"Based on the Bower inn’s website, my husband and I decided to book a table for dinner Sunday at 7:30pm. Based on the description of the pub’s passion for good food, local sourcing of ingredients and menu we we’re looking forward to our dinner. The pub itself also looked welcoming. Unfortunately, when we walked in we had a completely disappointing experience. We were immediately told we had three minutes to order before the kitchen closed even thought on the website the kitchen was open until 8pm, and we were asked for our drink order before we had even sat at our table or had looked at the menu. Things proceeded to go downhill from there. Service was poor. We had to chase staff to get wine or anything else we wanted once our meal was served. Meals came within 5 minutes of ordering and were clearly pre-cooked without much care for quality. Our salad was ice cold and clearly pulled directly from the fridge. A side of broccoli was nearly raw and the veg with the roast looked and tasted re-warmed. While the vegetarian burger was very good, the roast pork was average. We had to chase after staff to order a second round of drinks. All-in-all we were in and out in under an hour having had one of the most disappointing and up relaxing dinners ever when we’d expected to have an enjoyable and relaxing evening. We spoke to the assistant manager about the problems we’d had. She accepted they’d fallen short and took the appropriate action, but still we left feeling dissatisfied, rushed and disappointed. The Bower Inn clearly has potential to provide excellent hospitality, but they obviously need to be honest with customers on kitchen and bar closing times before bookings are accepted and need to then provide a decent level of service and food quality to match what they claim on their website."

I cannot speak highly enough of this restaurant. I brought a gentleman who was in end-of-life care and the team and food were exceptional. They went above and beyond to make his day truly special. Speisekarte ansehen

Lovely pub/ rooms. Nice to have good coffee and fresh milk in the rooms, plus fresh shortbread a real treat. Perfect for a stop over. Clearer instructions on late checks in would be helpful we waited after ringing the bell before heading to the bar to find someone.

extremely and disappointingly less than average Sunday lunch on November 5th. Served under heated so a few meals of the 14 had to be sent back thus disrupting the meal. Poor and limited choice of meals available and for Christ's sake if you are going to advertise and sell Sunday dinners please don't then give us a list of what you don't have left

Awful rubbery Roast beef.. very difficult to cut let alone chew, tiny portions of meat. We ate about an inch of ok meat from it. I had to swap my chicken so my elderly mother had something , other than the veg.The chicken was also a small leg and the other small piece on the bone. Very difficult for elderly people, and dangerous as my father has dementia. Staff are nice and helpful and did eventually take off the charge of the worst excuse of Sunday Roast.

During our family vacation, we visited this restaurant and couldn't find a single flaw. The food was fantastic, with 5 out of 6 of us ordering burgers and 1 choosing the cod and chips. The dishes were beautifully presented and served hot. The staff were also excellent, very friendly and helpful. There was a fire alarm towards the end of our meal, but once we were back inside, the staff immediately offered to replace our meals or reheat anything that needed it. Overall, it was a great dining experience.

We booked a table here whilst in the area to celebrate my husband’s birthday (which I mentioned on the booking). Usually when I book a table elsewhere for this kind of occasion, the staff make an effort to acknowledge it. Nobody made any mention of it and when I asked a staff member if anything special could be done she said she would check with a supervisor. The supervisor told me they don’t usually do anything special for birthdays but would bring him a brownie dessert. We ordered dessert and coffee but no brownie was forthcoming so we paid and left. I wish I had booked somewhere else now. Aside from this the service was a little slow but the food was lovely, with some kind of acknowledgme...

"Been wanting to try this ‘alternative’ pub for a while. Large car park with plenty of space, no steps or slopes into the bar. Access for buggies, wheelchairs etc should be okay, my mother walks with the aid of a frame and has no issues. Inside the decor is certainly alternative but in a great way, loved it! Plenty to look at, keep you entertained and talk about as you wait for your food or just pass the time. Staff were friendly and welcoming, there was just one guy running the bar, taking food orders and bringing food out; I thought he needed a helper or coworker really. There is a decent bar area with seating or there is more ‘restaurant’ style seating further back beyond the bar. We chose to sit in the bar area seating which is a mixture of booth and chairs. Dogs are allowed in which is great, there is free Wi-Fi which is good as my mobile signal was very poor. The menu is standard pub food, quite a bit of choice and plenty of options for gluten free. I chose to have the fillet steak cooked medium, I had a starter of garlic bread but chose for it all to come out together. Mother had beef brisket loaded fries, the portion was massive so I had to help her finish it. The steak was perfectly cooked, I chose to have the peppercorn sauce; this was a bit watery and bland. The steak comes with chunky chips, peas, mushrooms, tomatoes and onion rings. For dessert I had the nutty apple crumble with ice cream, it was okay. Overall this is a great venue with acceptable food, friendly staff and awesome decor that will keep you talking and looking all night. Based on this experience I would visit again."
