"Where to start . . . Clues were there tucked away in the bizzare spelling mistakes on the menu but I persevered going for a prawn cocktail starter and the grilled salmon as a main, as those listings were free of the spelling mistakes which put me off the Balognesec Pasta Homemad Cilli. The prawn cocktail starter was ridiculously awful. Four leaves of wilted lettuce with a blob of some sort of redish sauce contained eight tiny cardboard like stale pieces of inedible material. They may well had been potential prawns at some point but these quarter inch offerings were no doubt the cheapest available to the pub but sadly unlike any food offerings I 've previously encountered. I felt awkward having to complain but the delightful girl behind the bar apologised profusely, informing me that they had a new chef and asked if I 'd like an alternative starter. I went for the breaded mushrooms, she promised a few extra to compensate for my dismay. Fair enough. She returned with seven mushrooms and a little paper pot with some not very garlicy maionaise contained. This was at least edible. Then came a plate with a two inch long serving of a leather based piece of something that may have been fish based at some point but had been dried out and shrunk by over enthusiastic grilling, ten dried and wrinkly new potatoes and a spoonful of dried out peas. No sign of the drizzle of garlic butter or the broccoli. For the first time in my life I sent the food back. It was an embarrassment for both myself and the innocent girl behind the bar. So come for a drink but consider your options if you need to eat as the local area is brimming with places that offer better, or at least edible food."

"Appalling!!! Down from Birmingham for birthday weekend and decided to eat here as reviews looked good. On arrival, the waitress told us to firstly order drinks before being seated after asking if we could just sit down to wat as hungry she told us we must pay at bar for the buffet first (never have I paid for food before eating it and I will not make this mistake agsin) we did and sat down. The starter selection was of poor choice, and once seated to eat the food was luke warm. When we went up for the main which I thought would be abit warmer due to curry 's being available the selection of food on offer was again very miminal. I am also vegetarian and apart from 2 mushroom options (I don 't like myshrooms) I decided to raise my issues with the waitress who said I would need to speak to the manager. The manager came to the table and did not appreciate the concerns I raised with him over the food but said he would accommodate me and make something out back. I requested fried rice and vegetable curry, what came to the table was boiled rice that felt like yesterday 's food and a bowl of vegetable curry which I 'm sure was just vegetables taken from the buffet and then added to curry sauce and again was luke warm in temperature. I was so unhappy I raised my concerns with the manager, when asking for a refund his response was 'well you 've been watched going to the buffet several times I absolutely had not, I had a small plate of the luke warm starters and then couldn 't find anything at the mains hence why I originally complained. He told me that he had accommodated me which again he had not again luke warm unfried rice with thrown together curry. And that the tills were locked so would not be issuing a refund but food and drinks were still being paid for. His attitude was so poor. My boyfriend asked if he could just refund my food as this was a birthday meal that had been spoiled (not sure how my boyfriend managed to eat a few platefuls of the food he didn 't want to make a fuss and was just hungry) and the manager was just not having it. I told him poor his customer service skills were and that I would be writing a poor review he told me to simply 'go on then '. The reason I am so passionate about leaving my reviews about this poor place is that later on that night I vomited all of the vegetable curry up (I am early pregnant also) I dread to think what they did to my 'specially made food out the back '. My I add that my boyfriend who managed to eat a few platefuls of food felt fine. I have never complained about anywhere I 've eaten out but this place deserves a special mention and I just hope people do not waste their money here!! I have also contacted food standard agency regarding the matter"

"We popped in for a light lunch on a Friday just before 1pm. 2 out of 3 of the party were after a soft drink, which were both advertised on the board behind the till. Unfortunately, these were both out of stock. One of us ordered a cup of tea and we were shocked to note the price, which was the same as a cup of coffee. No extra hot water was provided until asked and so a very small pot of tea is provided for the price to begin with. During our visit, the tea cup was accidently knocked, resulting in a spillage. The gentleman helped us to it clear up, however we were not offered a new tea cup or saucer and so had to use a saucer full of tea, until the lady noted and gave us paper towels to soak up the split tea on the saucer. We all wanted to order a panini for lunch, but were told these were all sold out by 1pm (on a busy Friday lunchtime). We all opted for toasted sandwiches instead, however we had to wait around 20-25 minutes for 3x toasted sandwiches and unfortunately they were very basic. The bread was just about toasted, the tomato chucks were far to big for the small sandwich, which meant some bread was soggy and the onion slices were huge and unedable as a result. The tuna was also not mixed with any mayo, so with cheese, it was rather dry. The side salad was very basic with no salad dressing and they all came out looking different on the 3x plates. For the price of £9 each, they didn't even come with crisps. We understand the price of everything has increased dramatically and wouldn't mind paying £9, if what was provided was of good quality and on par with what is served elsewhere. At the end of our lunch, we were not asked if everything was OK and I wonder if that was because the waiting staff knew it wasn't?"

"This is the second time I've been to this branch and it never ceases to disappoint. Grandsons 11th birthday treat. Can't book a table during the Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday 50% off days. Not a big problem as we arrived in good time. Staff not warm and welcoming. There were 4 of us and we were asked a few times by the same person if we wanted a table for four of us. The food took a long time to arrive. Grandsons ice cream cane. The tea and coffee ordered arrived 10 minutes later. This happened the last time we came last year. Nothing seems to arrive all at once, you think you're order has been forgotten. The floor beneath the counter was noticeably dirty. The napkins that the Cutlery was wrapped in was actually dirty, with things stuck to them from someone else's order. The worst was the loo. The wall beneath the hand drier was really filthy and the sink hadn't been cleaned for a while by the look of it. I mentioned this to the staff at the till. (Some wearing masks some with masks beneath their noses, some wearing them like a chin strap) the hand drier in the mens loos didn't work. Bearing in mind we are in the middle of a pandemic where cleanliness ought to be a priority, this was sadly lacking. If that's what's on show it makes me wonder what is hidden behind the counter. Better staff training and cleanliness of the premises would be a good start. Also, paper menus to avoid cross contamination may be something they could consider too. Could be amazing but just isn't."

"Old fashioned real country pub with lovely, hardworking staff and a good vibe. Plenty of on-site parking. Service was rather slow but they were busy and all staff working flat out to please customers. Draught beers and ciders very good Loved the Haze cider.Great pint. The roast chicken dinners were excellent with the exception of the gravy which was really watery. A good gravy is a key ingredient to a Sunday roast. Please sort this out Charging extra for Yorkshire puddings seemed unnecessary Give everybody one, then charge for additional ones if people want more. We have never eaten out and not has a Yorkshire pudding included with a roast dinner. Cauliflower cheese was extra too. But this has become the norm. The liver and onions with mashed potatoes was a masterpiece Amazing thick tasty gravy with this great traditional dish. The ribeye steak was cooked medium, not medium rare as requested. The jacket potato was good. It had come from the oven not the microwave I’m pleased to say. The homemade peppercorn sauce was thin, watery and tasteless. I sent it back as it wouldn’t coat the steak as it was so thin. This was replaced with an identical jug of inedible watery sauce, unfortunately, which couldn’t be eaten. So the most expensive main course on the menu was a real disappointment and can’t be recommended, but the other meals were delicious and good sized portions representing value for money. The only home made dessert was the apple and raspberry crumble, which 3 of us chose. This was good and plentiful. The passion fruit cheesecake was enjoyed too. Definitely worth trying the Failand Inn if you haven’t eaten there before."
