The Victoria Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We went for lunch we both enjoyed our meals. It was good to see that they do a carvery not many do these days. It looked good and was very popular. We will try that next time. The two young staff on duty were friendly and helpful.

I ordered 5 bean chilli and rice and 5 bean chilli dirty fries. One of the dishes had been swapped for meat! Neither of us has eaten meat for over 30 years. This is not the first time this has happened here. My vegetarian breakfast a while ago was swapped for meat. We used to go to the Victoria every couple of weeks. After giving it a break for a while, it seems they still can't get it right. To be confronted with meat was nauseating. All we got was an apology and the meal changed. Neither of us could enjoy the food after that.

Such a lovely place the food is excellent and the staff are so helpful

Recently became a regular at this pub, one afternoon while watching the ufc that was being streamed a group came in celebrating a birthday, and started dancing in front of the projector, when being told to move out of the way they started getting confrontational and deliberately dancing in front of the projector again. one of the people dancing is in a relationship with one of the workers at the pub, after she had reported that we were ‘rude’ to her partner who was not working at the time we were barred from this pub.

Lovely friendly staff and the carvery was spot on! Plenty to choose from. Unfortunately the parking is very tight in the carpark if you have a wider than average car but on road parking as available. Restaurant is spacious and was lovely and clean. Its a very popular place which speaks volumes.

We had carvery, it was fantastic, it's served all day every day. Nice friendly staff

Fantastic Sunday Dinner!! Well worth the trip. Thank you!

Very good . Good food and friendy staff

We've always been well looked after here. Foods great and the beer well kept. It's also just across the road from family too!

The carvery was good plus they do it every day

THE BEST cavery i have ever ever had! very friendly staff, food was so delicious and just had an overall amazing experience. cant wait to be back!

Had an event here this week. Absolutely awesome event, where the Victoria Inn team went out of their way to make sure everything was way above expectations. Lovely people. Venue was awesome. Food was lush. Also had accommodation there, and the bed was beaut. Thank you so much to all the guys and gals there ❤️

We have always found this pub to be very pleasant. We had a big disappointment today, meat and veg were hard and burned Yorkshire puddings. Also a member of staff with a big attitude problem when told about it.

Nice friendly pub with parking and good food

Clean and spacious room, excellent food and even better staff - very welcoming and helpful. Throughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend.

Fabulous food and great atmosphere

Good food drink and exelent service

I was returning home from Truro, when I decided to have some lunch in the Victoria, so I hadn't booked.The very busy staff were able to squeeze us in🙏. My partner and I had the carvery, and delicious it was!! Choice of 3 sizes, and all the meats were available, and cooked to perfection, full range of vegetables, also delicious, plus all the trimmings 😋 I would definitely recommend this place for Sunday roast, I spent £30 on 2 roasts and 2 large soft drinks, and will definitely be going back!!!!😋😋😋🙏

Visited on a weekday and it was a very pleasant experience! We sat in the beer garden with our dog which he loved and got ourselves a carvery. The guy serving the carvery was absolutely lovely and even did his best to find me some crackling at the end of the service! We came close to the end of the carvery service so there were only the ends left but that was our own fault for arriving later. I'd recommend coming closer to 12 to get the fresh out the oven bits! Thank you for a lovely meal regardless 😊🫶🏻

Food bit bland had the roast usually love the roast

Great food , and friendly staff... always enjoy going here...

Stayed for a few nights when visiting the area. A good central location in Cornwall with easy access to all attractions. Staff lovely, friendly and helpful, plus all the facilities you need either within the pub/restaurant with parking and breakfast included and a Co-op directly next door. Room was nice and big with 2 very comfortable double beds (not like the usual sofa-bed you get stuck with). Very quiet with no noise of the pub that we noticed. Breakfast was pretty good - option of fruit would be beneficial. Had the carvery in the evening which was all nice enough without being amazing. A few opportunities for improvement: Access is via a fire escape at the rear, which is not so attractive. The kitchen vents blast oily smelling air across your path when entering / leaving. The room although very nice overall had poor shower pressure and slightly inconsistent heat, and the window had to remain closed due to some smokers outside...probably kitchen staff having their deserved break, but it did not smell so nice coming in the room. Would definitely return due to to the comfort level being really good, plus the restaurant / shop convenience.

