I was very disappointed with my experience at the restaurant today. We were not allowed to open a tab to order our drinks and meals, and had to pay the full balance upfront. The food was processed and served so quickly that it seemed like a reheated meal. The fish in batter was not crispy and the sausage dinner was lackluster, especially considering the price. We have frequented the Plough and Harrow many times in the past and have always enjoyed high quality food, but this visit was a letdown. We will have to think twice before returning, which is a shame considering it is a lovely historical venue.
We were camping just down the road at the Heritage Coast Campsite and stopped in the Plough and Harrow for Sunday lunch. I'd call it a proper country pub lots of character, good food and some excellent drinks. There were a couple of real ales on tap (Jemima's Pitchfork was really nice), but for me the local ciders were the highlight far too drinkable for their strength. The Sunday roast was very good, the beef, lamb and turkey were all lovely, and the Bara Brith bread pudding was really goog too.
Awesome food, really tasty and a big portion and a great price. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I went on a Monday so it wasn't too busy and they have a lovely beer garden with lots of benches, it was the perfect finish to a lovely coastal hike in the sun.
We love discovering old-fashioned pubs that have retained their authenticity and charm, serving excellent ale and offering a warm welcome. This pub checks all those boxes and more. It’s our favorite stop on the Vale Real Ale Trail.

The food at this restaurant is good, but the overall experience is disappointing due to the unfriendly and unhelpful staff who are not welcoming, surly, and hesitant to take orders or clear tables.
Great little pub which seems very popular given its secluded location especially when the sun is out. Good selection of drinks and food together with top notch service
Awesome rural and historic pub. Inside is for winter and outside for the sunshine. Small but perfectly formed! Sometimes live music in the summer.
It was OK, chilli was quite good, but chips were not fresh and seemed hard as if they had been re-fried perhaps.

I'm a huge huge fan. What an incredible place and such an asset to its community.
Quick service even though very busy. Only had soup but very nice.
