Nice enough. Beautifully organised. Old fashioned feel. We visited for lunch on a week day in term time so there were plenty of spare tables. The clientele was almost entirely elderly which I suspect is the target market. Hence the general decor looked like a 1970’s living room and there were no vegetarian items on the menu. Food was OK: portion sizes were good enough for the price and arrived hot (just). Unfortunately, the onion rings were undercooked and the chicken, rubbery mushroom and tomato were slightly all overcooked. However, the chips and fish were both excellent. So, all in all, variable quality. Drinks were priced reasonably. The Guinness was from a can as the pub was trialling the alcohol free version but the glass was chilled, as it should be. Service and staff were speedy and efficient. Very well laid out interior with clear signage. Definitely one of the cleanest, neatest and tidiest pubs in which I’ve ever eaten. Plenty of room between the inside tables allowed for a more relaxed eating experience. The outside seating is next to the main road and the ‘view’ is of the local housing but it was all clean and, again, well spaced. The car park is small and cramped and there’s limited parking in the local (suburban) area nearby. Either visit off peak / early or be prepared for few minutes walk from car to pub. I would visit again but go for the one of the fish options next time.

Very happy with their vegan selection, I’m not a vegan but I have tolerances so it’s easier to just pick the vegan option. The cheezecake is to die for! Went on a Sunday afternoon, it was quiet. Nice chill atmosphere.

The Teddy is one of our locals in Longlevens and have always enjoyed going there and supporting them however, the portion sizes seem to have gotten smaller and the prices have gone up. We done our order through the app like normal, it took about 20 minutes for our starters to come through which was good however, we had already finished them before our drinks got to the table. When our mains came through, we had the peppercorn sauce missing from the steak (I let one of the kitchen staff know when she was going back to the kitchen and was happy to bring the missing sauce for us) After she brought the sauce, I realised that I was missing the popodoms from my curry but decided not to badger her again for something else that was missing. The little one had a kids brownie ice-cream for dessert but it looked like mostly cream with a small scoop of ice-cream and a couple pieces of brownie so he wasn't too keen on it. Overall,the pub is still really nice, the staff are friendly and helpful and the food is pretty nice, just feels a little expensive for what you get now.
