"Visited with friends and was off to a bad start immediately. We had to request water for the table 4 times before it arrived. Service was very slow. Starters arrived and I enjoyed it, when mains arrived my carbonara had curdled, I tried to eat it but when mixing it up it there was so much oil under the pasta it made it very sickly. Another meal was inedible and returned with no offer of a replacement or alternative. Despite there being 90% of my food left they did not ask if everything was ok. When the bill arrived they had no removed the main that was returned and not eaten. When questioned the staff member was very rude. A manager came over as didn’t want to remove the service charge but then agreed to remove both mains that were not eaten. What annoyed me is the manager tried to say the rude staff member did not know as he was Ukrainian, then tried to guilt us into not removing the service charge by saying he was a University Professor and it is very sad….that has nothing to do with the quality of the food and his on point attitude that was clearly no language barrier. We will never return."

"my friends and I visited the fox, menston on Sunday to celebrate a special birthday and I could not have been happier with all the experience. the team was very accommodating and allowed us to arrive early to decorate the table and put us before we were due, the drinks were nice and the eating was absolutely delicious. our appetizers came out immediately and looked nice, the main courses were good the money worth, I could not believe the amount of food we received and the dessert was perfect. we were served by the meal of laura, which was absolutely beautiful, she was friendly, patient and in the giggles that was brilliant, she made the experience that was much more special. many thanks to the whole team, but especially to laura, to make the day so unforgettable."

"We have been to the restaurant several times since 2022. Last time we celebrated my nephew’ s birthday on Friday in the evening. There were a lot of people. We were waiting for our order for a long time . The food was fine but the drinks were tasteless. There was too much ice."

"The area and the pub are absolutely beautiful, and when we arrived the staff were great. The room was very nice but you could hear every conversation from the bar below as if the person was in our room with us! So not as peaceful as advertised! Whilst my food was alright- not as nice as i expected-several other diners walked out because service was appalling. And on waking this morning, we had no electricity or water in our room! When I went to find help there were NO staff to be found, I walked around the whole pub- kitchen included. Even rang the number on the website (no answer) Eventually found 1 agency staff who had only started the day before so didn't have a clue what was going on either! Would not recommend."

"I made a reservation at a new Mexican restaurant to celebrate Mother's Day with my wife and son. I called ahead to let them know we would be running late and the person on the phone was kind and understanding. When we arrived, the waitress was friendly and even made a special effort to accommodate our 7-year-old son. The bartender and other waitresses were also attentive and friendly. Our food arrived promptly and was absolutely delicious, with generous portions. I ordered the chicken burrito with roasted beans and my wife had the fajitas. Overall, we all had a great experience and I highly recommend this restaurant. Just a heads up - the smell of the food can linger on your clothes, so it's best to leave your coat in the car."

"The fish pie and steak pie was delicious. The girl taking our drink orders was absolutely terrible. I asked for a Tanqueray and slimline tonic and she looked at me as if I had two heads! I eventually just asked her for a Bombay and slimline but she brought a regular tonic. My husband ordered a pint of diet Pepsi and she brought a small bottle of regular Pepsi! There was a young man who came over a few times to check on us and brought our food...he was much better as he brought us refills of correct drinks ordered."

