entering. Slow service and food not at all up to the old standards. So much was missing from the menu and specials sold out by 7.30... Starters ok, but ingredients missing as unavailable but no account taken with pricing. Mains disappointed 3 of 4 of us. Frankly I think it's reheated, but if not then really poorly cooked. Finally lots of beers unavailable as the delivery hadn't happened???and the shandy ordered wasn't i.e. twer a full pint for the driver. Really sorry to leave a poor review but seriously disappointed at the difference in what we knew to be a delight. Will not be going back.

Went for my wife's birthday. All day breakfast. Way Too much pepper used by the chef. Over cooked bacon. Over cooked eggs. Very poor. My wife had a chicken ham and leek pie. Extremely hard crusty pie. Way over cooked. Way too much pepper used by the chef on the mash potato. Treacle sponge and custard. Both Extremely cold. Expensive food and poor quantity. Not impressed. We won't be going back.

We went before Christmas in November and again for my birthday in January everyone was very happy with there meal would definitely recommend the Stables in Exeter

Food came all different times and took ages like hour and half

Really nice place to eat really good food at a good price

Christmas dinner was nothing more than poor at best. On arrival they had lost our pre-booked order. When the 1st course arrived we had to ask for suitable cutlery as it was quite difficult to eat soup with a knife and fork. One of our party had prawns which she described as tasteless with a cheap sauce. Other than that the 1st course went without a hitch. When it came to the main course just 1 waitress served 8 of us. She had to make several trips to the kitchen and by the time the veg came out, the meat and potatoes had almost gone cold. Again we had to ask for cutlery as cutlery had been cleared following the 1st course. The turkey was overcooked and dry and there was very little of it. The dessert was ok except for the pavlova!! This turned out to be a merengue (probably bought from Tesco) filled with what looked like blackcurrant. This was returned and replaced with poached pear! All in all, it was a total shambles. In my opinion they had overstretched themselves. Waitresses were doing their best but overwhelmed by the amount of people they had to serve. I would NOT recommend the Christmas meal. and won’t be going again.

Joined friends here for a Christmas meal but disappointed to find it was the same menu as last year with no specials available. I ordered fish pie but it was more like a bowl of mash and veg. Could only pick out a small amount of fish. It did not look appealing and was not enjoyable to eat. The service was slow so I wasn’t able to stay for coffee as I had to leave. The pint of coke was also flat and tasted off. If it’s Pepsi you should inform the customer when ordering.

we have visited the stables many times in the past , and have been pleased with the meals and service , so we had no problem in booking it for a family gathering ,(bad mistake) , when we arrived we were shown to our table , which consisted of four small tables pushed together with non matching chairs , and had not been set for our group of 9 of us ,this is where things went down hill , we weren't even asked if we wanted drinks , and we had to ask several times for someone to take our food orders , when finally are orders had been taken , we were informed some time after that some items were off the menu ,so had to reorder , we waited nearly an hour for the food to arrive , but most of the meals were just warm ,( not hot) and under cooked, we asked for them to be redone , so then had to wait further time ,and by the time we eventually got them back , one member of our group hadn't received theirs , so we again spoke to the waitress to remind her , eventually the meal came out but was missing several items as advertised on the menu , the whole service and food orders were very poor standard , so we asked to speak to someone in charge , we were sent the deputy manager, who was clearly not happy with our concerns , and said she couldn't do anything , so we asked to speak to the manager, who eventually came , so we informed her of the issues we had and how disappointed we were in the whole matter, she explained that they were short of staff and were finding things difficult , we politely said if they had informed us on arriving that they had problems , it might have helped , to which she said she would give us a discount , but when we said her offer was enough, because of the poor service etc , she said if you are getting it for free " That's not going to happen " she then became very rude and non professional , saying lots of people are complaining , we tried to explain we were just pointing out our concerns , she became more angry and said " you know what DONT PAY THEN ...JUST LEAVE ....and stormed off , so we did just that and left , and you can be sure we won't be back and will tell our friends about the whole sorry experience !!!!!!!

What an awful experience for a party of seven pre-booked for Christmas lunch. Arriving at 12 noon, we were served our starters at 1.30pm with no explanation for the delay. This set the tone for the rest of the meal, with sub-standard food quality and presentation. The main meal was cold, the turkey was so tough and the roast potatoes were burnt and un-eatable! Unfortunately there was only one potato per person and the vegetables, which consisted only of cabbage and 2 Brussel sprouts each, served in a cereal bowl for all of us was seriously inadequate. Later we understood there was a shortage of staff and supplies, but the manager didn't find it necessary to advise us of this when we first arrived. Had this been the case we may have gone elsewhere. We eventually finished our 'experience' at 4.45pm. Trying to converse with the Manager was all too difficult, as the only response was that she was suffering from a panic attack! A bad day all round.

