"I ordered the prawn cocktail, which was absolutely terrible. The prawns looked strange and did not taste like a classic prawn cocktail. The other two starters did not come out until 10 minutes after the prawn cocktail. Our main meals were then served, but my beef was cold and had to be sent back to be reheated, possibly in a microwave. The parsnips and carrots were undercooked and hard, and the gravy was thin and flavorless. For the price of £20 for a roast, I expected a much better tasting meal. We also ordered the lamb filet kebab for £22, which was also disappointing. The lamb was chewy and the chips were dried out potato wedges. The homemade mint sauce tasted like it had come from a jar. This restaurant does not serve the homecooked food it promotes on its website. I had originally booked for Christmas Day dinner but have since cancelled. I will definitely not be returning to this restaurant."

Great menu, lots of options. We went on Greek night and the food was amazing. Service was quick and the staff friendly.

Since ownership changed hands some months ago unfortunately the prices have gone up and the food has gone down. Service staff remain great but chef seems to have his own ideas about what I should eat. Enough said !

Perhaps it was the numerous parking signs, or maybe it was the staff removing all the beer mats from the tables at 9 o'clock, or perhaps it was simply the overall attitude of the staff, but I couldn't help but feel like the pub didn't really care whether they had customers or not. View menu

We popped in with the dog for something to eat. Friendly reception, order taken and the food arrived outside much quicker than expected. We had two wraps at £11 each which were perfectly cooked, very tasty and filling, both came with chips and red cabbage coleslaw. Beers fine, The Old Spring probably tastier of the 3 we tried. 10% service on the bill.

We haven’t been here for years and stopped on the off chance and really enjoyed a meal and some drinks. Firstly they serve Peroni and Aspells, our favourite drinks Second even though it was 2:45 and they stop serving food at 2:30, they happily prepared us some food Third it was delicious We ordered the steak and chicken burger. The chicken burger was a huge piece of meat in a brioche bun and I loved it! Loads of chips too. They planning some Greek nights and I think they’re going to be great! The barman, possibly the landlord was very friendly and we watched him go out of his way to find a balloon to keep a tired baby happy while her parents ate their lunch. Would highly recommend a visit
