We had never been here before but decided to book as it wasnt too far away and Three Cheers had a 50% off food over the half term week. Well, the food was divine, three sharing plates between the two of us for starter (try to have the broccoli guacamole- its incredible!) And then two mains. We decided not to have desserts but they looked very tasty too. The service was great and the pub was full- we had a little booth which was so nice. Would definitely come back!

The room was barely lit... Too dark to my liking. Duck was definitely not tender enough. But: delicious "small plates" (starters) and desserts, nice service!

It was amazing as always. The new waiter that had his first day today was really fantastic and was a little shy but helped us out with all our needs. He is definitely a catch and I am sure that he will blossom within the role

Lovely Saturday evening meal. The service got a bit worse as it got busier but there only seemed to be one person serving the whole back section so that’s understandable. Really lovely food, atmosphere and overall experience.

The Bolingbroke is a really good gastro pub. The food is excellent and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. Good atmosphere, relaxing and smart but informal decor. (I would also like to add that last time I was there with a friend in a wheelchair, the staff were incredibly helpful to make his visit there as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.)

Delicious food, helpful service and lovely ambiance, especially in the conservatory restaurant. We can especially recommend the avocado and broad bean dip and the nuttela gnocchi with banana ice cream!

The dinning room at the back was beautifully decorated with huge flowers hanging from the high ceiling of the conservatory. Food delicious and service perfect.

I love the Bolingbroke. The staff are really friendly and they don’t make you feel uncomfortable when you come in with babies or children. The food is generally good but sometimes it could be better, for example, the peas in my roast dinner were the opposite of fresh and tasted bitter. The brownie was quite hard, so either over cooked or a bit burned around the edges. Other than that, I can’t fault them!

Lovely pub and atmosphere. Good meal but could be much better. More variety with food options would be great as menu stays pretty much the same and better quality food. It is still great but could be better. Service was good.

Really nice afternoon lunch at the Bolingbroke with friends. The service and food were excellent and the Christmas decorations are probably the best I've seen in a pub, so festive and cosy! The only reason I'm not scoring 6 is that prices were quite steep but otherwise a wonderful meal.

We’ve been coming every Christmas time for the past 6 years. This year the food was very average, not what we were expecting. Mushroom wellington was sliced mushrooms wrapped in pastry with gravy granules. Very underwhelmed.

The Bolingbroke created a lovely Christmas environment for my father and I to enjoy our Christmas Eve dinner. Such lovely service and a delicious meal. Thank you!
