"Christmas day. Now that we have all had time to reflect, I am writing to express my deep disappointment regarding the Christmas Day meal my party and I experienced at your establishment. We had high expectations, especially considering the substantial cost of £85 per person for our group of twelve. While the starters and desserts were acceptable, the carvery, which is a significant part of the meal, fell far below the standard I would have anticipated. The quality of the dishes did not justify the hefty price tag. The potatoes appeared reheated and lacked freshness, resembling leftovers from a previous week as were other vegetables. Additionally, the serving of only one pig in blanket per person was notably stingy, given the occasion and cost. The beef was tough and unappetising, and the cauliflower cheese was disappointingly watery. Moreover, our dining experience was further marred by delayed service, as we had to remind the staff regarding missing straters and desserts. To compound matters, our seating arrangement was unsuitable. Being placed adjacent to the toilets, we were subjected to a consistent odor of sewage throughout the meal, which severely affected our enjoyment of the occasion. Furthermore, the demeanor of the staff member attending to our table was notably dismal, contributing to the overall negative atmosphere. We also encountered issues with cutlery, having to request it repeatedly. Given the significance of this festive occasion and the considerable financial investment made by our group, this experience fell well below our expectations and left us deeply dissatisfied. We expected a higher level of service, quality, and ambience, especially on Christmas Day. We felt as though you were trying to get as many people in as possible and charge as much as you can for the privilege."

Unfortunately for us it wasn't the best experience. Pre-booked a table for 18:30 on a Saturday, drinks order not taken until nearer 19:15, good was order shorterly but didn't arrive until 20:45. Staff we spoke to were apologetic and helpful where they could but sadly couldn't save our evening.

The food is great, the locations are great, they take pets. The rooms are really practical for business or leisure. Parking is safe and free. This is a great British Pub. They are part of a well managed group. I travel a lot and often on a motorcycle. This is exactly, perfectly well thought through. Enjoy. Loved it.

The service was extremely slow, even though the restaurant was not busy at all (we waited 45 minutes for our main dishes). There were no children's menus available. We were not offered any sauces when our meals were served. The chicken was dry and overcooked. The only good thing about the meal was the chips. For dessert, we had the crumble, which was surprisingly watery for a crumble. We probably won't be coming back. Ver carta

We arrived early for the birthday lunch for my special neighbour. We were told not to looks at the prices as they had gone up “a few pence” We chuckled and ordered a latte and pepsi. We asked about the Halloumi sticks starter and were swiftly informed that there none available. So, we opted for the Warm rustic bread, with butter and balsamic vinegar. What arrived were slices of white and brown toasted usually an indicator of hiding stale bread (we were told it was sour dough, looked like the leftovers of a loaf). Wish I had taken a picture. There was hardly any butter, presented on a wonky board We were starving so had finished bread before meals arrived, this included me having to ask for m...

"we had read very good reviews about the green room, me and 2 friends who have not seen themselves for a few years decided to go for the afternoon. we telephoned, booked afternoon tea and paid our deposit 2 days before. when we arrived. the waiter took us on our table and said: “I’m sorry, but the system didn’t update, so they didn’t know that we wanted to go the afternoon.” that seemed very strange when they had taken the deposit from us 2 days ago! the waiter said we had to order from the normal midday menu. after we had eaten our salad! we wanted to order 3 coffees, I asked the waitress if we could order coffee, her answer was: “It’s difficult because I don’t have a pen!” I didn’t reply, there are only 3 coffees and cakes. I then asked about the bill that lasted about 15 minutes when they finally arrived, they had not taken the deposit we had previously paid, and the waitress said: "She must talk to the manager, I explained that I stayed 10 minutes on the parking lot, so she could be fast. When I asked her what happened to the bill she said, they must go into the bar and sort it with the manager. I was very annoyed by the lack of customer service, not only had they forgotten our afternoon, but had also accused the wrong crowd. he was quite arrogant and served other people and let us wait. he said he would take £11 for the mistake with the afternoon! it is a shame that eating and the environment is very beautiful. Unfortunately, the customer service makes this place so much down. it is safe to say we will never return or will not recommend it to one of our friends."
