The Star Inn in Rushcliffe

Wonderful pub with a very friendly atmosphere and staff were excellent Their Sunday roasts are to die for - well all their food was great and well presented with a classy feel

This pub is just lovely it's tradional inside with a fabulous beer garden. The food was delicious we had the Bouillabase with aolii baguette it was so tasty. Our room was clean and comfortable with a great view of the beer garden and the hills beyond. The thing that makes this pub stand out are the staff every single staff member we spoke to was lovely and so helpful. Big shout out to Leah the manager and Emma her deputy who were so lovely and willing to go the extra mile. Thank guys.

I had the bubble and squeak risotto for the main and the lavender and raspberry brulee and shortbread for the desset. The food was delicious. The service was great too!

Wow- what a gem of a place to stay. The room was immaculate, comfortable and great value for money. Evening dinner was delicious - and several vegan options to choose from. The pub was busy and buzzing despite being a Wednesday night. Evening bar staff and landlady were so welcoming. They even gave me a cup of tea to take away for my onward journey!! The vegan breakfast did not disappoint and was clearly cooked by a talented chef.

We stayed for three nights for my daughters wedding which was taking place locally. The staff were super friendly and did everything to make our stay great. We eat at the pub on three occasions over the four days and the service and food was wonderful. Beds were comfortable and everywhere was clean and tidy.

We were a party of 11 who dined here the night before my daughter’s wedding. We pre-ordered the food and we were spoilt for choice. The prices were really reasonable too. The pub is obviously popular as it was busy. We were seated and ordered drinks promptly. The food all came out together and was gorgeous. The sea bass was on a daal which was delicious!!! The other meals looked great too. There’s also a good range of desserts with specials too. The star of the night was the landlady who was amazing! She was so friendly and helpful and made us feel like regulars. She even ordered a taxi for 2 of the guests for the next evening after the wedding. What a warm and welcoming person!! We will definitely come back here, even though it’s a half an hour drive from home. This is a special little gem.

We were on a short overnight family reunion and had a wonderful stay at the Star Inn. After a friendly check in we were taken to our very recently and tastefully decorated room which is in a contemporary style yet still maintaining the old cottage feel. The bar area also has a nice mix between contemporary and old traditional warm pub ambience. The garden is huge with lots of outdoor seating. Fortunately the weather meant we could eat lunch alfresco and opted for a pub lunch in the garden. The double beefburgers had a homemade feel and were very tasty. The pub has an excellent choice of different beers and ales and the bar staff are very friendly and efficient giving very fast service. In the evening we ate in the restaurant . Menu is not huge but we all agreed the quality of the produce and the presentation of the dishes was excellent. All in all a great choice for a short stay and thanks to all the staff who made us so welcome.

We took over the Star Inn and descended with a wedding party of 20 in early August 2021. Guests stayed, meals were had drinks consumed.Nothing was too much trouble - the management and staff are to be complimented highly fir the professionalism attitude and help in making my family happy on my wedding day.Everything was exactly as its should be and the food was great.We shall be hurrying back for more of the same...

Outstanding food and service - lovely rooms - great selection of food and alcohol on the evening and a wonderful breakfast. Highly recommend

We asked for a few changes to the 'as advertised' on the menu and the staff could not have been more accommodating. One of our party, who was Vegan said it was the best Vegan breakfast she'd ever had.

The Star is our favourite local pub with food. This would be our first visit since the start of Lockdown and we were intrigued to try it out once it had opened for food. We chose to book to eat outside and selected a table that seemed suitable safely-distanced. I actually like the concept of being served at the table as opposed to have to compete with the drinkers at the bar to get served and place a food order in a Pub. The staff were brilliant and it was good to see that the Manager was still the same as previous. The adaptations were all appropriate and to be expected. The key to returning to your local is knowing you are safe while the experience is relaxing. The food (and the beer - 61 Deep) was as excellent as ever. Well done guys.

