The Plough has gone from excellent to just average unfortunately. On previous visits we have been really impressed with the food, but things seem to have changed. The menu has gone from gastro pub to just pub favourites. Which is fine if it’s simple food done well, but the dishes weren’t even great. BBQ chicken wings had no real flavour. Goats cheese left a butter after taste and beetroot was overpoweringly vinegary. The pork wellington was supposed to come with a fondant potato but the potatoes were crushed new potatoes. No explanation for this but the waitress did offer us drinks on the house. She was very apologetic and very kind, but we were disappointed to see things have slipped in the kitchen.

Good food. Good service. Acceptable Merlot. But low ceiling means that dining in the rear part of the building is very noisy.

Attentive service, not intrusive, low key but arrived when required and were helpful when it came to paying, no avoiding eye contact, very polite. A relatively simple menu but still offering a good selection of meat, fish and vegetarian.options. Our selections were very tasty. The hake with beurre blanc sauce was excellent.

The service was good but unfortunately firstly if you’re going to have a small menu, you need to not run out of anything or at least back up so a substitute option can be offered but also it needs to be cooked with premium ingredients. The fillet steaks while flavoursome, were chewy. I think since last visit they’ve changed the bulbs in the wall lights and it’s somehow killed the ambiance and made the overall feeling cold, not in temperature just quite a white light. Shame as closest pub to us so although we may be back, can’t recommend as it stands.

Nice front of house staff, very attentive. The meal was not so good; it was tasty but the few sprout leaves and hard roast potatoes I had let the main course down badly. The thimble-full of custard that came with the Apple crumble was a bit of a joke. Overall I felt I had paid a lot of money for not very much. Not sure seeing the kitchen team lounging around through the large glass panel helps that much although the kitchen looked very clean and tidy. I like to support local businesses. I may have been unlucky and do hope others have a better experience.
