The White Gate in Kirklees

Me and my husband came here today for our anniversary the food was excellent fresh,and tasty.we were hosted by two young ladies who couldn't do enough for us.looked after us great atmosphere thank you so much we will be back soon.

We've called here for drinks, light snacks and lunch a few times now while we've been visiting family in the area. It's been lovely, the staff are nice and locals have been chatty and welcoming. We've had lunch which was really nice and reasonably priced. We have also called for drinks and had light food, which was on the starters menu. Absolutely can't fault it and quickly becoming a regular stop off on our way home to Bury. Definitely recommend.

My dad and I stopped here after a long journey to look at cars. The staff were friendly and the service was excellent. Both our meals were lovely. Would go again if we were ever in the area. Reasonable price and large portions.

Only about 20 people in at lunchtime but took 45 minutes to bring our meal. Staff never asked if the meal was ok as they seemed embarrassed about the answer they might get. Food average. Really wanted this place to succeed as we need new places to go to in the area.

This pub has new owners they are lovely and friendly They have made it lovely inside it’s like a different vibe has been achieved in a few weeks Comfortable and smells great ( it didn’t before) The food is scrumptious well presented I would recommend this to anyone and will definitely be back

I was craving a traditionally cooked pub meal! And that’s what I got! Outstanding food, so much food! A bargin! Was delicious. Staff welcoming and kind. I Will be going again! Sorry for the picture I had starting eating before hand. Couldn’t wait. Thank you.

Lovely home cooked food. Friendly staff and owners. We both had the Steak and Ale pie - and there was so much we were too full to try the sweets. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommend.

Nice hot plentiful food. Service needs a little retraining but nothing that cannot be resolved. Would definitely visit again.

Fantastic food and brilliant service from staff, very friendly. We generally eat at the same places but very glad we tried Whitegate pub, we can add it to the places we trust to go eat!

The service in the pub was ridiculous. We were the only people in the pub so they weren't busy however we were only give 2 napkins for a family of 4 to start with. Then we had a problem with one of the meals and I'm guessing it was the manager who came out and said that this was how it was served, when asked if we could have a full steak they said no as they only serve it in slices, now I have never been anywhere that serves a steak in slices but when asked if we could have a full steak to be refused this is really baffling! Honestly what difference does it make to serve a full steak rather than have it cut up?. Then for 3 meals it cost nearly £70 it's unbelievable no wonder there was noone in there on a Saturday night.

We have been a few times since the pub changed hands. Food is excellent, freshly cooked and comes with good quality vegetables...as it is fresh, expect a little wait. Pudding choice is great too. Plus at the moment mulled wine is on offer...I didn't try it but may call back in just for a drink.

Excellent food Excellent service a very enjoyable evening with family. I tried the very unusual starter, haggis and onion bhaji, absolutely delicious. Followed by the homemade steak pie, again delicious. Could not fault the service or the food. Would definitely call again next time we are in the area.

First I will start off by saying the staff member we were speaking with was great. So polite friendly and great with recommendations. The food was amazing as I’m originally from Australia it was great to tuck into a meat pie!! And it was delicious! We sat outside and watched the sunset over the hills while we ate and it was just beautiful. Would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area

Had dinner here for the second time since the new people took over and i have to say you will not get a better meal or service anywhere, if you haven't tried it then put it In your Diary,you won't be disappointed.

Great menu, lovely ambience and brilliant service. The food was well prepared, interesting ant tasted delicious. The two members of staff front of house were very capable and very friendly and polite.

Hearing there was new management, we visited for Sunday dinner which was delicious. 2 of us had starters and both the ham hock terrine and the croquettes were lovely. On Sunday there's a limited menu of classics as well (nice when you don't want a dinner) but we all went for a roast. Beef, pork and chicken breast were all spot on (beef well done but still very nice) and the Yorkshire puddings, roasties and veg were faultless. In fact, the veg spring cabbage, leeks and petit pois) was so nice I even left a roastie so I could eat it all! Friendly staff and a reasonable price, I'll definitely be going back!

A very good extensive choice of different food dishes to choose from the menu. Lovely delicious homemade food, and very welcoming indeed. Great and helpful staff. Also a great selection of beers and desserts. A nice handy location. I would strongly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for somewhere to wine and dine. Also a very reasonably and well priced menu.