Visited The Star on Tuesday and was really impressed with everything they have got in place in regard to COVID-19. It was very busy, as expected due to the government offer, we sat in the garden and ordered food and drinks. We had to wait a while for our drinks but this was expected and we could see that all the staff were extremely busy. The staff were very attentive and friendly even though we could tell they were extremely hot and must have been tired doing all that running around! Food was great and thoroughly enjoyed sitting in the beer garden in the sun for a couple of hours. Amazing service, drinks and food and even better with the discount! Thanks to everyone at the Star ( and Boris of course!!)

Poor service when you sit in the garden. Went this evening to get a drink and this is the second time it has happened Really disappointed as did like going here but won’t be going again. Lost our drink order after 20 minutes wait, we had gone in and they said will be out in a minute. Only to be told lamely by the waiter with glasses we have lost your order. So on this news we decide to go elsewhere. He retorted whatever, we are busy. So we said bye and will not be visiting again. Whatever lovely customer service lots of other local pubs with excellent service.

So nice. Pleasant, friendly, helpful staff. All very well organised, all precautions in place. Really nice lunch Thank you Leah and staff. Lovely to return after Lock down. Just as nice and friendly only with restrictions.

My family and I ventured back to our beloved local pub. We were very impressed by their safety procedures implemented for the guests and staff. One way systems, temperature checks and details taken for track and trace along with table service! A brilliant time back at our favourite pub well done all at The Star Inn, West Leake!!

Had lunch here again a few days ago. Great service and friendly welcome as usual. Excellent, very high quality ingredients. Love the gardens too. We are so lucky to have this place locally. It's a while since we have visited - we won't leave it so long until the next time! Everything in place to make customers feel safe and secure at these times. Thank you.

Thank you Leah!! You have been a star for the community over the lockdown. Your friendly and helpful approach has really been appreciated. :0) The Waters Family

Fantastic staff, great pub food and the best pub garden in Loughborough. The service was brilliant, with everyone being really attentive to keeping people comfortable in the crazy COVID times we’re living in. Couldn’t ask for a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Also the brownies are amazing.

What a great place !!! My partner and I visited yesterday for a drink and some nibbles and the staff were fantastic, the decor and garden were excellent. These guys are seriously doing an excellent job keeping all of their visitors safe whilst also easing any anxieties and maintaining a relaxed and fun atmosphere.A+++ we will certainly be back soon

If you want a tasty meal in nice surroundings go to The Star. The staff were spot on, welcoming and engaging. My friend and I opted for good old fish and chips followed by a delicious cheese board. Great night - we'll be back!

We took our son out who is studying at Loughborough Uni, for Sunday lunch and it was perfect. The service was fast and very friendly and the food was delicious. Excellent value for money. The garden looked lovely - surrounded by fields - and the pub was very well kept. 'Loved it!

Highly recommend The Star for both accommodation and food. The staff are all welcoming and the facilities are excellent will be booking again.

Lovely welcoming pub , tastefully upgraded decor with added on restaurant & rooms. We came for Sunday lunch which was absolutely lovely, plent of veg & gravy. Unfortunately didn’t have room for pudding as we had had starters, maybe next time. We were astonished to see a bottle of becks blue cost £3.40 a bottle !!! & after having 6 between us this hiked our final bill up especially in our local they cost £1.80 so much for dry January!!!

Overnight business trip - the menu selection was excellent (the cauliflower starter was superb and the de-constructed Fish & Chips was an excellent idea). Thoroughly recommended

We have eaten here on many occasions and the food is always fantastic. The breakfasts are also worth a try at weekends as the quality is amazing.

This is an up and coming local country pub that does great food. We try to frequent this place as often as we can as the beers are good and the food excellent. I believe the owners also now own the Red lion in Kegworth. Well worth a visit and thoroughly recommended.

Plate piled high fantastic value for money, lovely log fire and very warm welcome. Would recommend for Sunday Lunch.

This is a great place to meet up with friends. The beef is good and the food is back on the menu. They have two roaring fires and the atmosphere is upper class quality pub.

Fantastic that it is up and running, food excellent, hospitality great. Thanks Leah, Dave and John. Lunch menu really good. Always a friendly smile. Nice and cosy with the real fires.

