The Owston

All staff are, attentive, polite, professional and a credit to the business. Slight hiccup with the main meal, however, this was corrected straight away and with genuine sincerity. King prawn Linguine and Calazone were fantastic, fresh and very flavoursome. Calamari starters also fresh, tasty. Overall, great value for money, I will certainly be returning and trying other items on the menu. Very well done to the staff and management for their professionalism and courtesy. The 2* on atmosphere was due to rowdy, loud customers and a dog, this in no way reflects the establishment but still part of the dining experience.

Six of us came for dinner on a Friday evening, and it was quite quiet. The waitress may have been inexperienced, but she forgot to note down one of the orders, and this wasn't noticed until all the dishes were brought out and one of the diners was missing a meal. By this time, the original server had left, and everything was rectified quite quickly, with the missing meal taken off the bill, along with a complimentary round of drinks for the table. They also didn't charge us for a meal that was dropped in the kitchen and remade (although it was served only a little later, and they probably could have gotten away with not telling us). The food was delicious, good-sized portions and good value for money.

Closer Saturday Night... Open Sunday Lunch... Not the best first impressions. Attempted to dine here and try for the first time on a Saturday night... But the place was closed, no signs no nothing, tried calling beforehand but obviously no answer. There was however a function going on so maybe not enough staff to cover both? Either way, somw kind of notice/sign/anything to let potential diners knownwould be great. For that (and soke tiny issues below) ... I cant go higher than a 4. So... By chance we were driving by the day after around lunch and noticed lights were on. So we stopped to try the food. Disappointing thst only carvery was being offered (Daddy not a fan of carvery) but we were hungry so we sat down. Very small carvery section and not alot of choice BUT it would seem these guus are going for Quality and not Quantity. Very good food that we had, meats were nicely cooked (tried the turkey, gammon and beef) and as a nice bonus... Sausages are part ofnthe self serve!! Veggies cooked cracking and the gravy was just about right. The small issues, no peas.... Sunday lunch without peas is sacrilege haha. Yorkshire puddings, the star of a sunday lunch in our opinion.... Looked fantastic, and thats it, unfortunately these were jist hollow crispy shells of yorkshire pud lookalikes. Pure imposters! One of the cooked hand balled cooked ready to eat food from pans intonthe carvery. Not good. And would reflect some of the hygiene practices that contributed to their 4 star hygiene rating. Some small tweaks to be made for a 5 in oir opinion but we will return for a try of the al a carte menu.

Staff were warm and friendly and couldn't do enough to help.Lovely cosy atmosphere inside this place with lots of space to eat.Private dining area for parties and events.Spacious outside seating area for the summer sun.Meal was gorgeous and reasonably priced will definately come again.

We had a wonderful meal here a few weeks ago. The food was home made and full of flavour. The staff were attentive and ensured we had all we needed throughout our visit. If you're looking for a lovely place to eat out I would recommend this place. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get. Go and give it a try guys 👍
