Amazing food all served by very experienced and helpful staff. The ale is made in-house and is fresh and cheaper than other pubs by cutting out any middle man. Never had a bad pint! Worth a visit. Def going back.

Got off to a rocky start over the order. That was rectified quickly. Food was excellent, it wasn't very busy for a Saturday evening. Its always been packed on previous visits. Only criticism is that older people don't like being referred to as Guys! Just ask if everything is ok. No more ' hey guys, alright guys etc etc.. No more over familiarity. There's a fine line, too much is cringe worthy. Some people may like it but we just like good service delivered professionally.

Brilliant...service, food and of course a couple of Problem Childs best made it perfect. 2nd visit after the Rugby & Beer outdoors which was so good. Staff are eager and nothing was a problem. Menu changes regularly so can't recommend one particular meal. Will be back very soon.

Really good cocktails and food. The staff who waited on the tables were very cheerful and helpful. The food was good, I would definitely recommend going. They do need to change the way they handle tips though, if we tip we like to give it directly to the person and they keep it all for themselves and not share it with the other staff, they didn't serve us or make our experience better, so why would we tip them?

Dropped by for breakfast in the mood for a Friday treat. I was not disappointed. Truly warm welcome from Jane the manager & great service from her throughout. Breakfast menu held lots of tempting choices from Eggs Benedict to pancakes to traditional (which I went for). Traditional breakfast was so tasty, well sourced ingredients and freshly cooked. Highly recommend, canβt wait to return!

Lovely pub that has a great laid back atmosphere. Large car park and large relaxed outdoor dog friendly seating areas. Inside the pub is tastefully decorated and comfortable. The Problem Child beer (Dirty Bier) that is brewed on the premises is superb. Large selection of drinks. Nice menu and good food. The bar can be a little understaffed at busy times but thatβs a minor point. Great place to visit for a quick bite or a few drinks in the sun.

Visited at the weekend for Sunday lunch. We had booked a table and were greeted warmly and shown to a lovely table in the conservatory area. Fish platter and honey halloumi rolls were delicious as our chosen starters. I shared a Sunday lunch platter with my son which was plentiful and delicious. My husband had the beef Sunday lunch, cooked perfectly as to his request. Servers were attentive throughout but never intrusive. A lovely experience and one of the best Sunday lunches Iβve eaten at a restaurant in a long time.Well worth a visit.

Had a lovely meal in the pub area last Saturday. The greeting was friendly and professional and we were early so planned to have a drink first but we decided to eat in the bar area instead which we were made aware was order yourself at the bar which we were fine to do. The menu had a good and varied selection of meals and the prices were fair. Once we had tried the food we can highly recommend everything was delicious and arrived quickly and hot which made the prices seem even better for the quality of the food. Hubby had the croquettes and burger I had the squid and then the Chicken supreme! The squid had a dressing on the salad which had a little bit of spice but I like hot spicy food so was fine for me and the batter was light but π tasty. The chicken supreme was DELICIOUS!!!!! The sauce was so tasty the chicken was moist and the black pudding side was fantastic π an all round very tasty comforting dish We also asked some questions about the menu and an answer came back from the kitchen quickly πππ Already planning our next visit There's also a very pleasant outside area with lots of lovely natural flower beds and planting. It was heavy rain on our visit so we were happy to stay inside and get cosy. Would recommend for a very very tasty friendly cosy meal and a fair price π₯°

We visited the Wayfarer on a very sunny π Saturday afternoon. It was my first time visiting this eatery. It's set in a lovely relaxing location with a large car park and plenty of outside seating areas Upon arrival, the staff were very friendly and directed us to a nice outside table. You have to order at the bar. We ordered fish and chips π . Regarding the food. Overall, it was good at the price point. The fish π was a decent size and moist . The mushy peas π« were tasty better than average. The chips π were ok,although some of them were undercooked ,as still firm inside. Despite that, we still enjoyed our luncheon in the outside garden with hot sunshine π beaming down. Overall, I'd definitely recommend visiting the Wayfarer as it's a lovely country pub and eatery .

Don't even bother ordering the platter at this place. Go to miller&Carter instead wish we had which we usually do for birthdays etc. They are having people off!! Β£48 for a platter for 2 people,that was brought out with 3 thin minimal skimpy slices of beef no bigger that a biscuit,one small chicken leg&a small piece of pork which most of it was fat. Really felt well&truly ripped off,mentioned to waitress serving it before reluctantly trying to share it onto our plates,there was enough vegetables etc but a sunday platter ain't about making do with most of your dinner being vegetables,it was a absolute disgrace,didnt even stay for deserts so they lost out,if it wasn't for my lovely other half booking it for my birthday I would of walked out,not kidding my little dog would of looked at me for more if I served that in her dish!! PS i dont normally complain but made a exception for this experience so BEWARE!! ,2 days after posting the above I have had a reply to say they offered more meat,they should put more on in the 1st place,they offered a piece of chicken,but that didn't make up for the other short comings served. I would of been ashamed taking it out to a customer. Anyway the business wayfarers have also quoted they having this honest review DELETED, just shows you the kind of people they are..

Lovely food, very quiet, was presented (very politely) with the bill and card machine to pay before we'd been asked, so didn't feel welcome to stay for extra drinks after our meal even though they didn't need the table and it wasn't near closing time. Everything else was lovely.

Albeit it was the 27th of Dec and it may well have been a reduced team after the busy festive season, thereβs no excuse for the poor quality food and service we experienced. Greasy, deep fried and tasteless would be a few words to describe our meals. The waiting team were young, inexperienced and clearly under trained but I would have expected more from this place. Building tents in fields has perhaps distracted them from their core business but I certainly wonβt be eating there again. We collectively spent over Β£400 and Iβve had far far better for much much less locally .

Visiting friends we decided a birthday treat would be a nice breakfast and we weren't disappointed. We hadn't booked but thought 10am on Saturday would be OK. We had a table in the orangery and looked at the fantastic breakfast menu - lots of different delicious options and the ability to swap and change things. The food was delicious, prices are more expensive than a greasy spoon BUT it was worth the money π After we sat down the place filled up so maybe book in advance Would definitely recommend π

Went for an evening meal (Saturday 6:45) and was genuinely impressed. A good menu, with something for all tastes. Food was cooked to a high standard with service to match. Tables are a decent size and not crowded together. Prices are more than reasonable for the quality and service standard. Starter, main, and a drink for two and a coffee for one to follow, fir under Β£70 isn't bad at all. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

I was recommended to come here and try out the food by a friend, and I'm so glad that they did. The food is reasonably priced and so delicious that I even have loads left over for another meal. This is my new favourite carry-out for sure.
