A last-minute decision to eat out and we decided to at the 3 Elms. I'm glad we did as the food was above our expectations and Jessica, our hostess, was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble for her. She is most definitely an asset to the company and we hope to return again.

Been coming here for a while now and our experience has always been a good one. Food was always lovely service was great a lovely all round place to bring the kids for a cheap meal out. We visited yesterday for the first time in a few months and noticed for a Friday night the eating areas was very quiet. Anyway we ordered our food and decided to try the new Burger on the menu. Food arrived quickly. The girls burgers were great, but when we tried our burger the taste combo was awful. I would in my opinion had presented the burger on the plate and not cut in half in a dish with the cheese and chilli sauce smothering the bottom of burger making it soggy. Being a ex chef myself I would definitely tweak that meal and the tastes as it wasn’t a great taste it was like eating soft melted cheese with stewed steak and a hint of chilli all mixed in one. Also noticed the mess all over the carpets in our surroundings, with just a stale odour. We will come again I’m sure but this experience wasn’t good feel like it’s gone down hill to where months ago we couldn’t get a table to eat unless we booked.

Called in yesterday I was greeted by Jess with a smile and a friendly manner as was all the customers she served.Jess even took drinks to people's tables if they were less mobile,one of the best visits to a pub in Whitchurch.

Came here with my sister and young kids and ordered a medium rare steak. Steak came out overcooked and let the server know and without a problem took it back. She even asked the kitchen to cook my steak rare. 20+ minutes later my new steak came out and was more well done than my first steak (picture below). Server asked how it was and told her it was well done but will try and eat it. Unfortunately I find well done steaks tough and dry and couldn't eat it. I went up to the bar and asked the manager for a refund which she gave no questions asked. Neither the manager or server seemed surprised by the kitchens efforts. Will return for the good prices as a family and the fact the service was good despite the food but will not be ordering a steak from them again. Haven't had an issue with my steaks there before this (haven't been since April) and just felt let down by the whole experience as was my first time eating out in over 6 months.

Good atmosphere with reasonable priced beverages. We attended this establishment after eating at a local restaurant. To be honest, this was not our first choice as there were other pubs near to where we were and ones which we have attended previously. However, they were closed. Which we were glad of once we got settled here. Staff were attentive, landlady Jade was superb and the end of our evening great. Thank you.

Usually come here and it’s nice food but was awful on a sunday. We had a sunday roast, the carrots and green beans weren’t cooked at all and had THE smallest amount of mash i have ever seen. My baby had tomato pasta and chips and didn’t eat a bit of it and i don’t blame her🤢 Pasta tasted like washing up liquid and her chips were just outright disgusting. We come here regularly and the food is always ok but will never come again especially on a sunday. They forgot half of our food too as they do everytime. Each time we have come here we’ve had to ask for a part of our meal because they’ve “forgot” it. Was absolutely empty and for a sunday thought that was quite strange😬

Ok experience but Booked a table before hand and once arrived waited a while before someone noticed us waiting, but I get it, staff were busy. We then got told that someone was actually sitting on our table but we could sit on table 31, went to 31 to find people already on that table. Went back to wait by the desk before someone evenually came and we explained what had happened who pointed us to another table that hadn't been wiped down and was covered in food. I ordered the southern comfort texas toast and I was literally served half a loaf of bread that wasn't properly toasted and I didn't realise until later that there was also no cheese in it. I'd probably come back as the two for one burger deal is worth it but wouldn't bother booking a table as they give it away anyway and wouldn't come during school holidays.

My guest almost swallowed a jagged piece of glass that had been left in a pint glass. When I asked the manager to exchange the pint for a bottle - as my friend didn't feel comfortable with the state of the glassware - she told me I couldn't exchange the drink. I had to accept a 3-5 day refund and buy a bottle to replace my friend's drink. As a bar manager with 16 years of experience across several national bar groups, I'm well aware of the process surrounding placing a drink onto a tab and cashing it off as waste at the end of a shift, before z-reading a till. It would appear that the sum of one bottle against yield is more important to Green King than their duty of care toward their customers. If any of my staff had broken a glass, I would make them un-rack every glass, put every glass and the runner through the glasswash, and hand scrub the surface. If a piece of glass wound up in a customer's mouth after that, I would refund their drink and comp their next drink. This is a fundamental aspect of good customer service that I teach staff on their first shift. If Green King wish to seek regional training of their South Wales based bar managers and their regional operations team from an experienced trainer then please do contact me to discuss rates. The desired standard is not hard to attain; this experience proves that the current standard is measurably below acceptable and the ops manager is to blame. Edit: As you can see, Green King have asked that I contact them but haven't left an email address which suggests to me that they don't actually want to resolve the issue, they just want to appear publicly to be addressing the issue.

We had our end of season football meal here for a kid team. The boys absolutely loved it. We were given a section of the seating area, booking was hassle free and the staff did everything they could to help. The service was amazing. A busy Saturday night plus it's too get sorted and they did a great job. It happened to be karaoke night, the kids joined in and it made their day. Despite being a large group and having over 20 kids in the group, they were welcomed and cheered on by the locals. We've been as a family as well and it's always an easy place to be.
