We have spent many years celebrating family birthday etc at this pub but unfortunately the last 3 times we visited everything has gone downhill. Over 3 visits they ran out of foods i.e no cream, no beef, no horseradish, many wines not available etc It would be great if the staff could let us know before ordering what food is not available. The food is not of a great standard any more and very overpriced (small spoon of mash, small spoon of red cabbage, smallest pot of gravy ever and a home made pie £17.95) Do not visit after 4pm as you will be disappointed with how many dishes are off the menu - its seems that management are not ordering the correct amount of food Very disappointing and will not be going back Such a shame as we had many a good time at this pub when the food was excellent

Nice , peaceful location on a lake . Food was excellent with a good selection of dishes and beers. Service was good and staff friendly. Would definitely go back , probably in the summer as it will be nice looking out over the lake with a cold beer. Did find it a tad expensive

Disappointing 😞. Not our usual experience of this place. The bacon was almost entirely fat with no actual meat. The sausages were barely cooked - one had zero browning on it - maybe pre-cooked and just warmed through in the microwave? The sourdough toast was warm but again had no browning on either serving. Just warm, dry bread. One of our coffees was served up in a small (espresso?) cup, was a latte rather than a flat white. We've been before, so know what to expect. One pot of beans was only half full. Admittedly, the restaurant was slightly busier than usual and you could see they were working on getting things ready for their lunchtime guests but it wasn't that busy! We struggled to get the attention of our waitress to bring this up. The glass of water I asked for never appeared. We had to ask another member of staff who was some way off if we could pay, having sat there for fifteen minutes with the bill. God knows why we didn't challenge the service charge on this occasion because it really wasn't deserved.

Sunday roast. Had the turkey roast, everything was tasty perfectly cooked. Dessert was a sticky toffee pudding nice portion size, and the sauce was nice with a treacle flavour, and avoided being too sweet. Service was great and staff were friendly and professional, if I had anything to say, it would be the panelling on the outside, put in during COVID times to serve outside, but for me it takes away the magic of being directly next to the lake like it used to have, as it's now just plastic windows. Overall. Though top marks for food, service and atmosphere in general. 🙃

This place looked so nice, but it quickly went downhill as we arrived. No one was Will to sit anyone down at a table when we got there. Was a queue of a couple of families.. the staff were all at the bar chatting. A team huddle at 19:30 on a Friday evening? Then later a group of kids came in, they got served water 3 times in the time it took anyone to realise that there were actual paying customers wanting to order. This was after one couple getting up and speaking to the bar staff… Eventually everyone gave up, one family didn’t even order food and left. Genuinely wish I had done the same, the food was awful. Didn’t even get a change to order desert as no one was coming to any of the tables to take orders. Never been for a pub dinner where all the guest start talking to each other about the poor service across tables and the staff just not giving a toss. Perhaps management had annoyed them and they decided not to work?? Either way, this place is one to avoid at all costs.
