"I had the most disappointing Indian meal in years at this restaurant. The samosa was tiny and lacked meat, priced at £3.95 for just two pieces. The onion bhajis were also £3.95 for a portion of two, and the bhindi portion was only a few spoonfuls for £3.75. The prawn on puri was not much better, with small shrimp on slightly larger prawn crackers. The tandoori mixed grill was a letdown at £12.95, with dry slices of lamb and chicken, a small seekh kebab, and a piece of chicken that looked old. The food was cold and dry, and most of it ended up in the bin. I would never return here after spending over £45 on such a lackluster meal. It's clear that the restaurant lacks quality and care in their dishes. I would not recommend dining here."

"I booked this restaurant for my parents' anniversary party and it could not have been better. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and everyone enjoyed the hot buffet food. The pub is charming and despite being in the countryside, it is easily accessible from the A303. Thank you for all the effort you put into making it a special day for them.

"Excellent place to break up a long journey. Staff welcoming and helpful. The rooms we were given was generous and comfortable, we both slept very well. Dinner was ok. My other half didn 't fancy anything on the menu so went for a safe bet of scampi and chips which were exactly as they should be. I had rump steak cooked rare and it was perfect. I chose the pepper sauce which arrived cold so had to be sent back to be heated and the chips, truffle ones recommended by our waitress, arrived plain and also had to be re-ordered. These two items seemed to take ages to rectify by which time my steak and mushroom were cold and my husband had eaten his. To add to the disappointment I thought the truffle chips although delightfully crisp, hot and molten inside I found most unpleasant. That I didn 't like them is purely subjective and absolutely no reflection on the cooking. We skipped puds. The service was lovely and the whole place has a great ambience. Breakfast was filling and again service was brilliant. A good place to stay... Rooms: Very comfortable bed. Plenty of room. Interlined curtains and chilled water. The bathroom could have done with a thorough clean, specially around the taps and the toilet needed a jolly good scrub, if it 's not practical to use a heavy weight cleaner a large bottle of malt vinegar for 12 hours and then a good clean would certainly improve the cleanliness. Safety: All thought through although there are lots of small steps you 'd expect in a building this age so those not so good on their pins need to take extra care. All are clearly marked 'mind the step(s) ' and are marked with boldish white lines on the carpet. All the corridors are well lit."

"During our weekend break in November 2023, we encountered some minor issues upon checking in to our first room at the restaurant. Despite a filthy shower screen and a broken window that wouldn't shut, the staff promptly addressed these issues and we were moved to a new room. We also had to request a mattress protector for the new room. The cleanliness of the bathrooms could be improved. However, we found the bar to be nice, the food to be very good, and the staff to be friendly and helpful. We particularly enjoyed the roast dinner on Sunday, which was delicious and generous in portion size. The breakfast selection was good as well. Overall, we had a pleasant stay despite these minor inconveniences."

"They have a vegan menu so I thought I can have a good vegan meal here. Oh boy I was wrong. I had mushroom soup which was nice with 2 slices of bread.. The soup came with butter. I dared to ask if it vegan as well. The girl who served us went to the kitchen to ask and I overhead the loud conversation when a guy told oh just tell her it 's vegan . I 'm lactose intolerant.... The falafel burger was very undercooked and mushy. The meal was suppose to come with tzatziki but as its not vegan instead of giving you something else, they just give the very small bowl of chip as standered. My husband had a burger. It was a tiny portion also his burger was burned so badly be didn 't finish it even though he was very hungry. The onion rings were okay. We had a drink each and paid £61. Not worth the money. The waiters were fine."
