We’ve been here a couple of times now for a family Sunday Lunch and never been disappointed. The food comes out quick and has decent sized portions for the hungry. We’ve always found the service to be spot on, but on this occasion perhaps it was too over attentive. Firstly there’s loads of staff on duty which is great for fast service, but we got the impression they didn’t have set tables to look after, so this resulted in being asked several times by different members if we had ordered our drinks. Likewise for the main courses. We simply replied with a smile that has we had and laughed it off…several times. The food was hot and delicious with lashings of gravy and the Yorkshires beat mine every time. A good selection of fresh vegetables came on side dishes. I was happy to see extra roasters hidden under the trio of meats I had ordered. All in all, a good Sunday lunch treat out. Now this is where they lose a point….the plate with the bill on it was proudly presented on the table in front of me with the words “here”s your bill”…while my wife was still halfway through her pudding. I had neither asked for it nor were we even over an hour sat there so we’re well within any set table time. Surprised, I just paid it, but immediately afterwards felt a little annoyed at having to pay before we were even finished. Was asked by my wife not to say anything as to spoil the meal out. So top marks for the food, but perhaps that staff member was a little over eager.

A terrible experience from start to finish. We were there as a group of 6 so not a big group. We waited 45minutes for someone to take our order, which we had to prompt them to do. We ordered soft drinks and when they arrived they were all flat. We ordered 4 Sunday dinners, cod and chips, scampi and chips and a kids meal. The wait in itself was horrendous. The Sunday dinners arrived and then we had to wait another 15 minutes for the veg. The veg was very hard and the Yorkshire puddings were very oily and stale. Not one member of staff came over to ask if everything was okay or if we needed more drinks. We had to go to the bar ourselves for everything we wanted. Once we were finished a number of staff kept walking past looking at our table and not one of them came to clean the table. We went up to ask for the bill, after 20 minutes of the bill not arriving we went to the bar to pay. As we were ready to leave a member of staff came over to clear the table and ask if everything was okay, we told them all the issues that we had but the member of staff wasn’t really bothered about our complaints. Wouldn’t recommend this pub to anybody, the services was on another level.

After reading the reviews my wife and myself decided to try the Sun Inn today. The service was superb and all the staff were so friendly and welcoming and the food was absolutely fantastic. My wife had the lasagne which she said was delicious whilst I opted for the rump steak which was cooked exactly as I asked it to be and was one of the best I've tasted for years. Will definitely be returning.

Traditional pub with a lovely atmosphere. Often come here with friends for the Sunday pub quiz (8pm) - shout out to Phil who runs a brilliant quiz, made even better by the food at half-time. Only downside is that the drinks are a little pricey but overall it’s an excellent pub.

My review is primarily based on the Sunday evening pub quiz. The atmosphere is first class. The quiz is great and they serve food for everyone included in the price.. Only reason I haven’t given 5 stars is because the drinks are a little pricey. Good overall experience!

We were welcomed by an unwelcoming waitress and “have you got a table booked ?” after clarifying we did not were we were sternly warned it would be a 40 minute wait, despite not being put off by the cool welcome and the wait for food we took our seat. The restaurant was surprisingly quiet and no one appeared to be waiting for food. When I ordered the food I was again reminded the food would be 40 mins in case I had forgotten 5 minutes earlier. During our wait 2 chefs were back and forth trying to resolve an issue with a blocked gent’s toilet, not an ideal environment for chefs to be working, hopefully they at least washed their hands! After waiting close to an hour our food arrived which was thankfully good. Lasagne, steak and ale pie and a chicken kebab. After the meal I needed to use the toilet but as the gents was out of order I used the accessible toilet. Sadly this toilet was also broken as it didn’t flush and the tap was hanging off the sink. Pretty poor toilet facilities.

The rating of one star for food isn't because it was bad but because they stopped serving at 6:00. It would be helpful to advertise this - I was really looking forward to something to eat. Bar staff was helpful with other suggestions of where to eat and I'm sure I would have enjoyed the food had it been available

We called in for a Sunday lunch having been to a festival in the area. I had the trio of meats and my partner had the roast lamb along with all the trimmings. I had telephoned the previous day to book but was told there were no tables but if we were to arrive early then we would get seated. We arrived for it opening at 12 and were one of the first in a large queue. As we didn’t book a table in advance we were given a bar table which was fine as it was pretty busy with those who had booked. The staff were very attentive with us and other diners too. The food arrived promptly and was absolutely delicious! Lots of meat, veg and a huge yorkhsire pud and an extra jug of lovely gravy. I had the sticky toffee pud to finish with which was also delicious! We will certainly be back soon!

