Visited with a group of friends and family to watch the fantastic Bootsy Soul Band.
First visit to this lovely country pub, despite the weather conditions being awful the pub did everything possible to stage the event and maximise the enjoyment of its customers.
We all had a wonderful time and the service both prior to the event by John and on the day by his team was exceptional.
We look forward to a return visit, and hopefully the weather will be better to enjoy the garden area to its full potential.
Well done The Manger.
Unfortunately we didn't have the best experience, our table which was for 17 people that was booked well in advance really wasn't suitable. A rectangle and a circle table were placed together meaning that people had their backs to others. The staff then changed it to a straight line but it really wasn't suitable for 17, they admitted that they forgot about the 2 highchairs as part of the table, but they were on the corners anyway so was a very tight squeeze for 15 people. In my opinion the booking really shouldn't have been taken if it was too many. After this was sorted the food was good. It seemed that my dad's main (pie) was forgotten about as all the meals came out and this came some time after. They were very good at bringing extra veg and gravy to be honest.
My roast pork was very nice and lovely roast potatoes.
All in all it was a little disappointing as this was for my parents 30th wedding anniversary.
Hopefully will come again as a smaller group to give it another try.
After driving past many times finally able to get a chance to have lunch. Pleasantly surprised beautiful historic building. Lovely outdoor seating area. Greeted by staff with a lovely smile was given rhe choice of four different tables. Excellent Malbec. Nice choice of sandwiches or baguettes fillings all served with chips & salad. Pleased to see gluten free options available. We were checked on a number of times feeling well taken care of. Will definitely be returning perhaps for an evening meal.
Absolutely hands down the best Sunday roast I’ve had in years. Staff were brilliant. Home made cauliflower cheese along with everything else homemade was amazing.
There really is no point in making it yourself at home when the price including drinks works out less than if you went to a supermarket.
Highly recommended and we’re be going back that’s for sure 😋
We hired out the function room in the manger for our small sized wedding reception and we cannot thank them enough for making our day as special as it was. The food was incredible. The service was amazing and the staff were so accommodating even helping us find taxis at the end of the night.
I would recommend this to anyone who considers this pub, be it for a dinner or a private function this pub is amazing.
Thank you again,
David.
We hired the function room for our wedding reception, John and his staff were amazing from first enquiring to saying goodbye on the night. I cannot thank them enough, it was everything we wanted and more. Great hearty food that catered to all our guests, there was something for everyone. The room itself was beautiful, we barely needed any decorations just a couple ‘just married’ balloons and banners. We know the importance of supporting family businesses and it was a pleasure to do so. I’d also like to add that when visiting the ladies room it was lovely to see free sanitary products available for those unexpected moments, I wish more places catered like this. Thank you again for everything, we hope to see you again soon. X
Really great staff, very friendly and accommodating for us and our puppy. The Sunday Roast was 10/10. Will definitely be coming here again soon.
Oh what a lovely Pub. Taken there for a pre -Birthday meal. There was a vintage car rally (TR owners club) in the outside area. Some very nice cars. Held regularly i believe ! Period property , timber beams and open fire places. Welcoming staff and comfortable seating. Food to an excellent standard, tasty and very well presented. No rush and attentive staff. Looking forward to returning again.
Great tasting food and value for money. Friendly and helpful staff. Not in your face just right amount of attention.
For a new couple that have taken over a pub I used to go regularly, the food was better and service was great they really made us welcome and I fully recommend for drinks and food !!!! Car park and disability access and dog friendly..
