Very disappointed we have been regulars in this pub since it opened. We meet there every Friday at 8 and there can be up to 10 of us, we stay at least two hours. We are aged 66 to 75. Tonight after leaving to go to the pub next door we were refused entry at 12.25, the bar is open till1. The new doorman just refused to let us in. No real reason given. We want to know what is going on. If the rules have changed then we should have been told before we left earlier in the evening. It looks like we will have to take our custom elsewhere in future, unless someone with some common sense gets this sorted.
First time we have been in here and it was excellent. Fantastic food, value for money and lovely relaxing atmosphere. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be going back regularly!
Not the largest pub I've visited out of 389 in the JDW chain. Nicely decorated, including an impressive fireplace; small rear garden, and a good selection of ales. I had a Vanilla Mild, pizza with extra chillis and a hot chocolate for around £15. Pleasant service and polite clientele, creating a welcoming atmosphere. It's worth a visit if you're in the area or ticking off 'Spoons
I haven't been to the Thomas Burke for about 7 years, because the last time I was there it was not a pleasant place to spend any time and certainly not whilst in company with my wife!! Too many idiots and zero control!! Yesterday however, I was very pleasantly surprised to find the place has changed so much and so much for the better!! The surroundings are clean and bright. The carpets, tables and chairs are clean and fresh, not piled high with plates and glasses; and the clientele were happy and enjoying a "quiet" drink! On the subject of drinks, the wide selection of beers on tap is excellent, with some really nice craft beers and real ales as well as a good selection of lagers and cider. And the prices are ridiculous!! Averaging only about £2.50 a pint!! The "Full Whack" 6% abv was sublime! There's also a wide range of wines and spirits available and the staff are friendly and very helpful. Rachel, was particularly welcoming and watching her and the team working, it's no wonder the place is in such good shape. We didn't eat, but there is food available and this looked decent standard pub grub and looked and smelled great! All in all a wonderful surprise return! I will definitely be going back soon! Well worth a visit!!
Had a lovely Jalfrezi curry with Naan and freshly made poppadoms. ALSO a mixed grill. Excellent and good value for money with a free double brandy. Atmosphere was calm but with a slight buzz about it. Good mix of company. Excellent surroundings and the staff are fabulous, courteous, helpful and hardworking.
