"This is currently our go to pub for Sunday lunch when visiting family in the area, it’s cheap enough, decent food and an OK atmosphere and does a decent beer with guest beers available too. I would say for a family type eatery pub though it could do without the such high volume background music as that combined with people talking plus the noise from the TV’s in the other bar showing football made for an unpleasant experience for me. Overall the food was good as usual and service is pleasant but definitely marred by the lack of attention when billing us in not deducting the £10 deposit we’d paid to book the table, and not even a sorry when we asked for the adjustment at the bar. This was the second time in concurrent visits this had happened too. If it were my choice I’d vote with my feet and not visit again out of principle."

Excellent choice of beers in a pub with a small menu I decided to have two starters rather than a main course I had the prawns and calimari and chicken wings both of which I really enjoyed. Will definitely visit again.

Had a great evening at The Willow Tree with a group of friends and family. Everybody order food which was excellent and arrived in good time and all together. Staff are friendly and professional, we felt well liked after. Will return.

It's a nice place for a reasonably priced meal, staff are lovely and has a down to earth atmosphere. But, be warned, if you get a cup of tea they will put Luke warm water in a cup with the tea bag on the side like some sort of dystopian American dinner that has never seen a kettle before.

We popped in for a meal one Thursday night. Staff were really helpful, showed us to a table and bought our drinks over with a smile. Good menu with a lot of choice. I went for a medium rare steak, which was cooked perfectly, with crispy chips and onion rings! We will definitely be visiting again with family and friends!

Had a great late lunch with a friend who is a local here. I had Lamb Shank. Perfectly cooked, with thick dark gravy, just up my street. My friend had rump steak. We both commented on how filling and tasty our choices were. Really enjoyed the ambience, the service and the food. The interior is massive, but was spotlessly clean. Really enjoyed it here. See photo.

"I'll start with the positives. The interaction I had on Facebook to book a table, and then change the booking, was very positive. The two young waitresses who served us were great. The pub is shabby with rubbish and cigarette butts scattered outside the door...and a smell of smoke in the doorway. The décor is tired and tatty, and the bench seat in the restaurant area has a big split in it. The floor of the restaurant had bits of food and other rubbish on it. The salt and pepper and vinegar bottle didn't look like they'd been cleaned for a few days. The food was uninspiring, and mostly overcooked. The Yorkshire puddings were burnt black and were mostly inedible (when we commented on this, the waitress said she was too scared of the chef to say anything to him). The roast potatoes were hard and tough. The vegetables (not enough for 6 of us from one dish) were not great and the cauliflower cheese was the most uninspiring I've had for a long time. The lamb was OK, but that's all I can say about it. The whole menu (apart from a goat's cheese salad) was dull and unimaginative, even allowing for the fact that for Sunday lunch on Mother's Day most people want roasts. We didn't bother staying to have desserts. I thought from the TripAdvisor reviews that we were going to a gastropub, or a pub with a super restaurant. It was like having a meal in a pub 30 years ago, which is fine if that's what you want. It was a dreadful experience and not at all the way we wanted to celebrate my son's birthday and Mother's Day. We will not go back again."
