The Old Talbot - Carta

Staff were all lovely and friendly, helpful and efficient, nothing was too much trouble, food was excellent, first time visiting and we will be going back very soon

Went for a carvery and family meal , polite staff and great with dealing with allergies Only downside with carvery was lack of veg like peas broccoli green beans etc but other than that food was amazing

We went there tonight as a last minute idea. What a great decision. The food was excellent and the staff were amazing. The atmosphere was just right. They even gave my 6 year old grandson a free desert as they heard us praising him for doing so well at school. Highly recommend this restaurant. Ver carta

My father goes here often but this is my first trip. Not usually a fan of carvery as I’ve never found a decent one. This place changed that. The beef was still pink and tasty the potatoes fresh and the veg still had shape. Staff are very friendly and cheerful whilst still being professional. The prices are reasonable and the decore clean and stylish. Parking is plentiful, I would recommend booking if visiting on a weekend. They have rooms too and I’m guessing they are to the same standard as the bar/restaurant. All in all a lovely meal reasonably priced.

Stayed for one night while working near by in Milton Keynes. Room was immaculate, well prepared and well presented. Food was lovely and the steak and mushroom pie I had was awesome! Friendly staff and a good location if working in MK. Only negative was no breakfast in the week before 11:00am which is no use at all if on business. That said I get it, with just 5 or 6 rooms its maybe not worth to turn on the ovens and pay a chef! Instead the rack rate reflects a room only rate which is fine given there are other places to grab a breakfast should it really be needed.

This is one of my local pubs and overall it is attractive and comfortable, with good food. However, I’m writing this because recent visits have been spoiled by the rude, arrigant and unfriendly attitude of the man I think may be the manager ? tall, dark and bald. I don’t know if he hates women, because he was really different when I went with my male friend. If I go on my own, however, or, as yesterday, with a female friend, he is abrupt and unsmiling. My friend had never been before and she was really affronted. It was embarrassing! I have got to the point where it is starting to put me off going. It’s a shame because the other staff and everything else is lovely but his attitude makes me f... Ver carta

We were 2 couples, and we stayed in the recently refurbished block of bedrooms. The rooms were great, reasonable size, all en-suite with plenty of store space...... all decorated with a light and modern decor. We also had dinner both evenings, the food was reasonable (good variety, of pub standard quality . However the big let-down was the lack of any breakfast. There was only a very basic 'pre-packed breakfast ' with few, if any options. It seems ridiculous that the owners cannot hire someone for 2-3 hours to lay on some sort of buffet breakfast (this doesn 't have to be cooked, as many people would be happy with continental 'cold ' options (fresh fruits, cereals, breads and set up tea and...

I stayed here solo for two nights whilst attending a conference in the area. The rooms are brand new, only having opened in July and are immaculate. Fab modern decor and extremely clean. Has large ensuite bathroom with roomy shower. Added little extras too such as shower gel and hair wash. Plenty of soft fluffy towels. Super comfy double bed with clean cosy linen and lots of comfy pillows. Fan and/or heating in room. Large TV with all the usual channels. Free WiFi which was super fast for browsing. Restaurant was outstanding. I was offered breakfast which started service from 8am (although this was provided by my conference so I didn't get the chance to try). I did however indulge in dinner...

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 notabl... Ver carta