We had the beef Sunday lunch and couldn’t fault it, good portion sizes, lots of veg with homemade roast potatoes and gravy. The chocolate mousse was also delicious. Good value for money, polite and friendly staff. Also very dog friendly.

Went here today with my husband for lunch.Nice welcome when we went into the pub.Very friendly staff.Food we cannot fault.Nice choice on the menu.My husband had steak and I had chicken tika.Would definitely recommend.

Visited last sunday, had garlic mushrooms to start with which was lovely, ordered sausage and mash for our main, when the food came out we was appauled, 3 richmond sausage, bear in mind theres a farm shop just up the road, packet mash which we expected being proper mash especially when its your sunday dinner, peas looked old, watery gravy, definately wouldnt go again, very disappointed

My wife and I, along with my mum went for lunch on Friday 30th December and we were delighted by the fantastic service and absolutely beautiful food. The host was just fantastic and took a reasonably busy place in her stride. On leaving we were informed that she and her family will be leaving the premises and moving on, they will be one very difficult act to follow. I hope that their future prospects are successful and that there replacement can keep it going.

Not what it used to be The young man serving was polite The owner was rude and won’t be returning .. the place was quiet food was ok, won’t be going back unfortunately

Just got home from The Girls Christmas do and what a lovely evening. Had the excellent value Christmas Dinner served with a smile, generous portions, lovely atmosphere. Delicious veggie option and with a drink included, could not recommend highly enough!

Visited The Whitegate for the first time with the new owners, couldn’t have been happier!! The food was gorgeous and piping hot! Even my picky little one ate her meal! And the customer service given from the landlady was exquisite! She could not have done more for us if she tried, such a lovely and friendly lady! Can’t wait to return!

The food at the Whitegate used to be good quality, but not any longer, particularly the sausages which have gone from delicious butchers sausage to cheap tasting and greasy, making me wonder if they had been deep fried. I do hope the owners take notice...

Visited and the owner was unfriendly a little abnoxious and unprofessional. Didn't stay! Won't return.

We have previously had lovely meals from the senior menu pre lockdown. This was the 1st and last visit with the current owners. Limited choice from the senior menu, did not include a roast dinner, as previously. Sausage, mash and garden peas would have been...

Love this place for Sunday lunch, great price great food, great service food is spot on, the manager is so helpful, i can even take my cake home, we will be back.

I cannot say anything but excellent experience on every visit to this pub. It’s a gem for food and drinks at a very affordable price. The food is much better than average pub grub and always cooked well. The landlord and lady are very friendly and always make us feel welcome.I would recommend this pub for either drinks or food and the regular stream of familiar faces speaks volumes. Well done to Mark & Hayley for bringing this pub to life.

Called in on the off chance to get lunch and we weren't disappointed Bar couple were very friendly and got us a table quickly.Gammon and burger was ordered and it was very nice.Excellent service and lovely food.Been before and we will return again

First visit to this pub after many walks passed,sat outside to avoid covid and was engulfed in smoke by every angle,sadly won’t be going back

Called in here for tea with our 7 year old. Staff really friendly, made us feel very welcome. Food really nice, big portions. Shame we were too full to try desert. Will definitely go back as we only live up the road. A far more friendly atmosphere and warmer welcome than another pub up the road that shares it's name with with something in the sky!

Went there for lunch yesterday staff very friendly and helpful all wearing PPE. Food was excellent value and quality had the chicken combo starter came with a great salad and then giant Yorkshire pudding with roast beef plenty of veg well worth a visit

We didn't know what to expect with our first visit to a pub since lockdown and were delighted with the welcome we received at the White Gate. The owners and staff were brilliant with all the measures in place and adhered to. On top of the welcome the food was home cooked and well worth the very reasonable price. We will certainly be returning to the White gate and cannot recommend highly enough. Paul and family.

Finally after three months I was able to come back and have the chicken enchilada!!! The White Gate has become our local and are always greeted with a warm welcome. The food is great value and even though I say I’m going to make a different decision I always have the chicken enchiladas. Portion sizes are great and you are always full after each meal. Mark and Hayley have done a brilliant job with the White Gate!! Keep up the good work guys!! We will be back week in week out

Great home cooked food served here, never disappointed, always plenty on the plate, without outfacing you. We went for the first time on the 1st day they were allowed to open after 4 months of lockdown. Pleased to see and say that all measures insisted on being applied. All the family felt comfortable and welcomed as usual. Great to be able to go again. We all had different meals from the menu. I had surf and turf, steak was beautiful. Will be going back again, in fact we did following week and enjoyed it once again. Great place to eat and drink. The hosts Mark and Haley do a great job and always make you feel very welcome. Would wholeheartedly recommend a visit or two. Beer drinkers, the Old Mill Best Bitter is really good.