Excellent for overnight stays Beds really comfortable Excellent food Staff really friendly and helpful Chef is first class Food well cooked always hot

Highly recommend. we booked for Sunday carvery for 8 adults 2 children, my parents don't eat a lot, so was able to get small plates for them which was cheaper. On day Vic inn was extremely busy with another big party behind us plus everywhere else. Great selection of meat, not to fatty and very tender. good choice of veg and all was fresh and hot. The staff all worked very hard and nothing was to much trouble :) Thanks very much great job :)

We had the carvery delivered and I'm honestly just gobsmacked at how it tasted to be honest. The cauliflower was very hard the meat very dry and pickled cabbage just ruined it .it didn't state this was on there

A buzz of energy from the mixture of clientele. This is clearly very popular and for good reason. The beer was great and the menu varied. There was a carvery which was great and a good selection of other menu options, including specials.

We came here for dinner from a recommendation, The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, The food we all had different, 3 had the carvery and four of us had off the menu. The carverys were huge, 2 had the medium and one had the large, they would have lasted me 2 days. I had the seabass which was really nice on a bed of rocket, roast tomato and onion. The satay chicken burger was really good and the pulled pork burger also.

We stayed overnight at the Victoria. The gentleman that we checked in with was delightful and very friendly and escorted us to our room, which on first impressions was more than adequate for the price we were paying. However we started to notice a bad smell coming from the bathroom, and the following morning was so unbearable, we couldn't stomach entering to shower and brush our teeth. Looking at previous reviews this as been a long standing problem in room 3 and I feel it was poor judgement to allocate it. On reporting it to the female member of staff in charge she said she would report to the general manager which we hope was done because she seemed to be lacking in management skills. She was asked on several occasions for drinks to be topped up, surely she should be keeping an eye on the situation. After our breakfast, which like our evening meal we could not fault, I returned my room key to said member and thanked her for a lovely breakfast which was barely acknowledged as she couldn't be bothered to lift her head from the computer screen. Overall the food was amazing but some members of staff could do with some customer service training and room 3 should not be let until all issues have been resolved. Although I appreciated a reply about my above review, the reply was very unsatisfactory. I am not the first to bring this room to your attention, there are reviews going back over 3 years about this room, WHY LET IT?????

Very good service. A nice welcome and seated quickly having not booked in advance. Drinks and food served in timely manner. 100% recommend but do book first as it appears to be a popular place 👍

Lovely little Megan what a Star nothing is to much trouble for her being a bit disabled I needed help dishing up my carvery and she was extremely helpful if you ever need a helping hand ask for Megan she's brilliant

On arrival for lunch, pre booked.. Was asked loads of times who I was, couldn't find me on system called me many people's name before finding correct person. Was shown to our seats where we was informed straight away .. we don't do table service here you need order at the bar, ok so asked for menus, brought Over and slammed on the table. Went to bar to order food the bar staff was more worried talking to the men than serving customer for food. Asked for assistance and told goto carvery they do it there. Ordered food ,. drinks brought to table by two men who were polite as anything and wished us a happy afternoon. Now was told get our food, which was adequately warm, I had asked three times for my latte that was ordered with the other drinks beforebeing brought over. Asked if everything OK. Asked girl who slammed the menus down to clean our table as there was five of us and that the children can have their pudding, the waitress took two plates away did not come back for the rest. We waited for her to return but 10 minutes later with no arrival from her I went and found her cleaning another table. Asked her again to clean table, someone else came in and done it, why?? If your cleaning one table clean it properly then go onto another table. The meals were OK, the service from certain female young staff was shoddy as anything, I will not be going back in a hurry, but as and when I do return I do hope that the service will be better than what we had today. I do think that staff should wear name tags so at least you can give praise or negative comments to the correct person when putting in a complaint and they know who your talking about. So all in all... Not. In no hurry go back even though just up the road from us. Reading other reviews I get where they are coming from. Staff need to look after customers, clean tables when asked, bring drinks etc when asked not leave for another member of staff to do your job that you get paid for. I know this much though whenMr& Mrs Trick had the place it was run a lot better than today!!!

