    I chose to take my family here for a "catch up" meal (we live in France now) because it's a place I used to visit with friends when I was in my early twenties. The place didn't disappoint, it still has the same rustic charm, warm welcome and excellent food. My son and his wife are already planning to make regular visits, especially in the summer.

    Food would have been nice, although was lukewarm when served. The Sunday dinners were missing the advertised carrots, creamed leeks and cabbage. Kids sausage and mash was missing gravy. I did ask for gravy which was brought. Unfortunately only one server who did not come to ask if everything was ok. Shame as could have been easily rectified.

    Came here following a recommendation and was disappointed. The chicken skewer starter was advertised as coming with a red cabbage slaw. It came with a plate full of raw red onions with no dressing. The server stated they were not sure about the new menu but would fix it. It was brought back about 10 minutes later with a bit of vinegar on. When the server was informed it was not going to be eaten then simply said sorry and walked off. The 3 meat roast dinner was not much better. The pork was more fat than meat. The Yorkshire puddings were soggy and the parsnips were barely cooked and still rock hard. Waiting staff showed no interest when pointed out to them. Very disappointing as the venue is lovely. Bar staff efficient and friendly. Food and servers need improvement. Will be unlikely to recommend or return.
