Excellent quality Sunday roast (carvery style). Everything was cooked to perfection. The only thing I could not work out was why you are limited to two meats when there are three. Why? Surely if you want to try all three you have three smaller bits. The carver telling lots of people you can only have two is negative and creates an issue that does not need to exist. My rating would be five if you could have a small bit of each. Just my personal view but as I say, the food, service and decor is all excellent.

Food was OK. Not a great selection.
Service was slow and the prices were above average for the area.

This restaurant is excellent from the greeting when you arrive to the service you get and the wonderful food and the deserts are very good, the dusty manager Giles was very helpful from ordering the drinks to ordering the food and he gave excellent customer service, I would recommend the honeycombe sundae as the favourite desert together with the carvery Sunday roast and the size of the meals are large too on their normal menu.

Came to a funeral tea this week and the location suited a very large group of people and the buffet was very good.

We visited today following on from a recent visit during our nephews' wedding day. We had enjoyed the feast on the day and were wondering if a repeat performance was on the cards... We were not disappointed.

We arrived in good time and parked right outside in the disabled parking area, on entering we were warmly greeted and an order was taken and a table provided (number 11). We were told to wait until the coaster-like item on our table vibrated and when it did we could go up and collect our carvery, this is an awesome idea, it saves staff having to track you down to let you know.

After about five minutes the device burst into life and nearly gave me a cardiac episode as it pulsated around the table. We went to collect the carvery and the chef seemed to recall us from a few weeks ago when we had a little chat. We were given what I can only call size 11 shoe-like slices of meat (I had beef and turkey, my wife had pork and turkey), and they filled the plates. We helped ourselves to an awesome array of items including Yorkshire puds, peas, carrots, stuffing, and cabbage there was a very good selection is probably something to take away from this.

We enjoyed our bountiful feast and perused the dessert menu (this was probably our greatest mistake!!) I ordered a Smores Waffle and my wife had the roulade and oh my by the time we had finished we could feel our "food babies" ready to be birthed... We were fit to burst, honestly, if a sharp implement had got close to me I would have burst and a fountain of semi-digested carvery would have erupted!!

I would heartily recommend visiting this awesome establishment, I know my wife and I will be back, once we have fasted for a few days :)

Always a great Carvery, also the Ham egg n chips are lovely too, the 2 slices of ham are succulent thicker than anywhere else and cooked just like the doctoc ordered. Great staff too

Nice place nice staff. Food was not great. No flavour or taste to it. I was really looking forward to it. Maybe an off day hopefully. But judge yourself. I don't like doing bad reviews. But want to be honest.

It had been many years since I'd last visited this pub and to be honest had forgotten it. However when it came up on a recent search trying to find somewhere for lunch that recognises that not everyone wants a full meal in the middle of the day we decided to give it a go and were pleasantly surprised. Courtesy of sat nav we found our way to the large and well laid out car park and were greeted by a smart and well maintained entrance. The interior was equally attractive. The food was good and the service polite and prompt. We hope to visit again and would have done before now if our memories had been jogged - some signage in the area particularly if approaching from the A38 direction would certainly help.