Had a Sunday carvery had not booked but managed to get a table staff were very friendly and the food was excellent definitely come back

Thomas the bartender is a total legend if ever you need anything ask for Thomas best bartender ever surprised if he didn't get a pay rise nothing is to much trouble for Thomas

Ventured to this location for two evening as it was convenient to where we were staying, but we were excited to find that there was a carvery on offer as well as the main menu. Carvery vegetables were a little discoloured but still edible all the same. The desserts were tasty and the young staff were mostly attentive.

Had a meal yesterday afternoon it was expensive for what we got. The manager was a bit of a bully. I don't think I will ever visit again, it was nice when St Austell Brewery owned it.

Very nice pub with a few bars and live music. The usual choice of drinks ( ie. Plenty )

Came here last night for carvery. We all had a standard carvery, meat was lovely and plenty of veg, which wasn’t the warmest, but the plates are so small you have to pile all your veg on top of each other. The potatoes were awful, aunt bessies potatoes that were rock heard, it really let the meal down. I did tell the waitress and her response was she’d pass it on to the chef. So a carvery with no roast potatoes. We’ve been here many times before and never had a poor carvery like this..

Overnight stay, Good value for a family of 4 the staff were friendly. The disappointing thing was the food the alepie did not taste great and only had peas and small amount of mashed potatoes could of done with another veg and more mashed potatoes lot of money. I looked forward to a cooked breakfast was not much to it and the toast was of a poor quality and slightly burnt. The other thing was we were awaken around 6am by a worker moving stuff around outside. I had mentioned this at checkout. I wouldn't stay here again good price for the room but the food was disappointing as well as being waken up at 6am by worker/worker's.

Really lovely staff great food and great rooms

Great carvery and very friendly staff . Highly recommended

Unfortunately, the expectations were not so surprising in the room and the breakfast did not seem so fresh either. It looked completely different from the pictures. The staff was very kind and helpful in everything and I can say that the staff deserves 5 stars

After reading the reviews we thought we’d try the pub . Wish we never ! We ordered a drink which took at least 15 mins to arrive , We had French onion soup that was on the specials they obviously don’t know what that actually is it was just a bowl of gravy with loads of onion no cheese no croutons no nothing , we then had to wait for spoons to eat it with for over 5 minutes then we went on to have the carvery hoping that would be better everything apart from the turkey tasted horrible now granted this was at tea time and was probably sat there for a long time but if you are serving carvery all day at least have some standards! Whilst we were in there we witnessed two complaints ……. Wish I had taken photos . Hindsight we should have took notice of the red flags at the beginning ! I just can’t understand how you can have good reviews and experience what we and the other two people did within such a short space of time . If I could give no stars I would have

2 roasts delivered with extra gravy. Great roast for the price.

Great carvery, tasty food, good for the price, staff and atmosphere friendly.

Always good meals, we've been a few times and always enjoyed it. Will definitely be back.

We took our grandchildren but my granddaughter couldn't eat as has a peanut allergy and wasn't guaranteed no risk. Not sure why a peanut cheesecake is on the menu shame as nice place to eat normally.

A hidden gem of a pub, food is always super.

I went there for my Unc funeral and this place is awesome and beautiful. Peter Lazenby was my Unc. And my Aunty Mary there to arrangement. It was lovely . Iam from Woolavington bridgwater somerset. 👍

Had the tomato soup which I actually managed to split in two as it was more like a passata than soup. It was congealed around the edge and served with a thin slice of white bread for £6.50 I personally would of preferred if they had opened a tin of Heinz. My husband ate his lasagna and I ate his garlic bread. Left hungry and very disappointed.

