"We booked and attended during COVID times so please bear that in mind when reading. The wifi didn 't work and there was nothing to say that they knew of the problem, so spent ages (add did many others because mobile reception is poor in the area) trying to log in to order food and check in with the COVID app before asking and finding it would just say 'connecting please wait '. We ordered and then waited 90 minutes for the food. Shortly after ordering a burger we were told that they had run out of all burgers. A short time later another table had the same response but then were told that they had one left. The food was OK but certainly not up to the prices quoted. The soup was luke warm and in desperate need of seasoning. Mac and cheese tasted like it had come from a tin. It possibly hadn 't but that was the impression. The pork curry tasted like pork in blitzed tinned tomatoes with some onion and pepper to give some spice. Again, needed seasoning. Just nothing special. They did provide (unrequested) some free bread and dipping oils whilst we were waiting. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant. The Deverill beer, a local ale was excellent and tasted well conditioned. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant. The pub was scrupulously clean with good COVID compliance. We would go back to give them a second chance these are difficult times especially for the hospitality trade."

"We often come here for Sunday carvery which is very good so thought we would try an evening meal for my Mum's birthday. I am afraid the overall service let down the whole experience. When we arrived, instead of being taken to our table by the waitress, she just pointed and said you are at that table over there. After being to a busy bar area to get our drinks we found out that the 2 waitress standing around did not take orders so we had to go back to the busy bar again and wait to give our food orders. When the food came it was very good, especially my seafood platter. Everyone thought the food was good except for my Mum who had gone for one of the specials. It was so poor especially for being a special. She had one tiny piece of fish with no sauce, 4-5 very small new potato's, a few carrots and a few bits of broccoli. All the veg was hard and there was not enough to satisfy even a person with the smallest appetite. We told the waitress about the hard veg but she just said oh right and there was no apology. When we spoke to the chap at the bar and said why don't the waitress take the orders he said he liked people to come to the bar so the staff could meet them. We all felt this was a lame reason and probably did not trust the teenage waitresses to take the orders. It is a real shame as the place is lovely and the food generally is pretty good but is missing a professional touch. We said we would not return for an evening meal but just stick to the Sunday Carvery."

"The restaurant had probably 5 occupied tables yet our drinks were forgotten, we waited 20mins to be asked if we wanted dessert in the end we asked twice more for dessert menu. When we couldn’t decide on a wine and asked ‘which one would you recommenced?’ We were told by waitress ‘I don’t know I don’t drink wine?’ Asked waiter/Barman ‘where are the toilets?’ to be told ‘I don’t know’ and he walked away, no attempt to ask someone else or help us look. When we ordered we asked for extra toppings as per menu option only for a more senior member of staff to come to the table and question if we really meant to add the extras. We made to feel a stupid asking for Brie on top of a steak. It wasn’t a ‘special’ request it was an option on the menu. Food was mixed, 2 out of 4 of us really enjoyed our food. Personally my chicken was really dry and the bun was burnt. One of meals came out wrong (new potatoes rather than mash) although this was rectified quickly. I personally wouldn’t return and I wouldn’t recommend. We were served by 3 members of staff and each as poor as the rest so the excuse ‘oh he is on a trial’ didn’t really excuse the poor service when we mentioned it. Can’t blame it being busy as there was 4 staff and about 20 people using pub and restaurant combined. Can’t blame one member of staff having an off night as we was served by 3 staff members."
