"A shame. A mixture of potential and disappointment we left not wanting to return a 3rd time. Tried to book 4 times to no avail. Arrived to be treated with almost contempt at asking where we could sit. Fab location. Park outside of the village to avoid big problems. Bring bug repellant and tool kit for rotting tables if you intend on braving the back jungle. Lack of serviceable space outdoors. Derelict rear garden, dirty loos, unhelpful and confused staff, chef swearing at the chaos. Lost order tickets, 2 hour wait for food. Very very helpful and cheerful young kitchen assistant. A real asset to the business. Much of the food was observed as frozen supermarket food brought out from the back, heated on outdoor temporary though seemingly now permanent kitchen and presented as fresh meals. The pork which appeared fresh was however tasty. Beautiful spot but honestly not worth the hassle, wait or chaos in future. Service: 1 Location: 4"

we left today. pub after a fire still refreshing. really wonderful. No kitchen yet, but they work on it. fabulous music (blue,) warm and welcoming staff/owner. chef has a shed outside cooking amazing eating. I had grilled chickens and my wife had snuggles. they were both delicious. I wonder what he could do with a full kitchen. the best pub I've been in for a long time. I felt like in France.

CHECK THE OPENING TIMES AND CALL IF UNSURE!!!! If it is open, you're in for a treat!!! Proper country pub with good if expensive (the chef is a genius tho so expect that on top of his excellency). Good beers and a nice atmosphere make for a once in a lifetime pub visit. Walkability: Pretty close but no parking and a bit dicey late at night. Only in a empty country roads kinda way though Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5 Hotel highlights: Quiet

Lots of history entwined within and the team here seem to be doing all they can to run a somewhat unique offering in a unique location. Didn’t have a problem with reservations or being accommodated on a walk in basis. French chef producing great no fuss dishes! Wood fire roasted chicken, sea bream, pizza, octopus! Their garlic aioli superb. So what if it takes some time at peak dinner time for food to come out! Enjoy the ambience and the venue and a pint. Oh, and get the Provence Rose! Service: 5 Location: 5

"The positive is that the food is good. But the negative is the service time and the attitude of the staff. We were seated and had our order taken after 20 minutes. A little slow but it was a busy Saturday evening so understandable. Starters came promptly and were eaten. We then got ignored by every passing member of staff for at least 50 minutes. Quite the skill! Once there was a break in our conversation and I realised how long it had been, I stood up to intercept a waitress and asked “are our mains on the way, please?” Our ticket was checked by her at the kitchen hatch and we were told “yes”. At this point our starter plates were cleared after they had sat on the table for at least 35 minutes. Our mains then took another 25 minutes to get to us, so I suspect that being told they were on their way was a lie. To be clear: we were given our mains 1hr 20 mins after placing our order. I complained to a waitress who sent over a manager. The manager asked if we’d had starters (yes, we had) and said that it was our fault our main was so late as we’d had a first course. How insulting!!! Blaming the customer for their bad service. Disgusting. When I said it was still far too long to wait between courses she then changed tack and said the kitchen was “really really busy” well, they weren’t busy cooking our food now were they?! And despite the place being full when we arrived, by this point of the night over half the tables were empty. There were 3 tickets on the pass along with ours and tables were 2 4 people (no large groups) so I feel that was also another lie to get out of it. What a shocking way to treat customers! My advice to you is: if you want your food served in a timely manner, either take the advice of the manager and don’t order a starter, or, be sure to communicate with waitstaff once your first course is finished and ask for your main to be cooked and served promptly. (Note: food also sat under the heat lamps for long lengths of time as staff stood socialising with one another behind the bar rather than serve customers) I hope this advice is of use as I would have appreciated it ahead of my visit! Good luck. [Reading other reviews, ours is not the only experience of slow service and seeing staff chat to one another rather than deal with the customers paying their wages. Would be interested to receive a reply to this review]"
