A pub that is properly a pub. Keeps its beer well. Often has the odd interesting ale. Garden View direct onto Lacey Green Windmill. Dog friendly. Serves food. Plenty of parking on the off-road strip alongside the road it faces. Not "gone totally restaurant" and the better for it. We have enough Gastro pubs nearby already.

Stopped on impulse for lunch mid-week for first visit after 40 odd years in the area. My how it has changed! Wonderful selection of ales and nice simple menu. Dishes came well presented and very well prepared. Delicious salt and pepper squid, gorgeous fish and chips, tasty snack and amazing "Whip Burger ". We all enjoyed our lunches complimented with excellent service. Definitely going back.

We met for a delayed family Christmas get together and ate dinner at The Whip Inn. The food was amazing...my husband is rather partial to a burger and it is his 'go to' order when we eat out...he said this was the best burger he had had in years! My sister and I had a veggie option, the mushroom and pea linguine which was piping hit and tasted delicious. Ray was very welcoming. We will definitely be back. Thank you x

Great beer garden and the burgers got rave reviews from our group as did the calamari. Update - good service and lovely food. Calamari is still fantastic. 2nd update - great service even though the guy behind the bar was brand new, he was professional, polite and friendly.

My partner and I decided to book in for lunch after a super long walk in the area. The garden is surprisingly big and very cosy sat beneath the windmill.

We dropped by randomly on a Tuesday evening and stopped in for a quick beer and a chance for the dog to drink some water. The staff were incredibly friendly and even made us some excellent sandwiches on spec (even though the kitchen was meant to be closed!) The beer was well kept and the garden, just next to Lacey Green windmill, was idyllic. Great place for a pleasant afternoon or evening (great in the sun and cosy indoors).

Ray’s Kitchen at The Whip! We have been waiting for The Whip to reopen with new management, Ray. During lockdown we had Ray’s takeaways for Sunday lunch and they were absolutely delicious….we have just had our first meal at The Whip and it is even better. Starter potted duck with port and smoked trout with horseradish cream. Fish &chips with curry sauce, the cod was so fresh! Venison casserole was rich and decadent. Finished off with sticky toffee pudding ( eaten before I remembered to take a picture- it was that good). Already booked for Easter Sunday. Well done to Ray and his new team, 👍 (to add, we had started eating our starter when I remembered to take a photo!!)

It looks like going downhill. I ordered an expensive whisky and it was served in a half pint glass! The barman said it a pint or a half pint glass. Shortly after sitting down at a table I saw glasses in the kitchen. A small group nearby left due to the smell of damp. I did not stay much longer.

Extremely disappointed.. booked for dinner this evening as a celebration for my daughter's graduation - booked 2 days in advance to ensure table. We turned up for 7pm at the time our table was booked and the guy behind the bar said 'I hope you're not expecting to eat' (?!) .. and informed us that they had run out of food. When I asked why they hadn't had the courtesy to call me so I had time to replan something, he replied 'I've been run off my feet'. He offered no compensation or alternative. Not even a complimentary drink. Really really cross and one disappointed family. Won't be back.

Unfortunately the dishwasher had sprung a leek...and flooded kitchen...when the food came out it was amazing ...complimentary drinks and pudding was much appreciated! A different choice of potatoes would go down well ie jacket potatoes or saute also no vegetarian options....would visit again!

Food was really good, the experience was ruined somewhat by the fact our waitress couldn't seem to care less. After it seemed like more than her jobs worth to seat us, it took so long to take our order I went up to the bar instead. Upon finishing, we were sat for a good 10 minutes before our plates were removed and we sat there for another 15 minutes waiting for the bill. Eventually we went back up to the bar to ask for the bill. There are only about 10 tables in the whole place of which only 2 others were filled so it's not like they were busy. A shame really because the food was really good and reasonably priced.

We were already apprehensive about our stay at Danesfield House Hotel & Spa due to the lack of communication prior to arrival. We had called a month in advance to book a couples massage and were told this would be fine and that we would receive a call to confirm payment. However, no such call ever took place. After weeks of trying, leaving voicemails without anybody returning our calls, somebody finally answered, and, to our dismay, informed us that a couples massage was no longer available. This was very upsetting, given we had previously been told our booking had been confirmed and that we would receive a call to make a payment over the phone. The only option, now, was to book two individual massages - which was not honouring our original agreement. However, after reluctantly agreeing to this, we were then called the next day to be asked if we minded moving the timing of that appointment! Apparently they prefer to arrange everything so it suits them. We, the paying guests, were inconsequential it seems. Now to our stay. Upon arrival, we were due to receive a bottle of champagne as part of our package. However, we did not receive it. Instead, we had to request it the following day where it did finally accompany our dinner. Had we not pushed on this matter, that bottle of champagne would have gone elsewhere (as I suspect was always the plan). The room that we were given was adequate at best. Mindful that we had not selected to stay in one of the more luxurious rooms, I was still rather alarmed at the exposed wall plugs in the bathroom where the radiator was noticeably coming away from the wall. There was also paint peeling off of the window frame in the bedroom, and all of the complimentary biscuits to accompany the teas and coffees were completely crushed. The other issue was that we were woken between 5 and 6am during both mornings of our stay by very loud footsteps and noise coming from the area above our room. Again, I am mindful that we hadn't chosen the most luxurious room, but the entire proposition is a 'luxury break' as you will see from their marketing literature. This was not supposed to be a Travelodge experience. At the end of what was supposed to be a relaxing retreat, we were not in the mindset to complain, but upon reflection, we think you should know that it was a disappointing stay. There were a couple of members of staff who were helpful and lightened the experience, but on the whole the customer service was not on a par with the experience that is portrayed by their website. We gave our feedback to Danesfield who did offer a complimentary night's stay, however, we weren't able to take this offer up for a while due to work and life commitments. When I did finally get around to organising our return stay, a member of staff rather abruptly told me I couldn't have it anymore! Nevermind then. I'd have been less inclined to write this review had they honoured that arrangement, considering there was no expiration date accompanying that offer.
