"Disappointing. Ignored when we first walked in as two staff members by reception intent on sorting admin rather than attend to paying customers. Decor in need of redecoration. Wall lights with bulbs not working. Restaurant only appeared to be 25% full on a Saturday night, but still seated next to table of 8 , family gathering with small children. Food fairly average; eg deep fried Brie just one lump of Brie with poor garnish. On receiving the bill, waiter pushing too hard for a tip: writes on invoice that not included, tells me and then reminds me as he hands me the card reader. Unsurprisingly, not rushing to return..."

We enjoyed our time in the Ramblers Rest. Nice old building. The food was good, but the Tempura mushrooms were very oily. Service was friendly.

We had a great time at the Ramblers Rest. The restaurant is housed in a charming old building. The food was reasonably priced, although the tempura mushrooms were a bit too greasy for our liking. The service was friendly and attentive.

The food wasn't great to be honest. The pate came with very little crostini and salsa and the salad was okay, but the cucumber strips made it a little slender and the bacon was not cooked by. So no, I wouldn't recommend being honest with what a shame is because it's a tasty pub with great staff and a beautiful environment. View menu

Overall, I was not impressed with the food at this restaurant. The pate dish was lacking crostini and salsa, and the salad was just okay, with slimy strips of cucumber and undercooked bacon. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this place, despite the fact that it is a charming pub with excellent service and a beautiful atmosphere.

The food was okay. Nothing to write home about. We all had Sunday roasts at around 5 PM and some of the potatoes and vegetables were very dry and bland. The service was absolutely awful. It took 35mins to get asked what we would like for desert and then another 30mins to get served the desert. A huge disappointment to what once was a nice pub

"I planned a surprise dinner for my sister to celebrate a very big event and I was extremely disappointed with the service we received on November 11th. I wish I had gotten our servers name because he was extremely unprofessional. To describe him he is an older (I believe possibly Italian due to his accent) man. Upon entering the restaurant with my sister, her friends were already waiting inside and said surprise to her as we entered. There were a few other patrons in the restaurant at this point, none of whom looked irritated by the situation, in fact many of them were smiling at our celebrations. We sat down at our assigned table and began excitedly chatting and saying hello to our guests. As it was a surprise dinner my sister was especially excited as she was not expecting to see her friends there. After sitting down for no more than 5 minutes the server in question (who we soon realised was unfortunately going to be our server for the night) loudly told us to be quiet as we were “disrupting the restaurant” our level of noise was no more than what you would expect for a party of 7 and it felt like we were being intentionally targeted by him. Nevertheless we lowered our conversation down to be respectful and continued on with our night. He returned shortly after and hurriedly requested us to order our food, we obliged and ordered our respective meals. After some time of receiving and finishing our starters one of my guests asked about the approximate timing of our mains to which she was told that “it will be here when it’s ready”. To finish off the night of awful service when it came time to pay the bill, everyone had diligently calculated their individual totals (including shared drinks service charge) and when he approached our table with the card machine he loudly asked “who is in charge here?” We explained to him three times that nobody is in charge and we all have calculated our individual amounts and will pay individually. After he had collected payment from every single person on the table he said (again very loudly with no respect for our privacy or other customers) that we had not paid our complete bill and owed him money still. Everyone still had their receipts and endured their receipts matched up with the amounts they had calculated. Despite this, he still made the decision to cause a huge scene by bringing a calculator with all his copies of the receipts and sitting down at a table next to us continuously shouting across to us that he was short changed. I was extremely upset and unimpressed by the service we received that night especially in the context of it being a very important celebration dinner fort sister. The only reason why I’m even giving 2 stars is because the food was very delicious however the service was horrendous."
