"We enjoyed a wonderful family meal at this restaurant. The riverside section offers fantastic views of the River Wye, particularly in the summer, or if you're dining early in the day. While the food leans towards the pricier side, it serves a sophisticated twist on traditional pub fare, making it good value for both the quality and portion sizes. I had the YOFI burger along with onion rings, and I must say, the burger was enormous! I have a hearty appetite and had been walking for hours, yet I still had to take my time with it. The onion rings were absolutely outstanding – big, fresh, and crispy. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was pleasant. I highly recommend this place!"

"We had an excellent meal at the Stonemill, although with a few features that may be worthy of comment. We were welcomed and shown to our table, and after about half an hour a complimentary portion of breaded whitebait and tartare sauce arrived off limits, sadly, to my wife, who is coeliac, but gratefully scoffed by me lovely big juicy fish and good sauce. After another 10 minutes, and having seen people who had arrived after us placing their orders (always annoying, that , we got a bit impatient and went in search of some staff. Our order was taken, and after another 15 minutes more complimentary things arrived broad bean and caramelised onion purée, which married the beany bitterness and sweet oniony caramel very nicely. In another 10 minutes some likewise unexpected bread, oil and vinegar arrived we explained (again that my wife needed something gluten free, so some suitable rolls were duly found and provided. These proved still to be frozen inside, although given the timescales we were working to, they had plenty of time to defrost. Then the actual food started arriving, all of which was superb (although, on a small point of Italian grammar, Arancini is plural if you 're only getting one, it 's an Arancino . Mains were lamb (Madame and sole (me , and a special word about the green veg, which is not always British restaurants ' strong point, but here was succulent and just al dente. Our house Romanian red was earthy and piquant, and slipped down very nicely. Stuffed to the gills as we were with multiple starters, we skipped the puds and just got the bill which, when it arrived, was £49. I did think (who wouldn 't? of paying up and running, but, being honest folk, we felt bound to point out that, haphazard service notwithstanding, it should probably be at least twice that amount. Unfortunately (for the restaurant, not us tips could not be added to the amount on the card machine, but could only be left as cash, so sadly in these cashless, contactless times they had to go without. So an all round 5 stars for food, a solid 3 for service, given that they made amends for their slowness with lots of extra goodies."

"First and last meal we had at the Hostelrie. The food was subpar and absolutely not worth the price, meat was extremely fatty and the rest of the food was bland. The worst thing about the Hostelrie is the staff. I’ve never come across such rude and passive aggressive people. The manager, who I assume to be Katherine- the very passive aggressive woman responding to these honest reviews requires some lessons in decorum and basic manners. She is a very unpleasant and unprofessional woman. They served a tiny vegetable ‘platter’ for 4 people, therefore we politely requested another, the waitress responded ‘yes’ and walked away. We received the platter once we had finished the edible parts of our food so we no longer needed it. The waitresses and manager outright lied and claimed we were told there would be a wait on the vegetables and rudely stated we had to pay for it. Believe these reviews and give your money to restaurants that deserve it. There was also only one other table occupied at 3pm on a Sunday before Christmas- says it all really…"

"I adore The Potting Shed! It had been a while since my last visit, but I recently stopped by and was delighted to see the wonderful owners, Paul and Shelley, serving up a fantastic lunch. The food was excellent, and it was a pleasure to catch up with them both. I will definitely be returning soon. If you're in the area, be sure to check out The Potting Shed. Their service, food, and atmosphere all receive a perfect score of 5! The price per person for lunch is typically £10-£20."

"This family run hotel is a must for anyone visiting the area and especially if you bring your four legged friend. From the moment you arrive to the minute you leave , there is nothing that is too much trouble. Our room was so comfortable, quiet and relaxing. The food gives you warmth and a hug of happiness! Breakfast is one of the best I’ve had made with the freshest ingredients. My only problem was not staying long enough!!! This truly is a gem in the beauty that is the Wye valley. The old court truely is the place you tell your friends you will return to .."
