Ate here for the first time on a Saturday afternoon & it was a lovely experience. The dining hall is big, open & spacious with high ceilings & big doors that open to an outside seating area which is great on a sunny day like when we went. The menu is fantastic as is the food, drinks menu also excellent. Staff were great, very young staff but very polite & attentive. Definitely recommend a visit & will be going again soon to try their Sunday lunch
We called in here for the toilet, then decided to get something to eat, it was beautiful inside, my friend went to the toilet and I was seated by a most polite waiter, who brought the menus, and a bottle of ice cold water from the fridge, which was very welcome, I looked at the menu and saw A'la Carte, and immediately thought this is not going to be a normal lunch, on looking at the menu, my mouth started yum yum at what I could have, my friends returned, looked at the menu and I knew they thought the same, so I said right we have come out for a special lunch, so we picked our choices which were.....
Starters......
Ginger Marinated Pigeon Breast
Prawn Cocktail (Bloody Mary Sauce)
Duck Liver & Brandy Pate.
Mains.....
Slow Braised Beef Cheek
Homemade Suet Pie with Triple cooked chips.
Ceasar Salad, Boiled skin Potato and side of Fresh Salmon
These meals were out of the world, the taste sublime, the presentation amazing, worth every penny, the service was amazing, the dish I had, Slow Braised Beef Cheek was awarded the 2 Rosette Award, and I could see why..... we couldn't manage the pudding menu, on paying the bill it came to just under £90, so £30 each, was delighted with the price for such beautifully served tasteful food, it was only a few days before it cost me £80 for a takeaway curry at my son's house, The Griffin would win hands down everytime, you need to go here and sample the delicious food and ambience of The Griffin, we will definitely be going back, and maybe make it a cheeky night away in the hotel too.
Was a walk-in with a friend who had heard good things about the food. Unfortunately, we were told they were fully booked so we sat with a drink. About 5-10 minutes later the gentleman who had served the drinks had gone out his way to ask the chef if they could fit 2 more people in! We enjoyed a brilliant roast dinner, friendly staff, nice ambience. Highly recommended, make sure you book a table just in case.
Thank you
Had a lovely Sunday roast here - the food itself was excellent and good quality. We will definitely return and I would recommend to anyone looking to book somewhere for a great Sunday roast. The service was also excellent and the restaurant area is decorated nicely with a good ambience.
My friends had a wedding here and we were blown away with not only the food but the lovely friendly but professional service.
The place was perfect for a wedding and the staff dealt with us all so well! The poor weather wasn’t an issue as we managed to move inside when the downpour came and felt cosy and well looked after
Thank you!
Lovely place. Tasteful decor. Didn't eat there this time around but did enquire about gluten-free options which we have been advised they have many. Had an ale or two. Relaxing atmosphere with a warm ambiance.
Great food, great service. Would 100% recommend for any occasion.
Invited for dinner with a family relation & the food was excellent and service was good. Dog friendly as well. I had one of their special pies , Leak potato & cheese. Delicious
A Sunday lunch for 5 adults and 3 kids for a birthday. It was lovely food and good thoughtful service! We will definitely come back!!
First class Sunday lunch in pleasant surroundings. The pub is immaculate and there's plenty of parking.
Highly recommend.
