The Plough has become our favourite restaurant since we moved to the area back in the summer of 2022. The food is amazing, and it’s so nice to see that they make a real effort to come up with very imaginative vegetarian and vegan dishes. Service is efficient and friendly, and dogs are always welcome, which is hugely important to us.

Have been to The Plough before and once again was not disappointed. An early (18.30) Monday evening dinner for two and The Plough was surprisingly busy but service was prompt and friendly. An interesting and varied menu at reasonable prices, well presented and delicious.
