   Good afternoon! Just letting you know our kitchen is closed until further notice Regards Team Pembroke I would say, this is so sad to read. We booked a table for three an received this email hours before we wanted to join dinner. Really sad!

   When we arrived at the oub and saud about our booking we was told the kitchen had closed a month ago. When booking was made I had to pay £30 holding fee I can say goodbye to that as there is no way of contacting anyone regarding a refund. I would seriously removed your availability to book on line at your restaurant

   Hi Keely, Thank you for your feedback. Our apologies for the confusion however we do not advertise that we serve food as our kitchen is closed until further notice. When the kitchen reopens we will be advertising on our website. Kind Regards, The Pembroke Team

   Took Friend out for the football and we always eat seomwhere before the game. Booked this (well in advance) as havent been there before and all seemed fine. A week before booking I got a message telling me that the booking was on during a football game (which I was well aware of) which I promptedly responded that we were all indeed Chelsea Fans and had ticket, so entry shouldnt be a problem. Twice more this same contact was made. Seems to be very interested in making sure we were home fans. Anyways, all was good until we turned up for out table and found that the kitchen was closed. Noone informed us and therefore it was too late to book anywhere else for lunch. What an absolete joke and wont be returning to somewhere with such poor thought and service

   Hi Paul, Thank you for your feedback. Our sincere apology for not contacting you in advance about the kitchen being closed. We have found the issue with the gas that morning ourselves and we have arranged an emergency engineer to attend and managed to open the kitchen in the later afternoon. We have informed all patrons on arrival. Unfortunately due to health and safety we weren't able to open at the time of your booking. If you have been a regular attendee throughout of last year's season and Euro's you know that this is not our standard service. We wish you give us another try at the next game. Kind Regards, Team Pembroke

   We have been going and enjoying sunday roast many times at The Pembroke before we had our 1st baby ( 6 months now ) and since. We never had an issue until we asked for a glass of Proseco which was offered last Sunday for Mother 'day ( my partner 1st mothr day and we were with our baby ). Per the attched picture ( from Pembroke own website ) we had to book to get one glass of prosecco, but the General Manager ( Zoe) said , the booking had to be made 24 hours before mother's day ( we did our booking on mothers day). Zoe said she was told verbally about the 24 hours and nothing in writing was put for her or the customer to show the 24 h restriction. We point out to the pembroke website and she said it should have been booked on the 2nd March?! I believe she confused the ( 2) for the 2 events in March with '2nd' march . Anyway Zoe ( general manager) refused serving one glass of prosecoo to a new mother , also a loyal customer. Even the 2 othes ladies working there ( after looking at our booking + the Pembrook website about mother day ) understood and seem embarrassed but said their manager was against it . Very sad and disapointing and apparently Zoe does not have a line manager , as she refused to give us any name on who to report the incident to.

    Trivia was great!! Service was so so. You have to order your drinks and food at the bar, although no one tells you this upon arrival. Food was tasty. Pub quiz was worth the visit, otherwise unremarkable.
