I recently had a meal at this restaurant and was blown away by the experience. The food was simply outstanding—every dish was crafted with such care that you could truly taste the quality and thought that went into it. The presentation was beautiful, and it’s clear that the team takes real pride in what they do. Can’t wait to return!

I visited The Tickled Trout for breakfast. We arrived just after 10.30am and I was told that breakfast service stopped at 10.15am. I queried this and showed the team the menu online, which states that breakfast ceases at 11am. I was told by a gentleman on a laptop that he'd asked the web team to change breakfast timings the previous day and that breakfast ceases at 10.30am. I asked if the team would mind seeing if the chef would serve us as we'd made a special trip to visit the pub for breakfast and was told that the kitchen was closed. The gentleman on the laptop asked if the menu was a screenshot and I replied that it was not and showed him. We were offered coffee or tea but declined. We left and went to our car. A few minutes later the gentleman on the laptop appeared in the rain and knocked on the window pointing at the screen on his laptop stating that breakfast ends at 10.30am, which we felt was rather rude. I contacted Balfour Winery who own the pub and received a prompt apology and the promise of an investigation. One month on and I have received no reply. I will certainly take my custom elsewhere!

Very welcoming and lovely staff. You get shown round. A couple of things that could be improved. The sun had been on the room all day. If the blind had been pulled down from the morning it possibly wouldn't have been like an oven. The strawberry and cream sundae is £10 for this you literally get a whole glass of warm whipped cream and strawberry sauce with about 3 slices of strawberries, half a meringue and one tiny scoop of ice cream. A few more ingredients at the bottom wouldn't mean I'd feel like i've just eaten a glass of cream

Luke's Tree is a lovely room with a huge, comfortable bed and we had an excellent supper of crab cakes with mayonnaise and bruschetta with heritage tomatoes followed by rump of lamb with gratin potato, greens and minted pea puree & fillet of sea trout.

Great country pub. Plenty of parking, a good selection of beers and so.e really tasty food. Lots of outside seating and a great covered area next to the river if it turns a bit inclement. They have rooms to stay in, but I didn't use them so can't review them accurately. Recieved a warm welcome from the bar staff and some great menu suggestions. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Lovely little country pub just out of the way making it nice and quiet on a summer evening, relaxing in the garden. The full English breakfast was huge and well worth it. Only downside was the bed creaked so much that would wake you up each time one turned over. Other than that was such a comfy mattress.

Some pubs have really upped their game in recent times, and the Tickled Trout is right up there with them. The interior has been updated in a charming and unfussy way; the staff have personality and excellent customer service skills; and the menu has interesting dishes with good quality ingredients well cooked and presented. All this makes a visit here a really pleasant experience. The beer on tap was from Musket brewery and was in good condition.

Stayed for 2 nights with 2 rooms. Ate breakfast twice, dinner once, and did the Sunday roast. Wonderful clean rooms, very friendly staff. So nice to have a public footpath on the side of the property to walk on after dinner. Some reviews say the food cost was high - we found it to be in line with every other pub and restaurant of this caliber and suspect these people don’t go out often. Would recommend and would come back again

My Partner and I have stayed in 7 hotels in the last 15 days in the south of the UK, and we can say without doubt that we kept the best till last. The tickled trout is a beautiful boutique hotel with gorgeous large rooms ,and a spacious modern bathroom.Check in was easy, done by Charlie and a young girl who both came out to help us with our luggage. We went down for dinner later on which was wonderful, and even with a loud family in the dining room, the young staff handled them very professionally, what a credit to this business they are, I’m sorry I didn’t get the girls names but Charlie was a fabulous guy and a pleasure to deal with.Well done team.

Pre booked tables for breakfast with Santa. Shambles. 20 min wait to get seated. 25 mins wait for order. We had ti leave the table and leave, as they were disorganised hadn't set up properly and couldn't cater for all pre booked tables. I think maybe 6-7 tables walked out. Wasted 90 mins of our morning a family together. Poor waitresses working, as clearly was a management issue with organising the whole set up. Usually a lovely place and decent service but you guys seriously dropped the ball.

The meal was average at best. The Yorkshire pudding was too dry and crispy and there was not a lot of gravy. One of the party had gluten free fish and chips but the fish was just a plain bit of cooked fish so really bad at catering to gluten free, especially for the price.the sticky toffee pudding was good though. Had to pre order and the service was still really slow. One of the staff was rude to me when I said we had been told there was custard available. I wouldn’t rush back here, which is a shame as I had heard good things about it.

Fantastic Sunday roast in a lovely country pub. The pub was really busy and had a great atmosphere. We had lamb and beef, both cooked perfectly, and the veg was equally well cooked. We have eaten here a few times over the last few years and it's always been good but they just seem to have raised their game the last few times we've attended. This probably explains why they get so busy now. Also an area that's dog friendly is a bonus.

First time I have been to a Balfour pub. The food was ok, but the service completely unexceptional. There was only a table of three when we arrived (later another group of three came, then a two over two hours) so not busy at all, and yet we had to wait for everything. Ordered a bottle of water to start and then never asked if we wanted a drink again. It took ages to clear our plates away, or for anything to happen really. Just felt like an after thought. Would not recommend or return, or bother with another Balfour Restaurant. Quite simply if you want to look like an upmarket restaurant you have to provide attentive professional service.