Had father in laws birthday here. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and to make him feel special. Food was great too, and plenty of it. Thanks Leah and team.

We attended a wedding function, the food and service were both excellent. All the plates of food we saw looked great.

Really nice country village pub not far from where I live that I didn't know existed until this bank holiday Monday.

We've dined at The Star Inn several times this summer. They've worked hard to make it an attractive and pleasant venue, both inside, on the terrace and in the garden. Now they have recently built guest bedrooms too. What a transformation of a small pub which also has a big garden.

Waitress had only been there a week and had no training and didn't know the menu at all. 4 of us ate and 2 of the meals were very poor. The Barnsley lamb chop was raw in the middle and impossible to even cut, food served on cold plates, some veg not cooked and some well over cooked. Thai curry sauce was like milk ! Ordered a side of Garlic Ciabatta and its not even Ciabatta just a part baked baguette. We sat at the first table in the restaurant and unfortunately next to the bar which was loud and lots of bad language not appreciated by my 80 yr old mother. Food also took 40 mins from order to table despite only one other small table taken in the Restaurant.

Had a recommendation from a friend. What a very good recommendation. Very good lunch time menu with good choice of beers as well in a beautiful sunny garden. I had a very nice salad.

The pub garden was apparently crowded and quite a few people in the rather dark and gloomy bar, too.

We called into this ovely country pub hot and thirsty .Fab old pub full of character and tasty food . Relaxed atmosphere lovely interior and outside seating available in garden also . Worth calling in it was a great find

We only stopped off here on the way back to the campsite.

Have been meaning to go to the Star for sometime. Found an occasion and went this week. Lovely pub serving well kept real ale. Food was formulaic and executed poorly. Will go back for the beer.

Visited on Friday last. Good service and quite a reasonable menu. We shared the fish platter with our friends which was very good, whilst three of us had Spanish Chicken which was regrettably not hot enough and had an overload of potatoes but acceptable. There was a good selection of beers and cannot fault the level of service. Will probably give it another try in the future. One of us had rump steak which was a decent size and could recommend.

lovely local dog friendly pub. Home cooked meals with good choice and quality. Burger a bit too rare for some in the group, I enjoyed the chunky chilli.

I love quite local to the “Pit house” as we know it and drive past to and from the motorway a lot but I hadn’t visited for Sunday lunch until today!

The Star Inn, situé en pleine campagne du Nottinghamshire, est une véritable auberge anglaise incluant un pub, un espace restaurant "The Pit House", un énorme jardin avec terrasse, 6 charmantes chambres doubles très propres et un grand parking gratuit.

We booked the Star Inn's restaurant for a family event to help celebrate the 90th birthday of my Father-in-Law. There were over 30 people attending the event, which was an informal lunch party. The whole afternoon was excellent and went very smoothly indeed. The food and service was of a very high standard and we can't thank David and Leah, the management team and their great staff enough for their high standards and attentiveness throughout the afternoon. We had a small choice of main courses and desserts and the food came out quickly and every plate looked very appetising - all guests said how much they enjoyed their food and there was very little left on the plates. Thoroughly recommended!

Stayed at the Star Inn overnight last weekend while attending a 80th birthday locally. Lovely pub with accommodation that is far nicer than you would normally expect from a pub, the attention to detail in the room was fantastic.. Breakfast was really good and they sorted a gluten free option for my wife without any problem.

I booked this at the last minute for a short notice business trip. as it was attached to pub i wasnt expecting much, but was pleastantly surprised at how nice the room was. Quite recently refurbished and to a decent standard. Breakfast was very tasty and plentiful. i can also recomends an evening meal there if you get the chance. also a treat not to be missed bis the mid week pub quiz.

After our first visit a while ago we decided to call in again for lunch. The pub was much busier this time round but we still found a nice table and ordered our food with a very pleasant young man. For the second time our food wasn’t too long in arriving , it was freshly cooked and piping hot. I was hoping to move on to one of the desserts but was that stuffed I yet again had to say no. Prices are very reasonable with the Meal for 3 of us including drinks just coming out at £38. I’d recommend anyone wanting to drive into the countryside around Loughborough/East Midlands area to call in to the Star Inn - you won’t be disappointed

Lovely welcoming pub with a great breakfast lunch and dinner menu! I only had a snack today but will soon be back with others to try more from the menu. Perfect country pub , now with rooms too!

