Me and my wife popped in with our dog for some lunch and the staff were really good with our dog bring her a couple of treats and some water straight away. The food was excellent and reasonably priced, I would definitely recommend it.
Came here for dinner on a Thursday evening as had heard good things after being taken over by Moss&Co. and it did not disappoint! Both my friend and I ordered vegetarian meals, mine being the spicy bean burger and hers the vegetarian pie & mash. They were both absolutely incredible! One of the best burgers I have ever had! Her pie also did not disappoint, but everyone knows a vegetarian is extremely happy if there's a pie on the menu that they can eat!
Staff were also very attentive and helpful! Letting us know all about the amazing dessert called "The poor knights of Windsor" which was an absolute delight! Also finding out that the jam in it was homemade!
Will definitely be coming here again!
Was highly recommended by many people, so decided to bring a friend and try it out.
Great service and plenty of parking for customers, lovely atmosphere and attention to detail throughout with whole restaurant. I got the chicken in the bucket, large portion and delicious! my friend wasn't 100% on his village burger but still ate it all, after tells me he doesn't like mushrooms. Overall lovely evening. would recommend to anyone who hasn't been before! :)
We had a lovely Sunday lunch. The food was excellent, the staff very friendly and attentive. Lots of choice on the menu. Would definitely recommend and will visit again if we are in the locality.
The Village Maid has been taken over by new management - Moss & Co. The exterior has had a makeover as has the interior. There is much nicer lighting inside now and better seats.
There is a small rear seating area outside in the carpark too, which would be nice in the summer. The carpark is quite small, if you can get a space you'll be lucky. There is however Lound Pond just outside the front of the pub and parking all along the road is always available.
There is wheelchair accessible doorways and there is space to move around inside using one also.
There is a wide selection of drinks on offer and also food.
The pricing is nearing on the steeper side but the food is well cooked and presented nicely. The photos attached are of the southern fried chicken with chips and salted caramel cheesecake with popcorn. The popcorn was very unnecessary for the dessert and I ended up leaving it. The chicken was nicely cooked as were the chips. My friends who were with me couldn't complain about their dishes either.
The inside of the Village Maid was clean and tidy. There were an array of customers all in different age ranges.
The service however, was lacking, the food took a long while to come out so much so we thought they had forgotten about us and when we did receive it there was no apology for how long we had waited. The person serving us didn't smile either and towards the end we felt like we were being rushed out even though there was still 45mins until closing time.
We visited on a Thursday eve, so we were confused as to why food took so long as there weren't that many people eating, mainly social drinking.
I would visit again, hoping that it would be better a second time.
I would advise booking a table, if there are more than 2 of you. The tables were mostly set up for couples.
All in all a nice place to eat and drink.
We had not booked on a Sunday lunchtime visit but we were given a table for 2 immediately. Good choice of food available. I had roast pork, my husband roast beef,which arrived at the table quicker than I expected as they were very busy. All very tasty variety of veg together with sausage and Yorkshire..my only issue was a lot of fat on the pork. Good food good value and excellent service .I recommend a visit we will return.
Truly FABULOUS FIND ... Popped in on the off chance . So glad we did...
Staff were very engaging & friendly, we SO appreciated the FAB INTERIOR...What a PERFICK little watering hole & eatery...
Wonderful place with very friendly staff, creates an atmosphere where you expect good food, and get it! The portions are very good, and the choice was quite large.
We, a group of four men, really enjoyed the experience.
Well done all staff!
Wiled away a very pleasant 3 hours on Saturday after exploring Lound Lakes NR with the dogs. Couldn’t fault the food and prices were very reasonable for the quality. Will definitely be returning
Delicious food, thank you! Lovely place.
Had a lovely time here! Staff were very lovely and attentive, brought my dog water immediately to us. Was apprehensive bringing a puppy and an autistic 3 year old to a restaurant type place but they were so nice to us even when my child fussed. Food arrived quickly and fresh. Toilets were very clean and so was the rest of the restaurant. Honestly can't complain about anything, will defo visit again!
Well done, food and service very good. We will be back when in the area.
