   One of our favourite pubs - we always have delicious and interesting food and friendly efficient service. This was a visit on Steak Night for my husband’s birthday. All four of us had a delicious steak cooked perfectly as requested, really crispy chips and great onion rings. Simple food superbly done . The staff were fun, friendly and charming and remembered to wish him happy birthday! Highly recommended.

   Good food and reasonable prices. The service was generally good, but lacked the friendly interaction. Unfortunately, the restaurant was quite warm for us and my chunky chips were slightly underdone, hence the 4stars. Will definitely go back when next in the area, as the food was good.

   Excellent pub restaurant. Good food with well cooked local ingredients. Good service, great setting and environment. Didn’t try the drinks but suspect they are good too. Highly recommended. Don’t book through the awful open table website though!

   Pleasant outside table in the sunshine. Friendly service and delicious food. The Woolpack has always been one of our favourite pubs, and today’s lunch didn’t disappoint.

   Absolutely lovely staff and food excellent especially the lamb dish. The sausage dish could do with being a bit bigger but otherwise could not fault anything. The garlic bread starter has to be tried - just amazing.

    Slow service caused us to not get our pudding & we were askedd to leave for the next table. Booked for Mother's day. Was going to have 3 courses for 5 people. 40 min in & starter arrives. We were happy so no problem. Main course arrives. No problem. We had children so may not have been the quickest. We ordered pudding. Then we get told we had to eat it outside. At no point did we get told there was a window or had to vacate the table. We had no control over the service or how quick the kitchen was. Clearing tables was not the quickest & there was a big gap between starters & main. Evidently the window to have a table was too small for allowing the staff to fulfil there job to give tables time to eat. Why offer 3 courses if it is not possible to get the food to us in time? When we complained the response was they have a lot of tables. My retort was that we don't control the food coming out, how long it takes to clear tables or how long each table has. No apology which infuriated all of us. Happy Mother's Day!
