   The pub is lovely, food lovely & staff all super engaging, unfortunately the owner/manager, wife, decided to come into the dining room & hold a very private & delegate telephone conversation with one of the staff. Without going into details - This was a conversation that should have been done privately not in the same room as us. Her true colours came through! Shame, it’s a great pub, food lovely, but we promptly left as it made us feel uncomfortable

   Service excellent. Food and drinks all very good. Would have been even nicer if the fire was roaring but it was burning low.

   Really good food in a lovely cosy and historic venue, will definitely be visiting again. I had haggis, I’ve been to Scotland many times and eaten it there but this one is definitely better. My wife had steak and ale pie which was the best, meatiest pie she’d ever had.

   Amazing food. Had the homemade wild garlic chicken Kiev and beef chilli. I was blown away by the Kiev. It's my fave comfort food but this was next level incredible. Beautifully cooked. Fresh ingredients, lovely salads, mango aolio yum yum. Brilliant staff so friendly with my 3yrd son. Cheers team.

   Good first impression, as decorated for Christmas. Service was good, as was the menu. We had an enjoyable night.

   Excellent food and plenty of it! Delicious, ample portions. I can thoroughly recommend the traditional Christmas menu. The Fountain Inn was very welcoming and festive, beautifully decorated. Staff were very attentive and accommodating. Will definitely be returning in the future.

    What a fabulous Sunday Roast my family and I had this afternoon. The food was delicious, the atmosphere cosy and festive and the hosts couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcomed. All the tables were full and it was busy, but the team were professional and ran service with a smile on their face.
