"As locals, we have eaten at The Falcon many a time over the years mainly, but not always, being perfectly happy with the food and service. However, our last visit was a real disappointment. Usually the bar and restaurant are busy and the atmosphere convivial, especially on a Friday, but when we arrived, apart from a large noisy family do in the conservatory (we decided to eat in the bar there were only a couple of other tables occupied. By 8.30pm all the tables apart from one other and the bar itself were completely empty so the whole place was eerily quiet. Given this and that there were only three of us (7pm arrival the service was iffy (very slow to even bring us the menus, ordering water which never arrived etc but most importantly, the meal itself was generally underwhelming. I asked if I could have the duck well cooked no, only as it comes, pink; the beef dish (pretentiously called Pecanha which on questioning, the waitress described as a hunk of cow! could only be served medium rare. What we did order in the end was generally uninspiring. There are plenty of other good restaurants in the area so I’m afraid we wont be in any hurry to return to the Falcon."

this is a great place for food/ snacks and drinks. the service was excellent and three young men who served us went beyond and beyond his duty, he was a very personable waiter. eating was amazing, we loved it.

Fantastic find. The 2 year old granddaughter chose it by blind scrolling on TripAdvisor. She chose very well. Lovely place, food was awesome and the staff were lovely and attentative with the grand children. Will definitely be going back.

The restaurant was surprisingly quiet, but my pigeon madras starter and guinea fowl main course were excellent. However I thought the ales and lagers a bit expensive. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £50–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 View menu

We were on a walk in the area and stopped in for a break. Service was friendly if a bit slow. We were hoping to get a bar snack, but the lunch menu was mostly just main meals. However we chose three small items for £12 and a bowl of chips, which made quite a good lunch.

we stopped at this great old pub full character for lunch halfway through a circular walk in the opposite friendly but not the fastest service, eating was pleasant, but not really what we were after. we and others asked for a light bite sandwiches, but these are not available.A missed opportunity imho.

restaurant quality eat without the full, attentive service and beautiful atmosphere. had a meal for two in the week, it was not busy eating was excellent quality from the "pub food" menu and the service was attentive without being overlaid. I have eaten at some local places and this is some of the best food in the opposite. only improvement could be a small music in the orangery, but otherwise excellent round.
