Reviews of The Olive Tree

Came here to watch the World cup rugby as A SA fan, proper beer well kept, fab menu and had some SA food on to make the visitors happy. Absolutely slammed it down with rain and marquee was getting flooded, landlady and staff in the rain with buckets clearing away the water. Absolute fantastic to see them jumping in. These folks care about their customers and their place. Cannot recommend enough.

Nice country pub with good service and food. Plenty of outdoor seating and in a very peaceful location. The location can also be a challenge, as there's limited transport options and most would need to drive. Luckily, there's plenty of parking but it does get full quite quickly. The service was very rushed when we visited, and there were only a few people trying their best, but were indeed rushed off their feet. Food was tasty and drinks were of average pricing. I'd return.

The food was excellent and the staff were really helpful and friendly when we were here. It is a blit out of the way, but well worth a visit. We went on a Saturday night and it is worth noting there was a live singer. The singer was very talented, but it depends what sort of night you want as it is not a large pub. Would definitely revisit.

A really nice place to eat, I liked what their varied menu offered for normal eating, but not much on offer to vegetarians. Staff were helpful and friendly, and the service was good. The marquee near the building was very useful for people with pets and also for parents with young children to run around freely.

This really is a wonderful country pub! We had a delicious lunch at the Olive Tree today. There’s plenty of parking on site and a great marquee set up in the beer garden if the weather isn’t on your side. Lots of picnic tables nicely spaced out a and a few cushions to make you as comfortable as possible. Covid-19 measures were also clearly in place with track and trace available or the option to leave your details manually and lots of hand sanitiser dotted around. Drinks and food were fabulous, as was the service from our lovely waitress Kate who was so very friendly and helpful (as were all of the staff). We both went for the moules frites (on the specials menu) and they were we’re plump, juicy, delicious and came with a huge portion of thick cut, well seasoned chips and some amazingly good hand cut bread to mop up the fantastic garlic and white wine sauce. They even thoughtfully included a finger bowl with lemon to clean your hands afterwards which was a great touch. Our drinks were refreshing and spot on for a hot day so I really can’t recommend this pub highly enough. Support local and get yourself down there with friends or family - you won’t be disappointed! Thank you to all of the team for a wonderful afternoon x

Lorraine & clark. Seafood platter very mediocre. Had to ask for plates & cutlery. Ordered wine & had to pour ourselves. Had to ask twice for second bottle. Ran out if desserts. At £100 + per couple felt bit miffed we had to trek thru bar to read the menu. Very disappointing visit and staff need shake/wake up!!!