We have been here several times over the years but only for a drink and have never eaten. Given the good reviews we thought we would give it a try. The sausage and mash trio was served in what looked a soup bowl so we weren’t keen the presentation. The expectation of creamy mash was somewhat different to what arrived on the plate. It was rather dry and far from creamy. The sausages were nice and the other dishes were just ok. Unfortunately it didn’t quite live up to our expectations of some sort of Gastro type pub experience. We thought the food tasted like regular pub food. Not bad and quite ok but not a wow.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch here - 3 roast beef and 3 sticky toffee pudding - what’s not to like simple but done very well! The place had a lovely buzz about it and return we will !

Lovely old pub with good food, friendly staff and real fires. The rooms have been recently redecorated to a high standard, they are peaceful and overlook open fields. Big car park, highly recommended, we will definitely return.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch here, on entering the pub a lovely welcome from a young bar man who sorted out drinks for us then showed us to are table lots of room at table with comfortable seating we passed a nice open fire which was lit lovely on a cool day,we had pork ,chicken and beef all cooked really well with plenty of vegetables and meat and a nice little touch of gravy in there own gravy boats presentation was great amount of food was enough everyone was pleased with there meals

Four of us enjoyed dinner at this attractive country pub. The wide selection of gins was appreciated. Our starters included a very good pate and unusual "popcorn" falafel each costing a very reasonable £5. The excellent New Yorker burger and fish and chips each cost £12.50. The batter on the fish was a little overdone but otherwise tasted good. The service from the waitresses was a little disappointing being neither attentive or engaging.

Just had a burger and chips and both were very good, a wide selection of good cask beers and ales, all the staff had smiles on their faces plus service was nice and efficient

Unfortunately the vegetables on the Sunday lunch were raw (table of 4 - 2 Sunday lunches ordered) undercooked cabbage and broccoli where you could not put your fork through- and 1 out of 4 (on each plate) roast potatoes undercooked - all to the point of being inedible. Mentioned this to two separate members of staff - and no comment or comeback. Had desert - still no comment or comeback.

We have been going to the star for the last three years or so, and the food here used to be a reason to go out of your way.

Popped in for a quick bite to eat at lunch time and was really impressed with the quality of food and real ales. Would definitely recommend a try and will be back again soon!

Lovely bed and breakfast in North Leics. Spotlessly clean, great service,delicious breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed here last Wednesday as it was convenient to the University campus. Very pleasantly surprised by the accommodation. The room was very new and clean and had a wonderful view into the English countryside from the balcony. Dinner was very good, ordered the rump steak rare, and got exactly that. Breakfast was also good with lots of choice. In the bar there was a big choice of big name and local beers. They are a Free-house so not restricted to one brewery. Best part of the stay was the service by two young and enthusiastic staff. Luke and Jess. Looking forward to my next stay

Visited The Star tonight as other local village pubs are not offering meals for one reason or another and pleasantly surprised as there new tenants and appear to be making efforts to lift the profile of the pub. The new tenant made an effort to come and welcome my wife and me and told us of the diferent meals offered on each of the week nights, we viewed the menu and was a good choice at very competitive rates. Tonight there was an open mike night with seemed to be well supported. Will be back tomorrow night for something to eat.

Stayed at The Star for two nights. Free parking, lovely large beer garden and terraced area.

Having been told by friends that The Star restaurant / pub was a nice venue and served good food, we decided to give it a try for our recent family get-together. The venue is in fact a nice place, offering off-road parking, a very large garden at the rear with a terrace and a cosy restauant inside.

