Why does it lose a star when the fresh seasonal food is very good, the venue polished, atmosphere pleasant and staff well trained? It's because somehow its just slightly less than the sum of its quality parts. Plenty of staff but they buzz about a little too much and it took effort to get their attention, they want £6 for bread and butter (when the well priced mains should cover that), needlessly small portion of chips, bright lights in eyes, etc...
Just needs a bit more attention to detail to be really excellent.
Beautifully renovated pub, serving excellent food. Rated with 2 AA rosettes and the food certainly delivers. Garden is an absolute delight with a stunning wisteria covering the lower seating area. Definitely a place to take friends and family if you want to wow them! Menu changes regularly with the season so always something new to try on every visit we've made. Had the scallops which were divine andnso perfectly cooked and lots of nibbles from the garden menu. Highly reccomend both the pork belly main and lamb shoulder, melt in the mouth tender and delicious garnishes with beautiful plating.
I went for lunch at The Mutton with my brother and it was amazing. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The good was fantastic! The service was amazing!
I highly recommend The Mutton. It was a treat 👍🏻
Had a nice Sunday roast, my brother brought his dogs which is helpful for dog people. We didn’t realise they had such a nice garden and had we known might have sat outside in the sun. Food was really good. Some small room for improvement on the roast potatoes however overall excellent
I've eaten here a couple of times since the refurb and the food is of an excellent standard. Really high quality menu in a beautiful pub setting. The garden is gorgeous and you can also dine in private shepherd huts. Thoroughly recommend the banoffee cheesecake
Great food to complement a night out with wife, daughter and her fiancé. Main courses of steak and venison were fab. Homely, warm atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. Not that cheap but very good food - so definitely worth the cost.
First class. Food was delicious, well presented and perfect portions to enjoy a 3 course meal. Service was welcoming, attentive and friendly. Menu was varied with vegetarian and fish options. Decor was knockout, kudos to Housenine. Can’t wait to return 🫶🏼
Really lovely spot, with vegan and veggie options. Extensive wine list. Cosy fire in the corner away from the restaurant. Big car park out back
We were so lucky to find this place. Excellent service, tasty food, stylish interior. Thank you! Highly recommended! We would love to come back!
Fish n chips was a bit greasy and the curry sauce had a skin on it as if it had been sitting around. Having said that, the wine, service and atmosphere were all great and the food was excellent barring those 2 minor gripes. Highly recommended. We’ll be back!
