   We went to have a roast dinner around 3pm, ordering was very fast and drinks delivered quickly, when the food came, the veg came out to share between 2, I personally think that it was not enough veg for everyone, the pork was OK but when we tried to cut the chicken and it was rubbery and very tough and basically inedible. The chicken tasted like it was cooked and then kept hot for hours. When we called the server over we explained that the chicken was not good and asked if we could get another portion of chicken. The server came out 5 minutes later with a portion of chicken and it was exactly the same, I gave up with the chicken and also the roast potatoes as they were quite hard. No one came to check if our replacement chicken was okay and after everyone finished their food (minus the chicken ) we waited for someone to clear so we could bring up the issue again but waited over 15 minutes before we pulled someone over, the servers were lovely and understanding but originally offered 10% off but we felt that really wasn't enough as I only ate some veg, another server came over and we agreed that my meal would be free due to me just eating the veg but my daughter who had the chicken as well would pay full price as she ate everything but the chicken. We agreed to pay minus the one meal and when leaving the server said that if we were to return, she suggested coming earlier so it is freshly cooked, meaning my earlier observation of the chicken just being kept warm was right. I don't think we will return and just a note to the view, please do not serve food after a certain time if the quality of food is not to a good standard.

   We went for Sunday lunch which was served swiftly but the food could have been much hotter as it was only luke warm. The beef and pork were delicious but we weren’t too sure about the potatoes being “roasted” ones. The Eaton Mess had more cream than meringue so it was a little disappointing.

   Food was delicious and hot BUT the service was appalling - slow, got orders wrong and charged us someone elses' check. Because its in an open room the noise level was high and it wasn't even full, making for an unpleasant experience. They need more staff, staff focussed on one customer at a time, focussed on the customers and not their mates.

   I took my fiancé for breakfast on the 24th of May at 9am for her birthday which was supposed to be a nice start to her day. We ordered our food at 9:05. Our drinks came out 10 minutes later. That's OK. Got to 10am and nobody had come over to us and no food was brought over. The waitress had been sat on the sofa on her mobile this whole time but we didn't want to be rude and chase her up. Eventually though I had to say something. I had asked where our order was to which she said she will go chase it up. She came out to our table still with no food and explained they were having trouble with the ovens apparently due to the workmen tripping the fuses out??? I gave it 10 more minutes but by this point it was now 10:15 and we had to leave because my fiancé had to start work at 10:30. I went to inform the waitress but couldn't see any staff anywhere. A couple if minutes later she came through the kitchen/bar door with our food but at the point it was too late. I told her we had to leave and she just apologised and said we didn't have to pay our drinks or meal. Really disappointed after looking forward to a lovely breakfast for my fiancé's birthday.

    We went for Sunday roast which, when it eventually arrived, was beautiful. Service was a bit slow but they were aware of it and did their upmost to rectify it and apologise with a nice gesture. We left happy and with full tums!

    We arrived at opening time and staff were welcoming and helpful. Ordered food and it was nice. Food came and was very tasty. Pizzas were fresh and cooked really well. By the time we finished our meal, football was on both large tvs and bar/tables was filled with young lads shouting and we couldn't hear ourselves talk so left as soon as we had eaten. Such a shame there is no where people can eat inside if they want to have a quiet evening with friends or family.

    Only had nachos and dirty fries so hard to judge food, however there was a bit too much runny cheese sauce-due to this the chips and nachos were a bit soft. The atmosphere and service was amazing 🤩

    Lovely looking place, done out really nice. Really nice and clean. Only let downs were: ordered a mocktail, they had no strawberry for it, so had to have passionfruit, I ordered a chicken burger they sent out a beef burger so I had to have it returned. Portion sizes were okay, not as good as I expected. Extremely loud inside and out, difficult to hold a conversation. Two of our table ordered the same pizza but one had no pulled pork and loads of beef and the other had no beef and loads of pulled pork. My friend wanted cocktails and was told she could only have 2 of the same she couldn’t mix and match. I hope that as time goes on these little things iron themselves out.

    Fantastic food and setting, only downside was a quiet meal for two or, a steak and wine romantic dinner, is in the same space as pub drinkers cheering or cussing at the football on the big screens! Needs to separate the 2 types of customers somehow so everyone gets the best experience from this wonderful venue

    Well decorated and staff very friendly. Very slow service, food took a while to come and desserts about 30min. Staff very apologetic must have had sorry 4/5 times which is not there fault but a 2 course lunch took should take 1 hour but instead nearly 2 hours. Staff need guidance and they will be fine. It’s new and will try again but make sure we plan a longer stay incase. Not just us but a few comments saying the same. Food was ok and good portions but not the hottest. Like to see my food all come together but instead in bits, so had our main and a few minutes later the veg came so main cold by then.

    The food was very slow to come out but it tasted ok. My nieces beef burger was dry and tasteless. My pulled pork loaded fries were ok but needed to add seasoning. I didn’t like the cheese sauce much. The food wasn’t wow like the venue. Staff were pleasant. I won’t be returning for a while until they sort out their teething issues. But happy to try again at a later date.

    Slow service, had to wait 30 minutes from arriving at our booked slot of 10.30am before we could place our food order. Food was great as always. Had to wait in a long queue to pay for our meal.

    Great venue for lunch with lovely view of the White Horse. Good food smallish portions. Negatives was smoking allowed at outside tables, not pleasant when people are eating! Staff were friendly, it was busy with a long wait for food service. Noisy ambiance with grass cutting in the background near the outdoor dining area. Couldn’t this have been done before it opened? Could have been a nice relaxing lunch with wonderful views, but was too noisy to chat and distracting to be totally enjoyable.

    First time visiting the venue. Decor is very modern, beautiful comfortable furniture. Plenty of outdoor seating for the warmer days. Menu is limited, reasonable priced, good quality food. Service was efficient and all staff were pleasant and helpful.

    Sunday roast was excellent - good variety of vegetables and good size portion, however we did feel that the desserts were over priced

    Service was really good. Can’t fault the staff. Unfortunately the food wasn’t as good as we thought it would be. Some elements cold. Cocktails weren’t great either. Was very noisy but there was a party in so can’t complain about that. Done a great job with refurbishment and will still visit but lower our expectations.