Wanted to kill time and fancied tea out. Nice pub, quiet, It was only 5.30pm. Ordered drinks and food. Meal arrived nicely presented. Lovly fish and chips good portion sizes. Nice and warm in pub. Friendly staff. Would go back.

Had our works Christmas lunch here. Really good fresh food, carefully prepared and served nice and hot ... enjoyed by everyone. Lovely staff and owners who really put themselves out to ensure that we were happy. Would recommend anytime and definitely will be back. Well done and thank you.

Went for Sunday Lunch, fabulous service, lovely friendly staff, super hot food and they couldn't do enough to ensure we were happy with what we had ordered. Went for the 3 course special menu which is a bargain. Will be going again.

Looks like a nice place from outside so thought we would call in, what a mistake that was!!Ordered burgers and prawns, The burgers were as dry as pope jhon Paul's jocks and the tiger prawns flavourless only ate half then left, I was going to order the fudge cake but dident know what to expect so left it and besides which I was begging to crown so need to get home to lay a cable.

The staff are friendly and the young lady who serves tries hard. The food was poor and small portions The staff need training - if you have specials tell the customers - Get a better cook - teach the young lady some basic serving skills I’m sure she would be excellent if given some help. Best quote Do you have a wine list? A- Yes Red, White & Rose

Arrived at 12pm for Sunday lunch with my husband and 4 year old daughter.We were explained that you could help yourself to a table, then order at the bar. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, making a special effort with our 4 year old daughter. Our daughter felt so comfortable, she even went to the bar herself to order dessert!My husband and I had a 3 course Sunday lunch for £11.95. The starters and desserts were delicious! The mains lunches were lovely too although slightly heavy on the potatoes with fewer light vegetables. This is simply personal taste.Enjoyed lunch, warm friendly atmosphere and would come again!

Went in as a group of 8 for dinner. Very friendly staff, excellent food and great beer. Ticked all my boxes.

We called in this evening for a few drinks in the sun and we were very impressed with the lady behind the bar, she was very pleasant with a good sense humour,but I can imagine that she gets a lot of people thinking the wrong way about her as she is very heavily tattooed but she has opened my eyes regarding that stigma surrounding ink on ladies, and I admire her attitude, she wears her ink with pride and isn't ashamed of her look, you could tell just by watching her and the way she was with the regular drinkers in there, that she is a well respected and liked person., and the people in there don't see her tattoos, they see her and only her,..she has banter to match even the wittiest of people, and can adjust her attitude to any age or gender.... You can really tell the old guys that were in this evening like her, and after talking to her, we found out that she suffered from anxiety and since working there she has come out the other end of the dark tunnel that brings. After talking to her, and having a good laugh at her ways, she certainly has a way of cheering people up. We would definitely recommend this place whether it be for a bite to eat or just a drink, you won't be disappointed.We were told that the manager that is in there now is leaving in the next couple of weeks and we really hope that whoever takes it over has the sense to keep this young lady on, the regulars like her and she makes you feel welcome as soon as you walk through the door...

There are no words to describe how bad this place is, they had 2 attempts at pulling our beer and in the end we gave up and had a wine, the food was either over cooked or under cooked and I've never seen fat on a turkey like it. As for the naan bread with the curry it was a boomarang. The senior citizens fish and chips was so tiny it was more a child's dish. Certainly not recommend!!!!

We decided to call in here for a bite to eat as were passing by.Pub was very quiet around 4pm,think the unusually warm weather had a play in this.We just wanted a quick bite to keep us going till dinner time.3 of us had baguettes,and 1 jacket potato.All very good and reasonably priced.Couldn't take a photo as my phone died.

Waited approximately 40 minutes for a main course in a quiet pub which was by no means full. All we got was "Sorry about the wait".

