The Holly Bush Inn - Carte

We went to the curry night at the Holly Bush and it was excellent, very tasty and great value at £9 including a drink. Well worth a visit

There was well prepared good pub food and the beer was well kept and varied. It`s a large pub and seemed to be frequented mainly by locals

No atmosphere had to ask for the background music to be turned on. First ones in asked what the soup, pie and resotto of the day was, none available!! What we had was average nothing special Voir le carte

Great host, but..... the only restaurant in the area with lots of availability on Father’s Day. I know why.... only 1 meat on roast, vege option was poor, desert menu all sold out, restaurant cold.

So good we went back a week later with other family members for an end-of-holiday meal. Good helpings of freshly cooked food that was very appetising. Service is good. We all left feeling well fed. Good ales on offer. The full English breakfast is amongst the best if you happen to be here of a morning.

I've been staying long term for 6 weeks, Tom as the new manager has been brilliant really friendly and accomodating. Lovely warm friendly pub with good beer. He's been so good to me cant do enough and his partner Laura my car broke down they come to my rescue to take Me back a lovely kind warming couple couldn't ask for nicer people. I really hope everything goes well for them in the new adventure. They really deserve the best. Voir le carte

Booked our table for 5 mid-December for Wednesday the 27th. Whoever took our booking on the phone asked and repeated our phone number. This was our Christmas outing with our adult son and friends. When we arrived, the waitress seemed confused about our reservation, told a man who was either the chef, a manager? who simply rolled his eyes and walked away. Then waitress, who was very apologetic, said they had no booking for us and they couldn't serve us. As we looked round the pub, we realised NO ONE was eating and they were not serving food at all. We will never go to this pub again. Unreliable and no one seems in charge.

On first impression this is a lovely pub refurbished to a high standard. It has wood burning stoves, beams and beautiful stone and wood floors. There is a pool table and nice comfortable armchairs. There is even a small library area. We had lunch here after a walk with a large group. The staff were helpful and friendly. Some of us enjoyed the meals and some were a little disappointed. The Mac and cheese was very dry and the sausage and mash was swamped in gravy, gravy on the side is much better. There is plenty of parking available. The toilets were modern and very clean. Nice garden. Definitely worth a visit especially on a cold evening when the log burners would be lovely.

Arrived at approx 8PM on a Monday evening after a 4hr drive. Had the hotel booked for many weeks. Checked in and only two people in the whole place, one a local and the other was the barmaid. Said the restaurant was closed and no other options for food except a 15 min drive to their sister. Pub. wasn’t happy but accepted it. Then there was no iron in my room to iron my clothes for me my meeting the following day. Asked for one and was told there wasn’t any at all on the premises so I left straight away and found a local hotel with the usual expected facilities. Won’t be returning. Barmaid was nice and pleasant is the only nice thing I can say. Shame as it has great potential. Voir le carte
