"I don’t write many reviews, and if I do they’re normally positive but I have to comment on our experience last night. To start on a positive, my wife and I both ordered steak which was very pricy at 25 but extremely well cooked. Now. The negatives. The area for dining was absolutely crammed to bursting point. Our table which was booked well in advance was stuffed in a corner, by the bar and entrance to the pool room which meant people constantly hustling past us. Not conducive to a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Plus the dog wandering around the pub unsupervised and stuffing it’s nose onto our table was an added treat whilst eating. Bit of a saga to order the food too. No tab allowed, took menus to look them back to the bar to order only to be sent back to the table for a member of staff to come over with his iPad. As previously stated, the steak was great, as it should be for 25!! The cheap frozen French fries that accompanied it was insulting and I’d expect better for the price. Booked table for 7 pm, stuck in a restaurant with far too many diners and then told to basically hurry up and get off the table by 8.30! A very poor evening out with owners/management clearly only seeing signs. I know it won’t make a difference as it’s the only pub there and very popular, especially in the summer but I certainly won’t return. There’s plenty of holiday makers to fleece so I won’t be missed"
