    Hardly a gastro pub. Plastic menus with a limited selection of Indian food and a few English dishes. Experience spoiled by some noisy feral kids running around and shouting.

    Overall a lovely place to eat and drink. Spoiled tonight by being seated in a very noisy part of the restaurant. We asked to be moved and that was done so not all bad.

    Have visited The Poachers many times as the food is good and it was the first time there was no DJ and they just had some background music which was really good as it allowed you to speak to the rest of the group. The downside to this visit was the extremely slow service - as we had kids with us, we asked for their food to be brought first and it came last after asking a number of times, also it was only after the third time we asked for water that it was brought to the table.
    The Poachers Gastro PubResponded on 6 November 2024
    Thank you for your review Heena. We appreciate you were disappointed for not having the DJ on the day you visited us however we never have a DJ on week days but only on Friday and Saturday (and we always advertise it on Social Media). We apologize for the slow service and lack of attention towards your table. We hope you will give us a second chance.
