Visited here as we were keen to try some game! The latest menu has taken these options off. Lovely cod scampi to start, the Billy pie was nice. The pork belly was good but not rendered enough to my liking. Just a few elements that confused us, even though we queried it. The veg dauphinoise is not a typo and is not potato. The black pudding is not separate, but mashed in the potato (it makes the texture lumpy). Other than that, i would try and again as it’s quirky and does appear to try new things. Location is on an old grange, with the farm next door amongst various other businesses. Plenty of parking and about 10 minutes away from the city centre.
Started coming here 20 years or so and it's had peaks and less so good periods. This does your standard pub-grub and pizzas [latter looked decent on the next table!] I had coffee [£4] and then fish and chips. Food was good but the oil definitely needed changing and there was an off taste to the very very chunky chips. I'd 3 star here but the fish was OK. Decent peas and tartae though. Nice atmosphere 👌 Fires and gentle chats going on. Service was very good though! 👍 thanks. This now has farm shops and I didn't go in but this is becoming a top place to visit in that regard and I look forward to coming back.
The steak and ale pie was delicious, I wish my venison and rabbit casserole was bigger because I enjoyed it. I was still hungry after that but it came with half a kilo of white bread. The cheesecake dessert was a little bit disappointing. It's expensive but the atmosphere is cosy and calm, and the quality of the ingredients in our mains was good.
Nice pud located in the farm with great choice of beers. We had the pizza from the wood fire pizza hut outside. The flavour was nice but the pizza was undercooked. Just need to get more heat in that stone to get the pizza cooked properly on the bottom.
Lovely evening out with a bunch of colleagues. Everyone enjoyed their food. The menu had great choices and lots of options to cater for dietary and allergen needs. The food was well presented, and the flavours were great. The portions were very generous, we had to have a big break before desserts! We wandered around the farm and were able to get ourselves ready for our desserts, which did not disappoint. If you don't fancy the full works, their pizzas are great as are their snacks. Allow yourself plenty of time if you come in the day and pay a visit to the farm shop and there's a gin distillery too. The service and the team were exceptional. This is a huge plus as the place is always busy. Nothing is ever too much trouble.