My daughter (9) came here with her Dad when they were on holiday in the area a few weeks ago and she's been raving about it ever since, so they recently took me to see the place and I can see why she liked it so much. All of the staff were lovely and attentive but one member in particular, Megan, blew me away as she remembered my daughter, even down to her usual order, and made her feel so comfortable. They even had a hug at the end of the night. Oh and she got us some potato skins which weren't on the menu but were my daughter's favourite. Would definitely come back

Lovely dog friendly pub. The staff were great and ensured the dogs were well looked after. The food was reasonably priced and although we had to wait a bit longer than I would have normally liked it was worth it. The food was amazing (chef's kiss). There was plenty of it and the quality was epic! The chips were really good and everyone in the family said it was very good. The atmosphere is good and I would definitely recommend coming here for lunch. I cannot understand the poor reviews as we found it to brilliant.

We were ignored by the staff from the moment we arrived. No amount of eye contact would persuade them to take our drinks order, our food order, remove our empty plates, or bring us the dessert menu. Ai went to the bar three times to place drinks orders and ask for plates to be removed. Very disappointed with the service.

Sadly too many dogs.....it has spoiled the restaurant. Dogs were only allowed in the bar which was fine, but 7 dogs in an eating area and some were less than well behaved.

The soup of the day was roasted vegetable with smoked pancetta, wow this was delicious. We also had the Atlantic prawn starter which was perfect consistency of prawns and sauce. The children had chicken nuggets which were homemade and absolutely the best we have ever tasted. We had the chicken and haggis, and lamb shepards pie for main which were both 10/10. High quality food, delightful vibe and excellent service and we will 100% be back here.

We call into the Sun Inn probably once or twice a month. Myself and my partner called in yesterday Friday 26th April for lunch. We both ordered fish and chips. We both agreed we have never had tastier fish and chips. The fish was cooked beautifully and I have never tasted batter like it. We told the waitress how beautiful the food was and she told us a new chef had just started and he was cooking today. We told her we noticed an improvement in the quality of the food. We will definitely be back more often after this experience.

Had metal in my onion rimgs, was asked if it was a filling, I don't have any fillings, two separate bits of metal, was pit off eating anymore, the side of chips to go with this meal arrived late I passed to one of my guests, was given £11 discount. My husbands arrived a while after his meal. He was given peppercorn sauce instead of Diane sauce, which another guest had requested to go with their steak, but that guest didn't get a steak cos there wasn't any steaks left, hence didn't need the sauce. To add insult to injury when getting the bill there was an extra £40+ on our bill, apparently new member of staff had added other customers food and drink on our bill. Absolutely disgusted, travelled from east lothian for my nephews birthday. Won't be back I work hard and don't expect to work out someone else's mistakes, and bits if metal in my meal. REALLY !!!

Standards seem to be slipping, but maybe they just have the B team working on Saturdays? We’ve been regulars here for nearly 15yrs and have always loved it. It’s never been back to what it was before it closed due to the lockdown though unfortunately, maybe they lost some good staff during the shut down I don’t know. The last few times we have visited have been a Saturday which is why I mentioned. Maybe they have the B team working to save the better staff for the busy Sunday, but each of the last times we’ve been there has been small issues with the food but today I was really disappointed with my meal as half of what I was served was inedible! I ordered the belly pork, which I’ve had just about every visit in 2024. I’ve gotta admit that the “crispy” description on the menu is at best hitty/missy, some days great others it’s chewy. Maybe if consistency is beyond some other the kitchen staff then maybe it could be possible to remove the crackling and serve it up separately to make it easier, the meat though is usually spot on. My issue with today’s food and service though was that what menu describes as the “black pudding crushed potato” which I’ve had easily 10+ times and enjoyed, was on this occasion totally inedible! There was other things mixed into it, which I’d imagine from a H&S stand is a big no as we were not asked about allergies! The stack had a massively overpowering smoked flavour to it, it was like eating a kipper! I gave my wife a taste and she immediately spat it out! It was foul! I was just about finished the belly pork and veg when a waiter came over to ask how our food was and I mentioned how unhappy I was with the item, he went to ask the kitchen what was different and came back and said sometimes they add pancetta to it…. Now I’ve had pancetta and I do think there was pancetta in it, but I’ve never had any that tasted as strong as that! He did offer to bring me some chips or mash instead but I only had a couple of mouthfuls of food left so I declined, all the waiter said was “I’m sorry you didn’t like it” and walked off. A while later when everyone was finished eating a blonde waitress came to clear our plates and asked how everything was….. again I explained my disappointment in my (obviously) untouched black pudding potato, again the response was “sorry” and she took our plates. Now I wasn’t expecting a free meal or anything but an offer to knock a few pounds off for the obviously untouched item would of been reasonable thing to do, since the item was not as described on the menu, and unlike it has been on any of the numerous times I’ve had it. If this is to be the recipe going forward then please say so on the menu, not just for people that could be allergic to any of the unmentioned ingredients but also for the people that don’t was kipperesque flavoured spuds with their belly pork! Also can I appeal to the management to bring back a proper specials board! It brought more variety for regular visitors that could get bored with the same menu for months on end. It was great to come and get swordfish or a nice lamb rump dish now and again yet since lockdown the “specials” board has been 1: soup of the day 2: Roast meat sarnie 3: a Sausage….. I’m sorry but non of which come across in any way as “Special”