"Was excited to visit for the first time after seeing the award wins for best Mexican in the local news. Looking online the menu looked good so made a booking for 17:30 on a Thursday. On arrival we were seated quickly. The ambiance in the venue is very nice, with real lit candles on each table and twinkly lights up in the beams of the ceiling. I did need to move the candle to the side however as I couldn’t see my partner past it as it was in our eye line. The candle holder is also an old tequila bottle, which is a nice touch but takes a lot of space up on the table. On opening the menu, I noticed it was sticky. Which wasn’t the nicest. As the room is relatively dark I was unable to tell if this was old food or if they’d wiped the menu’s down, but it does make you a little wary. It took a while for the waitress assigned to our section to then come around to take our order. So we ordered drinks and our food at the same time. While waiting for the food to arrive my partner who has type one diabetes was trying to access the internet to look up carb info, unfortunately we noticed that we couldn’t get any signal so asked for the Wi-Fi code. We were brought around the password from the actual Wi-Fi router which contained password but it has been badly scratched so we couldn’t get it to work. Only a small thing to note should you need access to the internet at all during your visit. When the starters arrived I had the taquitos, pork. I have a gluten allergy and stipulated this when ordering but when the starters were brought out there was no indication on the plating that it was gluten free or any second mentioning from the waiting staff. Nether the less, they looked like corn being a yellow colour so proceeded to eat them, and I have to say they were delicious and I would have happily had a new more as a main course. The calamari my partner described as “umm, good, tasty”. Not long after we finished our starters the mains were brought out. I’m my opinion there wasn’t a big enough gap between the starter and the main. As soon as one plate was cleared, the next arrived. My partner ordered the prawn burrito and described it burrito as “Far too big, Far too cheesy, the prawns lacked something. Because it was so cheesy it was quite fatty and greasy and needed something to cut through it all.” He only ate half of it and on clearing the plates away we were offered to take it home but we declined, we made a point on the large portion and the waiter said “yeah, we feed a lot of Americans here”. My dads American and he wouldn’t have eaten the whole burrito. I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas. The steak was cooked nicely but I found it quite tough. The chicken was over cooked and a little dry. However again the portion size was huge and I was unable to eat it all. There was also not enough room on the table for all of the bits, so I had to rest the foiled wraps on my leg. Again I ordered a gluten free option but there was no mention of this when it arrived and this time the wraps were a lighter whiter colour, which caused me concern. In the end I didn’t eat the wraps because they were the same colour as the burrito wrap and as no indication they were gluten free it caused me some anxiety. Getting attention if the waiting staff to double check was difficult so I just left them to the side and ate the meat veg on their own. The couple wraps I did eat I have to say we’re not the nicest. They were quite tough and at the same time tasted undercooked, like there was some raw taste to them. I wouldn’t order it again. Drink wise I ordered the pina colada and again probably wouldn’t order it again. Though there was nothing overly wrong with it, I’ve just had better. Overall, it was just over £60 for two starters, two mains and two alcoholic drinks. I don’t think that’s particularly bad value given the absolute huge portion sizes. It might be worth Amigos offering a small medium large option at different price points so those who don’t want giant burritos fajitas can get the smaller options at a lower value. Amigos might also end up taking more as there was no chance we’d have been able to eat a desert, however if the main had been more appropriately portioned then we likely would have had one. However, in terms of the allergens. It’s great that they offer gluten free alternatives, however please introduce a GF sticker for the plates or get waiting staff to say “Gluten free Fajitas” when serving. It just helps to eliminate any fear that there may have been a mistake in the kitchen and helps diners with allergies to relax and feel more comfortable. As things stand. We wouldn’t return for what we had above. However, there was a good atmosphere in there and I’d possibly return as a place to have a few drinks and share some nachos, just not for a sit down meal."

"I have been going to The Derby Arms for years on and off since I was,18. The last time I sat in the room primarily used for diners I was with my family so it was a little emotional for me. The decor has changed but not the bricks and mortar. I don 't consider myself to be 'local ' anymore hence I could detect that the busy bar had a local edge to it. Not unfriendly, but the feeling that everyone knows everyone else. This is not necessarily a bad thing and everyone is kind and thoughtful which reflects the community itself. Over the years the food in the pub has gone from mediocre to outstanding depending on the chef in the kitchen. I know my mother would comment critically sometimes. However, I am delighted to report the that on this visit the service was brilliant and the food really superb. Front of house was really kind getting me a table as the resteraunt was heavily booked...and I can see why. Evening food is served from 5pm onwards and lunch is also available. The dining area is spotless and really comfortable with attentive staff who will bring drinks to your table. It 's a very homely atmosphere. I wasn 't visiting for a special occasion, I just popped in on my own but I was made to feel special. The food was just great, my 8oz sirloin spot on in terms of taste and how it was cooked. Really lovely. Now this is not a fair comparison, but stay with me. I had the misfortune to be reminded during to a chicken based fast food resteraunt in St. Helens how incredibly expensive it can be to 'eat out ' and having to endure terrible food served with an air of disdane in an atmosphere of artificial, disposable detachment. Given the above experience, when I got the final bill from the Derby Arms which included two delightful drinks and two outstanding courses, wonderful atmosphere, caring service and other customers who said hello...only a real fool would even consider visiting the former place to eat. I guess, I am using this comparison to say, that at a time when we are having to make cuts and difficult choices, there are still places you can really enjoy, that serve peerless food and offer great value for money. I am delighted The Derby Arms still has its sparkle, its class and its soul. Thank you for bringing back happy memories and making a new one. Best wishes, Paul."

