"We went for a midweek family lunch and having seen the menu before arriving, we were impressed with the range of choices which are often limited in other places and can only say that the quality of dishes more than delivered not only in taste but also in size for those that had the Lamb Shank. Loved the mushroom risotto as a starter which was also a healthy portion so really pleased an alternative was chosen to the lamb! The service was excellent, attentive whilst unobtrusive and pleasingly we were not rushed out of the door. Definitely a place to return to in the future."

"I would recommend visiting this restaurant during the week, as my previous experiences have been lovely when it is quieter. However, on Saturday it was very busy and chaotic, with multiple waiters serving our table and resulting in a duplicated drinks order. The unwanted drinks were not removed from the bill, so we had to double-check. The food also did not meet their usual standard, with my dish only being warm enough to eat. My husband found his scampi to be very average. While I have enjoyed meals here in the past, I don't think I will be visiting again after Saturday."

"Not the best experience or food if I am totally honest. As I entered the bar area i didn't quite know where the restaurant was, there were no signs.. I walked further down and could see the restaurant. I waited at the front to be seen to but no-one approached me, so i made my way back to the bar and explained i had a booking. I was told to take a seat at the bar. As i was waiting I could see guests were leaving after a wake. I did wait a good few minutes for our table, after asking if we can be seen to our table.. the restaurant area was still in a mess after the wake.. no tables were set up. So my friend and i went back to the bar and waited. When we finally sat down we were served. Food did arrive quickly.. Food was ok, not the best flavour or presentation.. especially the ravioli which was the most disappointing dish. There was no ambience in the restaurant.. no gentle background music or anything. The service was very good, all waiters seemed friendly and helpful. Pub itself looked quite nice once tidied and with candles lite during the evening."

"I went in today with my partner for a nice breakfast, the quality of the food was fantastic, the place had a very nice atmosphere to it. When I say down to eat there was a cheeky selection of cakes and we ended up leaving with a nice slice of lemon drizzle cake and a hearty Alice of chocolate salted caramel cake. I would definitely recommend it to anybody in the area who's looking for a nice bite to eat"

"I had not visited the hoop for a long time and I was pleasantly surprised. The parking hasn’t changed it’s either on the road or at the hall car park which is free and a sub 5 minute walk. The food was absolutely delicious, actually nicer than a Michelin 2 star I recently visited in London. Downstairs felt cozy and buzzy as it’s right next to the bar but upstairs was equally as nice and very well decorated. Service was helpful and timely, the ladies were knowledgeable on the dishes and timing was spot on when to ask if anything was needed. Food and drink was priced fairly not cheap not expensive. Will revisit Thank you!"
