   We enjoyed our family meal together - a huge plateful, which represented good value for money. Parking is always fraught though

   Loved to discover this gem close to our home. Food was delicious. We’ve had burgers, ragu and haddock. We were especially impressed with pulled pork rolls with kimchi. Friendly staff who is attentive and non intrusive. They serve Hawkstone beer and cider which I wanted to try - did not disappoint. Tastes the best in Hawkstone proper glass! The view from the garden is amazing. Can’t wait to get back for a cheeky pint in the garden on a warm spring day.

   First of all, my food was fine. Nothing special, but okay. My wife's however was not great. The chicken was dry and the whole dish over salted. Her dessert was covered in nutmeg which, given it was a custard tart, was too much. This however, was not our main issue. We arrived promptly for our table but were asked to just go and find it. We then waited for 20 minutes just for the menus. I had to go and ask for them. Once we had ordered, we waited over an hour for our food. I was at the point of paying our drinks bill and leaving, but it was my wife's birthday (a fact they knew) and I didn't want to have to resort to fish and chip from the local takeout. They did apologise for the delay when they finally brought it, but given that my wife's food was not great, it didn't made up for it. This was a Monday night, and the place was busy and noisy. I can only assume they were short staffed, but that doesn't make it okay.

   We went for the Sunday lunch to celebrate my friend's 80th birthday. The meal was quite tasty, although the lamb and Yorkshire puddings were a little over done, the parsnip was underdone, and it would have been nice to have some crackling on the pork as well as a couple more potatoes. The chicken was perfect. The coffee was outstanding and the sticky toffee pudding and ice cream were unctuous and ample (although it would have been nice to have a little more butterscotch sauce). I would have given a bigger tip if they could have arranged a birthday candle or some token to make my friend's birthday a little bit special as I had noted it down on the reservation in advance.

   Haven’t visited the pub for food in a while. Food was spot on and delicious. Unfortunately, service was poor and waited quite a while for our table to be cleared, have our orders taken and provide us with the bill
