"Absolutely dreadful, the customer service by the young lady behind the bar who also took our order was non existent and very rude. What went wrong: argumentative bar lady arguing that the ham, eggs and chips was just 1 egg when the menu said 2 getting the eggs cooked incorrectly (one was meant to be well cooked) and taking 5 minutes to decide if it could be taken back to the kitchen to see the frying pan for a minute more eventually agreed to 2 eggs each and these came out piecemeal, meanwhile the food on the plates was getting cold a side of onion rings and one of salad did not arrive. When I asked about this she went to the kitchen to check. She came back and said as she had not put that part of our order through to the kitchen, the chef refused to cook it now! I asked then if I put a new order in for them now, will the chef cook them. I was initially told no, as they were not on the original order they would not be cooked now! They eventually relented and onion rings arrived about 15 minutes after the first main my friend ordered half a pint of beer, a full pint arrived. The lady acknowledged it was her mistake (she did use the words it 's my mistake an awful lot yesterday), but we were still charged for the pint. What went right: Nothing The rudeness of the lady at the bar, and the attitude of whoever is in the kitchen is appalling. I am all for saving local pubs, but this one really needs a shake up."

"Firstly, I 'll say that the restaurant area was lovely if a little cold (it was a very cold day! . Likewise, staff were all friendly. They couldn 't offer tea or coffee due to the pipes having frozen but could offer hot chocolate, so no big deal. The reason I 'm giving this two stars when it could easily be four or five is simple: I was made to feel like my custom didn 't matter. My daughter had the kids breakfast, my wife had the eggs royale and I had the main breakfast. I don 't like beans or eggs, never have and never will! I asked if, as I was wasn 't having beans or eggs, whether I could have an extra rasher of bacon. I was told that they could add any additional meat, but they could add on more toast or hash browns. Fair enough. I asked for a hash brown instead, and the waitress said 'do you want two? ' Yes please. Two minutes later, the waitress came back and told me that the person in the kitchen (I assume either the chef or the owner said that I could only have one harsh brown, and would I like to pay for the other one?! I declined paying for one as politely as I could muster. Honestly, it isn 't the hash brown itself, it 's the principle here. I was made to feel like my custom didn 't matter. An extra hash brown would have cost next to nothing certainly not more than the eggs and baked beans I 'd omitted. It 's such a simple thing, but coming back to the table to tell me I could only have one felt demeaning quite frankly, especially as the waitress herself had suggested it! The breakfast was nice but the flippant treatment ruined the vibes for me. Customer care matters!"
