Booked a table for Sunday lunch upon arrival we were shown upstairs which was a bit gritty compared to downstairs but this place had come as highly recommended. Before we were seated one of our party did ask if all choices of meat were available to which she was told yes and then asked what drinks we would like the waitress didn’t know what lager was available and had to go ask which fair enough she may have been new. Waited approx 20mins for drinks to be served then to be asked if we would like to order food but told that there is no lamb or pork and only 1 beef dinner left chicken and gammon or we can order pie. If we had been told this before being seated and served drinks we would not ha...

Went here for the first time in several years. It used to be very nice with excellent food, but not now. On entering it still looked very nice surroundings and we were treated straight away and led to our table. However we were served by two young girls that clearly lacked in training. How to deal with customers, be knowledgeable about the menu ect ect. They constantly entered the room serving other tables but not scanning the room as they left. This made it very difficult to catch their eye when we needed drinks, even then she didn’t know what I meant when I tried to order a bottle of Prosecco and not two separate glasses. I had a Fillet Stake. Not a particularly difficult meal to cook, but...
Our friends brought us to this restaurant and made a reservation for us. They are regulars here and we were warmly welcomed and sat at a round table towards the back of the restaurant. Our orders were taken quickly, but since the food is made fresh, it took some time to be served. I had the king prawn tagliatelle, which was delicious once I removed the red peppers. My husband ordered the chicken with Diane sauce and chips, one friend had the pan fried hake, and the other had the lamb chops. We all enjoyed our meals and even had room for dessert. Two of us had the sticky toffee pudding, while the other two had fruit salad. The white wine we ordered was also delicious. Unfortunately, our eveni...
Heard lots of glowing comments about this establishment and delighted to have the chance to patronise. Set in a nice village. Good menu for Sunday lunch all starters were good and the tomato soup was spicy as listed very nice. The waiting staff were all friendly one main course was wrong but one of the party felt able to accept that as opposed to waiting for a replacement. It happens and communication can break down anywhere plus the place was very busy. No harm done. The wine was lovely nice glassware. A great time and I d recommend. Book a table now
Was really pleased to be able to get a table for two with twenty mins notice. Food was really good, lots of taste and service was also good. Ordered steak cooked exactly as requested, very good quality. Also chicken Kiev which was also lovely, starters were great too. Would also recommend this place for Sunday dinner as had that a few times too.
The food was excellent and very well presented. The menu had a great selection. However, the wait time was too long. The staff were friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. The use of a mobile phone by another guest was a bit annoying. I will definitely come back.
If you're looking for delicious food served by a friendly staff in a modern and clean setting, then this is the place for you! We have visited multiple times and have always been impressed - the food here is consistently excellent.
The Talbot is a very impressive. The decor, atmosphere, staff, service was top class. The food was gorgeous fish platter and sea bass we'll have again. We will return and will definitely spread the word about this great find. Book a table now
It was our first visit to The Talbot and it was quite a pleasant one. The pub is very nicely decorated and a lovely environment. The food was very tasty and plentiful, but the service was very slow. But we will be back again.
dreadful service waited 1and half hours for our meal not so much as an apology place has gone drastically downhill won’t be going again
