Awful. We booked weeks in advance and yet when we arrived was told there was a half hour wait. Absolutely no apology was offered. We had a child with us too who wouldn’t want to wait. We were not even offered a drink whilst we waited. We left because of the poor customer service and having been told that even when seated there was a delay on food. Shocking service and would not go again. Went somewhere else instead and had a wonderful meal.

We arrived to a quietish Farmhouse just after 2pm. We ordered food soon after and unbelievably it took almost an hour for 2 steaks and a burger to arrive. Had we not complained it would’ve taken longer. To add insult to injury the steaks were lukewarm and during the wait the waitresses didn’t once come over to either apologise nor offer us a drink. When settling the bill no discount was offered. I will never visit this place again.

Had to wait for table although it was booked!!! Afternoon Tea sandwiches were a little dry round the edges after waiting 40mins for them to arrive. Scones heavy and sweet treats 2 out 3 options were chocolate, lemon tart raw pastry. I would not return for the cream tea but staff friendly and nice atmosphere.

We requested to make a pre-order for our food because we do not have long for lunch. We specifically requested our food to arrive at 13.15pm because our lunch break is only from 13.00-14.00, however the food arrived at 13.40-13.45 which made us rush our food. We was late back to work by 15 minutes due to this. Maybe a pre-order option should not be an option at the restaurant if it is impossible for the food to arrive on time? Other than that, we enjoyed the food, it was very lovely and the service was good.. Thank you

The service was super slow, and the roast dinners decidedly average. The vegetarian roasts came with NO roast potatoes which was so strange! Disappointing, I won't go again.

The menu had good choices, a nice selection. The quality of the sausage and bacon was very good, you can tell a cheap sausage, but these were amazing, both the sausage and bacon were very good quality. The staff were lovely, really attentive, made you feel relaxed. This is now going to be our regular meeting place for breakfast, brunch, lunch. Plenty of spaces in the car park

Waited a long time for food. Maybe due to the time we booked it for a lot of the food had run out. In a party of 4, 3 had roast dinner and the food was sparse. The roast potatoes were at best unpleasant it appeared they had been cooked hours ago and were the last ones left. I will eat here again although not for a Sunday roast.

Family of 5, opted for the roast but was left disappointed. Vegetables were grey & overcooked, 1 slice of thin fatty meat which they did change. Just wasn’t very nice sadly. The children’s fish & chips & chicken & chips were dry. The sundaes went down well though. A real shame as had a nice feel. Wish there was more to do for older kids, like a outdoor slide/climbing apparatus. The soft play is perfect for toddlers.

Woefully unprepared for a busy fathers day - goodness knows how you are going to manage the lunchtime rush when we waited 45 minutes for breakfast. This could have been made easier by an apology, order update, drinks refresh but all of these things had to be chased - including condiments!!! Such a shame as I really wanted to love this place

Food was nice, excellent staff, singer good but was disappointed as website advertised 2 rooms of music which they never had so once singer left it died. We was looking forward to a dance - we would have gone elsewhere had we known. Although we were told we could dance - not really a dance floor and music not dance music.
