ABSOLUTELY FAB! Came here for a delicious Sunday Roast. Loads of vegetables. Cauliflower Cheese as standard! Possibly the best Yorkshire Pudding I've ever had (huge, mildly crispy on top, squidgy in the middle). Gorgeous building (16th Century I believe?) vintage but clean and well looked after. Gorgeous twinkly lights throughout. Lovely staff. We hadn't booked but a member of staff went to check if we could squeeze in before a booking and we could! Very reasonable prices too!
Lovely, delicious (see photos!). We started with the charcuterie platter, which was very good. Then entrees, which were also very good. We got the Nduya Linguini, the White Ragu Tagliatelle, and the Chicken Pizza. We were very happy with all of them.
Stumbled across this lovely pub while taking mum and gf out for the day. This was my Bulgarian girlfriend's first Sunday roast so I was determined to make sure it was a good one, and we weren't disappointed. Food/beer was delicious, service was outstanding and the atmosphere was wonderful. Highly recommended.
Was told by a glum lady in a shop that you can't get a decent pub dinner in Hay. They were wrong. Genuinely lovely roast dinner in front of an open fire. Make sure you order the extra Yorkshire pudding, you're worth it.
Popped in for a drink after a walk by the river, dog friendly and nice atmosphere. Booked for Sunday lunch as food coming out looked lovely.
Fabulous service and recommendations from Nicole, our waiter. The food was delicious, and the service made us feel at home! Definitely recommend!
Really lovely staff, some good beers. Plenty of room inside and out. The building history is phenomenal. The only things that let it down slightly was the fairly unsympathetic furniture throughout and a fairly narrow selection of beers.
We will be back to try the food!
Amazing 16th century construction visible inside this traditional pub. Food was good, deducted a star because nobody wants their food on a slate, and a little overpriced, but it's Hay price I guess. Very good pizza, excellent staff.
Great place with beautiful old beams and a lovely old world feel. We had a very tasty Sunday roast which was hot, plentiful and really delicious. The service was very friendly when we arrived although the booking system was not the best. We placed a booking online confirmed over the phone..so far, so good....then when we arrived all our requests were ignored, we were put on another person's table and it caused a bit of upset which detracted from the lovely place and food. Probably a one off but would be good to coordinate emails, phone and staff verbal booking with a better system. Food was lush though.
Fantastic little pub with great atmosphere, ales and staff. The building itself is superb and almost feels like a museum exhibit in places. Genuine 1600's woodwork and lath & plaster adorns the stairs to the first floor where there are more tables available among the timber roof beams. Prices are very reasonable and comparing this pub to others in Hay, I really can't understand why this isn't rated as No. 1.
The epitome of a cosy pub, with excellent service and delicious food. The team were incredibly efficient and attentive, and I would happily sit and eat an entire bowl of the mashed potatoes, they were truly that delicious. Would rate a 6 if we could, definitely recommend.
The food was great. The portion sizes were good. I had the Seafood Tagliatelle. I was very good, as was my friends pizza. The base was perfect. They didn't hang around. Food was served within 20 mins.
After finishing a stretch of the Offas Dyke, my mother and I fell into this pub during the festival. It felt like refuge from the business of the festival with its relaxed atmosphere.
I was given great drink recommendations and very much enjoyed sitting out in the yard under canopy. We came back for food that evening, which was delicious. Excellent service, very welcoming and great quality food and drink. Old interesting building to boot!
Had the Rodfather pizza, a margarita and a pasta dish. Between us and all 3 were outstanding. Quick service and all the young bar staff were super helpful and friendly. Highly recommended for pizza. Best I’ve had in ages.
Really friendly staff, great authentic Italian food and a lovely cosy setting. We had our 7 month old baby with us and the staff were both helpful and accommodating. Thoroughly recommend this place!
They do a fantastic job. A very beautiful, very clean place.
The atmosphere is great and the staff really nice.
I’ll be back.
Great to see this place open again.
We were a large group of approximately 26 people. The staff were very organised and got all our food out quite quickly.
The menu is Italian, pizzas, pasta, and a grill selection. All well executed and nicely presented.
For me the best bit was a good selection of low sugar soft drinks. Prices spot on. For too long non alcoholic beverages have been way too expensive.
I will definitely return.
