Horrible experience! I politely asked one question about the ingredients of an item due to intolerance to be met with the manager ranting at me telling me “im not the only customer in here” and “they don’t have time to be in and out of the kitchen looking at items”. It was very upsetting and uncalled for. I simply wanted to know if the bread contained soya if so I would have chosen something else. I’m sorry but as an establishment it’s a legal requirement to be able to provide information regarding intolerances and allergies. I stated it wasn’t a full allergy therefore no risk from cross contamination but was told I should “go somewhere else as it’s not on them”. Both the manager and waitress were very rude to the whole group and unaccommodating. No need to speak to customers that way. Do NOT recommend.

Lovely views from this pub make it a pleasant experience to sit and relax and have a drink. Had a pot of tea earlier in the day and it was great with the views etc, so we went back for a couple of Boaters Blonde ale's later in the day. Unfortunately, this is were it went downhill. They only do two cask and we thought we'd sample one of them which would be ok if it were not cloudy and flat. I'm sure the response would be if we asked we could of changed them, but its just frustrating to be served them in the first place.

So this listing is wrong. The resturaunt is the Waterbird and the hotel is now a different listing called the Lakes hotel and Sa. Ate at the waterbird this weekend and it wasnt a great experience. The maitre d was very rude about wanting us to order because "our kitchen cannot cater for a lot of meals and we have a large booking coming" despite us arriving at the time we was aked to come for. Both meals were good but not great Pidgeon was tough and the stake wasnt cooked as asked. For £15 starters and £25+ mains you expect the best not average.

This is the first time that we have stayed here and we were not disappointed. The family room that my friend and I stayed in was clean, warm and comfortable. The beds were amazingly comfortable, and we could not fault anything. All of the staff that we spoke with were friendly, courteous and helpful. Unfortunately there is, at present, no evening meals available but we were allowed to have takeaway meals in the room. Overall an absolutely fantastic stay in an amazing hotel. Thank you so so much 😊

Great ales, great atmosphere, great prices. Landlord/lady were great hosts and even better with our shy, nervous dog. Great pub

The food was absolutely gorgeous . All the staff were amazing but Astoria was attentive and made our evening so enjoyable. She is a credit to the Albert. The Johnny Morton Show which was on a Monday he is pure class and such a talent. Can’t wait to come back next year.

We’d visited this pub some years ago for a drink so decided to call in again for tea. I’d read the reviews which sounded good, so Friday night called in to find busy lively pub. Ordered fish pie and steak and ale pie with a pint of Robinsons ale. The food was wonderful. The steak and ale pie was a straight TEN. Fish pie could have had more fish and prawns so an EIGHT. Good portions and great atmosphere. The place was buzzing, and you can see why. You have to wait for a table but it’s well worth waiting. All the food we could see looked fab. We’ll be back soon.

Extremely rude staff and awful food. We’ve been here several times but the bar staff have got worse each time. My advice, do not go.

£17 for a bacon sandwich, sausage sandwich and 2 teas ! Waited 30 mins for the order and watched serving staff clean the bristles of a floor brush behind the bar. When asked where my order was I was told "oops sorry I forgot it"! When the sandwiches arrived they were awful, overcooked, tasteless and tired.

Luke warm food, takes ages and husband had a bad stomach after having the Chowder. Such a shame. They've spent a fortune doing this place up and it looks great. Great looking menu, unfortunately what's happening in the kitchen? We ordered a soup & chowder, which took 30 minutes and came out warm. The chips were also warm, not hot. This is not a complicated order and wasn't busy. On the way home my husband was complaining about a bad stomach, which he rarely gets. The bar staff and waiting staff are really lovely, but the food is a massive let down.

Decided to book here after seeing the menu advertised on Google. I would suggest not advertising a restaurant if you do not want external guests dining in your establishment! From the second we stepped foot in the building we were looked up and down and made to feel very unwelcome. We wanted to leave but with it already being 7.30pm we’d left it quite late for dinner so decided to see it through. We had filthy looks from the staff throughout the less than 60 minutes we endured. The food was average, lamb still had string on it and was very over cooked. We were given the option for dessert to which we responded ‘no’ for the waiter to signal a thumbs up to the front of house who proceeded to smile knowing we were soon to leave. We asked for the bill, paid and left straight away. Absolutely gutted we spent our last night here and will never EVER return. Disgusting treatment in what looked like a train station waiting room.
