Slaters Country Inn

We were able to walk in on a Friday without a reservation and get a table. My wife ordered the beef dinner, which looked great. I opted for the Durban beef curry, which was delicious and filling.

Went for Sunday lunch with family and a two year old . Service and attention to our little one fabulous and kind Sunday Lunch is the best . Not only Greta value but so tasty . Usually disappointed with Sunday lunch out .. not this one . Fantastic

Why anyone would want to get married here I will never know. I had the misfortune to attend an event here will never return. The food is dreadful, the service management is worse. Listening to the superior staff talking to less experienced members was absolutely shocking. Avoid at all costs View menu

For us we normally would give Slaters a 4/5 star review. However on this occasion we could only give it 2/3 We ordered roast lamb which was quite tough. The meat appeared to be not cooked on the day but reheated from a previous day. This may have been due to us having an early booking. Also my wife’s desert was very bland.

Called and checked if Gluten free and vegan items available for Sunday Roast dinner to which we were told yes. On arrival, after receiving drinks, were told such were not available. When we explained that we'd called to check, waitress was quite rude and basically dismissed our claim. Cannot comment on food as we didn't stay but can state service is poor and rude.

I stayed overnight because I had a business meeting nearby the next day. I invited three guests for an evening meal and we were impressed with the excellent staff. The food selection was varied and all dishes were good and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was pleasant. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfast provided was excellent. Overall, it may not be fancy but it is perfect for an overnight stay. View menu

What happened here? Only one person was working at the bar and taking orders. When I asked for filter coffee, they brought me black coffee without milk. There was no indication that any orders were being taken, so I complained at the hotel reception. They were not interested. In the past, I have left good reviews after dining here and attending functions on multiple occasions. However, the service has gone downhill and is now chaotic.

Christmas Day lunch 2023,£100 per person. Lukewarm welcome ,I know it’s Christmas Day but if you work in hospitality then that’s the nature of the beast. Amuse Boucher,poor,pate a huge tasteless slab with one cracker ,no chutney. The Christmas dinner was mediocre a large piece of turkey wrapped around a pig in blanket making it look far larger than it was ,very few veg ,no mash and bullets for sprouts,Christmas pudding was nice ish!! All in all very disappointed and overcharged for drinks. Some staff were in jeans and looked scruffy,Andrew as always the gentleman. We come to slaters every 2-3 weeks and always enjoy our menu choices ,sadly Christmas lunch was a massive fail. Mrs N Booth .

Called in for lunch today to escape the awful weather. Pleasant cozy atmosphere with the wood burner lit and glowing. Staff were friendly. My husband had the doom bar and said it was an excellent pint. Plenty of choice of food including specials. I chose the roast beef dinner my husband the lasagne (large) Both meals arrived hot and great portions Thick slices of roast beef perfectly cooked homemade Yorkshire pud and plenty of vegetables and gravy it was excellent. Husbands lasagne was piping hot and he said it was delicious . He doesn’t like garlic bread and they brought him chips instead. He said even the salad was good! Great dressing.Couldn't manage a pudding we were too full. The qualit... View menu
