We thought this would be a bit more of an enjoyable carvery rather than the usual Toby or other similar groups, how I wish we would have gone to one of the others! The pub was very quiet and asked for a table for two the only option being a very small table or one next to the carvery which would be very hot, despite the fact that there were many tables left empty the whole time we were there. We waited 10 minutes for our drinks order to be taken and ended up going to the bar ourselves. We then had to ask about getting the carvery as nobody had still been to us. Food was very bland , tasteless and looked very unappealing, I've never had to chew roast potatoes before! We sat outside afterwards...

Called at The Dam Inn, Newmillerdam, for Sunday carvery as we were passing on our way shopping. We usually have Sunday lunch at The Elephant and castle in Hemingfield wish we had on this occasion too!! Good points Yorkshire puddings, beef and horseradish sauce were lovely Negative points with exception of the pease, all the vegetables were bland and soggy. In particular the cauliflower cheese, which was a pile of tasteless mush! When asked if ‘everything had been alright’, I replied that we would not be returning. I was asked why, so expressed the reasons above. The only thing that was said in reply to this , was ‘sorry about that, enjoy the rest of your day’. They should take their own advi...
We were looking for somewhere to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary on 21 Oct 2023 with our sons and their families. We had provisionally booked elsewhere we called in The Dam to see if they had any available bookings. After talking to Josh the manager for a couple of minutes we changed our mind and decided to cancel the other booking and book the Dam instead. Are we gals we did? You bet we were so were all the family. It was apparent that what we wanted was more important than what they had available. They were brilliant. Very friendly but professional as well. The service was excellent and so was the food. Everyone said how good it was. Thank you Josh staff you really helped make our...
Visited this place today and was very impressed! This is a great place for food. Monday to Wednesday buy 2 meals for £14! Not small portions either. We had gluten free fish chips and I have got to say that they were the best I’ve tried ever. My husband who is not gluten intolerant said he couldn’t believe how good they were. Pub very clean and tidy, staff very friendly and helpful. Dog friendly, water supplied for the dogs and treats given out by staff. Lovely place, fully recommend it and we will definitely be going back! Book a table now

The Carvery was lovely plenty of choice and the drinks too were lovely Great atmosphere great location and friends can’t wait to return Thanks to all the staff
I called in yesterday 24/10/24 with my wife to try the two for £14 offer and we were very surprised how good the meal was, my wife had hunter's chicken with fries and proper onion rings (not reformed) and she really enjoyed it there were loads of very tender chicken, I had scampi fries and peas the scampi was delicious large pieces of scampi again not reformed. I would definitely recommend that you try it. For £14 it was a bargain
Ate here yesterday. Called for a drink and saw the special offer 2 meals £14 (Monday to Wednesday) so decided to order. We both had fish and chips. Well it should be called batter and chips as there was the smallest piece of fish ever covered in loads of batter. I know it’s an offer but surely it should be a descent small portion of fish. We both said it’s the worst fish we’ve ever had.
Make sure you get a table before paying for parking as they wont refund. £2 out of pocket. The place was full no tables available and a long wait. Book a table now
Lovely Sunday carvery. Tender meat and gorgeous Yorkshire puddings. Our 9 year old said it’s the best pub meal he’s had. He loves a carvery.
Lovely food very busy .Bit of squash for getting wheelchair in due to being busy but staff very helpful

"We enjoyed a delicious lunch of tapas at this restaurant. The portions were generous - we shared 5 dishes between the two of us and also received a complimentary bottle of house wine. The food was flavorful and very enjoyable."
