Excellent lunch. We had beef lasagna and ploughman's. Lasagna was delicious, piping hot and not oily. Ploughman's had ham, pork pie and cheese and delicious warm bread. Couldn't fault either dish
Had an amazing Christmas party here. Food was OK. But service and entertainment was fabulous. Alison & Sophia (not sure how to spell or if I got the names right) where looking after our table and deserve recognition as there where just brilliant. But all the staff were amazing and really friendly. Thank you for making our night special
We booked this venue for our Bowls Festive Lunch, 15 of us.The Staff were ready for us, extremely attentive & accommodating. The food very tasty with large portions (especially the roast turkey) and the dining room, beautifully decorated & perfect for larger parties. A good start to Christmas. Cannot fault, will definitely come again.
We stumbled across this gem on the way back from a random day out in Stratford Upon Avon and a stay at Warwick. We was trying to find somewhere that could fit us in at 3pm for Sunday roast. They managed to get us a table, so we headed over. They seated us fairly quickly and brought us the menus, then took around 20-25 minutes to come and take our drinks order but we were ready to order our mains by then. Our fault really, cause we was already hungry and we know we was after a roast, so could have ordered straight away, when being seated. They had a large group in (a table of approx 12), plus a table of 6, so could have been some of the delay, loads of people outside, as an unusually warm day for October and sport was on. The waitresses were all lovely and very caring, only scored down, cause I had to chase my olives and the wait of the food order. The size of my olive portion was extremely small, they came out in the little white sauce pot container, there was 2 garlic cloves, a piece of dried tomato and approx 8 olives, I was expecting something the size a ramekin dish and approx double that for nearly £3, however, they were very tasty. Omg the food was AMAZING!!! Best roast I've had in ages! We both had the beef and wasn't disappointed, we ordered a side of cauliflower cheese, which was also cooked perfectly! Everything was delicious, my 1 criticism is the long steam broccoli, should have been cut a little smaller, as a little tough towards the ends but I wouldn't eat that anyway, i just accidentally ate too far down, as was enjoying my food so much lol and maybe a pot of Gravy for the table, as I like a bit for my Yorkshire but I don't want it to be soggy, so needs to be poured on and eaten lol. That's a personal preference of course. Also the roast is so reasonably priced and a lot for your money! A wonderful meal and a place I would 100% recommend, I would definitely visit again, if I was in the area.
Absolutely amazing three meat roast!! Lots of lovely roasties, plenty of gravy and a really good Yorkshire pud. Great people who can’t do enough for you
