Overall a pleasant evening out but the food was very disappointing. I'm not sure if the Cradock is under different management since I last went but an overcooked rump steak (requested medium rare) and very underwhelming accompaniments for £15.95 won't see me rushing back.

Good food - we had four different dishes between us. A little busy (6.15pm booking) so took a little longer than we would have liked.

Great service and good food. Even at their busiest time they still had time to cook my different meal request (can't have anything with alcohol in). Pleasant surroundings.

Excellent food. Great service, and warm friendly atmosphere inside. Staff couldn’t do enough for you, and very kindly altered my meal when I didn’t like one part of it. Great selection of drinks too! Lovely evening!

The food at the Craddock is always ace. The service is always outstanding. If it is not on the menu and you want something different ask the server and they will check if the chef can do it for you. That is what I call service.

I went with my husband for an early (5.30 pm) pre-concert, Saturday meal with my husband and we were surprised by how busy the Cradock Arms was. It was clearly very popular, so we were hopeful the meal would be good. We were not disappointed. We both chose the Cradock fish pie and it was delicious. A member of staff commented that it was always a favourite! We found the staff to be friendly and helpful. We will certainly dine here again.

We had a lovely table and were served very quickly by a friendly and helpful waiter. The food was delicious as always. A wide range of choices and the specials board had some great new dishes to choose from My friend enjoyed it so much she is going to take her husband there next week. I will certainly be back there again very soon

Food and service up to its usual high standard. New menu with some of the old favourites and some newcomers. Missing the Scampi and Creme Brûlée’s. However still an excellent choice. Will book again. Great value.

I enjoyed my meal but it was not as good as previous visits to this venue ! My friend who was dining there for the first time enjoyed most of the food supplied. I will be going to the Craddock Arms again.

I Aenjoted the changes to the menu except for the pickles in the burger. However the waitress did say if I ever want to order a burger I can ask for no pickles so happy now. Staff were helpful and food very good. Was busy but we didn’t have a long wait which was great.

The menu seems to have changed in the last few months, not for the better. The steak sandwich now has pesto and some other sauce .. Also when you serve salad please do NOT add dressing as it will get left if peeps do not like dressing. In fact the salad looks delicious without dressing and something I would eat but not with. If you need to include dressing for the salad please leave this separate. I think you are getting this comment...thanks!

We normally have great food and service here. Unfortunately this time we were sat in a booth by the toilets and were either forgotten by the waiters or served twice. After nearly two hours we gave up waiting for someone to take our pudding order and paid. There seemed to be no system or communication among the staff. After we’d paid we were asked for our pudding order and then asked if we wanted the bill. My partner left a £5 tip which I thought wasn’t deserved.

As always the food was excellent, hot, freshly prepared, and well presented without being pretentious. Good service, good guest ale and wine choice. Well done Leah and co. at the Cradock!
