The Wheatsheaf at Greetham is a delightful experience. We’d eaten here before and loved it so came back for more. The waitress was attentive without being over enthusiastic and Carol’s home made bread was as good as we remembered. Both our meals were delicious and the wine (we always have a bottle) was not over priced. The landlord was also attentive but never in your face. We will be going back.

Fantastic meal today. Took my mom out for early Mother's Day meal. 3 meat carveries and one vegetarian meal. All the food was fantastic, the gammon in particular was tasty and succulent. As always an exceptional variety of veg and sauces. Can't wait to go back. Was busy so would definitely recommend booking to avoid disappointment.
