Really nice fish and chips. Staff very friendly and the service was pretty fast for a Sunday lunch.
A really lovely 80th Birthday family lunch for my mother. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful, from the time of booking to the day of the lunch. Nothing was too much trouble. Good food and relaxed atmosphere. Would thoroughly recommend and 5+ stars to all the staff. Thank you.
We really enjoyed our meal here. They are well aware that people often eat here prior to a concert at the Cathedral, as it's so close by. The kitchen make a note of this and ensure you get served promptly. The serving team were very friendly, the menu choice was varied and the prices were fine. We would definitely eat here again as the food was very tasty and cooked to a high standard.
Really enjoyed our meal here. Service was attentive and friendly. Food absolutely lovely and reasonably priced. Ale choices a little limited but the Potholer Ale is very enjoyable. Would have no problem returning again. Thank you... 👍
The Fountain Inn bills itself as a gastro pub though surprisingly they only had one beer currently on tap [supply issues perhaps]. It was a Cheddar ale bitter. The service is good, though some might be annoyed by the waiter who was one of those that approves of all the choices made when ordering. In his case with a "lovely" or "marvelous" after each selection. We had a sea bass and an Indian curry and side salads. They were good.
