"Fantastic 2 year Anniversary experience with my partner at the White Hart; we even got a lovely card and the staff made us feel special which was great stuff. We asked about the history of the building, and received a very consciousness response from our server. Really yummy food, quality products used and attentive, slick service making very good value for money! The food comes from local suppliers and their garden kitchen and this shines through the dishes. If I may I would say that while the Malbec Bordeaux wine selection was flavourful I would kindly suggest taking a look to see what else could be offered at this price point. However, good value and felt inclined to leave a nice tip."

"Our first visit and a bit of a “middling” experience really. TBF, if I could, I’d give it 3.5 stars, rather than 3. So, pros and cons Pros : Parking was easy. The Staff were friendly. The room we stayed in was pleasant enough and quiet (as we’d asked for . It got rather hot during the night, but of course that’s subjective; some people would love it hot. The food was mostly good, I say mostly, as my wife had the steak, which although small, was good, (I nicked a piece . I had the pork schnitzel and although to be fair it was ok, it didn’t really taste of much. The singer they had in was really good, we enjoyed listening to him. The wine was nice, (but see Cons below . Cons: My wife ordered a side dish, but it never appeared and before too long it became pointless to chase it up. We also asked for a dessert menu which never appeared either and unfortunately there wasn’t anyone around to follow up with immediately by the time there was, we’d lost interest. The wine was nice, but for the price, I should hope so! I’m sorry, but over £11 for a large glass of non fancy Chardonnay is expensive given the location. Breakfast was included in the price, which was good as if we’d had to pay separately, we’d would have complained. We both got served up a cold large mushroom and a barely cooked cold tomato, plus a vegan sausage (unasked for;there was also a tiny skinny meat sausage which we had asked for , which was unfortunate given the length of time it took for the meals to appear. All in all, we’d have to ponder as whether to go back again. The room was quite nice the place has some charm, entertainment good and the staff were friendly. But the issues with the food , (it’s not cheap either! , and the differing levels of service, means it wouldn’t be at the top of our “go to” places."

"I visited this restaurant with a friend I haven't seen in years, as it has always been a favorite spot for us. It was busy, and the manager was focused on their ipad, so I asked the bar staff if there was a chance of getting a table and we were willing to wait. The manager eventually looked up and informed us that they were full, despite there being empty tables. There was no warmth or hospitality, and my friend even witnessed a couple leaving. If the manager had at least said they couldn't promise anything but suggested we grab a drink and wait, we would have stayed. However, it felt like they weren't interested in accommodating us. My friend was so appalled that we decided to leave and went to Bear and Ragged Staff, where we had a lovely meal. I won't be returning to this restaurant again. Remember, manners cost nothing."

"We hadn't been to the Bear in a very long time, having read good reviews decided to visit for Sunday lunch. We received a warm welcome from friendly staff, who showed us to our table after a short wait. The pub has changed a lot since we were last there, it's kept its old world charm and looks inviting. We all enjoyed our food, one roast chicken, a venison cottage pie and a roast duck, all very well cooked and presented. Puddings all really good too. I would recommend the Bear it's well worth a visit."

"an excellent place for a week-end stay (or longer) in their well-ordered brain huts or simply for a quick drink, a lunch or dinner. lisa and ian are excellent hosts and they will get the same reception whatever you visit involves warm and pleasant. eating is really very good and they will find a drink here to satisfy most taste. there are few places I would recommend without reservation, but that is one if they."
