"i have been to the tea room at Kiplin Hall 3 times now, last year 2017 was rubbish because of no supervision of the teenagers they employed and the silly ipad type of ordering, neither of which worked. I have just been for the first time this year and it was a lot better organised, the waiting staff were more 'on the ball ', polite and paper ordering pads, so ok at the moment. the lady at the till was more polite than last year 's very rude lady, the cheese scone and tea were ok. the toilet is ok, but could be cleaner, the outside toilets they have are not good at all, cold and unclean and it 's the beginning of the season so should not be like that. the manager 's of Kiplin Hall needs to get their act together and get some cleaning done and keep it clean, and the 'doggy ' smell in the back hall where the toilets are (inside) is not good and was the same last year, which is why we didn 't go back after our 2 bad visits."

"I stumbled upon this pub by chance and decided to check it out from the outside. The following week, we returned, but the bartender informed us they didn't start serving food until 6 PM. So, we took some time to look over the menu. I’m not a fan of seafood, but I ended up enjoying the beer-battered cauliflower. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the restaurant opened right on time!"

"Visited Easter Sunday for lunch with my wife and teenage boys. Arrived early and asked about our reservation. Table was not ready but were offered a table to have a drink and browse the menu while we waited for our table to be ready. Selection of food was good and reasonably priced against others in the area, we had carried put research before booking as some in our party can be fussy. Had heard about long waits for the food but after being shown to our table we were eating at, order taken and food arriving we waited less that 30 minutes. Food was lovely, we had two traditional beef and two roast chicken. Both roast chicken eaters were concerned it was going to arrive on the bone but that wasnt the case. We all almost cleared our plates with minimal fuss from the teenagers and ordered four different desserts, each one demolished. All the staff we encountered throughout our visit were polite, well turned out and friendly. Although 45 minutes from our home address we will be visiting again and have told friends of out positive all round experience."

"Firstly, The Bridgewater Arms in Winston is simply exquisite! Such a beautiful historic and county pub, although it is so much more than that! I feel like I am belittling it by calling it a pub. From the outside shows the old schools original features and including the school bell located proudly outside one of the doors. From going inside to being warmly welcomed by Tom and Christine in the bar with a roaring fire, beautifully decorated bar and when asking for a drink comes a beautiful list of real ales and various wines for everyone's taste, including what you would expect from a country pub so I stuck to my strong pint of Diet Coke due to driving duties, so there is something for all the family. They had a beautiful menu to suit all taste buds and from what I had heard, the food was excellent but I did not realise it was going to be as good as it was! The duck was suculant and simply divine! Accompanied with butternut squash, confit potatoes and a rich plum sauce to which I could have had a pint of on it own! It was beautiful! The warm bar with its stunning decor kept us in the bar for hours before departing. Tom and Christine ensuring we were all OK and if we needed anything else, they were not far away to cater our needs. We all left extremely happy and full. We will definetly be back very soon! Thank you for a lovely evening, Tom, Christine and all the staff at The Bridgewater Arms."

"Not sure what’s going on here… Has the chef gone on holiday? Left for good? This place came highly recommended by the hosts of the Airbnb we stayed at locally, and the five star Tripadvisor reviews speak for themselves. We were really looking forward to it. When most of the menu is given in Italian your expectations are set a bit beyond home cooked pub grub. But that’s exactly what we got. The steak was overcooked. As was the duck breast. The veg was undercooked. The thin and watery sauces were served in milk jugs. The potatoes reheated in the microwave. And these dishes were expensive… Desserts were okay. The setting wouldn’t get me returning either- a noisy village boozer with little effort at creating an ambience. Not for me."
