When first walked in staff where brilliant during seating and ordering food, when my food came out there was a piece of plastic in my chicken new yorker, when I ordered 4 kids meals there was a main 2 sides drink and desert, when ordering was told can order dessert after food. When I went to order the desserts female member of staff was rude and abrupt, instead of explain we should of ordered when we ordered food she wanted to charge me an additional £2 for each dessert. When the dessert where only cost £1.49, her attitude was awful, will not go back again

Nice pub for a chilled out pint, great selection of food, we had the breakfast and it was ample to line the stomach before a session. Drinks were reasonably price and the atmosphere was excellent with a calm in the air no animosity etc. Will definitely return, we were a party of 18 so handled very well

Very nice little pub. Food was amazing my hunters chicken was cooked to perfection, very soft and with plenty of bacon and cheese on the top. Onion rings- one of the best we've ever had. Peppercorn sauce - first one I've ever liked in my life. Atmosphere is very cosy, with nice music on the background with just right amount of volume. Staff are very friendly and professional. Although I am personally very picky, my experience was a 5* all over

If you park on the car park you are subject to a fine as it is for permit holders only, there no signs stateing this and no machine in the pub to put your registration number into , so you could end up having an expensive experience at this pub, only attended a family engagement party which cost me a fortune due to a pathetically large parking fine,

Great pub. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to help, Theres a wide variety of drinks and the food menu caters for everyone, as a vegetarian it's great that they offer more non meat options than the "fake meat" vegan choice that seems to be the norm in most places now. Would recommend.

Well it’s with great sadness I write this. I have had Sunday dinner over here before in small group and it’s great food. We were a group of 10. 1 child and high chair. That shouldn’t be a problem but it’s Christmas. Sat down ordered our meal. The meals came out with some having wrong meats and one with cold meat. That was sent back. That took a while to return. Asked for more veg. This took ages to get to table. Well that’s when they the young servers started spilling the gravy down peoples coats. The gravy boat too full. He just couldn’t see the gravy pooping out the front. Well we eventually settled down and had nice food. Which is not my complaint. Well we waited to be asked what we wanted for desert eventually going to bar to ask if we could order this. Well it was ages bring to table in small or two plates at a time. We asked ice cream no sprinkles no chocolate just plain ice cream. You guessed it. Ice cream white sauce and sprinkles on. When the last two eventually got their desert and eating they asked to settle the bill and vacate the table as we had been over two hours and they had another sitting wanting to use table. Your having a laugh. We will vacate when we have finished. It’s not our problem service was so slow and confused. Would advise longer time on tables for larger parties of faster service I must say we had a discount on the drinks which was welcomed and I would return as food is generally good value but return in smaller party. Sorry to write this I’m a local and will return but needed to do this as it took the shine off a family’s Christmas get together.

some of the staff are very unfriendly and questioned our party quite angrily about items we had been authorised to bring into the venue. She also threw away birthday gifts and cards and was very aggressive and rude. I work in hospitality and understand it’s a difficult field to work in however her attitude was untoward or not very well presented at all. However, the gentleman behind the bar was lovely and good but cheesy live music that the rest of the party enjoyed.

Having worked at The 3 Horseshoes while I was at University and having been a regular here for 25 years, I know a few things about this place. Quite simply it is now better than it has ever been. The food is as good as home cooked, especially on a Sunday which os no mean feat! One of the best lunches around in an area with plenty of competition! Beats carveries and chains hands down. Clean, vibrant and modern without being pretentious. Excellent value and the service is spot on. In 10 or so visits there was a slight problem with bookings and availability of items on one occasion. The manager listened to our complaint and she more than made up for the mix up. Absolutely nothing bad to say about the new Horseshoes, or its new proprietor and employees. Long may it continue! Thankyou!👍👍👍

Me encantó la presentación y la vajilla.El ambiente era bueno y el personal estaba realmente encima de asegurarse de que tuviéramos suficientes bebidas, etc. Todo estaba bien explicado al principio y me sentí cómodo yendo allí.¡Definitivamente lo recomendaría!
