As always, a wonderful lunch, accompanied with Gusbourne sparking wine from 5 miles down the road. Staff were friendly and attentive.

If I wasn’t a local, I wouldn’t return. Sadly we got completely forgotten about and neglected. No offer of dessert or hot drinks once our main had been served. Food is fine. Nothing exceptional but my expectations aren’t high. I just want rural pubs to keep going so will continue to come. I rate this pub usually and come here often but was disappointed last night.

The girls waiting on were friendly and a credit to the Woolpack The food seemed to take rather a long time before it arrived and our steaks, a medium and a rare were both a little overcooked and rather tough. A side order of flat mushroom consisted of one mushroom at £2.50. The side order of greens was perfectly adequate. The invoice arrived with the 'discretionary' tip already added on. A practice I dislike although the it could be taken off the bill on request. I doubt that I will go there again.

Booked table for 6 but some of the party cancelled at short notice. This was not a problem and the pub accommodated us. Ordered the roast beef and roast pork. Both dinners were really tasty and exceptional value. Staff were really friendly. Also, had dog with us and this was not a problem. Would highly recommend The Woolpack.

Had a birthday for my partner. Decided for a small pub. Lovely food couldn’t fault it in the slightest. Friendly staff. Worked out just over £50 a head. Very reasonable. Would recommend and will be eating again.
