It was a good meal - I just think there needs to be more veggies with the Sunday lunch, apart from that it was good

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.

Food was great, service impeccable - really quick. Did not have time to feel starved! Staff were really polite, friendly and professional. I had never been to The Craddock Arms before. Had met a friend there few days ago for drinks and really liked what was on the menu hence booked a table. I had an amazing experience.

We regularly eat at the Cradock Arms and always enjoy the experience. The staff are very attentive and cheerful and friendly too. The food is absolutely brilliant and very good value. This is an excellent venue for family gatherings of any size and children are well looked after and catered for. Sunday lunch today was beautiful and the guest we brought with us thoroughly enjoyed her roast turkey and peach cobbler and the meal was a great success. Many thanks.

On the whole good, but did feel the person who took our drinks order was somewhat judgemental. We were 5 adults and 2 small children, after ordering six non-alcoholic drinks (4 adults were drivers) the person whose birthday it was ordered a beer (he was not driving) to which we got the remark “at last someone’s ordered a proper drink” whilst being responsible drinkers you do not want to feel you should be ordering alcohol - perhaps he was on commission

We had a delicious meal. Two of us chose ham and eggs with the best chips so far this year. The pie and mash were also excellent. only reason not a 5 star review was the fourth person ordered a chicken salad which was delicious but a small portion. Overall a great visit as always.

Lovely meal with friendly and attentive staff. There were only 4 or 5 other tables eating but we felt the wait for food was noticeably long. This is the second time we've waited a long time. Last time we went we waited an hour and a half and they admitted they had mislaid the order and/or the chef hadn't seen. Luckily the food was good and evening wasn't spoilt on either occasion. Needs mentioning though.
