I had booked a table for a big birthday celebration, the service was slow even though they were not that busy when we arrived. The food we ordered I asked to swap a meat and was told no I couldn’t do that, u was a little unsure as to why though? The food cane however was on the cool side, my mums potatoes were cold in the middle. Food tasted ok though, then the plates were taken and we asked for pudding menus, we didn’t receive these for another 20 minutes. Then waited another 10 for someone to come over to take our order, then being told “don’t know if you know, we have had 2 big tables arrive so Pudding won’t be out for 30 minutes! We decided not to have pudding and weren’t very happy, when I arrived the man told me I was the only one who had booked a table! I was very annoyed about the Pudding and the waiting time as I had booked a table! Very upset and don’t know if I will come back

We were a party of four. The décor was great. To start with there was only one other couple. We were quickly served a three course meal plus drinks plus coffee. It was excellent food and excellent service. If I had to criticise it would be that the portions are huge. I was full up after my starter, It wasn't that the plates were piled with food there was just plenty of it. A great place for a night out. A three course meal, wine and coffee worked out about £30 each.

The menu was limited, we were only told at the table it was only roast dinners. Our waiter went out of his way to ensure I could have fish and chips.

Very busy night, the staff polite. Chips were cooked so much there was no potato left on all plates with chips and the fish consisted of a copious amount of batter. Other meals though were fine and tasty. Had to go to the bar to pay as we were forgotten.

Such a shame, the pub decor & atmosphere is lovely, menu good too. We've been here numerous times since inn-credible took it over & the experience is getting worse. This last time we had to wait at least 45 mins between courses & the lamb was the tiniest lamb shank we have ever seen. All the other tables were also complaining & none of their food came out together - this is awful service. So sad to see all the empty tables on a Saturday night when all the other town restaurants are busy (clearly down to the Beeswing's unfortunate reputation). Feel so sorry for the staff as it seems they're not given the resources to be able to provide a good service & yet they take all the 'flack'. So to me the only ones responsible are the inn-credible company. We were advised by others not to eat here but thought we'd give it another go, however unfortunately we now won't be returning.

We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and at short notice decided to have a meal out and booked a table at short notice. As this restaurant was close to home a short walk as all it needed to enjoy an excellent meal in an ambient way.

Normally we enjoy the Beeswing however on this occasion we were really disappointed! The service was poor despite the staff standing around behind the bar chatting, the food was overcooked, and our drinks order was forgotten!

Service was poor from the restaurant staff. Mixed grill arrived without the black pudding advertised when this was mentioned lady came back threw the pb down and walked off. Didn’t offer a steak knife no sauces etc. You would of thought I’d of asked for an additional porterhouse steak by her indignation. Wouldn’t go back and would never recommend

We booked in the car on the way to pub, a very late booking, so glad to have the ability to book online. The service was excellent, friendly, helpful staff, regularly checking if we were okay, but not intrusively. The food and service has improved greatly. My husband was disappointed the ribs are no longer in the menu, but enjoyed his fish and chips. I enjoyed my fishcake meal, butit did not match the description in the menu, and could do with a larger poached egg, to match the size of the fishcake.

We booked a table for 7.00pm so guess that the roasts we ordered suffered from being late in the day. It’s a shame that the standard is gradually getting worse since the refurbishment if The Beeswing as this wasn’t our first disappointment. The restaurant side was also virtually empty which is a sign that things aren’t good. Please look to improve the quality of the food and service.
