The best restaurants serving British food in Dunchurch and Knightlow Rugby West Midlands

I’ve never been before but I wasn’t overly impressed we booked the 2:30 sitting when we arrived the tiny reception area was crambed until people were seated. There is an overwhelming smell of musty food the decor is dated tables are a mix mash of wood and plastic covered, cutlery is basic as are plates. Onto the main part the food, starter was lovely mushrooms on sour bread presentation could be better , main was a choice of beef turkey pork beef and gammon downsides was the only vegetarian option was sausage 36£ for sausage roast is a bit expensive vegetable options were mash potato, carrots, roast potatoes, cabbage no cauliflower cheese, parsnips etc Pudding was ok nothing special. Overall I was underwhelmed and have had better in better surroundings.

Lovely setting and delicious food. The breakfast menu has lots of variety and options to pick from to suit different tastes. We will be returning in the future, especially as it’s only a stones throw away from the quantocks.

Quite busy, which isn't a bad thing. At the time of booking, wheelchair access was requested, but it may have been overlooked. The staff resolved it by moving 2 tables to accommodate 8 guests. To be honest, it's a bit tight for 2 wheelchair users to move around, and there are steps to different levels, so the choices of eating areas are quite restricted. Food ordering is QR code and smart app. The carvery was simple and tasty, reasonably good choice of vegetables. Desserts were good, and the table service was fine. The accessibility for the toilet (singular) wasn't the best. The wheelchair had to be left in the hallway because there was no room for the chair and user to be in there at the same time. Pricing was about average. Might be a while before I go back, but I probably will at some point in the future.

We had a lovely meal and the staff are friendly

Really friendly staff and good food whichisalsogood value. Dog friendly in the bar. Good selection of beer We will be back

Have been visiting the DunCow for years and its reputation for food is hit and miss. The last visit was definitely a miss. The ‘Hunters Chicken’ was a very dry chicken burger with a slice of melted orange cheese, 2 rashers of bacon (they were tasty) and a teaspoon of dried on barbecue sauce, a pinch of leaves and 7 chips. I paid the bill and left there is no point in complaining it’s what you have to expect sometimes it’s lovely food other times it’s dire. I have been for breakfast before and it was lovely. The DunCow is always busy which is great very popular for a drink but for food try the Cinnamon Lounge or Green Man.

Dobbies has destroyed this once lovely garden centre. They’ve reduced it to an eclectic expensive soulless warehouse. Checkout women was miserable! Cafe is more like a canteen and I found it almost impossible to find a clean plate in the pile of illegally clean plates. There was no ambiance or atmosphere of any kind! The management respond to the criticism by way of acknowledgement but they’ve done nothing about it. I should have read the reviews before going as I could have saved myself a journey! What a flea pit! Surprised at Waitrose!
