"We went for a lunch, there were fourteen of us nine having a roast The food was very good however the policy of sharing veg in my experience in the hospitality business always leaves someone disappointed! There was one dish of veg at one end of the table for four people and another at other end of the table for four people! So my wife number nine in the middle of the table surrounded by people not having a roast had to put up with a few carrots no body else wanted! My wife is different to me as Farr as she does not like making a fuss! I was very angry when she told me what had happened! If I was supplying a meal I would make sure everyone was provided with a portion of veg and not left to distribute the veg themselves! Please ask your staff to make sure everyone is happy not just ask two people at the end of the table! Just a bit of constructive criticism that I think you should take on board!"

We stopped here for a drink after a walk around the village. Lovely pub, with seating both inside and outside, with plenty of shade to avoid the midday sun!

Just enjoyed a really lovely high tea at Bickleigh Mill. Cakes, scones and sandwiches were all excellent. The service was very good. Will go back again soon.

We visited for a bite to eat, it was very busy as it was a Sunday lunchtime but the staff were efficient and we enjoyed our food. We haven't been for several years so it was nice to see the shop was just as lovely as always.

High Tea highly recommended. Plenty of chose from and all very fresh and homemade. Great Staff too. Place very clean. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, even brought extra tea when asked. Would definitely say value for money

Been here many times for breakfast always lovely. Sometimes afternoon just for tea and cake. But today decided to have lunch. Steak and ale pie was delicious. Friendly helpful staff. Lovely shop to look around after. Nice pleasant setting

Didn’t see the ‘wait to be seated’ sign on tne counter in amongst all tne other signs, so we found a table for two with out a reserved notice on it. A lady came out and said we should have waited to be seated and you can’t sit there it’s reserved (no sign on the table! so she moved us to another table that had a reserved’ sign on it!!!!

This venue was not a good experience. We took friends for lunch and sat outside on a pleasant day. My three companions all had sandwiches with a side salad. They were OK with filling but in inch thick slices of bread which was badly cut. Non of my party managed to finish it. Far too much for our elderly ladies. Perhaps wholemeal sliced bread would be an alternative option. As for me I had a Pork and Apple pie with undercooked vegetables. When I took the top off the pie after the first bite I found 6 very small pieces of diced Pork in a thick, sweet Apple sauce. Not good enough. It was left. I really do not mind paying for good food and service but that an over £50 experience I will not be re...
