This is our favourite restaurant/pub and after three years of regular visits and superb food every time, I thought it worth a well-earned high-praise review. Apart from the occasional evening event, (they hold special themed nights from time to time), it's generally lunches we go for. The quality of the food is consistently high and the service very friendly and professional. The menu is understandably quite small, given that everything is cooked to order but seems varied enough for most tastes. Despite the high standard of cooking and produce, the prices are very competitive indeed. It does get quite busy some days despite being a bit off the beaten track, so best to book if possible. There is a large secluded back garden with seating, (where they hold their events), and a good children's play area. The building itself is still an old unspoilt country pub and serves at least two different real ale. Can't fault the Plough at all really.

Firstly, as a pub it’s absolutely fine. Probably as good a Spoons as you will find. Specific gripe - brought the kids last week to eat and ordered through the app - chips “sold out” ! What sort of Spoons runs out of chips? They could have just gone to one of the 4 nearby supermarkets for more? We left because the kids had decided they wanted pizza and chips. Went back today - Saturday lunch time. Again ordering through the app at least half of the menu listed as “sold out” ! Managed to choose 4 meals from what was left. Then ordering drinks for the kids - no coke (actually Pepsi / Pepsi max) or lemonade!! I mean what sort of pub runs out of coke and lemonde on a Saturday lunch time ?? Won’t bother again.

Visited today (a Saturday) for coffee and cake with a friend. The cafe was almost empty with 2 staff working, yet it took forever for drinks to arrive. We asked for a menu and the waitress practically threw it at us. My friend ordered a fruit tea and asked that the water not be boiling hot, but she was told that the water came as it came (adding a bit of cold water before adding hot water would have sufficed). The server was quite sharp and blunt, we weren’t happy, so we left and spent our money somewhere else.

Have been coming for years, always enjoy the breakfast, but couldn’t sit on certain tables as they are expecting ‘a rush’ it was 8.45am, we sat on the uncomfortable chairs and waited to see the ‘rush’……didn’t happen Poor all round won’t be coming back.

Many villages are losing their pubs, and this one is hanging on in there, and probably will for some time to come. The welcome given to a somewhat 'senior' mini bus full of drinkers riding around the vale, was warm and service and quality of the beers on offer was fine. Gardens are tidy and the flowers are lovely, but everywhere has a slightly 'shabby' appearance, and no doubt this is reflected in the fact that this hostelry is well off the beaten track, and has not found it's niche as a quality calling venue, and therefore it's profits are no doubt near the bone. Good luck to it, a very pleasant pub to visit, but for me not quite one of those at the top !

Stopped in for lunch and some shopping. Tried fish n chips in cafe one with beans and other mushy peas. Very large fish, all fish unlike some the have half an inch batter on each end. Had to wait about 10 mins as cooked fresh and excellent value at £6.99 each.