Food was delicious and the staff were brilliant , nothing was too much bother , very good value for money , large carpark . I can highly recommend this restaurant , and I will go back very soon .10/10

I went for a Christmas meal today with friends, our booking was for 12.30, our starters were mainly, prawn cocktails, this consisted of one lettuce leaf a couple of prawns and very watery marie rose sauce. Also we had to wait a very long time for the starter. After this we had to wait ages for a cold main course. To cut a long story short , we left the stables at around 4pm!!!! Where are the managers of these places, leaving very young people to deal with stressful situations, it's not fair on our young people, just starting out in jobs. Xx GROW SOME BALLS .. OWNERS AND MANAGERS . APPALLING...SHAME ON YOU!!!!

What can I say.its hard to describe just how bad it was today at the Stables,the service and meal was an absolute shambles from beginning to end.Imagine Fawlty Towers but considerably worse and not as funny and you wont be far wrong.The food was dreadful,the service appalling,honestly we have been here several times in the past with no problems which is why we came back, however based on today none of our party will ever return. The "Manager" was so far out of her depth it was excruciating,plainly she had been thrown to the wolves by her senior managers.My advice would be if you have booked a Christmas Meal here CANCEL IT NOW while you can get in somewhere else, because if you don't you may well have to suffer the worst restaurant experience of you life.If however you like waiting 60 mins between courses,like your food stone cold,like having to ask for utensils every time a course eventually appears,and then like being overcharged after being offered a substantial discount for what was frankly an appalling experience then this is the place for you !

Food was amazing, Steak and ale pie was to die for (and the mash) good pint of Hanlans ale to wash it down ! Excellent

Group of us visited last week for a Christmas meal, was sadly disappointed. The servers were very polite and pleasant, however service was slow and it was very cold! Food was also very expensive for the quality of what came out. Had a prawn cocktail to start which was very obviously frozen prawns in a cheap sauce, tried the chicken wings which weren’t terrible. For mains, I had a pie and chips which wasn’t too bad (although the cheap looking veg mix was burned somehow), however one member of the party had the Thai curry and it was terrible. Very overcooked mush with dry microwave rice, most of it was left other than few mouthfuls. Staff did apologise and offer a free drink, but didn’t offer to take the meal off the bill. Majority of the party commented on how poor their meals were as well. Desserts were mediocre but edible, nothing special. Overall very disappointed as we visited here a few years ago and the food was excellent. Sadly looks like the food has gone down hill, making no plans to visit again in the near future.

We came to visit with some family members who recommended the pub. Everything was 10/10 from the welcome to the food to the ambience. Nothing was too much trouble. We felt like at home and we can’t wait to visit again. Happy Christmas to all the staff who are working hard to deliver food and service top notch.

We’re we’re looking forward to a birthday meal at The Stables but we’re disappointed with some aspects the meal. The potatoes and vegetables were a good temperature but the meat and gravy were at best luke warm and as the plate wasn’t warmed, were quickly cold, making the meal unpleasant to eat. This is a real shame as it could have been a good meal. Unfortunately, staff didn’t ask how the meal was and I was reluctant to make a fuss as it was a birthday treat. Probably wouldn’t go back.

the evening was terrible it was our xmas get together for our gr oup but none of us will return or recommend the place was freezing cold we had to put our coats back on the service was slow and terrible and food in general very disappointing would not say it was not well presented

The place was absolutely freezing this evening, (had to keep coats and scarves on whilst eating our meal) and very quiet for a Friday in December. Maybe the two are linked? Couldn't fault the food though. Very tasty indeed.

Lovely setting, friendly staff, recommended

Normally one of the best Sunday roasts around, the last 2 visits have meant we will not be returning or recommending them anymore. Firstly, told there’s no roast potatoes so had baby new potatoes roasted, had to wait about 30 mins for food to arrive (5pm on a Sunday) Last visit, (3pm) had run out of cauliflower cheese(something we really look forward too), 10 mins later took our order, after 40 mins had to ask where it was as now had a hungry toddler that was getting bored, came out 2 of the 3 meals were incorrect,told the waitress who did say they’d go and change it but there’d be another wait,so declined that,veg brought over with no serving spoon, told the waitress, she still didn’t get one,service not great either

The food took a long time to come!

