We visited after a long journey and were hungry. The front of the house was welcoming, but the food was terrible. The potatoes, unpeeled and as hard as rocks, and the vegetables lacked both colour and taste, appearing withered. Additionally, the gravy was just Bisto.
We were excited about going as the reviews were great. Our burgers were OK, lettuce leaves were huge, and burgers kept sliding off the bun. We didn’t receive all of the ingredients mentioned on the menu. Puddings were very expensive and the affogato was a complete disappointment.
We enjoyed being back in the atmospheric pub! Thank you
Loud music on arrival. Service and food OK.Little imagination with menu. Parking good.
First time we have visited since Mark took over, and we were not disappointed. Warm welcome, delicious food and, with children’s meals costing £1 until 12th April, excellent value
Good service, the food was good but had to return one meal as the potatoes weren't cooked. Dealt with efficiently and the meals were lovely. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and nice pub 🙂
Ordered fish and chips- fish was uncooked,& returned while my friend had almost eaten hers, before my food returned ( now cooked). Was told I wouldn’t be charged for that meal, which I wasn’t. At the end, The waiter took and zapped my card for contactless transaction before I could check the amount on the mobile device. When I checked the receipt I realise I had been overcharged and had to be refunded. A disaster for what should have been a treat for my friend’s birthday. Avoid !!
Lovely friendly staff and great food. Dog friendly too. Good location for a walk before or after your meal.
This wasn’t our best visit to the Dog and Pheasant. The Sunday Lunch menu was limited and the food was just ok.
Lovely food. Very very friendly staff! Worth a visit. Will definitely be going back.
Our order was incorrect and when corrected, the starter was not good. It was very dry as though overcooked and looked unappetising. The atmosphere in The Dog & Pheasant is always pleasant with the open fire lit making it a cosy venue. Not sure I would want to eat there again at any time soon however.
Delicious food and great service, a really nice evening had by all
Really lovely meal - food was delicious and all fresh, hot and served quickly. Staff were lovely - it was our server's first day and he did a really great job (possibly called Andrew??) Will definitely be back to dine in or have a takeaway
Fantastic Sunday roast. Beautiful location, lovely staff - highly recommend!
Friendly and attentive service from the staff and tasty food.
Sadly we went on a Tuesday night and were told they they only do pies on Tuesday which we had not been told. I have since looked at the website and this is not listed under 'Menus' but under 'Events'. This is the second that that this has happened - last time it was a very limited menu as the chef was away. This sort of information needs to be on the opening page of a website to avoid disappointment for customers.
Menu was unexciting but I enjoyed what I chose. Especially the crumble!
Charming staff who although it was very busy were polite and helpful and looked after our small person perfectly
Excellent food and very good, polite and prompt service. They could not have been more charming. I would certainly recommend this pub.
We arrived early for lunch and enjoyed a good meal in front of a roaring open fire. Most enjoyable, even the background music was of our era.
Had lunch here with a colleague yesterday. First time I have been here and was a bit put off by the outside which needs some TLC e.g. clearing up the dead leaves and filling the potholes in the car park. However, once inside we received a very friendly welcome. The service and the food were first class. I shall be back.
Sadly our waitress appeared to be new as she muddled which beers were available, when I asked what ginger drinks they had she offered me alcohol free gin, she told me the beef burger wasn't available when it was. She appeared new and lacking in confidence, and as a result the service was awkward. I would have been happier if she'd actually said 'sorry I'm new I'll check'. She could write a note of the meals and beers that aren't available and clip it to her order pad. Food was great.
All OK, good food and efficient service. Will be back
Staff were very polite and organised, Food good, waiting time good even thpugh the restaurant was busy, classic country pub and dog friendly.
We had been here before, and it had been good enough for us all to have driven at least enough an hour and a half to get there again today. This time it was all okay, which was all they seemed to aiming for. One of the three draught beers was off, one of the lagers was off, and the lager we opted for in consequence was flat, although they didn't notice, or perhaps they did notice but thought that was okay. Our main courses were, well, okay. They offered the dessert menu, then told us that everything was off, apart from a chocolate brownie or ice cream. Service was friendly and helpful, but unable to do anything about the various shortcomings. If you want to make a trip out to a country pub to have no better than an okay experience, then the Dog & Pheasant will, probably, be okay.
Lovely pub, really great service. Can’t fault it at all.
Food was very nice. Staff were helpful and friendly. Will visit again
A delicious roast by the fireside in this cosy dog friendly pub - perfect Sunday
Friendly and efficient service and very delicious and wholesome food.
Food quality has improved greatly and the staff were very attentive
Lovely atmosphere Delicious food esp the roast beef Nice service
Excellent pie today. Great and friendly staff. Warm fire too.
2 starters, 2 burgers and a bottle of wine for £94…….seems quite overpriced to me
First time used this pub after being recommended to use it by a friemd. There were 18 in our lunchtime meet-up group, which the staff, the food, the service and parking were all excellent. Thank you Dog & Pheasant, look forward to coming here again. Most kind regards - Andy A
Very friendly and efficient staff Lovely atmosphere / ambience after a long walk Real log fires and great food
Lovely friendly place. Good food and beautifully warm with two open fires
Great local pub, friendly and great food at reasonable prices
Second visit with out dog too. What a great place to be. A pub that’s got a warm and cosy feel and the staff are amazing. We sat next to fire and had a wonderful evening.
Great food Lovely log fire Will Deffo be back for sure
All was great until the desserts. Firstly, I had asked on the order form for a candle in one to celebrate a birthday. The serving staff knew which of our party was celebrating but nothing was forthcoming. Secondly the hot chocolate pudding was not hot, there was no poached pear and the sauce was really watery. Sorry!
