Love this place….superb food with all flavours at reasonable prices. The fish dishes are so tasty. Staff are amazing….friendly and welcoming. Great atmosphere. So sad that it is closing…..will be a great loss to dining out as there is no place to compare with its standards and ambience.

Always good food here with helpful staff

Came here for the first time to have the afternoon tea with a friend. The atmosphere was calm & peaceful and the seats/tables were clean. The staff were welcoming and attended to us well. The afternoon tea itself was excellent; they brought out a starter first followed by a tier of sandwiches/french fries & a range of desserts. The only downside was that for the starter 2/3 dishes were non-vegetarian and they didn’t have any veggie alternatives so I could actually only eat one of the dishes. As part of the main afternoon tea you get a choice of sandwiches to choose from - again no veggie options. In order to cater for everyone they should have veggie options on their menu. Overall, it was a good visit.

Restaurant was lovley and clean, beautiful service and food. I went with my grandparents and they were so accommodating and friendly. We had 2 roasts and a chicken basket with drinks and desserts after and i believe it was a fair price. Would recommend.
Baz Patel
Good quality food at decent prices. Was very busy for a Thursday night, but plenty of seats in the bar and restaurant. Happily recommend it to anyone looking for a meal out with friends midweek. Good selection of mains and desserts including sticky toffee pudding and Manchester tart!

I Was taken here as a birthday treat. We had afternoon tea. They serve a trio of canapés as a starter, when we asked what they were we didn't like any of them. They were very accommodating and changed them to what we did like. The cakes were tiny and not duplicated so we had to cut them in half to be able to try each of them, this madecthem even tinier. Service was brilliant, It's a shame I can't say the same for the atmosphere, there was a really loud boisterous party on a table close by and we struggled to hear each other speak. This was not really the Taverns fault though.

Beth Gill

Jane Riley
Beautiful clean surrounding and friendly service. Had a bit of a wait time but something had happened. There manager was accommodating and apologized. The food is fault less all of the meat was just so soft. The children's meals are a good size too. I will definitely be returning think I may have found a little gem here.
Vicky Wilson
Lovely place, nice food and the staff here are great. I would say however that the prices are on the higher side compared to other nearby restaurants that also serve good quality food.
Leesa Hellings

Foods good but the prices of the food is just to much compared to other places I've been.
Harry Downs
I was taken here by my sister and had a truly wonderful meal chosen from an interesting and varied menu. It was early evening, so a bit quiet as far as atmosphere.
Patricia Montgomery
Very good food, great selection and smaller portions choice as well. Very comfortable and service was great.
Johnathan Pin
Reasonable priced food with friendly and cheerful staff. Nice atmosphere and if you ask staff can give you a quiet corner for romantic dinning. 🥰🥰 Very suitable for dating.
Kathryn Anne
Fabulous food , great atmosphere and friendly staff. Made a wonderful fuss of our Grandson for his 2nd birthday tea. Setting the table with a balloon and presenting him with a cake while singing "happy birthday" All in all a very enjoyable evening. Many thanks to Jane and her staff.

Found this place via trip advisor-on our way home looking for a place for Sunday lunch. We weren't disappointed! Mid afternoon when we arrived, resiwas busy, received a warm welcome. Short wait for table. 3 Sunday lunches ordered. Good being served loones and smelt delicious. 15/20 mins wait for meal. Lean, well cooked meat (turkey for 2 of us and beef for 1), beef melted in your mouth! Mash and roasties, crushed carrots, broccoli and cauliflower topped off with Yorkshire puds! Veg perfect, not squishy and over cooked unlike some we've had. Perfect puds finished off our meal. A great value meal all round in well kept clean, well organised pub. Will definitely add this place to my list if passing by again!

The food was excellent and we had a very enjoyable bite to eat.
The only black mark was the incessant interruptions from the staff, 'is everything ok with your meals sir?' 'would you like me to take that glass sir?' 'shall I take that plate sir?' Would you like another drink sir?' 'Would you like to see the dessert menu sir?'
Our plate was taken almost seconds after eating, asked twice within about 90 seconds if we wanted to see the dessert menu and if we wanted more drinks.
I know they follow a script but it was OTT when we went. Hopefully it isn't like that all the time.
But as I said earlier, the food was excellent 10/10.
Joanne Diggle
The food was so good last Sunday we came back again this Sunday & it was excellent again, this is fast becoming my favourite place to fetch family & friends as well always enjoy our visits, the staff are friendly & the food & drinks are always first rate.

We always get a great meal here, however since going vegan / vegetarian when out at restaurants (because it's difficult to be vegan when out at restaurants ) I'm very disappointed in the choice on the menu, one vegan , one vegetarian main meal, not enough
Terence David Harrison
This is our closest eatery, we usually eat here a lot, but I'm seriously thinking of eating somewhere else from now on. We went on Saturday although it was busy we got a table quick enough. I have no complaints about the food whatsoever, as usual it was excellent
The problem was the staff they got our meals mixed up, took ages to bring the wrong desserts & drinks were slow as well, I know there were new staff but he could've asked a senior member of staff if he had everything right.
But what really got us was that several staff were chewing gum, but it doesn't help that the manager walks around chewing as well.
If I wanted to go to a cheap pizza place then I would've. If in the unlikely event that we go again & staff are being so lackadaisical again we will walk straight out.

Came here for lunch with, a group of 8 friends in total, on 13th October. Ate from the ‘light’ menu and was pleasantly surprised at the portion sizes. Everyone enjoyed their meal, so much so, we have booked our Christmas Lunch here this year.
Michelle Mort
Would definitely recommend, we celebrated my mum's 70th at the Tavern last night, the food was excellent the staff couldn't have been anymore accommodating and friendly considering we were a large group and the service was second to none.
Alessandra Acquisto
I went for a meal with my mother in law. Waited at the bar to be seated. Once at our table we ordered a starter and a main each. Unfortunately in my main I found a hair. I told that straight away to the manager. She offered to redo the meal for me but it would have taken 20 minutes so I told her I didn't want it. I wanted to eat together with my mother in law, not separate. The manager apologised and said that she would have offered coffees and desserts.
After that she didn't show herself up again. We ordered one coffee and when the bill came the coffee was there full price. Not only she disappeared but she didn't even instruct any of the floor staff. So I ended up paying for a main course I didn't eat and for a coffee that was supposed to be free. Really bad way of dealing with such a situation especially considering that thete were only a few table and numerous members of staff.
Emily Dawson
Lovely staff. Very helpful and cheery. It was very busy for a midday Tuesday however there were lots of other Christmas meal diners too. The Christmas meal was delicious with great quality ingredients and presented very appetisingly. Will definitely visit again soon!!!
Catherine Gray
The food was amazing, the staff are polite and friendly,my only complaint is the heat,i’ve been twice in the last few weeks and it is absolutely boiling,the heating is on full and there is a fire aswell,as much as I appreciate it gives off an ambience and the weather is changing there really isn’t any need for it to be that hot,I literally had to sit outside as soon as I’d finished my meal as my face was on fire, me and my partner wanted to stay for another couple of drinks but found the heat overwhelming.
Sheila Crossley

Justine L Donnelly

Keith Sloane
It is always an enjoyable experience at the Tavern. The staff are very friendly & helpful. The menu is quite extensive, so it should be quite easy for anyone to find something they like.
There is also a good selection of beers at the bar, including a particular favourite of mine, Alchemists Ale.
All in all, a very pleasant restaurant.
Valerie Frankland
