    The pub is run by young adults. Service slow. Food ok but could have been better, chips over cooked, mushy veg. Sat with drinks after meal and as we left an hour after finishing our food our plates and empty glasses were yet to be cleared. The pub was not busy so no excuse. No back ground music just customer chatter. I will not be returning which is a shame as we used to visit regularly.

    Had booked for a meal here by looking at the reviews and we weren't disappointed. The food was fantastic. We both had a roast and it was very tasty followed by a lovely pudding. We weren't rushed during our meal it was all very relaxing. I think we will be returning.

    We had a lovely family meal here on a Tuesday early evening. The evening set menu offers excellent value for a lovely selection of dishes. The kids portion was plenty for our 10 year old, and again the options were great.

    We made the most of the weather and sat outside, a great singer was performing- he sang some great songs really well. Food was very average and not nearly as good as it used to be, the food on offer has changed greatly. We all had the steak pie but was very disappointed with it, tasted fine but it looked like any Holland’s pie that I could buy at the shop. When we got a bit cold we decided to head inside to have a drink (around 8pm) only to sit down and the tellies switched off and the bar was shut. I could not believe they were closing at that time on a Saturday night on a bank holiday weekend! No last orders either. No wonder they are quiet! Probably wasted their money with an act. We went to another venue just down the road and they were very busy with a very good atmosphere- I definitely think the Plough are missing a trick, shut early and locals stop going!

    Dreadful. Our first two wine choices were not available. The young man serving us seemed to think this was funny. There was live music in the bar from 7pm. It was very loud and even though we were in the restaurant and not the bar area where the band were it made conversation almost impossible. The food was evidently the ‘pre prepared no chef required’ variety. It was edible but not worth the price charged. Will not be going again.
