"CHECK THE OPENING TIMES AND CALL IF UNSURE!!!! If it is open, you're in for a treat!!! Proper country pub with good if expensive (the chef is a genius tho so expect that on top of his excellency). Good beers and a nice atmosphere make for a once in a lifetime pub visit. Walkability: Pretty close but no parking and a bit dicey late at night. Only in a empty country roads kinda way though Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5 Hotel highlights: Quiet"

"5 stars because that’s the maximum allowed. Small restaurant where booking is clearly essential thankfully we had but even early on an October Tuesday we’ll off the beaten track several would be diners were told house full but they could use the takeaway facility and use one of the many picnic tables across the road. Menu looks excellent but the specials board even more so, with a heavy focus on fresh fish all superbly cooked. It was no trouble to prepare a platter for three instead of the two advertised, and it came on individual plates. Choice of three desserts the two we tried were delicious. Free unlimited parking opposite"

"This is not my first time reviewing this establishment, but it may very well be my last. I have always considered Stokeley Farm Shop and Tap House to be a enjoyable spot for dining and drinking, but my recent visit following the coronation was a letdown. Despite advertising a special event for the coronation weekend, there were hardly any decorations or acknowledgment of the occasion. No one, including the staff, had dressed up, and the food (aside from the ribs) was underwhelming. The service was simply unsatisfactory. My husband had to fetch our drinks from the bar himself, and it took an almost an hour for our meals to be served - a rack of ribs and fries for him, and half a lobster for me. The ribs were tasty, but the lobster was disappointingly small and came with a lackluster salad that lacked flavor. The fries were unremarkable - I was expecting more from a chef known for their skill. We voiced our concerns about the service and were offered a free drink, which we declined. Despite not being overly busy, other diners left before us due to the lengthy wait. I have previously mentioned the need for effective management at this establishment, and that sentiment remains. While it may see a surge in tourists in the upcoming months, it is us locals who sustain these businesses once the tourists have gone."

"This charming little pub offers a fantastic view of the sea from its restaurant. I enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch with all the trimmings, including excellent cauliflower cheese and generous portions of beef and turkey. The honey-glazed carrots were delightful, and the potatoes had just the right amount of crispiness. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience. The staff were friendly, and the red wine was great as well. Definitely worth a visit for the value it provides. Food: 4, Service: 4."

"Ten of us went to this restaurant for our Christmas dinner, and I was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating they were. The chef, Gareth, took the time to put together a special menu just for me as the only vegan in the group, featuring three appetizers and three main dishes to choose from. The food was absolutely delicious! Everyone else at the table enjoyed their meals as well. I highly recommend this place to all my vegan friends, as many pubs and restaurants often struggle to provide decent vegan options. I hope this encourages them to keep expanding their vegan menu. Even non-vegans would love the food here! A big thank you for making me feel so welcome. x"
