The Lamb Inn is a charming, thatched country pub partly dating from the 15th century. It's family run and is at the heart of a thriving local community, even the village post office and community shop is housed in its out buildings.
Traditional home cooked food is served with Sunday lunches being particularly popular, and real ale fans will be pleased to know that the Lamb is Cask Marque accredited. There's a large, well kept beer garden where you can enjoy a game of petanque, along with a sheltered and heated outside seating area. Quiz night happens on the last Sunday of every month at 8.30pm and any size of teams are welcome to play. The Lamb is also home to 4 skittles league teams. Jo and Paul extend a warm welcome to you.
My assessment may seem a little unfair as this was during Scarecrow Festival hunt so was a very busy time for the pub which I do understand. A special scarecrow menu was provided which I thought was ideal, quite restrictive menu so the kitchen could cope. The ploughman's lunch was very good value but I do have to document my disappointment in the chicken and mushroom pie with chips for £15, it could have been served with some sort of vegetables, salad or garnish as it was very small, bland and not worth £15, sorry.
We booked for Sunday lunch to meet a friend at our half way point. Having popped in effort during the Scarecrow trail, we knew it would be nice based on first impressions and the homely atmosphere. Sadly our first choice of roast (pork) wasn't available at the time we had booked. The beef was great though. One meal (chicken) was also not a roast dinner as initially described as it came with chips rather than roast veg. But, it was a pleasant meal overall so no worries.
I booked dinner here for my mums birthday in February. Everything was amazing. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful. The food (home made pie! - amazing!) and beer were great. We live in London and most pubs have pretty much the same menu and we cant remember the last time we found one that actually made their own food. The difference is staggering. If anybody is taking this for granted, please don't! We would desparately love to have a local pub like this. Please love and cherish it for us until we can return. Thank you.
Once again Frank the chef excelled. This is not your classic pub grub, it's country gourmet. Sea bream, French beans and Dauphinoise potatoes perfection. And the cappuccino mousse is as good as its entertaining. Put it on your must try list.!
Just finished the best sea bass that I have ever had in a pub. The food here is exceptional. Served on bashed potatoes with perfect cabbage and fragrant parsley cream sauce. Magic. Come here and try it!
