I understand they possibly have new owners now who have been a breath of fresh air for the venue. Booking advised. Visited for Sunday lunch with a friend and a dog. It was clean, warm and welcoming. Sloping ramps available at the entrance. The car park is sloped but level on street parking is available. We had a mixture of food from the specials board and off the main menu. The food was really nice and reasonably priced. Came in good time. Very dog friendly. Staff were caring but not bothersome. The menu was lovely with other options we will be tempted by. They were also advertising specials nights such as steak night and quiz night that also looked appealing.
Quiz night...... Well me n the better half went last night, we came last, to have been expected. Had a great time, lovely atmosphere and kind soul's. Definitely worth going if your in to a pub quiz and a few beers. Had a giggle.
Hooray we have our local back at last. Just enjoyed a lovely turkey Sunday lunch. Succulent meat and plenty of it together with an array of well cooked vegetables. Delicious fruit crumble and custard and a good choice of desserts. Pleasant background music and Jordan who has worked at the New Inn over several years was back to serve us attentively. It felt like old times when Luke was in charge. A lot of the local drinkers were there and made a nice buzz and am atmosphere. It’s all down to the villagers now to come back and give it a try. You won’t be disappointed. Elaine Blackshaw
Could do with a bit of an update inside, furniture feels very dated and stops it feeling like a cosy local. Staff are always friendly, food is hit and miss, had some nice meals and some very average meals. New management again so will continue to give it a try.
Went last night for a Christmas meal with friends making a party of 8. We had preordered one, two or 3 course meals from the traditional Turkey to the Butternut Squash vegetarian option. The food was excellent, speaking personally the pate was full of flavour, great match for the accompanying chutney. It was so good to find a reasonably priced Christmas menu served with plenty of proper (not reformed) Turkey which was delicious. This with the accompanying for me perfectly cooked veg and potatoes was a real treat to eat and there was plenty of it!! The trio of desserts were also a great finish to the meal. Finally the welcome was warm, waiting times between courses worked well to let us all catch up, we didn’t feel rushed. Speaking as a local who has been a regular at the New Inn over many years, it was great to see very good food and service back. It’s been a difficult few months since the last excellent long term landlord and his staff left. Hopefully it’s turned a corner, back to being a great local.🤞
