Located on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Newmillerdam, an area well known for its scenery, and walks around the lake, The Pledwick is an independent, family owned pub, where we put the customer at the heart of what we do.
My family and I (4 adults, 2 children) had prebooked a Christmas meal, and I can only wonder ... what went wrong? The meal took around an hour from our booking slot, which is a long time in itself, but with 2 small children, it was horrific. I just don't understand how they were unable to provide pre booked food in under 30 minutes. Its not as if they were queuing out of the door, either. There was absolutely nothing Christmassy about the table, for example, no crackers or trimmings or table decorations. The food, especially for the £85/head we paid, was nowhere near what was expected at that price point ... had it been £25/head, it would have been acceptable. We asked for some bread, a fairly common request one would imagine in any restaurant ... we got told that our dishes didn't come with bread. Okay, but if someone asks for bread, surely you give them bread as a side?? We eventually left, taking our desserts home (where one was served in a glass - on its side ... risk of accident aside, the dessert obviously didn't survive the drive home). We are REALLY disappointed. Everyone we told said that they had a great experience there but sadly, and at great expense, we discovered otherwise.
We had a fantastic evening, the food and service was exceptional, everything was beyond perfect, we'll most definitely be back. We all (3 of us) went for the tapas, it came quickly and every single dish was 10/10 fabulous.
Really nice burger and hanging chicken kebab! Thanks. We decided to pop along and give it a try after the amazing fireworks from a few weeks ago. Glad we did.
Great pub, not too big so has a really great atmosphere. We went mid-week so we one of about 3 tables. The food came promptly and everyones meals were fantastic. I had the cajun spiced chicken burger - gorgeous! My friends ordered kebabs and thai curry, all really good.
Me and my family visited this pub the other week and it was my first time but it won't be the last, excellent food, top service from the lads who were on, quite possibly the best sticky toffee pudding I've ever had!! (Ever...)
