“STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS” Absolute joke this place. We went for the so called 10oz sirloin 😂 only to be served up with a 4oz (at best) wafer thin beef frying steak smothered in some kind of a watery sauce,apparently peppercorn and red wine. We was the only people in the pub from the moment we got there to the moment we left and the reason for this now is clear. The place was absolutely freezing cold. We never took our coats off once even to eat our meal. We had our 20 month old baby with us and couldn’t wait to get out of there to get him into our warm car. iv been to many a pub/ restaurant,I know what’s good and what’s not and in the 52 years of me being alive iv got to say this pub is definitely the worst Iv ever been to and had the displeasure of eating in. The beer which was apparently staropravan was flat and tasted more like a bad pint of carling. This place was the biggest disappointment Iv had in a very long time. I actually felt robbed when we left. Trust me when I say. “Stay away at all costs”.
Lovely food, (I had a cracking steak, lashings of peppercorn sauce and delicious hand cut chips) and great service. Room temp was a bit too low, but it was -2° outside after all! Give this lovely family-run pub a go, if you prefer good food to room decor, you won't be disappointed.
The staff was lovely, the food was excellent, and great portion size and at a very good price. Unfortunately when we visited the draught beers weren't working. The place is desperately in need of renovation but don't be put off by that. I would visit again.
The food and service was excellent, only thing I would suggest for improvement is the interior is very dated and there were a few cleaning issues that need attention, doors to toilets, carpets etc, I think these things would make the place so much better because the food is amazing and very reasonably priced.
What can i say the food was excellent with plenty of it, cooked to perfection. Hats off to the chef they did a sterling job. However, when i visited there wasn't a great choice of beers on draught. I was only able to pick a pint of lager because that's all they had, poor really for a public house. You had to order your drink at the table rather that at the bar , which i thought was rather strange.If they stocked a few more beers then they could tap into the late evening drinks market which is thriving in Repton but perhaps they don't want too. By 9pm the pub was like a ghost town. Everyone who had been eating had moved on to other drinking establishments or had gone home due to the poor atmosphere. The decor was also a bit tired and slightly drab.If they redecorated the interior of the inn and offered a few more draught beers, i'm sure this place would go from strength to strength. That said the food made up for the negative points i have outlined. I would have no problem recommending this establishment if you wanted to sit down and have a good meal, you won't regret it. Give it a try and see what you think? Make sure you book in advance because if you just turn up your likely to be turned away. Sadly that happened to some poor chap who strolled in and took pot luck.
