    We had a very enjoyable lunch today at the Old England Hotel with our group of friends. The setting was relaxed and our table private with a view of the garden. The service was spot on from the time we arrived. We can't thank the staff enough for their diligence and professionalism. Well done all, we'll be back again later this year to have another group luncheon here.

    We had to wait longer than expected for our food, and several other tables asked how much longer until their order arrived. One pizza was undercooked but the staff were very good about it, and gave us another fresh pizza, and that pizza order was for free (didn't pay for the undercooked or the fresh one). Once the food arrived it was very good, and it the venue has a lovely relaxed vibe. The music was in the background and the tables are set out so that it never becomes overcrowded. The cocktails and mocktails were excellent.

    A great find - very busy on a Tuesday lunchtime. An extensive menu and although we only had a main course each, it was fresh, well cooked and delicious.
