    Lovely place for lunch - great menu choice, with generous portions and extremely tasty food, helpful staff. Was quiet on our visit but that was fine as we could talk easily. Will definitely go back.

    Lovely country pub, with extremely well presented and delicious food. We all had Sunday roasts and couldn't manage to finish as they portions were so generous. The owner Colin introduced himself and the staff could not have been more attentive. We have now booked for Christmas we were that impressed!

    Servers not listening to diners, getting drink orders wrong. Bringing shared starter (pardon peppers) to the table same time as main meals! Asking diners if they would like more drinks but walking away before everyone had placed their order. However bill bought to table very quickly!!

    Our brunch celebration was almost outstanding. We were made very welcome and shown to an appropriate table. The service was excellent, with the server being attentive and responding to our requests. My meal of poached eggs & avocado was just right and my fellow diners were complimentary of the English breakfast. The only disappointment was the 'selection of cakes and pastries'. My grandaughter, who was celebrating her 19th birthday, ordered this, but the pastries were put on a plate with no offer of a choice of which ones she would llike, they were very small, and not soft. When my grandaughter requested cake, she was handed a tiny brownie. Again no choice of cake. I think that we had expected a plate with a selection of pastries and cakes, and certainly not ones so small. This is the only part of the meal that let the Blue Ball down, and spoilt my grandaughter's birthday brunch. I should add that the coffee is excellent.
