   Very beautiful Pub, set in an idyllic location on a Village Cricket Pitch. The glorious April sunshine had many sat outside, we were inside which was lovely. The Staff attention was outstanding, but sadly the wait time for our meal was very slow - One hour plus for our main course to arrive. It was very busy, though not as busy as it normally was, said a waitress - so not too happy with how long food took to come.. When it did arrive it was beautifully presented, the Roast beef, gravy and Yorkshires were delicious, sadly the roast potatoes tasted reheated. Delicious desserts, so overall a lovely experience at a beautiful establishment.

   Lovely Mother’s Day lunch! Great attentive service by very friendly staff. Despite being very busy we didn’t have to wait long for our food. Only downside, no strawberry ice cream!

   Every thing was great but I just thought that the sides were a little bit pricey

   We were soon seated at a nice table and served drinks. Upon request a cushion for my friend was quickly provided. Our starter courses of Scallops were a little small but expertly cooked and presented. Our main courses of Stone Bass was superb. The fish, particularly, was beautifully cooked and the whole dish as presented looked great. We both enjoyed it. Finishing with two nice Latte coffees we were presented with the bill upon request and found the whole meal to be good value. We have been before and this visit was well up to standard. We hope to lunch there again in the future.
