"Went in for lunch on Saturday. Dog friendly, so OK. Service welcoming and quick. Food was OK, but not great. Had coffee after meal, milk was curdled, sent back. Overall, food, drink, and the unexpected service charge, was, overpriced and not great. Such a shame, as pub used to have a good village pub reputation."

We had last diner here about two years ago. This visit was disappointing. The menu seemed much shorter than before; for instance, the range of skewered dishes, always one of the tempting choices, was down to one. We both had Beef and Guinness pie. This was not cubes of steak, as you would expect, but pulled beef. It was dry, and needed the separate serving of gravy to make it palatable. It only had a covering of pastry. I do three beef casserole dishes at home that are more tasty than this; I would expect something extra if I am paying for it. Even worse, the mashed potato appeared to be out of a packet! I had a Bakewell tart for pudding, but it might have been from a pack of 6 from Sainsbur...

Lovely pub and location.lm afraid to say that the food was awful.we both had the beef and guineas pie,there was hardly anything below the sunken pie crust, one was full of gristle a cabbage leaf add colour ,a spoonful of mashed potatoes finished the plate of food. No I wouldn't eat there again. And certainly did not pay the £5 service charge . I would add that the service was excellent,and was impressed when the girl relaying the table dropped a fork and fetched a clean one .Disappointed. K.A.E .

The food at this restaurant was excellent. The soup was served at just the right temperature with delicious bread. The turkey roast was delicious, accompanied by plenty of vegetables and extra gravy upon request. The Christmas pudding Eaton mess was unique, tasty, and beautifully decorated with orange pieces. The staff were helpful and polite. I would recommend this restaurant and definitely plan to visit again.

We made a reservation for Sunday lunch with our extended family. The restaurant is absolutely charming, and we received a warm welcome upon our arrival. The staff was attentive and went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. Most of us ordered the roast beef and we all thought it was excellent. The food and service were outstanding. We will definitely return.
