We visited as a family group to celebrate a birthday. When we booked we planned on there being 8 of us, but unfortunately my son found out he had to work at the last minute. We didn’t think one person missing from the table would...cause a problem. But apparently it did! After the seven of us were seated the owner/manager/ (Lorraine?) came over to our table and very curtly and rudely told us that next time, if we have members of the party unable to attend, can we please inform them as they would have sat us at a smaller table and made room for another party in the pub. This was done very loudly to our entire table and it felt like we were small school children being told off by the head mistress! I would add though that the young man who served us was extremely polite, friendly and helpful.
The food was good, why the pub has decided to title itself a “gastro pub” is beyond me - pies, chips and roast dinners doesn’t make a gastro pub in my opinion, this is just normal pub grub.
Would think twice before visiting again.More