Good choices on menu and a roast available from the counter if desired

Beautiful carvey, highly recommend

Rooms nice and relatively quiet, accessible via outside stairs, service nice, food good.

Lovely friendly place, they do a fabulous carvery. Definately worth taking a trip here.

Excellent dishes particularly the carvery. And friendly helpful staff. We wish we had a pub/restaurant to compare near us .... in Hemel Hempstead, Herts.

Oh my goodness what has gone wrong at the Victoria, couldn't believe the difference since visiting back in February. Really disappointed with our food last night it was just terrible. I'm afraid we won't be coming back as the quality was always amazing but now absolutely awful

What a lovely place. Fantastic breakfast with friendly staff. You can see how hard you need to work to make a place like this to work. Well done and keep up the great job. Neil and Louise.

I had a meal and party for my birthday, Everything was so well organised, food was lovely, the pub was decorated, everyone had a fantastic evening. Ben and the team did everything to make sure everything was perfect.

I had a birthday meal and party afterwards, Ben and the team were so well organised, the food was lovely and everyone enjoyed themselves.

Not somewhere I would recommend for food, it was the worst meal we'd had whilst we were in Cornwall, very bland and over cooked. I've had better meals at a wetherspoons!

I absolutely love going to this place…The food is always very nice and reasonably priced, but the best part for me is the friendly welcome and service you receive. Whenever you go, at whatever time of the day, the waiters and waitresses are always so friendly and helpful and it helps to create such a lovely atmosphere. It’s probably my favourite place to eat in Truro. If you’re after a good choice of decent food that’s reasonably priced and combined with a fantastic atmosphere, then the Victoria Inn is highly recommended. 5* but they deserve more in my book.

Had the large carvery and it was soooo good, prices seemed reasonable and the atmosphere was really good. Staff were all very well friendly and the service was quick

Not liking the change of menu, limited vegetarian/ vegan options. Management were abit rude. Used to love eating there won't be rushing back.

I was staying in a family room on the first floor, with a bad entrance going outside to edge of the building , going through outside metal stairs with a view of a fan and rubbish bags . The lights on the first floor werent working . The area was okay next to a CO-OP. The room was generally pretty nice with 2 big beds and a nice loo with a power shower. The breakfast was really nice and tasty and fresh. I recoomond for 1 night to 1 week stays.

This Inn is more of a modern restaurant with a few rooms above it. Busy with many activities on a regular basis. Can be noisy. Friendly staff, food is fine and an English breakfast is included.

I would of given 5 stars but the drain smell in the bathroom was awful.

Very relaxed environment. Food was delicious, and the portions were a good size. Staff were friendly and helpful, and there was good variety on the menu. There was plenty of space, it didn't feel at all crowded or loud. The food came out very quickly, within about 5-10 minutes.

Visited today for a baby shower.. 3 people didn’t turn up which caused some staff to be very bitter towards the rest of the party. Room was booked 1-5pm but they cut it short and said we had to leave at 3.30 we all sat outside and the room remained empty so can’t see why we was all told to leave by 3.30! Also they decided to charge an extra £50 because 3 people didn’t turn up AND charged 1 person for 2 main meals because of their own mistake! 1 person was serviced a veggie lasagna but told the waitress she ordered beef lasagna they said they will raise it but when everyone went to pay she was charged for both meals and told she should of raised it when serviced her meal which she did. Because they decided to reduce the party’s time down we didn’t have enough time to play baby shower games that were set up ready to play. We won’t be visiting again

Asked for quiet area...stuck next to a disused snooker table. Food was good Atmosphere so so