It's such a lovely venue and we were looking forward to our meal. Unfortunately my burger arrived undercooked. I returned it and Ashburn it came back IT WAS STILL RAW. I let the waitress know and she did nothing about it... what a waste of money

My son and I stopped at the Star for an evening meal as we were staying in the area with friends. The pub itself is very nicely located in a rural setting and is nicely laid out, in that contemporary / traditional style that is now evident in many country inns. Our food was pretty decent: I had ham, egg and chips and my lad had a burger and then cheesecake. I had a pint and a half of Eagle IPA which was in peak condition. The service was slightly slow and the young lady behind the bar was professional but not especially friendly. One very bizarre thing was that food was being served just until 7pm on the evening of our visit, which is very restricting. I would have preferred to give The Star a Good rating rather than an Average, but it stopped short of being Very Good.

We've visited the pub before and thought we'd like to try the restaurant. Service was welcoming but quite slow for an early midweek evening. One starter failed to arrive and we were told it went to the wrong table! What did they do with it? Anyway, that was the last portion of that and by the time this was revealed it was too late. Similarly they forgot all about the coffee ordered.

Fantastic rooms and a lovely pub/restaurant. Bedrooms were very clean, comfortable and extra luxuries included which were a very nice touch. We had a very good night sleep, although must warn about the low aircraft flying over for airport, but this did not bother us.

I was lucky enough to stay here for a few nights in the newly renovated rooms. From the moment you walk in you are treated with country hospitality. Leah their manager went above and beyond during our stay, as we had a large group from Australia she accommodated all our needs. The food was delicious and such a picture pefect location.

Visited for the first time on Friday evening. Staff were very friendly, helpful and attentive. The wait for food was not excessive and we felt we had breathing space between courses. The food itself was excellent. We had two sharing platter starters between 4 - one would have sufficed but they were both delicious. Main courses were all very good and we all felt priced about right. Overall a very enjoyable evening and we'll certainly be returning.

Having booked dinner at The Star for our anniversary we decided to treat ourselves to an overnight stay in the new hotel. What a great evening we had. The Management and staff were all so warm and friendly and the food in the restaurant was superb. Our room was lovely - tasteful decor and so comfortable too with some thoughtful little touches. The full English breakfast included in the price takes some beating. A wonderful stay and special thanks to Leah and her team, we will be back next year.

I must admit that I did say "It will be dark if we have to drive any longer" despite it only being 1.59pm - but having a dog and being v hungry and a fussy eater I know there aren't many options in the country in February. The Star gave a fabulous warm welcome with 2 real fires; friendly staff and by far the best fish and chips (triple cooked - NO SEMOLINA!) and home- made tartare sauce and mushy peas. The hand-pulled Bass very drinkable and much admired by the locals. As Arnie would say "We will be back".

We visited the Star Inn with my sons on a visit to one of them at Loughborough University . We were very late in arriving but we received a lovely warm welcome and confirmation they were still serving food . Service was swift and efficient...

Lovely friendly pub, we stayed in there new hotel, the room was well presented, the decor was warm and cosy, the staff were very friendly and the hospitality was excellent. We have stopped in many hotels and this has been one of the best. They...

Love this place it's like having a pub in your front room. Friendly staff good, range of drinks and lovely food

After a chilly and sunny morning spent walking the hills around West Leake, we made it to the Star Inn...

Have enjoyed tonight a amazing festive menu meal! Starter of pate followed by a traditional turkey dinner and finished with...

We booked a table for 6 of us for Sunday lunch. (1.30pm) The nibbles we ordered pre-dinner took an hour...

We went ther3 for an evening meal. We were seated in the bar which was very busy. The staff were very attentive and were rushing about a bit. We ordered our meals, I had a steak and ale pie with mash potatoes and veg, it was so big, I was told it contained 1lb of beef, I could not eat it all and had to leave some. My wife had liver and bacon and left about a third of it as it was too big a meal. Can’t wait to go back to the B&B; so I can go again.

Stopped off here for lunch the other day and enjoyed it. The food was well presented and well cooked, the drinks reasonably priced (although the barman put ice in without asking, I'm not a big ice fan), the place was clean and the atmosphere good.

