"Went for mothers day with the family. The booking system was great and the pub came back to me promptly with a query I raised. the pub externally is looking quite tired, there was what looked like an abandoned car out the front so first impressions weren't great. We were seated in the upper section of the restaurant, which really lacks any character and makes you feel as if you're sitting right in the thoroughfare for the kitchen. The set mothers day menu seemed good for the price, 3 courses at just under £25. We asked if we could swap a starter dish from the standard menu with the mothers day but we're refused. Out of the party we ordered 2 roast dinners, these weren't great. They came swimming in gravy which unfortunately wasn't a very nice tasting so ruined the meal. The roast potatoes were so bland and tasted like they had been frozen. The real disappointment came at pudding, we ordered the chocolate brownie bites from the children's menu, firstly to be told there was one left then told they'd run out. My son opted for the ice-cream instead then to overhear (when the waitress was serving our desserts the waitress very loudly announce to another waitress that the brownie bites were back on (not sure how they had found them all of a sudden? , would have been better firstly not to announce this across the restaurant as my son overheard and secondly if there was going to be a delay on the bites then it would have been nice to have the option. Had expected a much better experience. There are many other pubs in the area so I'll be opting for another one for our next outing."

"We had spa treatments lined up for the afternoon and lunch with a glass of bubbles was included in the package. We were shown to our table and given menus and a wine list. With lunch being part of the package I had to leave my seat and check with the maitre de as to what was actually included rather than being advised when seated. With the option of two courses each, I went for starters and main and my wife went for main and desert. I chose the crispy Parma ham with poached egg followed by the Moroccan Lamb and my wife chose the herb gnocchi followed by the Creole fruit salad. Not much could criticised about my starter other than the poached egg was over cooked but my Moroccan Lamb was far from Moroccan. The lamb sat on a bed of plain couscous surrounded by grilled peppers, courgette and aubergine which were described as Provençal but there was no hint of tomato to be found. The lamb was plain with no hint of any spices. I question the term “Moroccan Lamb”. The herby gnocchi appeared to be fried and tasted more like a bland bubble and squeak. The lemon mascarpone was ok. Finally, the “Creole fruit salad” was nothing more than pineapple and orange segments with some coconut shavings and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. We even found pips left in some of the orange segments. All in all a very disappointing and lack lustre lunch but thankfully the treatments were good."
