Upton Firehouse

I saw the “Upton smokery” sign passing to work last week. I told my partner about it when I got home and decided that the 45 minute car journey may be worth it. We had a Sunday roast today, it was AMAZING. The vegetables were cooked perfectly and so tasty, a generous amount of meat and potatoes were also served up along with gravy and Yorkshire pudding. We had just enough room for a pudding- which also met high expectations- delicious! Staff was lovely which came with great service. I would not hesitate to recommend this great place. I am in fact going back in two weeks time for the BBQ night to try that out. I don’t mind paying slightly higher for great food and service... 5* well done to Sam, Jak and the team

Well worth the visit 👍 Restaurant reminded my of barn dance days 😅 Large open barn, with smoker at one end and a small, but selectively stocked bar at the other. For those popping in to the Aladdin's cave of a shop or the distillery, which has a good range of both wines and spirits, you can sit with a drink and enjoy the smells of 'home cooked' food.

Food here is fantastic. Visited here with two friends on the Wednesday pizza night. Ordered the pepperoni pizza for myself it was extremely fresh and delicious. Also ordered a beer, they have a good selection of beverages. The menu is limited and is also dependent on what day it is so suggest check ahead if you are picky. There was no need to book befor arrival. The tables were inside the main barn and well socially distanced. The staff were brilliant and made the one of the first outings after lock down even better. Would recomend to all. Ample parking on fully paved. Will visit again.

Lockdown visit, staff all masked, great safety practices. Outside table service, fast, friendly staff. Small fire pit for warmth and umbrellas for shelter over tables. A large gravel area provided and marquees also. Limited GF, but staff GF aware.Bikes can be taken to tables. Some vegetarian options. Probably need to visit post lockdown and to ask about GF menu options.