Walk into the Star on our way home. Absolutely starving. The pub looked beautiful and we were pleasently suprised by the garden to the rear...

Lunch on a dreary, rainy day with my father and partner. We ate in the bar rather than the restaurant. The pub wasn't very busy although there were a few other customers. I had the black pudding croquettes with fried egg which I enjoyed. The croquettes would have been better if the individual components could be distinguishable. The egg yolk was still runny. For me the tomato chutney wasn't the right sauce with the rest of the dish although it did go well with the chunky chips I shared with my father. The mayonnaise lacked flavour. If this dish had been served on a larger plate it would have been much easier to eat. My father enjoyed his brie and bacon panini which was pretty standard as panini go. Apart from the 'salt incident' my partner , whose go to choice fo a pub lunch is often ham egg and chips, thought the one provide here was average.

I really hate writing bad reviews...We moved in to the area a year or so ago, and were so pleased to find this place. The pies were to die for. Served in a proper pie dish (no pastry sides), with a light, crusty puff pastry lid and delicious fillings; tender beef in a rich sauce, creamy chicken and leek...home made chips, nicely cooked seasonal vegetables. Times have changed....went again recently and got a slab of under-cooked, tough shortcrust pastry with a dry, horrible, synthetic tasting meat filling (more like a pukka pie - only drier). Bought in oven chips and lumpy gravy in a jug. This is still a lovely pub, the service is quicker, and I should point out that this review is based only on this one unpleasant dish...but I am absolutely gutted. If someone knows where the old chef has gone, please feel free to share: his/her food was excellent!

Visited this lovely quaint pub on Sunday 30th July with a friend for lunch . Staff very friendly , food of high quality and large variety of drinks . Even though it was quite busy the staff were attentive and very helpful . Overall a lovely Sunday lunch .

We included The Star in our Bus tour after visiting and finding the welcome from all staff amazing. Such a lovely pub inside and out , great garden area which seated all 45 of us with problem . We were all made so welcome as soon as we pulled up in the coach. A lot of our party have said they were so impressed and will be re visiting, especially for the Gins and mixers! . Thank you so much all for helping make my birthday go without a hitch, we had a fabulous time .

We have had formal dinner, lunch and now snack lunch. ALL experiences good. Staff helpful, service quick, meals well designed

What a shame !!!!!!!I sent my dad here with a friend for lunch last week, it was terrible.They were the only two in the place all lunch time (what does that tell you)!! so consequently the atmosphere was non existent.The beer was so cloudy the barman gave him another pint which was similar!! But did apologise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They ordered food, it was presented so poorly it was diabolical!!!!They had 2 courses of which both were un appetising. My 85 year old dad came away £50 lighter !!!!!!!It is such a shame as the last time I went the food was really nice, but it was about 12 months ago. What a shame standards have dropped as it has the potential to be such a lovely village pub.Sorry won't be returning. It's a no no.Claire

Sharing fish platter from bar menuat £14.95 consisted of 2 small pieces battered salmon, 2 small pieces smoked mackerel , 8 prawns in oil, some sloppy mush that was passed off as salmon mousse, a piece of ciabatta about 4inch cut in half, and a pickled onion cut into four. Spoke to duty manager who said that chef "had short changed us" as there should have been a larger piece of bread.And that hed take the matter up with the chef.Still charged full price for a meal that was a sharer but only if you are on a high budget small portion diet.Current thinking is what was a good place to eat is now slipping into the overpriced under sized portion bracket.Dont anticipate us returning.

We came 5 years ago for the first time on day 1 of Vet school. 5 years on, graduation day and a nice venue to finish off a chapter. We sat outside in the garden and selected from a varied menu. Great burgers, fish finger sandwiches were ok but fish and chips was a bit disappointing. That aside, a great venue and nice staff.Thank you for the meals for our family over the past 5 years.

I've been here a couple of times over the years. The last time being 7/8 years ago. So when friends suggested we eat there I was cautious. After entering I was surprised at the contemporary decor throughout. We sat outside in the sun and ordered the food. It was well presented and tasted delightful.