After knowing this was lovely many years ago we decided to go for a family lunch. We arrived early and ordered drinks whilst awaited the rest of party. It then took 35 mins to order a drink at the bar as the staff hadn’t yet turned up for shift or didn’t know what they were doing. We finally sat down for our table and we’re told they had run out of menus and would be back.15 mins later no menus so I asked and they said we had pre ordered. After speaking to the team and realising that they had muddled us with a later family that had preordered they brought us menus. It had now been 30 mins since we had seated and we had an order taken. Another hour to get the starters out of Camembert, bread and pork bites. The breads were stale and just heated to a crisp in an oven.. mains came out 15 mins later these seemed a little better but no staff came to ask if all ok etc. we decided we wouldn’t go for puddings as we had now been here for so long. We asked for the bill never came. Asked another waiter never came 20 mins later I had to go and get the bill myself from the bar. I get you could be understaffed but I think on observation staff needed more hospitality training and awareness. With one on bar and two staff on front of house and it wasn’t overly busy this should have been done with ease if competently trained.. Would I return again or recommend??Unfortunately not.

We visited this restaurant on a Saturday evening, we were surprise at how empty it was, unfortunately we found the food to be average at best, the starters are small portions and overpriced. For main I had the trout which was cooked nicely but the noodles didn’t have much taste and the vegetables were just warm and dumped on top of the noodles and tasteless. The desert was microwaved. The staff were all very young and appeared to be inexperienced, whilst they were polite they didn’t tell us about the changes on the menu or that some sides were not available until we ordered. We were asked if we wanted water for the table it didn’t arrive, and I ordered a 2nd glass of wine which also didn’t arrive. We went to the bar to pay as no one came to us, and when we mentioned the 2nd glass of wine had not been served they said they didn’t know what one I had had before so didn’t bring it. This was the first time of using this restaurant for many years and we thought we’d give it a try, we won’t be returning.

Disappointing lunch at The Tickled Trout today. My wife's burger and chips was cold and had to go back to be re-heated. When she got it back she said it was bland. My sole was a small portion and was served on the bone on top of the potatoes, under the veg. It should be served filleted or if on the bone then should be served next to the rest of the food so the bones can be seen. Or at least the waiter should mention it is on the bone. I didn't realise it hadn't been filleted until I got a mouthful of bones! It was dangerous. My sister had Roast beef and said it was good. The main waitress/bar manager was surly. The rest of the staff were ok.

We visited for Sunday lunch. Staff were friendly and efficient. Car parking was easy. We both had Sunday roasts. Quality was mixed - the sides of Pigs in Blankets and Cauliflower Cheese were very good, roast potatoes were average - not crispy enough and a big stodgy. Unfortunately the roast meat itself was disappointing- the roast pork was too thin and was really no better than school dinners. The beef was worse - very overcooked and dry and not a great piece of meat. We had one dessert, the chocolate brownie with miso caramel, which was good. There is a good selection of wine - including most of the Balfour range and the overall price is reasonable

Decided to lunch at this venue for the first time today for my birthday. Was very busy so had high hopes! We were extremely disappointed with the food served. The portions were exceptionally small and certainly not worth the prices charged at all. Very disappointed....

We were a bit unsure about booking here for lunch given some of the reviews but were swayed by the lovely-sounding menu. It turned out to be the right decision: the staff were extremely helpful and friendly and the food (risotto and mussels) were absolutely...

As you will see by my profile, I am no stranger to dining out. I review as I find and do so fairly I believe. The starter was superb, the triple trout platter was delicious. I asked if the roast beef was rare and the...

Four of us visited the Tickled Trout on Saturday to celebrate a birthday. It wasn't very busy at all and i soon realised why!. Firstly, the beer selection is poor. Only one bitter on tap according to the waitress, and that was some kind of...

We went out for dinner on Thursday. The first thing which impressed me about the menu was the locally sourced ingredients, and the fact that there were at least 6 trout dishes on the menu, which did NOT, thank goodness, have an abundance of burgers...

Our children took my wife and I for Mothers Day lunch. We were welcomed on arrival. We were extremely well looked after by Hannah who was very attentive and making a fuss of all the Mums in the restaurant. There was a nice relaxed feel...

Dreadful service and food. Kept waiting for service, menus, drinks, tables and food. The food was inedible. We had to send back and complained. An absolute disaster for Morhers Day celebrations. Awful place.

This was a nice little pub previously for food but now is atrocious. Overcooked and overpriced but most importantly- just not nice food. Service extrem6slow- will not come ever.

Popped in for lunch with my wife and the pooch. This pub has always been beautifully appointed with great facilities but now the food has finally come up to the standard befitting of the environment. This is a world of difference from my last visit...

Great village feel. We both had roast turkey meal from their Sunday menu. Amazing food! Turkey was plentiful and so soft and moist. Loads of veg too. Including cauliflower cheese, carrots, parsnips, peas, roast potatoes, stuffing, homemade Yorkshire, gravy boat. Amazing value for money. We didn't book either. Turned up at 3ish. We was looked after at our table by Sue who was very friendly and welcoming. Service charge is not included on the bill and when paying via the card machine, there is no prompt to leave a tip. As the experience was so good, I had to ask how to leave a tip via the car payment machine. Sue then adjusted the payment display to allow me to leave her a tip. I've never had that before. I highly recommend this restaurant from my experience. Thanks Sue and all the staff.

Criminal prices for what you get. Food was subpar and the atmosphere was dull at best and depressing at worst. Staff were unfriendly. Glad I didn’t take the kids.
