We went as a group of 5, including 2 years old. Restaurant was very accommodating with the child and dietary requirements. The staff was lovely, especially Hanna who was very chatty. We had a great time and enjoyed our food.

A great meal at The Abbeville as usual. Lovely steak and Anna and her team provided welcoming service. Made even better value with the taste card.

I love the Sunday roasts here. Such a cozy busy but comfy pub restaurant. And of course Yorkshire Puddings the size of your head. Yum

Excellent service and very good value for money. I’m not a vegan but had the vegan main (pumpkin Wellington) and it was delicious. Great relaxed atmosphere.

Roast dinner was actually really good, but the atmosphere and service was pretty poor. Made a booking for my partners birthday and on arrival was told, before even being seated ‘you have to be off the table by 3pm’ meaning a short lived trip with friends and a 7 month old baby. At 3pm, the next customers were brought to the table before we had even finished packing up. Over all, not a place for socialling, more a quick stop to eat and go.

We had a fabulous Sunday roast lunch here and the staff were great despite the very busy period at the time. Our waitress, Anna was especially fantastic - attentive and professional. Jordan & Derek

The food is generally fine - and Sunday roasts come out very fast. A recurring issue we've noticed about The Abbeville is that after mains come out, the service all but disappears. You'd like a condiment, good luck. Time to order pudding, good luck. Want to pay your bill: servers are nowhere to be seen. On our last visit, we had to get up and flag someone down on our way out to pay. If staff can't handle the workload, add more!

Nice atmosphere, lovely food, good service. Always a fan of the roast beef and enormous Yorkshire pudding. Kids enjoyed it too - had burgers and steak

Really great value food for a Sunday brunch with helpful and friendly staff. We had two under three fids with us and they looked after their needs too with activities and help with heating bottles. Good food and fresh ale too.

The Abbeville is our local. Usually reliable for a quick and yummy meal. As the menu changes seasonally, the offerings can occasionally disappoint. When staff is short, table service can suffer acutely.

The pub is really cosy and beautiful. The food is really delicious but the service was quite slow and we were waiting for our drinks and napkins for a long time. Would definitely recommend though!

Arrived and were told by three different people when they needed their table back which didn’t really make you feel welcome. Service other than that was great with lovely rooms/ tables. Had the burger which was just ok x

I enjoy coming to the Abbeville. It’s very busy on Sunday you have to book. They were very busy this time, and I had to prompt for a drink that I ordered as the rest of the table had received theirs. Overall food delicious

Had a great Sunday roast but not a great space for people with babies and children as there isn’t really anywhere to accommodate a small buggy.

Unfortunately we were greeted on our arrival by being advised the table was needed to be given back in 90 minutes. We were then rushed through our meal to ensure we met this window. It was not quite the leisurely lunch we’d hoped for.

I always come here, the restaurant is super dog friendly, staff always make a fuss of my dog and bring him water. The service is great and the food is really good. Highly recommended.

Really let down with the service and the food this evening. Having come to the pub regularly and always had amazing food and good service this was beyond disappointing. When we got there they had got the tables all mixed up. Then the food was brought out at different times (we ended up speaking to the chef directly). The food was average and not anywhere as good as it normally is. Then we were told (when we went to pay) that the card machines were down, no alternative way to pay was offered - my husband had to go home to get cash to pay. Whilst he was out I overheard the waitress pretending not to understand what an ATM was when someone asked them where the nearest one was. They should have been telling people as they came in as there isn’t any cash machines nearby. Really bad night as a result from a local pub that we normally love.

Not up to the usual standards. Had to wait over 20 minutes for my table. Kids Sunday roast portions are usually generous but not this time. Food wasn’t too hot either. As usual, the staff were working very hard. It was really busy, but that’s not a good enough excuse

pretty average meal on an early Sunday evening booking. Roasts never fully hit the mark here on sundays - kitchen just seems overwhelmed by demand. Would avoid on Sundays.

The Abbeville recently updated their menu -- not for the better. We used to return enthusiastically to what is our local pub. Now, not likely for a while to give them the opportunity to make their food options more compelling.
