Amazing Service from Fran and the team there at the gate. Beautiful interior, give you that traditional pub vibe. Emil does a fantastic job with the food there. Keep it up Team Gate
The soft drink prices were not displayed on the paper menu which would have been helpful. Food we ordered was very good value for money. Pleasant staff. Haddock & chips could have had a better seasoned batter, Cheeseburger was good with the accompanying burger sauce otherwise a little dry.
Very nice and cozy place to relax and enjoy delicious food. Good range of beers too! Will be back 👍
This experience was terrible. After all these years of attending every boxing day, I am sad to say I will never attend again. I come to the gate every year on Boxing day with Family who live far away. There are usually at least 10people attending. It’s our yearly chance to catch up and it means a lot to us. This year I was very unwell and I booked online without checking the menu. We come every year so why would we need to check the menu right? So I went ahead, paid the £100 deposit and confirmed the time slot of 4pm-6pm and was told the pub would close at 10.30pm so we would have lots of time with family to sit in the bar and chat after the meal. For some extremely strange reason the Turkey dinner had been removed from the boxing day menu! We literally only go out for dinner to have the Turkey dinner because we do not cook Christmas dinner at home. I have multiple health conditions and am registered disabled so cooking something like a roast dinner is impossible for me. We were so upset about this but had no time to organise anything else and so we went ahead. When we came for our meal the food quality was absolutely awful, a lot of what we got was inedible. Everything was over cooked, dry and just generally very poor. The price increase this year was approximately £8 more per person! We would not expect a decline in the food quality with a price increase like this! When we were eating our final course, staff began to stare at us, looking at their watches, walking around us and trying to take glasses and plates when we had not finished with them. My dad went to the bar and asked for coffee and was told there was no more coffee and that the coffee machine was switched off and wouldn't be switched back on again. I asked why everybody was acting like they wanted us to leave when the manager had told me it was at 10.30pm close and I had booked a 2hour 4-6pm slot. The staff told me that they had changed the opening times and had closed at 5.30pm. I checked the website and it still said 10.30pm closing as specifically said ‘boxing day hours’. Our whole Christmas experience was ruined, family travelled hundreds of miles to see us for a dry, over cooked meal which was not their menu choice, no coffee and to be thrown out and sent home cutting valuable time in half with important family members. I am so upset about this entire experience, Christmas ruined!
3 of us ladies went out for a catch-up on Friday night. I've eaten many times here, my 2 friends hadn't been at all . We were all overjoyed we chose here as the service was spot on... Younger staff members have obviously been trained well, very polite , efficient and helpful. The food came out quickly, was piping hot, presented well and tasted amazing . The best I've ever had there. We all had mushrooms starter, gammon main and apple crumble desert. All cooked to perfection. I complimented the manager who said the chefs are new, and all youngsters as well. Well done to the manager for teaching our younger guys the best practice in hospitality, and giving them the chance to shine. You've got a great team there. We all came away still amazed at how good this meal, pub and staff were. Reasonably priced in this day and age, £15. 79 for a 3 Course set Meal of this quality is unbelievable. Thanks guys, we'll be back even more 👍
