"We have visited this pub many times without any issues, but this time everything seemed to go wrong. It took a long time for our orders to be taken. There were seven of us at the table, but when the starters arrived, we were two short and had to follow up with the staff. By the time they finally arrived, the others had mostly finished theirs. The main courses also took a long time to come out. Two of the medium steaks looked overcooked! I’m not sure if the staff heard our comments or if they were already aware, but they brought us two more medium steaks. To their credit, our waiter was very apologetic about the situation, and the management didn’t charge us for the missing starters. We ended up having three bottles of wine throughout the evening, mainly due to the lengthy waits between courses, and the management even waived the charge for one of them. Overall, it was a disappointing evening at The Star, but we would still consider returning since it’s a convenient halfway point for us and our friends, and we’ve never had a bad meal there before. Let’s hope it was just a one-off incident."

Great food and service! The pub is quite spacious and was bustling, so it can get a little noisy, but overall, it was a lovely evening out.

The food and service were excellent. The pub is quite spacious and was bustling with activity, which made it a bit noisy, but overall, it was a lovely evening. Voir le carte

We had to wait a long time to be served, both for drinks and to place our orders. The food itself was quite disappointing; I ordered the fish and chips, which lacked flavor. My friend and I shared a baked camembert as an appetizer, but there wasn't enough bread to accompany the cheese, leaving us with half of it uneaten. On the other hand, my friend enjoyed the lamb, which he found satisfactory.

Our experience at the restaurant was marred by lengthy waits for both our orders to be taken and for courses to arrive. The food was underwhelming; I ordered fish and chips, and it lacked flavor. My boyfriend and I shared a baked Camembert as a starter, but there wasn't enough bread to accompany the cheese, leaving half of it uneaten. On a positive note, my friend enjoyed the lamb shank he ordered.

The main courses took just as long to arrive. Two of the medium steaks looked like they had been poorly prepared. I'm not sure if the staff noticed our disappointment or overheard our comments, but they did bring us two additional steaks cooked to medium. To their credit, our waiter was very apologetic about the whole situation, and they did not charge us for the two late starters. We ended up having three bottles of wine that evening, primarily due to the extended waiting times between courses, and the management graciously did not charge us for one of them.

"Went here to celebrate a couple of friends birthdays and had a very mixed evening. It was a Monday night so it was quiet and we were one of only a handful of tables. We were a party of four and there were no tables any larger than ours in that evening. We were seated quickly and that was about the one and only thing that happened all night with any kind of urgency. Our orders were taken and we were waiting 20 minutes or more for our first round of drinks. About half way through this, we were informed that three of the four meals we had ordered were sold out (something you'd think we'd have been informed of at the time of ordering . We thought we could quench our thirst with some water whilst waiting for our drinks but sadly no one ever came over to refill our glasses. When the food finally arrived it was delicious and I couldn't fault it at all (even if it wasn't my first choice on the menu! , so that made up for lack of service. We ordered a dessert each although only 3 of them arrived. My friend had to ask for her coffee which also didn't have any signs of showing and then when her dessert didn't show she just gave up on it (it was never put through the system . I ordered a glass of red wine, specifying the wine and was given a glass of what I assume was house red at least I wasn't mis charged for it as it was cheaper than the one I ordered! Even paying the bill was an ordeal, taking us a while to get it and then having to go through line by line to see if any of the food we ordered and didn't get hadn't been taken off (there was one additional meal on the bill . All in all a bit of a shambles but at least the delicious food and the wonderful company meant it didn't dampen our evening too much. Don't think I'd come back on a quiet night again, seems the service staff take it as a sign to disappear."