With some family away for the weekend I fancied a break away from cooking and we decided to treat ourselves for a Sunday lunch out for a change. Booked the day before and got in for 12pm no problem. Me having a hearty appetite and the belly to match, ordered the trio of meats as I couldn’t make my mind up. The availability of a vegetarian cheeseburger kept the teenage daughter happy and my wife went for the beef as always. All three meals promptly arrived and the portions were huge. The meats were cooked to perfection and the Yorkshires were that big, I was still finding extra roasters underneath 10 minutes later! Teenage daughter was defeated by the huge vegetable burger that came with wedges and salad. The only thing that stopped me giving full marks was the fact the food was dished up on cold plates meaning it cooled rather quickly, otherwise everything was perfect and too quality. As it was a treat, the cheesecake and sticky toffee pud were sampled and got the thumbs up too. I like this place for a number of reasons. The great food, the excellent staff (honestly, they really looked after us) and the feeling of the place that maybe posh folk call the “ambiance”. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back sooner rather than later. Recommended!

Family gathering on a snowy December Saturday, we were not disappointed by the reviews we consulted ahead. Plenty food, even too much for one meal. The belly of pork was unreal …and massive! We had doggy bags to take home which fed lunch for 4 people the day after! If I had a suggestion to write it would be to improve lighting as nobody could see very well inside our plates or each other. I would recommend this place if you want to eat a traditional meal well cooked. Ps staff very nice and attentive, thank you!

Great pub for beer.... avoid at all costs for food. We had a meal for 6... i really don't know where to start how poor the food is. If you like good quality food... do not go here. If you are reading this Sun inn... start by getting higher quality ingredients and then get some chefs who understand what good quality is and how to cook it.... not even the chips were nice!

After our food arrived we were never approached to ask if anything was needed, if we wanted another drink, if we wanted any desserts or anything. It’s like here’s your food, that’s all we need to do. Now leave! Also the restaurant itself was freezing cold. Please turn your air conditioning off and turn the heating on. One of our party kept their coat on during the meal and we left early because of both the shocking service and the cold pub. Sad!

I have reviewed the Sun Inn before. It used to be my local when l lived across the road in Deuchar Park. I have always given the Sun great reviews but l cannot do this again. WE came in June and the menu had changed and t was now all fast food. The manager I (assume) explained that this was the the summer menu. Thirty years in Fraud told me that the smarmy git was bull shitting. We ordered our food and it was dreadful. They knew we were regulars and had always praised the food in the past. To our surprise we were not charged for the drinks as an opology. The Manager apologised as we left and said they hoped to see us back soon. We did not. We went shopping in Morpeth and decided to give it another try expecting the "winter"menu as per Mr Smarmy. No it was the same rubbish.

We called in on a whim for early tea. It was pleasantly busy and had a nice vibe. The service was a little slow, but as I said it was busy. I ordered the Mountain of ribs, and it was a mountain! Lovely chips too.

Dined here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. My wife had the Beef and Ale pie and I had Lamb Koftas. Both meals were delicious. The menu has a good range of meals at reasonable prices. Service was good with friendly staff.

The food is absolutely delicious and very good value with large portions. The staff are very pleasant although it takes a bit of time to get attention if you need something. We will definitely be back

Fantastic food and service. Sat 14th October and 4 of us (adults) book a table for 7pm. The staff were on the ball with drinks and service. The starters and mains were fantastic. We all had a different meal and starter and everything was cooked...

Went in for takeaway fish and chips on my way home from the cinema, just across the road. It was the second time I'd been to Paxtons because the first time was so good. I had cod and chips, and it was lovely - crispy batter, nicely cooked fish with decent chips, and a good sized portion. Well recommended.

Just visited with my daughter and granddaughters for ice creams. Saturday 2.30pm. I’ve got the say the girls serving have absolutely no people skills, in fact I would say the girl actually serving us was rude! No customer see at all!

Service was shocking. Believe it to be a manager, she had dark hair, slim, older lady. She was so so rude. Never apologised once for the poor service she offered. Would walk away while we were answering her questions. Never apologised for not having starters we wanted or for things not being ready. We had no drinks our entire meal, asked THREE seperate times. They were brought over and she never apologised even though our meal was done. I then told a young waitress (who did nothing wrong) that the manager was so rude and we were unhappy with the service, she never did anything about it or took money off but I’d expect she will be scared of that manager as I would be if I was a young girl. We then asked to pay for the food; nobody came over, we asked THREE times. In the end we put our coats on and decided not to pay. But at the last second a young girl came over and I couldn’t bare to tell her we were unhappy, as she hadn’t done anything wrong and I’m sure she is a good waitress. We couldn’t bare to be in there a minute longer. The food was lovely but the service was horrifying.
