A pleasant country inn with decent menu and a decent range of beers. Friendly staff. Dogs are welcome. From the front it sometimes looks closed when it's actually open, especially during late afternoons when other pubs are closed. The entrance is at the rear. In winter there's an ice skating rink.
First visit to The Windwhistle Inn, we had the Sunday carvery. There were 3 different meat choices, home made yourkshire pudding, and all the trimmings. It was really tasty and so much of it. The sticky toffee pudding sponge was light and very tasty. Plus for us it was dog friendly.
Went for breakfast, booked in advance ran out of bread,butter bacon, hash browns were going to be 10mins, no fruit or yogurt as pictured in advert,no scrambled egg,when sat down there was a black hair on fried eggs
Are any owners of this pub reading this ? because theres definitely a pattern following here that needs addressing - you have the potential of making this pub really great if you sort out your grumpy rude staff and improve the food! You have lovely views and a location, so make the most of it! ! Went for our first cooked breakfast. We booked. Not overly impressed, the member of staff behind bar was miserable as sin! Food was average, ran out of bacon but was substituted with gammon but we were ready to leave then! Would have thought coffee would have been filter (much nicer than instant). Pictures on their website show cereal and fruit!, but there wasn’t any. It was just a cooked breakfast. Won’t be returning as I can cook a better breakfast.
Second visit here. Not a very good experience this time. Service not good. No smiling staff, basic interaction with customers. Food was still brilliant. Had the carvery.
