Left a five star review when I first went in. Unfortunately if the land lady isn't there the beer is terrible. I was served a pint and told that it was going to be flat. Very disappointed.

What an amazing venue, huge outdoor seating and play area for the children and sporting events... With enough free carparking for about 40 cars Came here to do some work this morning and found another one of Punch Taverns hidden gems Maria was a great host, opened up early for me even after a late finish... Thank you 🤗 Sandra was busy cleaning making everywhere ship shape after a busy night... Doing a fantastic job, as photos show The Victoria is looking bright and clean. The climbing frame and abundance of safe (enclosed) grassy playing areas, along with the covered outside seating and smoking areas, makes this an ideal location to entertain the kids while enjoying the drinks and facilities such as live sports, darts and pool Maria said she is not serving menu food currently (This may change in the future) but still a great looking place for some quality family time. 😎

The Victoria pub is a hidden gem for families looking for a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The kids loved the children's menu and enjoyed playing in the designated family area. Overall, a wonderful experience for the whole family.

This pub holds a really crap atmosphere, was in over christmas and it was so dull i think it’s seen a lot better days. The barmaids have no personality and look miserable as sin, one girl looked like she would rather be anywhere but there and had a face of thunder. I asked for a drink and she just grunted at me and awkwardly poured me a pint. Will defo not be going again.

Booked a table for 2 at 7pm...received a confirmation. We booked a taxi , got dropped off at the door, went to the bar to be told they stopped serving food at 4pm! I explained I'd booked and recd a confirmation but was told no food. I asked why no one had let me know and was told all bookings go through to landlady's email. So 7pm, no food, no transport and a diabetic who needs to have something to eat...not good at all. We ended up at Newton Grill just down the road and decided to give them our hard earned cash. We will defo go for food again to Newton Grill as it was lovely but won't go back to Victoria for food as I'd rather give my money to a business that cares for its customers.

We booked a table for Saturday night. We got there ordered drinks at the bar. There were 3 girls behind bar none knew what there were doing. It took ages to get drinks. Baileys they had to get from somewhere, took 5 min! We sat down and the 2 drinks with lemonade tasted awfull. Went back to bar to get told that the lemonade is off. So we got new drinks after she went into cellar to put new lemonade on. No apology, nothing. The the food arrived after 50 min. The Beef Chilly looked like pulled Beef with Beans, the Mac/Cheese was cold but the best was the medium Steak. The Chips and Peas were swimming in blood as the Steak was rare. So I went and gave it back to the same girl with the off Lemonade. She said sorry this time and took it back into the kitchen. We waited 15 min as we thought she would come back and offer us something else to eat but nothing happened. So I went to Bar again and asked to speak to Kath the owner. When she came back out the kitchen the Bar girl said that Kath was too busy to come out with food orders and we could have a refund for the Steak ! There was nobody else sitting and ordering any food or even eating in there. Now we know why. The customer service is none existent, the owner couldnt be bothered less … We were gonna book there for Christmas but we will give it a miss. With this terrible attitude and food none of us is going there again. So avoid if you don’t want to waste your time and money

1 star is generous for this place. Booked a table at 4pm on the 13th March. When we arrived we got told we couldn't have a table in the restaurant (which we had booked) but could sit in the snug which was next to the toilets and smelt and then got told we couldn't even order food until 4:30........so what was the point in me booking a table for 4? Staff didn't seem bothered or offer an apology or free drink, their attitude was we are busy so get on with it. I appreciate thats it's a pub and not a fancy restaurant but if you are going ask people to book a table you should honour that booking and good manners cost nothing.

We were told that there would be half hour wait for food, which is ok. During that time we saw others being served great looking food that they obviously enjoyed. I saw the chef come out to speak to a customers about their allergies and how she could do special batter for their fish. This was great and made me look forward to our meals arriving. All looked great. Then ours arrived ! Not impressed ! Only 1 small sausage, burnt half tomato then burnt black bacon hidden underneath the egg!! Both of our breakfasts were the same. Wish we had chosen different meal as they looked much better.

The ambience and interior decor was very clean and welcoming, and the outside was very impressive especially the play area for children was a brilliant layout and looks very safe too; the lawn area was very green and lush and all the abundant table seating areas were well spaced out! I will certainly be calling to visit again in the near future! :)
