   We were staying at the Bear Inn and after reading the reviews decided to eat there. The drinks and food were delicious. Service excellent.

   The food was over priced and not the standard of a gastro pub. Decor very average.

   Trained staff only should be allowed to settle bills. We were told that no service charge had been applied to our bill so we offered to add on 10%. When we looked at the bill later a service charge of 12.5% HAD been applied. Therefore we had paid a total of 22.5% in service charges! It was not worth that much! This was a case of either insufficient training or sharp practice.

   Sunday lunch was amazing, it looked and smelt fantastic. We ordered the roast beef and it was amazing, it melted in the mouth. The venue and staff all fantastic.

   Surprisingly quiet for a Friday night this close to Christmas, but the food was tasty, generous and our waitress was great. Highly recommend the turkey !

   Lovely dining area. Fanatic staff attentive and friendly. The food was nice - I had king prawn curry (with crispy samphire - delicious) and husband had sausages and mash. Flavour was lovely. We had cheese straws to nibble - they were much bigger than straws 😂

   Made a last minute reservation and had no trouble booking. Service was outstanding from start to finish. Food was excellent and great value for money. First time we had been here and was made to feel very welcome. I would definitely recommend The Bear Inn.

   The Sunday lunch is one of the best I've had, food is consistently good each time we visit. Staff are great, they always make a fuss over my dog. The place has a very relaxed vibe which I like.

    Very busy pub which is a good recommendation to start with. Food was great and the staff were engaging, helpful and charismatic.
