"We had a nice meal at this restaurant and actually were saying how much we liked the restaurant until we recieved the bill which had a mistake on it. We ordered a bottle of wine but were given the wrong one,no problem with that and they changed to another one. Then when we got the bill the wine we ordered cost £24 but we were billed £30,we asked the waitress to please amend by £6 and she said ok and went to speak to managment. George returned ,suppose he was assisant manager and said he can’t refund the £6 as we had drank the £30 bottle we said no it’s £24 on the menu ,he proceeded to show us it was £30 and this is when we relised that they had actually given us a £30 bottle of wine which wasn’t the one we asked for! Seriously can you believe they got our order wrong not once but twice! Yes I know it’s only £6 but it was the way George proceeded to argue and became obnoxious and arrogant. They made the mistake not us! He then went to refer to his manager again who was hiding and came back again to say no refund. Seriously! The manager should have come out and seen us out of respect.Disgraceful behaviour,This completely ruined what had been a nice evening and we left disappointed and upset. We felt bad not leaving the lady waitress a tip as she was lovely but the way George and the No balls manager treated us was totally unexpectable and we left! So overall food nice but George and managerment team poor! Shame coz we would have left a big tip"

"Hate doing this but… We went here for a meal to celebrate two birthdays, o really wish we hadn’t. I’m aware the pub is under new management but even so. Firstly we had to wait ages to be seated as there was only one person...behind the bar and who didn’t really appear to know what he was doing so we found a table ourselves. Waited a while for a menu to arrive as there was only one (yes only one in the entire pub) and someone else was looking at it. I chose Lasagne and ages later I was told they had ran out so chose the chilli as there was literally nothing else on the menu I ate. My vegetarian partner had to have fish and chips as there was no veggie option. Limited choice in starters meant we couldn't have one of those, any of us. My meal was underwhelming to say the least, more beans than mince and everything was watery and grey, the rice was hard so ate very little. Waited ages for the table to be cleared and to be offered dessert but that never happened so not sure if they don’t do dessert or we were forgotten yet again. Such a disappointment as this used to be my sons favourite place for a bar meal with his friends so he chose here to celebrate his and my birthdays. To be truthful I wish we had gone to McDonald’s which is where my granddaughter wanted to go! At least she wouldn’t have been bored waiting. Hopefully things will improve with time but at the present I wouldn’t recommend. Sorry"