"My wife and I live in the village and absolutely love this restaurant. We cannot praise Katy and all of the staff enough. We went to the Thursday Steak Night last night and it was truly the best. The steaks were cooked perfectly to our liking and the meal even included a lovely bottle of wine at a very reasonable price. We have dined here three times in the last couple of weeks and have never been disappointed. The chefs are fantastic, please thank them for us. The staff are all so pleasant and welcoming, creating a wonderful homely atmosphere. We feel fortunate to have a place like this in our village. Thank you to Katy and the entire staff for the great work they do. - Lyn and Geoff Nutting"

"We have driven past this pub for many years and finally went in for lunch. Kicking ourselves for not enjoying the gorgeous food here before! A proper gastro pub. Beautifully prepared food and friendly service. So good we have booked to go back. Loved the cod cheek pagodas for starter and was really good and didn't eat all of my husband's chicken, leek and ham pie. Gorgeous pastry and delicious mash. I had the lamb which was beautifully tender. Highly recommend. Found room for sticky toffee pudding as well"
"We haven't eaten at the Bell Inn for some time. However, as we were passing we popped in with no table reservation. Asked for a table for two and we were quickly seated. The staff are friendly and attentive. The Menu has changed since we...were last in and has reduced in options considerably however, there is probably something for everyone. Two for one is still available on main courses and as a bonus they do Blue Light discount, you can't complain about that. We ordered two 10oz rump steaks served with chips, onion rings, peas and a mushroom. You can order sauces for your steaks if you wish. The steaks were nicely cooked, overall not a bad meal. We were too full for desert."

"I've been here about three times now with the family, including a wedding reception. Always a fairly stress free trip, plenty of parking and the staff are always friendly. The food is nothing short of excellent.... if you eat meat. The vegetarian options on my last visit were a risotto (I've already had it, you know what you're getting with risotto), a goats' cheese salad, vegetable ravioli and a burger. This time I ordered the burger, having seen what the meat ones look like. When it arrived I honestly thought there had been a mistake. A single slice of lettuce, a single slice of tomato and a deep fried something or other that was so oily I couldn't taste anything else. My Brother's pulled pork burger on the other hand was phenomenal. Why would I eat this when I could get better, for half the price at Wetherspoons? Really lame, really disappointed. It is not that difficult to produce quality vegetarian food. I actually felt quite upset and spent most of the meal staring at my half eaten food. Unfortunately, the next time the Nags Head is suggested I will veto it."

"I went to Casa Mexicana with my partner for dinner whilst visiting Bristol. The food here was as good, if not better, than when I was cooked for by a Mexican family in Anaheim. The enchiladas were incredible and so filling, but not like the rip-off ones that you find meal kits for over here. It was classic Mexican and full of flavour. My partner had the chicken with rice, which tasted like it had been tenderising all day. These, plus the duck starter, tasted like you were visiting someone’s home and they were cooking for you. The atmosphere of low-lighting and dark interiors makes you feel you aren’t in England anymore, and mirrors the warmth and homeliness of the food. We will eat here every time we visit Bristol! Tip: Make sure you order the raspberry margarita. You will not regret it!"

"Lovely warm welcome and clean surroundings but tables and chairs are a little worn and wobbly. It became quite tiresome at the dinner table, making sure drinks didn't topple over. Refillable drinks, special deals on food and daily specials on the board. Sundays there is a carvery. I ordered the fajita burger and it was thoroughly enjoyable. Staff more than happy to let us eat our own birthday cake after our meal. Even provided a knife to cut it with. Toilets could of been cleaner given it was a very quiet Monday night, but nowhere is perfect I suppose. Overall I would come back. At least to try the carvery."

"On a cold winters night it was a real pleasure to call into The Five Horseshoes for a wonderful dinner. I have been here a couple of times and am never disappointed as the staff are always very cheerful and welcoming. We were seated at our table and served by Ellie, who was very attentive and pleasant, making sure we had drinks whenever we were getting low and ensuring our order was correct. I had Steak and ale pie and my wife had the Cod. Both were cooked to perfection and compliments to the chef for this. I would recommend calling into this restaurant if you are ever in the Hertford area."

"We've frequented this pub for over five years. The chef is friendly and hospitable, but after numerous off-handed remarks from the Landlady, being humiliated for not having booked (even when the pub is empty) failing to order enough food to warrant our having a table and complaining about being busy or no-shows, we will no longer return. After a hard week of working we go to the pub to relax and wind down, but end up stressed when visiting this establishment. We regularly walk our dogs in the hills behind and we sometimes make a spur of the moment decision to eat and grab a drink for which we should not be made uncomfortable. There's a friendlier pub just a few yards down the road."
