Very disappointed to spent a lovely Sunday catching up with friends, only for the land lady to shout and swear at our children and then disappear “walking her dog” to avoid us. In future if you have a problem with someone’s children, you should come a see a parent not swear at a 7 and 8 year old!

Extremely disappointed..... Very limited menu. No atmosphere at all on arrival. Waitress had no personality what so ever. Burger came in a brioche bun and was very greasy..... A complete waste of money, wouldn't ever recommend this place to anyone. Used to visit the three horse shoes a lot, and due to new management we thought we would give it another go, but really wished we hadn't bothered

Food was absolutely delicious, arrived very quickly, and was very well presented. However the menu was extremely limited, no grill menu and was told the chef is unwilling to compromise on the food. Overall a pleasant experience.

Perfection. There’s nothing like it. We had a one of the specials as starter, garlic mushrooms. Unbelievably juicy and full of flavour For mains we had a special again, the duo pork with pork gravy and all the trimmings. Never had a Sunday roast so beautiful. Seeing as the dinner was so lovely we couldn’t resist dessert.. sticky toffee pudding with a toffee sauce and fresh strawberries. 10/10 and thank you to all the staff here too it was a perfect day

We went as a family here - lacked any sort of skill or wow factor. Portions were extremely average (on small side) for the price paid. Service was ok. Menu was ridiculously small, so don’t go if you are even slightly fussy. A very average night made into a overall pointless boring dinner.

We walked from our campsite ( just over an hour) not disappointed at all food was hot and plenty of it good menu for a Sunday. The staff were very friendly even offered us a lift back to our campsite (which we declined needed to walk off our meal).

We told them that it was poor service and could they discount drinks due to us having to go else where. Replay was no as it’s not there fault it was the kitchens fault for not letting them know. So for and experience or a recommendation I will not be going there again and will be telling people to avoid there. Very very poor service

Food, after a wait, was good. I thought having several children running around the restaurant was unacceptable during our evening meal. The noise was relentless, I didn't complain as it seemed acceptable by the staff. We left as soon as the parents decided its bed time for the kids around half eight PM. Not sure if we will be returning anytime soon.

Very disappointed with our visit today after my brother recommended it. When we arrived we hadn't even sat down and the young lady was asking what we would like to drink, we had to wait to order our food when all the young girls were just wandering around. The food then took ages to come at least half an hour, 3 of us had a roast dinner which was lovely, my husband had fish which was full of bones. Then 3 of us had finished eating but mum was just finishing hers when the young lady came and took our plates away, I thought this was very rude. I am only commenting because unless people bring things to your attention they can't be rectified

We went there for food the other day. The menu wasn't much cop for a lunch time menu. So we had the hollumi fries each. The plate come out with 5 fries on it. When we asked the lad behind the bar what the hell this was, he just shrugged and said they ran out. So we asked if we seriously had to pay a fiver each for the dish and he smirked and said yes. Customer service not there. Won't go back in a hurry.

Went here on a bit of a whim but definitely did not regret it. Pub is owned by a husband and wife and I think it is an independent pub, not part of any chain. My partner and I had a Chicken Katsu burger and chips and we bot thought it was absolutely delicious. The chips were big and chunky and nice and fluffy inside. The was loads of breaded chicken in the burger. Chicken was lovely and moist, the breaded outside had a good crunch and the Katsu curry sauce was exactly like it should be. My Mum had the King Prawn and Patagonian Scallop Linguine which was a big surprise, she usually goes for Fish and Chips. Anyway she loved it, the Prawns were nice and big and she thought they had a fabulous taste, the scallops were tasty and the Pasta was just right. Service was great, landlady was very friendly and welcoming. I had a lovely pint of Barry Island IPA. Food arrived in good time but we weren't in any rush. Young girl who took the plates away was lovely also. So far three mains and three drinks it came to £43 approx which I thought was excellent value based on the experience. If I'm in the area again I will try and remember to return. Support the independent pubs!!!

Atmosphere is wonderful and very peaceful, food is passable. Staff are quiet and helpful. Ordering process is uniquely hands off. I had some nice banana pancakes for a late breakfast; however my review is necessarily poor because after my last visit ended I was violently ill when I got home for roughly 20 minutes, and then voided my bowels for another 10. As such I can’t recommend you eat here.

There was a lady locked in the accessible toilets (she was okay, albeit.. drugged up.) had to climb an obscene amount of stairs with my walking stick (MS) to the other toilets while staff flapped. Staff were unaware that the lady had been in there since before we had arrived (90 mins earlier), but they were familiar with her. Staff were not remotely apologetic for the inconvenience and struggle to get upstairs. It just put a dampener on the experience. Food was very nice though.
