"Today we discovered that the Rising Sun has updated their menu. We inquired about the vegan options and were told that we could try the "Vegan Chicken Tenders" in a baguette with chips and side salad, or as a salad, or in a burger bun (although they had run out of burger buns). We decided to order two VCT salads and two portions of garlic bread. When our meal arrived, it resembled more of a Caesar Salad, but after removing the non-vegan ingredients, it was basically just lettuce with a splash of dressing. We found the presentation to be unappetizing and at a price of £14.50 each, we felt the meals were overpriced. We requested some additional salad ingredients such as tomatoes, cucumber, and peppers to make it more of a salad. To our surprise, we were given a small bowl of tomato and cucumber, as well as a "Salsa" mix of diced tomato, cucumber, and red onion, at no extra charge. When I questioned the cost of the salads upon payment, I was told that "vegan food is expensive to purchase". However, we were given a £7 discount on our bill for the two garlic breads. Despite our love for this pub, mainly for the friendly regular staff, cozy ambiance with fires and candles in the winter, and great local walks, we may only visit in the future for drinks."

Sunday roast absolutely delicious. Best pub grub ever. Friendly and attentive staff, but not over the top.

We had a wonderful dining experience at The Rising Sun. The atmosphere of the pub was lovely, the food was delicious, and the service provided by Freya and Zoe was excellent - not too slow, not too rushed, just right for a relaxing meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and will definitely be coming back!

Four of us went for Sunday lunch and were very disappointed. Three had the roast lamb and I had the four meat roast we all found the lamb was full of fat and gristle some I had I had to remove from my mouth because I couldn't chew it I also found the beef and pork were a poor quality although the chicken seemed ok. I complained to the waitress she said she would mention it to the chef but we got no feedback or a reduction in the bill so I'm definitely not recommending any to try this restaurant
