There is plenty of parking.
The pub itself is nice with lots of room between the tables.
The staff were very friendly and couldn't fault the service.
There is a wide menu with plenty of choice. Prices offer good value for money.
The food was nice, presented well and reasonable portions.
Haven't visited for over a year. We used to take my Mum for lunch. Still the same friendly atmosphere. One area was quite full with a group of ladies. The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was just as good as I remember. As wide selection of good quality food at very reasonable prices. Ample parking with wheelchair/pushchair access to almost all areas.
A pity we don't have the need to be in this area on a regular basis anymore but will continue to visit when we are.
Lovely pub went in for early tea Lovely clean and modern will visit again, they also do entertainment at certain times of the month looked like a good night out.
Booked a table for 6 for a birthday celebration. Pub was super busy but a really lovely atmosphere. Staff were really friendly and helpful. We liked the football on the screens and we had a fab table by the kitchen. Really comfy. Cool toilets with themed doors - nice and clean. Food was great. Plenty of parking. Can’t fault anything.
We’ve been to the Droppingwell many times over the last 10 years and unfortunately last night was the worst food we’ve ever had there.
Although the food arrived piping hot (almost too hot), the taste was not good. My boyfriend had a mixed grill. Most of the meat on the plate was dry and he needed ketchup to make the meat edible and add some moisture. I had the chicken trio burger. The coated chicken pieces were really nice but it was let down by the plain chicken which was again dry. The chips are tasteless. To be honest we’ve had better quality meals in Wetherspoons which is known for being a cheap eat. My boyfriend said this was the worst mixed grill he’s had in a long time. He does have his steak well done but this one was beyond well done. Apple pie was good. The chocolate fondant is not a chocolate fondant, there was no liquid, gooey centre. It was basically a chocolate sponge. I was also disappointed they’d run out of the Bailey’s & toffee cheesecake when it’s a main menu item.
When you have The Barley and The Mill Dam near by taking the time to cook food fresh and doing home cooked chips, The Droppingwell falls really short. I’d rather wait longer for a good quality meal. There is no comparison against the other pubs in the local area and we probably won’t eat here again which is really disappointing.
Staff, service, and the atmosphere were brilliant. The Taylor Swift/Katy Perry tribute was amazing. I would happily go back for a drink and the entertainment but not for the food.
A very popular local pub.
On entering the pub has a welcoming feel, it's very clean and fresh. The bar staff are friendly and efficient.
There was a good selection of beers and Lagers. I had a few cracking pints of Farmers Blonde.
I really must return here and have a meal.
They have live tribute bands and acts for all ages and tastes and even some that might appeal to the wrinkles.
Very nice Sunday dinner came super fast service was polite but bit of a bind having to pay for food and drinks as you order it from the till no table service offered must be only pub I know not offering a tab to your table number
We came here for lunch as a little treat, and it was absolutely lovely! The staff were very welcoming and friendly, we got our food fast and Marie who served me at the bar was so lovely! Overall we all felt very comfortable! We will definitely return😊
Great food lively menu great table service lovely welcoming service with the bar staff too could not do enough 10 out of 10
I have no recollection of giving the one-star recommendation. The "Dropping Well" has always provided us with excellent service and delicious food. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a five-star experience.
Really enjoyed the food and all the staff are helpful.
Food excellent service excellent
You won't be disappointed