Friday evening and one girl behind the bar is also waitresing. Looks like chef is waiting on tables too. Wasn't busy we arrived but still took 45 mins for food to arrive. The food was average. Pay for what you get. Needed a steak knife for the steak but couldnt get out to ask staff for one as no room between the tables. Had to move our table so we could exit.

The hubby and I came in here to eat one Saturday lunch time while on our way to visit the daughter who lives in Huddersfield. We have passed The White Gate many times but never called in until then, so pleased we did do.

Really like this pub. Friendly staff. Good food I would recommend. Cheap drinks. Good atmosphere Very nice Country views.

Booked a table on the 20th for the three course Christmas fayre great value the staff were very friendly and the food was excellent no complaints.😁

My family go here and so did I 10 years ago but went last year and standards had slipped. We were told to go again so we did. I have fish and chips , wife had chicken and veg. The meal took 25 minutes to come but drink 5 mins. It was cool. My fish looked massive but when I dug in there was lots of batter and not much fish. The chicken was tough. We complained and went for a beef and veg. It appeared in 15 mins hot and tasty. So don't put up with rubbish and try again like we did because they can get it right. Good size car park.

Cannot comment on the food itself as we waited so long that we had to leave without eating. Were told food would be up to half an hour so that was fine but after 50 minutes asked how much longer as my daughter had a train to catch and was told it would be 5 mins as was just finishing our order, I said would it really be as if not we would have to leave but was assured 5 minutes. 10 minutes later still no food so had to request a refund and was asked what had we had!! Not enough staff obviously. Four people at next table ate and then ordered desserts which came well after we had ordered. Might be nice to eat lunch there if you have 2 hours, definitely not a place to go for lunch if you have to get back to work or catch a train to London within 2 1/2 hours!

Looking for a place to eat and drove to this place. Seemed ok and found a table to sit at. Number on desk to give

Popped in for lunch as we were passing, had eaten there before, but it was over a year ago, then everything was fine, not top notch but acceptable for a roadside pub.

We used to love this place and been several times since the new owners took over .. BUT … there are several things about the pub/restaurant that is beginning to niggle me.. There is a sign outside and several A4 signs stuck on the doors saying "SUNDAY LUNCH - 3 COURSE SET MENU £9.95" .. When my daughter ordered this, she was told it was not £9.95 as advertised, but £12.50 (isn't that illegal) ? .. When my daughter pointed out it said £9.95 on the board outside, she was told the pub was waiting for "them" to come and change it, but the £9.95 sign had been there for at least two months since the change to £12.50.. and there was still the A4 pieces of paper sellotaped to the doors with £9.95 still on them.. A very poor show indeed and does make you wonder - If they are slap-dash with their advertising, what else are they slap-dash at.

Went with daughter, grandson and husband for a meal. Ordered the deal of fish and chips for two and my daughter wanted chilli con carne burger which was on the menu as Wicked burger. The waitress who was so unfriendly it was unbelievable came some time later to say that they had no rice left (would you believe) and it would have to be chips which my daughter did not want. Turns out they had put down chilli con carne meal not burger. The girl was adamant my husband had asked for this and I then asked could she not change to the burger now seeing as how they had no rice. She was really rude and said she would ask to ask chef and walked away. When the meal came it was terrible over cooked chips turned dark brown, small bowl of chilli con carne and that was it. Our fish and chips were fine but far too many of the overcooked chips. Our little boy of 2 was presented with a huge plate of chips and chicken pieces and as the forks and knives on the table were huge, elaborately etched ones we asked for a smaller set and she said they had none. So he had to eat with his fingers. The new landlady is unfriendly too, this is our third visit since she took over and the other two times the staff were ok but we won't be going again.

Website says open till 11 but tell me that last order is half 7 and that before taken main plates and served pudding.

After driving passed this place week in week out. We decided to try the food here.

We called in at 8.30pm having seen the sign outside advertising food served 12-9. We asked the friendly barmaid if they were still serving food and she said yes, no problem. A couple followed us in and asked the same question and another member of staff (possibly the chef) said ok as long as you get a move on. He then told the barmaid she shouldn't accept orders after about 8.25 and moaned that people should come out earlier.