Called in to see what it was like for a drink has I pass it every day going to work. with the thought of going back one day for a meal. That wont happen now after being charged £7.95 for a medium white wine and lemonade and a small bottle of coke. don't mid £5 or £6 but not nearly £8 for 2 drinks. So no return for a meal to this pub. Sadly it did looks nice a proper village pub.

6 of us Visited the Star Inn Sunday lunch. Service was quick and friendly. Sunday lunch looked very good, I opted for the Cajun chicken burger was was very well prepared and presented. Opted for the trifle as a dessert which was very disappointing as was the Elton mess mostly thick cream and not really worth the money. Although the next table ordered the salted caramel cheesecake which looked very good..so my loss.Would recommend and will return

The main courses for the Sunday lunch were excellent. Nice choice and all perfectly prepared. Only slight point was a 45 minute wait for the meal. Good choice of puddings but had to criticise the 'Eton Mess' - mainly cream with only a little fruit and meringue - very poor. Staff friendly and and pleasant.

Called in after a disapointing attempt to get food further up the road in Wymeswold.Very pleasantly suprised at the quality and quantity of the meal from what is an unassumingly deceptive "little pub".We had the belly pork which was cooked to perfection, with a sauce to die for.Good sized portion Beer good with a very good choice of drinks available.Service was excellent , all staff very pleasant and attentive.Nice looking menu with plenty of choice , many a little different from normal pub food.Highly recommended and we will definately make a special visit to call again.

Lovely atmosphere. Pretty surrounding, lovely outdoor sitting area,open fires. Beautiful decor complemented country feel. Dogs welcome in bar area. High end spirits and mixers on offer .Menu was promising but felt slight disappointment in Roast lunch. Everything on plate no extra side vegetables​.Food wasn't all that hot.Salmon dish was very tasty and nice alternative .Would pay another visit

Visited on Easter Saturday night, expected it to be packed but they was only us and one other couple and a further couple came in later so not a lot of atmosphere which surprised me for a Saturday night.The service was fast and efficient (should have been given that hardly anyone in) and the quality of the food was very good. The menu is not that extensive and I was surprise when one of the starters was not available. I don’t usually have steak out as normally it is overpriced and never as good as having at home but there was not much on the menu that I fancied so decided to have the steak. It was excellent one of the best I have had in a restaurant and was reasonably priced.It is a lovely old pub just needed a few more customers on the night we visited to give it an atmosphere on this occasion. The last time we visited it was very busy.The quality of the food was excellent.

Happy atmosphere, friendly staff, lovely roaring fires .. what a great pub - not eaten there yet, but the recent reports are very good!

We visited here for Sunday lunch and I would very much recommend it. I would advise booking in advance as it seemed to be very busy and I can understand why having tasted the food. Very friendly and helpful staff too.

Stopped off for a quick lunch, this is a proper English pub. Wood fires, good beer selection, great food helpful and friendly staff that could not have been done more to make us feel welcome . And they are happy to allow dogs in which is fantastic, just like English pubs used to be . This is well worth a visit

Took the family for Sunday Lunch. The Pedigree was sublime and so creamy. Even though I had come with an appetite this just got it salivating even more. Went for the Prawn Cocktail myself, my wife shared a baked Camembert with my daughter and son's girlfriend and my son had squid. All wolfed down before a mixture of slow roasted lamb shoulder and topside of beef. Again all cooked to perfection and both tasty and filling. Rounded off with a crumble and custard. Great value for money and will be back soon.

Visited here for Sunday lunch with the family. The pub is very much in keeping of what I would expect of a traditional village inn. They serve a good selection of wines and ales. We were seated in the bar area and wished we had brought the dog as this part was dog friendly. The food was very good and the portions were plentiful. We all thoroughly enjoyed what we had.

My wife and I had been for a glorious walk across nearby Fox Hill and popped into the Star Inn for lunch. Very pleased we did. Nicely appointed, very friendly welcome, good choice of beers and soft drinks. We shared the antipasto platter which was excellent. Looking at the menu options for Valentines and Mothering Sunday suggested we will be returning for a full dining experience.
