"Stopped off here today looking for a pub lunch for 2 adults, a 2 year old and a 6 year old. Was confident that we would get a good meal and service as the vast majority of reviews on here and google are really positive. Think we must have visited on an off day. Entered the pub, and the gentleman behind the bar was clearly trying to eat his lunch and did not acknowledge us. I then asked if we could have a table for lunch, and was told to sit anywhere and order at the bar. We seated ourselves, and I then spent 5 minutes looking at the menu boards which seemed to be geared more to an evening service. The gentleman behind the bar was watching as I did this but said nothing. I then found a pile of menus on the bar why he couldn’t have said “take a seat, the menus are here” I do not know. We then ordered two kids meals and 2 adult bbq chicken baps, along with drinks. The food and drinks were fairly priced. I then asked a member of staff if they had a high chair, and was told she didn’t think they did. A couple of minutes later she returned saying “there is a high chair at the back there” so I went and collected one, making sure I didn’t hit the bar or any other customers. As a parent, it would have been nice if she could have just brought it up to our table for us. No issues with the kids food at all, good size portions and they ate almost all of it. Our food was a bit lacklustre I was expecting a fresh (possibly toasted) roll with chicken, melted cheese, bbq sauce, lettuce and mayo. The roll was at best supermarket quality, and the cheese was a square slice from a packet just placed on there. The chips were good though, but due to the lack of customer service and the quality of the “adult food” we won’t be visiting again."
