"A shame. A mixture of potential and disappointment we left not wanting to return a 3rd time. Tried to book 4 times to no avail. Arrived to be treated with almost contempt at asking where we could sit. Fab location. Park outside of the village to avoid big problems. Bring bug repellant and tool kit for rotting tables if you intend on braving the back jungle. Lack of serviceable space outdoors. Derelict rear garden, dirty loos, unhelpful and confused staff, chef swearing at the chaos. Lost order tickets, 2 hour wait for food. Very very helpful and cheerful young kitchen assistant. A real asset to the business. Much of the food was observed as frozen supermarket food brought out from the back, heated on outdoor temporary though seemingly now permanent kitchen and presented as fresh meals. The pork which appeared fresh was however tasty. Beautiful spot but honestly not worth the hassle, wait or chaos in future. Service: 1 Location: 4"

"Take away fish chips on a breezy, dreary Tuesday afternoon in October. We live in a seaside town with fish/chip shops a plenty, but these were seriously the best fish chips we've had in a long time! Excellent service, fish was Hake, light golden batter, great sized meaty fish, good portion of lovely crispy chips. Also had a pot of mushy peas, which we didn't realise were minted, lovely. Well worth the drive through the narrow lanes! Service: Take out Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Mushy Peas, Fish Chips Parking space: Plenty of parking"

"This is not my first time reviewing this establishment, but it may very well be my last. I have always considered Stokeley Farm Shop and Tap House to be a enjoyable spot for dining and drinking, but my recent visit following the coronation was a letdown. Despite advertising a special event for the coronation weekend, there were hardly any decorations or acknowledgment of the occasion. No one, including the staff, had dressed up, and the food (aside from the ribs) was underwhelming. The service was simply unsatisfactory. My husband had to fetch our drinks from the bar himself, and it took an almost an hour for our meals to be served - a rack of ribs and fries for him, and half a lobster for me. The ribs were tasty, but the lobster was disappointingly small and came with a lackluster salad that lacked flavor. The fries were unremarkable - I was expecting more from a chef known for their skill. We voiced our concerns about the service and were offered a free drink, which we declined. Despite not being overly busy, other diners left before us due to the lengthy wait. I have previously mentioned the need for effective management at this establishment, and that sentiment remains. While it may see a surge in tourists in the upcoming months, it is us locals who sustain these businesses once the tourists have gone."

"Ten of us went to this restaurant for our Christmas dinner, and I was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating they were. The chef, Gareth, took the time to put together a special menu just for me as the only vegan in the group, featuring three appetizers and three main dishes to choose from. The food was absolutely delicious! Everyone else at the table enjoyed their meals as well. I highly recommend this place to all my vegan friends, as many pubs and restaurants often struggle to provide decent vegan options. I hope this encourages them to keep expanding their vegan menu. Even non-vegans would love the food here! A big thank you for making me feel so welcome. x"

"This charming little pub offers a fantastic view of the sea from its restaurant. I enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch with all the trimmings, including excellent cauliflower cheese and generous portions of beef and turkey. The honey-glazed carrots were delightful, and the potatoes had just the right amount of crispiness. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience. The staff were friendly, and the red wine was great as well. Definitely worth a visit for the value it provides. Food: 4, Service: 4."