Far better restaurant I have come across in Exeter,

Came here for a family lunch. We had the roast beef. The meat was tough and the gravy and stuffing lukewarm. Vegetables for the table in a pasta bowl. No 'how is your meal' or 'would you like more drinks' as you would expect in a restaurant. Been here before and had great food, maybe a one off but won't be back sadly.

Traditional roast dinner on a Sunday. Pre booked table for 7. Despite being sat first at 12 noon, we didn't get served until 3 other tables had their order taken. All had roast beef. Whilst good portions, you would expect the food to be hot. Nothing worst than cold roast dinner. The vegetables today were served in a pasta bowl all mixed together. Carrots, cabbage although only a sparse amount and runner beans. We also ordered sides of cauliflower cheese. No one asked whether the meal was ok, no one came to ask us whether we would like any more drinks. Today was a celebration. If this was just my dinner that was cold, I would chalk it down to an isolated incident. It wasn't. We didn't stay for deserts, went across to the local garden centre for deserts and a hot coffees and chocolate. This restaurant used to be good but today's lunch was definitely below par - this is the second time, we have had cold food. We won't be back.

Very overpriced for the quality of food! Multiple ingredients missing from a number of dishes we had. Food looked nothing like the Google review pictures. Very poorly presented and very basic. No cutlery was on table and we had to ask for some which arrived quite some time after our food. Limited beer and aperitif options. Interior is nice & staff are polite, large car park at rear. Wouldn’t return. Agricultural inn is a few mins drive away and for similar prices the food is in another league.

I'm very critical of roasts outside of mine/wives and my mum's but it's pretty damn good here

Wonderful experience lovely staff superb food

Shocking service, meals serviced at different times and cold.

Went for a birthday meal! Fantastic food and huge portions! Fantastic visit.

The staff were delightful, and our meals (x 4) were all fantastic. Thank you.

Had the tastiest sunday lunch here. The service was friendly efficient and I would highly recommend a visit.

It looked empty, no cars no people. We nearly passed by but wait, people could be seen in the window. Ah the car park is at the rear. Glad we stopped; excellent venue and food. Looks can be misleading.

Went for my birthday. We didn’t get told it was table service so we ordered at the bar. Should of been informed. Main meal delicious, lady that delivered food was lovely. Desserts were disappointing, small portions for high price.

We had a fabulous meal for 4 the food was excellent the best fish pie I have had. The meal portions were very substantial it was piping hot and deliciously home made. The staff were very very pleasant even though they were very busy. The environment/ atmosphere was just a tad lacking but it I had to recommend I would give an overall of 9.0

We used it as part of a group booking. Considering how many of us there were, the staff were very friendly, helpful and quick to get the good out to us. The food was hot, plentiful and we'll presented.

Service was very good food beef was a bit chewy and not seasond roast potatoes needed to be more crispy to soggy toilets were clean but needed to have more fresh air in them .

Great food, I had the fish and chips. Great taste and portion size

Service not as good as it has been, food good but portion size seem to have shrunk leaving us feeling that it is over priced.

Sorry not so great here. Problem in the kitchen meant reduced menu. They had my phone number they could have called me to give me the option as to cancelling my reservation but chose nt to. I was meeting friends here, it was very disappointing. All I could have was a baked potato that was clearly cooked earlier in the day I have complained about it by email but they haven't even bothered to get back to me.

Excellent The service is good Menu selection slso very good Will be favkm

Went there as part of a wedding party. The place looked amazing, the service was fantastic. Will definitely be going there again for sure.

Very busy but the staff were very attractive and polite. Great food well worth the wait which we were warned about

Ordered fish and chips , the saddest looking fish and chips i have seen ,and small, tasted awful , the only good thing was the peas ! My partner had the pork belly with apple sauce , sauce was not Appley, and missing the crackling. Complained and the manager did take the drinks off the bill.

We enjoyed a lovely lunch of three courses and drinks on a weekday. The service was excellent and the price was very reasonable. I would recommend booking in advance at weekends as it seems to be a popular place.

Had an afternoon tea, food was nice, the scones were lovely. Could really have done with more teas and coffees though, they were cold on arrival, pots of tea and coffee would have certainly made for a better afternoon tea.

Great place for a Sunday Lunch. Reasonable prices and exceptional service. Thank you

Not dog friendly. Booked a table and were shown to table by waiter. Only to be told by another staff member that dogs weren't allowed indoors but we could sit outside. It was lashing down so left. ps Our dog is in a buggy due to major surgery so not even able to move around. Off to find a more accommodating venue. Won't be back.
