The Bushel And Strike

Although the decor is somewhat dated , we were surprised by the lovely food and exceptional service. Myself and family have come back a couple of times now and it never disappoints! :

Characterless pub lacking any original features. Decor more like a hotel lobby. Plastic ivy particularly naff. First impression was baskets of dirty glasses on the bar and a stack of unused chairs. No staff to welcome you.

I made a reservation for Christmas dinner in early November and paid a deposit. Unfortunately, I found out at the last minute that the reservation had been cancelled. I have been trying to get my deposit back by sending numerous emails. Visualizza piatti

Although the decor leaves somewhat to be desired due to jt being slightly dated, my family and I were surprised to receive lovely food and exceptional service. We have been back multiple times since and it has become our new local place to eat. This place never disappoints! :

From the moment we entered, the bar staff were super friendly and helpful. My kids were given the ok to share an Adult burger which was great. The food was lovely, and the service was fantastic. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a lovely place to enjoy a relaxing meal.

We haven’t been here since before Covid and then it was rather a ‘beefburger’ type pub. Before that in another life it was very much up market. So we were pleasantly surprised to find a lovely clean new decor pub. Very nice Sauvignon wine. Will hopefully give it 5 stars when we return for a meal. Visualizza piatti

We arrived for our group Christmas lunch on Thursday, December 14, 2023, only to find out that the restaurant was closed without any prior notification. The staff informed us in the parking lot that the pub had shut down. This lack of communication has severely damaged the reputation of what was once a great establishment. Luckily, The Three Tuns nearby was able to accommodate our group of nine with only 15 minutes notice.

Should be such a nice pub but the owners lack any understanding of customer service. We were left standing at the bar and being ignored when we arrived and after showing our frustration, we were told that if we didn’t like it, then we should leave. We stayed ! to have a couple of drinks only to discover that much of what we asked for beer, diet tonic water and peanuts was out of stock and then left. We shall not be returning under the current management.

My wife and I picked up two family friends, one 90 years old and the other 86, and drove to the Bushel and Strike for lunch today. However, upon our arrival, we found a sign on the door stating it was closed until further notice. After knocking on the door, we were informed that the restaurant was moving out. This lunch had been booked over the phone weeks in advance, so I was very disappointed that we were not contacted about the closure. I was extremely upset and felt that there was no regard for our reservation. This experience was a letdown and I will not be returning. - Neil Schooling. P.S. NEVER AGAIN. Visualizza piatti