Went to the pub for a meal and drink.waited round the bar for 5 minutes to be served.Finally served and decided to order food only to be told they had no food ? Thought they did not want to serve food and this was at 8 in the evening.so had another drink and at 9 oclock was asked if I wanted another drink as the bar was closing.Make no wonder the pub is empty and how dare they advertise it as a local pub.What a load of rubbish for a old mill brewery pub

Popped in for tea having not been for a while due to poor meal and service to find new owners and what a change! Friendly staff, good service, hot food at good prices. Really enjoyed the whole experience and we will be back.

I Ordered the shepherds pie which was absolutely dreadful as it was swimming in fat which had soaked into the mash on top. The mince hadn't been cooked in gravy so the flavour it had was grease. The staff handled the complaint very well and offered a alterative meal very quickly which was mediocre.

Nice traditional pub with good food. Tidy and traditional, friendly staff and good selection of drinks.

Lovely food very friendly staff and lovely beer garden will definitely call again lovely clean pub thanks

The pub has a new owner and it is vastly improved

Absolutely fabulous Sunday Lunch once again. Great food and lovely friendly staff. Back on Thursday for tea 🖒🖒🖒

Absolutely vile,the pub was empty and they still managed to get the main meal and deserts wrong,never again

We went for lunch as we had heard that new managers had moved in a couple of weeks ago. Andy and partner Lisa are very experienced and formerly managers of the world famous Olde Cheshire Cheese in Fleet Street, London. Their experience and expertise shows. It is obvious that they have immediately got a grip on the place. The food and service was excellent at a very reasonable price. The staff were warm, welcoming and attentive, and the pub welcomes dogs which is great for those walking on the local moors. Top class roadside eatery.

Visited today for Sunday lunch our first visit & wont be our last. Had the three course lunch at the great price of £9.95 cant fault it. If you are ever in the area call in and give it a try you wont be disappointed. We will be back.

Ordered gammon meal chips undercooked onion rings dry gammon burnt like coal in places didnt eat it went to get a drink chef came to table offered to pay for drink my husband said i was at bar so he told him he would pay for it ma manager at bar offered to cook something else i said o id rather hav money back paid for my own drink chef didnt offer i told manager about food he started to get stroppy about the kitchen i could go in and look i told him im a qualified chef and know wben food is burnt i never got appology a dtink or a refund i emailed them snd got no reply last visit for mr

If you can't be bothered to cook mid week and you fancy a big meal on the cheap, this place is great. Steak was tasty, good side options, fast service. OK its not upmarket cuisine but does exactly what it says on the tin!!! We really enjoyed it and it didn't break the bank. We'll be back.

Group of 4 - I went for the Hunter's chicken which was fine. However, my parents ordered 'roast meals' from the OAP menu and got less than my 2 year old who had a meal from the kids menu. The place was freezing so we moved next to the fire which was barely on. We asked the waitress if we would put some logs on and she said she would have to ask somebody and never came back. The meat on the roast dinners was not carved from a joint, more like pre-packed luncheon meat that tasted really bad. We'll be back at the Pear Tree for out next outing.

Called in for a late lunch yesterday (Sat 4 th Nov) with my Mum, husband & son as we'd tried to eat at the Miller & Carter down the road & had got fed up of waiting for a table. Got a warm welcome at the bar, very pleasant lady took our order, found the pub & toilets clean, the menu was more varied than we expected. There was an extensive range of traditional pub food, 2 of us had the cheese burger which came with salad & skinny fries, 1 had gammon, egg, onion rings, salad & chunky fries & I had giant Yorkshire pudding with 2 types of meat (pork & turkey, could have had beef as well) mash, little boiled potatoes, carrots, broccoli & cauliflower & gravy. All the food was hot & filling, just what we needed, we all enjoyed our food & felt full up. We would definitely visit again for a casual meal, it's not really the sort of place for a posh meal or celebration but for an every day meal it was great. They also seemed to do senior citizens portions for reasonable prices. Overall a nice place to eat.

2 regulars took 2 guests for lunch ,we were the guests. Friendly welcome. Minor requested adjustments to the main course dishes were met. Strange that the menu just said white fish without identifying the type . Beef stroganoff was served pre plated with rice,potatoes and over cooked cauliflower and broccoli...strange combination. Roast of the day was served within a giant Yorkshire pudding with the meat being ,,,well .brown and the gravy obviously turning the pud base into a soggy gloop.

