"We had a difficult journey and felt that 4pm was late to be admitted. As its not open there's no choice. Room was comfortable and spotlessly clean, the bathroom gleamed. Never found the Alexa, must have been her day off. Disappointed to get down for evening meal, and walk ins got better tables. We were directed to a gloomy part, but luckily somebody left so we asked for a better view. We found the meal was the worst of the holiday. Husband's tempura prawns were in a heavy batter. Should be light . I've never seen a Caesar salad like it. Bland pieces of chicken on top of some lettuce leaves, shavings of parmesan, and 4 slices of bread stuck on top. Should be croutons and tossed in a dressing. My lasagne hadn't much taste, and just had cheese on top. It looked like a ready meal bought in. Didn't risk dessert. Not risking a return visit either."

"I believe in supporting small businesses, but I was disappointed with the experience at this restaurant. My daughter received a voucher for afternoon tea, but we realized it was only valid for 6 months. When we called to extend it, we were told that they were closed for 3 weeks of the month they offered for the extension. The response we received was that prices had gone up and they couldn't extend the voucher. I also bought a voucher for my sister-in-law, who asked for an extension and was denied. While the sandwiches were good, the rest of the food was not impressive. Despite the friendly staff, I will not be recommending this restaurant anymore to my brother's bed and breakfast. The 6-month gift voucher policy is inflexible and lacks grace."

"The Top Bar offers a lovely, quiet, and cozy atmosphere, featuring just three tables with around 14 seats, creating an intimate dining experience. For lunch, we enjoyed salmon wrapped in prosciutto, accompanied by black forest cheesecake and whisky crème brûlée for dessert. The salmon was rich yet complemented beautifully by the prosciutto, and it was served with a well-flavored celeriac cake that stood out on the plate. Among the desserts, the crème brûlée was indulgently rich, creamy, and generously sized, while the cheesecake skillfully combined chocolate with cherries in kirsch, resulting in a delightful treat. The service was prompt and friendly, making for a wonderful lunch in a charming setting."

"My partner and I came here for an evening meal when staying at the Baron at Bucknell. My partner called up first to book a table having found good reviews online. The lady on the phone was extremely helpful and provided directions perfectly as she explained the sat nav may take you a longer route. We followe her directions and got there within about 10 minutes. We were greeted as soon as we entered by customers waiting by the door and then the staff. Everyone was polite which was really welcoming as we were out of town. The decor is like an old style traditional pub and it had a really good feel about it. We initially ordered the T bone steak but they didn't have any so opted for our usual sirloin which was also recommended by the staff and we were not disappointed! Big being very big steak lovers we've been to many steakhouse's around the country and have to say this was possibly the best steak we've ever had. The garlic butter complimented it very well and we were not left disappointed that the T bone wasn't available! I highly recommend coming here if you are anywhere nearby."