On arrival at this pub/bed and breakfast we were booked into room 3. On entering the room there was an awful drain smell, we closed the bathroom door and opened the window which did clear the smell from the main room. I phoned down to speak with the manager who said he would come and take a look at the room. On entering the room he said "oh yes I can smell it too" he went and checked the other rooms which were all fine. He then returned and put some cleaner around the toilet, this did not cure it. We went down for breakfast the next morning and told the manager we still had the bad smell, he said sorry and would look at it again today. We had breakfast and went on our way to visit our friends. When we returned we must admit the room did not smell quite as bad as before but was still smelling rather awful. We did not see the manager again. The next day it was again the same. On checking out we were still charged the full amount on mentioning the smell the young girl said oh really sorry about that. Food: On the first morning we got up and made our way down the stairs to the restaurant area for our breakfast, the tables were all laid out ready for us, you have a choice and a selection of cereals too. We both chose the full English breakfast, this came out and was very well presented and the sausage was lovely (makes a change as sausages are a bit of a hit n miss). On the second morning my husband chose the bacon bap but I again had the full English, but this day it was not well presented and the bacon and sausage were over cooked it was nothing like the day befores. Not sure if it was a different chef but was definately not like the one the day before. The Sunday morning we were just about to wake up and the fire alarm went off. We were already told that nobody is on site during the night so we would have to call for help if neeeded. We all left our rooms and went down the staircase, The door to the kitchen was open but when I shouted out to see if anyone was there, there was no reply, I walked over to a shed which had lights on (in the carpark area) but nobody was there. When I got back to the other people the chef came out and said it's ok there is no fire , it's from one of the rooms upstairs, so I said if you know it's one of the rooms upstairs how do you know there is not a fire (as he had not been up there), he said well I can check if you want, so I said I would prefer it if you did. He went into next doors room and said all good, then came into our room and said its fine, went next door and said oh its your room you set the alarm off and left us to it.. This did not please or reassure any of us that was staying there. We were just thankful that it was our last stay. We went down for breakfast and saw 2 big colanders full with potatoes that had been peeled left out in the open by a drain, for all animals etc to walk pass this is so unhygienic in my view, so glad we were not having dinner there and is supposed to have a hygiene of 5, mmmmm Such a shame as we visit once a year to Cornwall but will not be recomending this venue ever again to anyone.

Wonderful meal, staff friendly, portions good value (not stingy with meat, £12 or so) and lots of veg options on fresh and well cooked carvery. Roasties fabulously crispy, gravy perfect. Non carvery meals going past to other tables looked good. If you ask for carvery chef calls you up and carves for you, then help yourself to veg- they don't do "tickets". Scrupulously clean airy restaurant with well spaced seating and well maintained clean facilities (I'm picky about "clean", does it show??). There's outside seating and an indoor/outdoor pergola you can eat in for fresh air while dry but the restaurant has a skylight with windows opened for ventilation (if this is a concern, hope this is useful to know). They did good looking puddings but were too full of carvery... Glad we found this place while lost in Truro, will definitely be coming back for another carvery, thanks team!!

Wasn’t hugely impressed, nothing particularly wrong , although beef carvery could have been cooked less and the Yorkshire better. To be honest it is much nicer down the road at the County Arms

Had a carvery here for Mother’s Day. The food was delicious, veg was amazing. Will definitely be back

Great carvery and lovely atmosphere

Great place for a carvery and a few pints, Great staff and attentive, Nice beer garden.

The carvery is fantastic, the prices great and its every day of the week! You get given the meat and then everything else is literally help yourself, one time obviously but the foods is delicious and so much choice, plenty, great value and very tasty!! So happy with it. Staff really helpful and friendly, very clean and tidy lovely atmosphere, overall really nice. I would easily rate this a 9/10, if not a 10, you'll have to try it for yourselves! It was delicious x and wooow the Yorkshire puds are huuuugggeeee!!!

Went at lunch time on a Monday, relatively quiet. There was a good carvery but we opted for smaller meals from a good range on the regular menu.