We had heard fabulous things of The White Gate, especially the cafe. I decided to treat my Mum and take her there for lunch. My Mum uses a walker to assist her and is not very mobile. When we went in we had to walk right around the shop to get to the cafe, my Mum did ask which was the easiest way to the cafe and, bearing in mind she was using her walking frame, was directed to an entrance with steps!! With the help of other members of the public we got her down the steps to then find there is a ramped walkway, but we weren't told this and there is no signage. The cafe was extremely busy, the staff were pleasant and the food was okay, hot and fresh. The tables however are crammed in and again we had problems getting seated because of Mums mobility and again it was members of the public that assisted us rather than staff. I personally wouldn't visit again, we went on what we thought would be a quieter day but it was overcrowded and stressful. It is definitely not user friendly for disabled or those with poor mobility.

We happened upon the White Gate on a night out treat. we had tried to get a table at two other restaurants but being 'pay day' weekend we were out of luck (or so we thought). Heading back towards home in the dark and rain we saw the 'Food served here' sign and decided a pub meal would be better than no meal. The empty car park gave no warning of the lovely warm welcome we were to receive! With plenty of choice from the pub food menu we soon made our choices and in a reasonable amount of time some lovely 'grub' appeared. It tasted as good as it looked; staff were attentive but not overly and other diners, though few, seemed very happy with their experience. We will certainly visit again probably to try something off the Sunday lunch menu. It;s a shame it was so quiet as people are missing out on a little gem!

We were hungry, so called in here for a beer and some food.We had a choice of two real ales, so opted for the bitter and a blonde.The barmaid was friendly and we were soon seated at a table by a window and next to a real fire.The pub has some interesting lighting features in what appears to be chandeliers, but on closer inspection turns out to be inverted wine glasses. Very clever.We opted for Chicken Caesar Salad and the Steak Pie and chips with peas. Nothing too fancy, but it was very tasty and well cooked.The service was efficient.We would come here again.

Fantastic service and menu today Sunday roast on a Monday just what the doctor ordered hot food all .came out together great value £9.90 for three fabulous courses will Dec to be back

My daughter worked here a good number of years ago and food was lovely, but I haven't been in a while, it was Hobson Choice tonight but I thought they always did a nice steak so we gave it a go. Won't be returning staff friendly and pub clean and tidy, food not so much. Garlic mushrooms starter very nice except the Garlic bread was undercooked, my friends Calamari was in bread crumbs deep fat fried, very hard to cut. We both ordered steak and was surprised not to see rump, sirloin or ribeye on the menu, it was just described as prime steak, very accommodating when it came to asking for veg not Chips, one steak ordered medium, one rare. On being served the steaks there were plenty of potatoes and veg on the plates, mushrooms were nice onion rings again deep fat fried couldn't even cut them with a steak knife, garden peas like bullets and then the steak not nice at all, the rare had never seen rare more like medium, very fatty and hard to cut and quite tasteless. The Medium one was more like well done and again very hard to cut and tasteless. No one came during the meal to ask if it was ok and we were sat quite a while before they cleared the plates (that may have been because they thought we hadn't finished as we both left half the steak and onion rings and veg on the plates) when they did clear we were asked if it was ok and we said no and told them about the steaks. The cook offered there apologies and we were asked if we would like a free dessert or drink, we opted for a pot of tea for 2. Won't be returning even if it was only £36 for both meals, have paid same in other pubs and enjoyed it so much better. Very disappointed.

Went to whitegates pub on a recommendation,had £10.00 Sunday lunch 3 courses was okay hot garlic mushrooms were good, then had roast pork was ok let down by frozen yorkie puss.pudding ok sticky toffee pud and custard, all in all just Ok for the money.

Went as we were advised that the was a nice new menu and was ment to be really nice. We had not been for a year so thought we would try it out. Food was ok. Looked like the place had had a bit of a revamp but not much of one tbh. Id go for a pint after work but as gor a meal.... think id go elsewhere tbh.

We have been here several times for drinks and have enjoyed the comfy atmosphere however we went for Sunday lunch and were not so impressed.They do a 3 course set menu for £9.95, so fair enough it's not going to be great food but it wasn't too bad, I had the garlic mushrooms to start and the portion was huge--- I only ate half, the beef was quite nice with veg and Yorkshire pudding , and the pudding was very nice I had chocolate fudge cake with cream, our problem was the slow service, maybe they were short staffed as the staff that were working did their best to keep things moving. I would call here again for drinks but not sure about having food .
