"Visited last weekend and from the get go the service was horrendous, we were staying in a cottage within a 2 minute walk (if that so had the service been better we would of probably frequented the pub quite a lot! Walked in to the...pub for all bar staff to suddenly disappear, when there was finally someone we could talk to we asked if they had a table available for 5 people to be told I don't think so' with an extremely empty restaurant at 6 on a Saturday evening maybe we should have just walked out then and there! The Bar man then came back said yes we do have a table free' marched us through an empty restaurant into an entirely different room on our own. We were then told go back and order drinks at the bar and someone will come and take our food order. Starters were average at best, and one of them was forgotten you could hear the shouting in the kitchen when the waiter went back in and told them! Quite a while after ordering both starters and mains the waiter sheepishly came back and said we cant do 3x double cheeseburgers as we only have 3 burger patties left, so my husband had a double cheeseburger, his teenage brother had a single burger and my father-in-law chose a different option. No one particularly enjoyed their food, the prawn curry that was meant to be a special was awful and has used the cheapest of the cheap frozen prawns, the poppadoms that accompanied the prawn curries were swimming in oil and slipped out of your hands almost! Now onto the drinks! Its a shame as its a nice looking pub, although it did feel like it was a locals pub and we were not welcome."

A very friendly pub, everyone is made to feel welcome. Relaxed atmosphere but very well organised which is a tricky thing to achieve. Food was excellent (steak), the best I have had. Great place, I highly recommend a visit.

one of the most beautiful Sunday dinners we ever had. very generous portion sizes, we are told at the arrival that they were busy and may take orders longer than normal. that didn't know it at all. beautiful place, friendly staff and excellent eating. View menu

we found this pub after visiting lowther castle. the food was fantastic, the quality brilliant and the size of the portions massif! I even took half the meal for tomorrow! will definitely visit again when I am in the opposite and it is also favorable. many thanks for a great end of our day.

came with a friend to give her a birthday contract, nice and warm on a cold evening and a welcome as warm. everything on the menu is wonderful with large portions. (They don't have too much to lunch, but let them fool the big one. it is the quality is just as good. the pavlowa for pudding was amazing. had given 5 stars, but the beer was not a full pint.

Meal for two on our first night in our Cottage. We were told to come at 8pm due to high demand, came back 3hrs later to virtually empty pub with one other couple eating! Good service but the soup was Heinz obviously tinned yet priced...at £5,50 a bowl. Offered gluten free salmon only to be told later there was none left, my wife went with the chicken with little vegetables. I had an excellent beef pie with just 4 chunks of beef . Overall found it was not great value for money We returned later in week for my wife's pre booked 60th Birthday party, We mainly ordered beef which was dry and stringy which most people left. None of the staff acknowledged my wife's birthday despite the room being d...

It is with a heavy heart I have to say I’m absolutely devastated that this place has done significantly down hill. Always a favourite, supported them through lock down and when finally we go for a meal I was so let down. Table booked for...6:30pm Saturday evening food received at 8pm. Not at all acceptable having 3 kids. £8 a kids meal … frozen fish fingers, chicken nuggets and a frozen chicken burger with no butter, no salad just a plain burger and bun. Chips usually fantastic were anaemic! Asked if we’d like veg or salad with chips so we opted for veg…this was boiled potatoes and cabbage, hardly compliments chips! Scampi was over done and the meals was just so unbelievably disappointing. I...
