We enjoyed an evening meal. The food was freshly made (hubby always knows if a burger is freshly made when they can accommodate his request for medium rare!) My Satay chicken burger was the best I've ever had. When we left my husband forgot to pick up his mobile phone which also had all his bank cards ..we only noticed some hours later and called the pub...they had found it and put it in their safe.. so obviously we were also very grateful for their vigilance. We will definitely return to sample their menu choices.
Had lunch in my birthday a Monday. Very quiet a little cold(the building), lovely staff, The quality of the food is much better than other ordinary pubs. I even got a candle with my dessert. The design of the place is a mix of modern and old. Really liked the atmosphere. Will definetly come again.
We recently celebrated our wedding breakfast and reception at the Railway Inn, and it exceeded all our expectations. We can’t thank Alice and the team enough, our day was nothing short of perfect. The staff, with their friendly and accommodating approach, made us feel right at home. They seamlessly managed every aspect of our event, from setting up the venue to ensuring a smooth flow throughout the evening. This included managing our suppliers like the florist, Photo Booth and band for evening entertainment. Now, let's talk about the food - an absolute highlight! Unlike with normal wedding venues, our guests could choose what they wanted from a small menu which we created alongside the chef. Our guests are still raving about the delicious food now! The evening food was also a hit, but we were too full from dinner and busy socialising to eat any ourselves. If you're considering the Railway Inn for your wedding venue, rest assured, you're in capable hands with Alice. We are immensely grateful for the incredible experience that will forever be etched in our hearts. Thank you, the Railway Inn, for making our wedding day truly magical.
Lovely pub with a nice friendly atmosphere. We booked easily online and had a lovely table ready for us when we arrived. The staff were welcoming and prompt with service. The menu wasn't too busy and had a good varied selection. The kids menu was basic with all the normal favs for kids so they were happy. The food was delicious and we cleared our plates and it was enough. The kids ice cream was on the small side and they finished it with one spoonful. A lovely meal and we'll definitely be back!
We had a lovely Sunday Roast here celebrating Mothering Sunday. Plenty of staff on to deal with the busy day which certainly helped to keep it running smoothly and the wait times down! The food was delicious, we all had the Roast Beef and each and everyone one of ours was cooked to perfection! My only slight negative was the chocolate brownie wasn’t as Chocolate-y as I was expecting, more cake consistency then gooey brownie but that’s probably me just being an over-critical brownie connoisseur! It was still delicious and we all left with plates wipes clean! We will certainly be back that’s for sure!
