The food was amazing. Huge outdoor seating area with playground for the children and also Dog friendly. The only negative was that they don't do cocktails, which would be great in the summer months with the outdoor bar. Other than that, 10/10.
This place has been recommended so many times for it's outdoor play area and Sunday lunches but we had been yet to try it. We can see why it's so recommended! Great outdoor play area for children, dog friendly. Large outdoor bar. A lot of thought has gone in to what customers want. Also great reasonable prices. We only ordered chips but they were skin on and super tasty. We'll be back again!
Just been her for a carvery and by far more than dissatisfied, watery cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes made weeks in advance soft and mushy, cheap cut if roast beef boiled till its tender really customers out there go to the island pool by far better choice on veg and superior potato's and meat . And cheaper!!!! Cheese board I had for dessert was worth more than the roast and better flavour, I would nit recommend this meal ti anyone nor to friends and family GO TO THE ISLAND POOL INSTEAD better value and fuller flavour food.
Been a couple of times now. Food is always absolutely lovely and reasonably priced. Kids eat free in half term which is nice. Bouncy castle £2 ALL DAY. Full menu but also street food outside which looks amazing too. Lovely play area/field for the kids to burn energy with a covered marquee. Already can't wait to go back.
Was absolutely amazing. Paid for a buffet which was better than we expected. Not sure why I expected anything less woth these reviews, guess I was just nervous about feeding everyone. But none the less, manager and staff pulled out a marvelous spread, thank you so much you gave my nan a special spectacular send off. Would 100% recommend, although I think they all deserve a restful holiday soon as. 😉
Absolutely love this pub. The playground for the kids is amazing. The street food is gorgeous and very reasonably priced. Loaded fries topped with pulled pork cheese and BBQ sauce was more than enough for one person. Good selection of drinks. Lovely place to visit.
Staff were warm and welcoming despite it being a very busy sunny Saturday. Food was sensational we chose to eat inside then enjoyed the beer garden after. Outdoor bar was very handy. I don’t know another pub in the area that gets as crazy busy as this and it’s a testament to the new management and their hard work turning this place around. We ended up spending 6 hours here enjoying the sun sinking a few ciders The whole team seemed to work tirelessly, I don’t know how they keep up with such high volumes of people and yet food standards and servers smiles don’t seem to slip. From time to time there was a slight delay clearing tables outside but there must be 50 benches and back in my day customers popping your crisp packets in the bin and glasses on the bar on the way out was the done thing.
We will be back again this week (and probably again the week after) KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
In short 10/10 - food/staff/pricing/location
Staff were really friendly and knowledgeable,(Sheridan and wendy) there's a play area for kids, not sure how good I didn't have any youngsters with me. Nice outside area where I sat to eat my lunch with great views of the country side.
Was approached by 2 lovely gents in the car park and we were having a chat about how welcoming the pub is with a brilliant local atmosphere.
The food blew me away, I had belly pork with fondant potatoes, apples and onions - cooked to perfection.
I also had cheesy chips as a side (I was feeling greedy) and whilst it's hard to get cheesy chips wrong it's difficult to get them this good. Food 10/10.
Will definitely visit this establishment again.
Very friendly with excellent service, food was freshly cooked and I couldn't fault it.
The pub has been reorganised and smartened and up and is very clean with a good and friendly atmosphere.
I went with six of my old work colleagues and we will certainly be returning.
My husband booked the back room for my 30th birthday party. The room itself was wonderful: light, well-decorated and plenty of room for a large gathering. The food was prepared and presented brilliantly (see pics!). Everything was fresh and delicious, particularly the scotch eggs! Everyone had a great time. Thank you to all the staff for making my birthday special!
I recently went a couple of weeks ago and it's my new favorite place. The food is awesome and different from the normal menu in other pubs . A real gem. The staff are nice and the chef's are talented I've added a picture of the Tapas I had many thanks for reading my review. I would book if your going just to save disappointment.
I met the owners today, as guests of the restaurant I manage. They were lovely people! So I took my partner and baby for a visit to their pub straight after my shift to have a look.
On first glance, the decor and furnishings were a bit worn and dated, but it was clear that the first stages of refurbishment were focused on the right key areas. The toilets and kids play area were new and tidy. You could see people working on the outside areas too, making improvements.
The smell coming from the food in the kitchen was incredible as well! The grounds were huge and packed with activities, with great views.
The beer was well looked after and tasted great, reasonably priced too. Overall, it’s seems like this pub is on the right path to achieving great things. Definitely somewhere I will keep visiting and enjoy supporting. Can’t wait to try the food!
Perfect food the chef made us think about what have we been missing The Old Wagon and Horses great food with a good selection of dishes, we are going to book again Yippee 😋
Went for Sunday Lunch+ I have to admit it was wonderful. It was not a carvery that day but to be honest having it plated up+ bought out with delicious roast veg+cauliflower cheese was better. I even learned what BGT was that day too🤣🤣Service was great we will be back.
Fab carvery. Interesting veg, not the usual peas carrot cabbage. Meat cooked to perfection. Great service and smaller portion for older people. One criticism. Take the tables out and give them a good scrub,they are rather sticky.
Amazing carvery easily best around.
Wide selection of veg cooked to perfection.
We will definitely be going back soon

First visit for family lunch. Meals reasonably priced and tasty. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Our grandchildren loved the play area outside. Weather hampered this a little, but will return on a nice day so grandchildren cand have a good play.
First time here for ages and it's brilliant. Great quality food and portions, friendly staff and a good play area for the kids. Will be back again soon.
