The Axe And Compasses

We visited mid week to find the pub very busy which gave it a great atmosphere. The Pub is broken up into separate areas for eating and drinking with two very attractive seating areas outside. Its a pub well supported by the locasl and you can just pop in for a drink. We were greeted with a welcome roaring fire in the bar area on a very cold evening. Its everthing you would want in a traditional country village pub. The menu is interesting and varied with reasonable prices. The food we chose was excellent with the best of ingredients used. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout our visit.

The reconstruction after the fire has been down sympathetically and staff still giving excellent service.Understandably prices have increased which is to be expected, We got the impression that chiefs my have changed as the quality of the food was down in that there was only 2 vegetables served and no choice of potatoes given, the beef medallions was tough and very thin more like rump sliced. Desert were served but no cream or ice cream offered to accompany , perhaps it’s just me living on past experience but overall still love the venue

First visit since refurbishment. Excellent choice of main courses and puddings and service was well above average as it always had been. Chicken Supreme was particularly good. Creme Caramel with cream wonderful.

Brilliant evening with very fine food and drink, and service too. My pork belly with bubble and squeak was memorable, and all our friends commented on the quality of their choices.
