Our first time there. Super food, sirloins for mains, eton mess for pud. Cracking Rioja. Special thanks to Cara and Kyle for looking after us.Lovely evening and certainly will go again. A few noisy small children but it's a family place. They make noise!

Lovely setting & great food & friendly staff Slight shame that my vegetarian daughter ordered a margarita pizza but was handed a pepperoni pizza🤔. We had to ask for our onion rings which had been ordered. Odd as the restaurant didn’t appear to be very busy & we had the same server as a week ago who was great.

The lunchtime menu was a little limited for my taste so ended up having a jacket potato as some choices were off the menu. It was OK but the menu needs a re-vamp.

The food and service were lovely. We also really enjoyed the live entertainment Aphrodites, a vivacious and talented act which certainly enhanced our evening. A thoroughly satisfying experience.

We went early evening on a Wednesday so the restaurant part was quiet, which suited us. The service was good and the four different dishes we had were all very nice. We have been here before and always enjoyed a nice meal and good service. I would recommend anyone to give the Old Thatch a try. It’s a nice pub too!!!

We have used the Old Thatch a lot over many years as we live very close and were impressed that it is back up to standard again after some troubled times. The food was good quality but we went on a busy day (Fathers Day) so the carvery had sold out by the evening. The service was excellent and our guest that we took really liked the place. We will be back to try again.

Good menu, but nothing really for bigger kids. The kids menu was aimed at very young children, my 11yo struggled to find something she wanted. But the service was very good. And a nice atmosphere at The Thatch

We found the soup was luke warm and all the main courses were overdone. So much so that my mum thought that it was pastry on top of her lasagne instead of pasta. We also found the restaurant very draughty.

We went with friends to celebrate my wife’s birthday and we had a very enjoyable time. I sent an email the day prior to our visit requesting a birthday cake. I enquired on arrival, as I had not had a reply, and it was discovered that the email had Ben received but with ‘no text’. That was not a problem, the manager went out to a local bakery and purchased a birthday cake for me and saved the day. You do not get that everywhere, if at all. This was our first visit but will certainly not be our last. Thank you a million.

Excellent service and very good food.Good presentation. At 21.00h live music started.Where we were sitting it was fine but when we had to go across the pub to go out it was deafening. Good value for money.