Had the carvery could have been better beef was tough

Good food and good company. The staff are friendly and their Carvery is top notch.

We have been here many times over the years and have always been very happy and we are kean local supporters. Tonight was our first visit in a while and we have been amazed by tonight's carvery. They have always been great value but Tonight we met chef Jordon for the first time and he has taken things to a new level. It was an absolutely superb choice of vegetables, more than we had seen before. All cooked beautifully and with imagination. Yorkshire pudding to die for. Big light snd fluffy. Proper crispy roast potatoes and a selection of wonderful meats. Jordan is clearly a real asset to the team. The waiting staff couldn't have been more friendly or helpful either. Thankyou team vic for a top evening

Had jacket potato with pulled pork. It was awful. Very little pork in some kind of awful sauce and pink onions. A small portion. Potato was not fluffy as you would expect a jacket potato to be. Certainly not value for money

Very good food and reasonably priced.

Very good service. Lack of forks for the cake. Overall for a Wedding reception, I think it was worth the money!

Good place for a carvery nice pleasant staff.

We arrived to be pushed into a back cold room because we had small dog Seated right by busy bar. I have terminal cancer and get cold With my 90 year old Mum husband and disabled sister. So dissapointed. Food all over cooked Worse I'm vegetarian so couldn't eat my food. Never come again. Such a shame, staff serving food very kind

The service was excellent, the carvery was average...the stuffing was so hard it was impossible to eat it. The cauliflower cheese was luke warm...the roast potatoes were excellent so was the swede unfortunately not much of it also the sprouts were a bit thin on the ground....we arrived a little late , about 2pm,so I will go again, but a bit earlier, hopefully the standard of the food will be better. I hope so as the place was recommended and we traveled down from Dartmoor.

Brilliant staff, excellent accommodation, comfortable beds, enjoyful breakfast overall best stay in Cornwall, congratulations.

Food very good, service very poor.

Ordered take away meals and deserts for delivery, The lasagnes were dry and tough. The gravy was watery, potatoes and vegetables hard and Yorkshires cooked from frozen not worth the £14 each for a large roast. My daughter had the pulled pork burger and that was tough and dry. Now onto deserts, brownies expensive, both sticky toffee pudding and the crumble were cold including the custard! I'm sorry but for £94.50 I feel extremely robbed.

Excellent carvery with my family

Great carvery with excellent choice of vegetables and four different meats

I stayed here for just one night after work. I was starving so promptly got checked in had a lovely warm shower and headed down to a very busy restaurant. Went to the bar expecting to have to wait, immediately got a drink and given a table and menus. Even though each staff member was doing three things at a time, incredible. I ordered off the special menu because when im hungry i feel its the time to try things i might not like. Went for mozzarella cheese bites and brie, bacon, cranberry and beef burger. The cheese bites sent me into another plain of existence. The tomato sauce they served them with and the salad, incredible. Next onto the brie burger. Unfortunately i had completely forgotten that i absolutely hate brie. Anyway smashed 3/4 of the burger before i let that sink in because the cranberry sauce was doing something wild with the bacon. After rather embarrassingly letting the waitress take my plate with 1/4 of a burger on. She asked me if i wanted desert. Guess what i said… YES but i asked her to choose it for me, she was very nervous but while wizzing around other customers she flew past and asked, “served with clotted cream or ice cream? ICE CREAM i said in pure excitement. I kid you not, the most delicious passionfruit cheesecake was presented in front of me. The restaurant packed with customers saturated into nothing around me and for the next 60 seconds i was in a fruity cheesy ice cream wonderland. Sadly the waitress was too busy for me to thank her so i paid the bill and retired back to my room. If you get a chance. Visit this place it will make your day.

