   Our second Sunday lunch here and we thought the food was better than the first time. Good service given the Inn was very busy. Unusually we both had the same two courses, the beef was very rare which was fine by me but my wife likes it a bit more well done. Veggies were excellent and it all tasted great. Service was a bit rushed but as I said it was very busy. For sweet we had the Catalan custard crème which was excellent. Also value for money was amazing. £4.95 for a medium Merlot is outstanding. Love it and will be back.

   We have eaten at the Martlet Inn quite a few times and it never disappoints. The food and service are terrific.

   We were a group of 8 and chose the Martlet from reviews however we came away a little disappointed. The staff were really friendly and apologetic and so it’s a shame we have given a lower rating. It was a pleasant ambience and the food came out reasonably promptly. The soup was lovely but the beef dinner was very disappointing. One can appreciate eclectic atmosphere but the plants around us weren’t really as healthy as you’d expect for being on display and possibly the cause for ants crawling around and lots of cobwebs. The manager was lovely and maybe it was just an off day but for us it was very disappointing as it was a birthday lunch.

   The table was for 6 and we got put in the corner of the conservatory with very limited space on the one side which felt very claustrophobic after knocking pot plants over on the windowsill just to get up to use the facilities, that’s how close to the window we were. Placed our orders, they all came out in fair time and then one was wrong so got returned and had to then wait for the food. Ok, mistakes get made, drink on the house given. It was mainly the lack of service, no checking to see if it was all alright especially after they had got the order wrong, no re-occurring drink order we had to go to the bar and order another etc. A little disappointed on the choices on the menu and seemed to be lacking service/staff. Previous to this, we have had a good meal but this was on a Sunday where Roast is a go-to.

   The Martlett has all the joys of a traditional pub, warm welcome, good service and nice atmosphere. On top of that the food was exceptional - we had steak and scallops with the trimmings - both of which were top notch. Nice to see some twists on the puddings. Definitely to be recommended if you are a foody!

   We had Sunday lunch today, always delicious, and we finished with the mini desserts that come with a hot drink. This is a lovely atmospheric pub with a lovely conservatory dining room apart from the main pub rooms. The food is good value. There is plain pub food but also some more adventurous dishes, all absolutely fresh and tasty. It's our favourite place to eat. We've never had a bad meal here.

    Delicious food, prepared with love. Both staff were lovely and our GF friend was catered for beautifully. We’ll visit again.
