The Wooden Spoon - Menu

We went for mother's day lunch, we all had a roast, this was absolutely amazing, everything especially the meat was cooked to perfection couldn't of asked for better

Treated ourselves to a Sunday lunch. The main course was delicious good value for money. The pudding was disappointing for £6. The service was good they have a nice choice of beers. Would definitely eat here again.

Drove there for a roast . Yorkshire pud was burnt black stank they changed it for equally burnt and frozen in centre .the vegetables were sour rancid stank .called manager he smelt it ran off with plate .I had to adj for money back he left the embarrassing thing with a young teenager who apologized .it's dangerous to eat there health person should check it out kitchens especially View menu

Came to Downton for a mini break with friends and dogs. We were luck enough to have The Wooden Spoon opposite our air bnb. Ate there 3 days out of 4, and food was always fresh tasty and obviously Homemade. Really great staff and land lord/lady. We will be returning again hopefully soon. Dogs accepted and fussed over, the pub dog Boozer is a star attraction. Thank you The Wooden Spoon xxx

Honestly baffled why this place has so many good reviews. The ‘chef’ must’ve taken a dislike to us when we went! The food was so bad we got a meal and a round of drinks knocked off our bill. There was dog hair in our side order of chips! When we asked about this the chef told the waiter to let us know the dog had got in to the kitchen!! I reported this place to the council due to poor hygiene.

Visited wooden spoon on Easter Sunday with hubby sister brother in law. So very welcoming as soon as you enter. Great selection of ales which pleased the males, espically the reverend James. Great selection on the menu vast choices. Myself hubby had liver bacon with mash absolutely scrummy. Others had beef and duck. 100% recommend this pub and will certainly frequent again. Staff were fantastic,espically landlady View menu

Four of us (plus dog) went here for lunch today and shared a couple of starters, deep fried brie and hot smoked trout, both delicious. Mains of Lamb Tagine, Chicken and Belly Pork were also fabulous and we loved our Cheesecake and cheese and biscuits for afters. All arrived promptly and with great service and very reasonable too. Four very happy customers thank you so much. Second time we have been here, but pretty sure we will be back!!

For years, we have been regular patrons at this restaurant and have always been greeted warmly. The food has consistently met our expectations in terms of quality. The menu is extensive and, although it hasn't changed much over time, there is a wide variety of options to choose from. The recent improvements to the car park and the addition of a beer garden at the back have only enhanced the dining experience. We highly recommend visiting this village pub as the food is delicious and served in generous portions.

Called in for a drink a couple of months ago and was initially impressed- well kept beer, nice atmosphere, super-friendly landlord. On the basis of this, we returned for food, which seemed to be in the hands of the landlady/cook, rather than the landlord we'd previously met. What a contrast- whereas he's the perfect host, she appeared to be grumpy to the point of rudeness- more suited to running a back street takeaway than a country pub. We overlooked this hoping for good food, but the extensive menu was a giveaway that although this may have been home cooked at some point, most items were just reheated on demand. Very average considering what so many pubs are offering. Looking at the other... View menu
