    I’ve been to the Stables many times and while expensive, it has always been nice until now. We went with some friends for my birthday celebration. We ordered 4 meals. 2 came out within 10 minutes of ordering and the other 2 took an addition 35 minutes to come out. So half of our party was done eating before the other half was even served. No one seemed to know what was going on when we could flag down a server even though the restaurant was empty. There was no apology and no discount for this terrible experience. We will never be spending money there again. Absolutely awful service and no care for customers.

    Nice evening at Stables. Still I find it pricey for what it is, but the staff make up for it. Food good.

    Lovely Sunday roast. The host, gentleman did not get his name, was very good. Apologised for the delay in serving mains as they were just serving for the wedding in the barn. I can honestly say we had not noticed a delay at all. Was a very relaxed enjoyable lunch.

    We went to The Stables for Valentines Day. It was a 6 course set meal for £65 which on paper looked promising, but sadly in the flesh was very underwhelming and was certainly not worth the money. We had a table facing a wall (so not overly atmospheric), service was fine but unfortunately that was the only redeeming feature.

    Overall we enjoyed our meal, nothing really wrong with it. But the menu and pricing made us expect something special and out of the ordinary. Sadly the cost did not equate to the experience we expected. As an example one of us opted for the burger, it was enjoyed (but perhaps not more than bought elsewhere for more like half the price), £21 for a burger really seems excessive. Staff were very good, although a steak was ordered and no steak knife was offered or given. A nice setting, with a lot of potential, but not quite hitting the spot, so can’t see us returning.

    Excellent service. Lovely high quality food. The menu could be a little larger / a bit more choice.