Booked for xmas lunch for the family on boxing day as I was working Xmas day. Really looking forward to not cooking and eating a lovely meal out. This was however not the case sadly my mother and I are vegetarian so ordered the winter soup of butter bean and winter squash. It was so curried it was burning my stomach and made my mother feel sick. So it was left . There was no mention of curry on the menu. When our main course arrived it was supposed to be Moroccan nut roast it was again full of curry and not a nut in site. It was rice, sultanas peppers and curry no nuts . We also felt that the service wasn't the best having to ask to get plates cleared . Also eating our desert looking at congeling gravy boars that were not removed. When taking my concerns to a manager I was basically told it was my fault as I haven't stated dietary requirements. If it had stated curry I would not have ordered it but it was very misrepresented on the menu. The manger took the two vegetarian main courses off the bill. Which was rather negated by the managers attitude. IWould not recommend xmas lunch unless you eat meat there. After paying 190 pounds I felt disappointed at the whole affair it spoilt the day for Me . I will not be returning or recommending I was planning to go there for the new year but won't now be doing so.

The pub was really busy, but our booked table was ready and we were promptly seated. The table was nicely decorated for Christmas, and the staff were attentive and friendly. Most of us had the carvery, I'm vegetarian so had nut roast with veg, the veg were really good, a nice selection, only criticism was the cauliflower cheese didn't seem to have any cheese in it! The chef also kindly gave me a box of leftover meat scraps for my dog - which she was very pleased about! Very pleasant lunch.

Haven't been for a while and went for Christmas dinner. Turkey meat nice beef and pork awful. But what really let it down was the over cooked tastless veg. Went in 1st sitting all food looked and tasted reheated. No seasoning just very over cooked. Very disappointed as a special gathering. Also had starter and this was over cooked little side of wilted salad and a plop of garlic mayonnaise. The place has been done up since I last went and looks nice but food has gone down hill plus price gone up but you expect that these days.

The Victoria Inn, is brilliant, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the food was excellent, and the Inn is very good value for money. But, and there is always a but, the room was ok, but the smell in the bathroom was so overpowering, it made my wife sick. We had to go and buy air fresheners to put in the bathroom to stop the smell, which we assumed came up from the kitchen below our room. So as much as we loved your pub, we won't be coming back

Went with a group. Most of the group had carvery and many complained the veg was cold. Two of us had Hake which had obviously been sitting on a hot plate for some time as the sauce was congealed on the plate and vegetables which made them unedible. The Hake was fine as it sat on top of everything. After reading all the good reviews I found it very disappointing. Saturday 16th lunch. I didnt complain because the staff were rushed off their feet as it was.

last time we were here I wrote a great review and we had a great time so we decided to return for dinner very disappointing i ordered whitebait starter and scampy main very annoyed that they had no tarter sauce aispite there being a co op next door i did suggest they go next door and get some but no a member of our party went and got some instead annoying zip had gone from the waitresses carvery was excellent I was told in all disapointing for what i thought would be my goto place to eat

8 of us met for the set Christmas lunch. Our waiter was really efficient and friendly. I had the Morrocan lamb starter which was delicious. I then had the carvery and chose beef and pork. Very friendly chef at the servery too. All great up until then, but the roast beef was tough and inedible. My friend's dog will be happy, but I was disappointed. One of my friends also chose beef, even happier dog..... I bumped into several people I knew, all of whom could not eat the beef. In the queue to pay another lady asked if I had the beef as hers was inedible as so tough. I told the waittess when paying and had an apology, but that was it. I would go back for the lamb, but will swerve the carvery in future!

We have just returned from a meal at The Victoria Inn, Threemilestone. The carvery was OK although rather dried up. My husband had the Bass, the actual fish was quite good but the accompanying vegetables were so burnt we couldn't even work out what they were.

Never had to book before at Christmas, went there today for carvery to celebrate my dad's birthday but got turned away by a curteous member of staff who told us that only people who booked were allowed in today and that it's "christmas" Very disappointed. Allso this year when we have gone the food hasn't been quite up to the standard of the year before, potatoes were bland and burnt, I don't know if management etc has changed but things not quite the same anymore.
