Today didn't go quite as planned! A friend spent 5 hours on her back in agony awaiting the ambulance to arrive! Faye the manager went above and beyond and stayed late till the crew arrived and was very attentive, kind and caring! We can't thank you enough Faye and your staff, you looked after us and our friend so well! We will be back soon! A massive thank you once again! One of the most professional managers I've seen anywhere in a long time, but also a genuinely caring person! Thank you.
Popped in for a working lunch. It was as good as an Ember Inns pub gets. Lots of stuff to choose from the menu. Staff are obviously working very hard as they appeared to be short-staffed. Ordered the scampi and chips, nothing spectacular, just as expected. Parking is available for guests, just remember to enter your reg otherwise you will be ticketed.
Typical British pub with great ambience. We came early and had a Sunday Roast. Good value for money and friendly service!
My husband and I ate here on Friday 26 January 2024. The food tasted good and arrived at our table nice and hot which was great so, compliments to Dean and Faye for a lovely meal. Debbie and Lucy were on the bar and were both lovely, very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely, relaxed evening. Many Thanks. Best Wishes. Maz & Baz
Only downside is the bar staff weren’t very attentive. We were stood by the bar waiting to be served while a member of staff was sat down right behind us which doesn’t give a good first impression. Our experience was quickly turned around by a helpful and friendly waiter (didn’t catch his name sorry) who brought our food out. We found the food to be very reasonably priced and of a much higher quality than I was expecting. Good taste and generous portion sizes. I think we were slightly overcharged but it was still only £32 for 2 mains and a pudding which I found very reasonable once we tasted the food. Overall a good experience which exceeded expectations, thank you!
