The Griffin Inn - Piatti

Have not been back to the Griffin since it was sold. So glad we did, still has a great atmosphere.Food was all very good and the service was great. We will be back.

A really enjoyable lunch in very convivial surroundings with excellent service. The menu provided a superb selection of different dishes and my partner, and I were delighted by the experience. I was so impressed I have just booked to lunch there again in two weeks’ time.

Thank you for a lovely lunch on Boxing Day and for dealing with our large party so efficiently.My husbands 60th was made all the more memorable by coming for lunch ,lovely food and very lovely staff .The Griffin has always been one of our favourite pubs so we will be back . Visualizza piatti

I met my daughter for dinner, which was absolutely excellent. Daughter greatly enjoyed the pie whilst my trout was perfectly cooked and very filling. We both rated the fig and chestnut crumble very highly. I stayed overnight in a smart, clean and comfortable room with a brilliant roll top bath and lashings of hot water. Staff were efficient and friendly. Highly recommended and aim to return in the spring.

Went for dinner on a Saturday night, with a booked table. The food was okay but pretty unexciting and very expensive for the price point. Service was poor to the point of being virtually non-existent and the limited staff available seemed rather overwhelmed. Much of the pub was cold and insufficient effort was being made to keep fires going. The quality of the place appears to have really deteriorated since being taken over by Youngs, sadly

Absolutely outstanding. Tommy and Felip made our stay wonderful. All of the staff are great. Tommy's service at breakfast this morning was kind, caring and just couldn't do enough for us. The help Felip gave with our reservation was really great. Our room The Simon de Montfort was warm and cosy and absolutely everything we needed. With a really comy bed. Breakfast was just amazing so much choice We cannot wait to come back, and we definitely will !!! Outstanding views from the gardens Visualizza piatti

Having made a reservation for 7.30 on Saturday night to celebrate a memorable event, we were greeted by being told emphatically that we didn’t have a reservation and therefore there was no room, I showed my confirmation of our booking on my phone and we were shown to the bar area to a small table near the door, no apology for the fact that they hadn’t got a table for us in the restaurant. The food was very good, but the ambience and our greeting really spoiled what should have been a lovely evening for us. The bill of £102 for 2 courses only rubs salt in the wound.

We expected an old English village pub and was not disappointed however we felt the atmosphere was flat. The staff on duty did their job and if it was a tick box exercise then they ticked the boxes, unable to add names as they never introduced themselves which does make a difference to guests whether staying at the hotel or just in for a meal and drinks. If the Griffin is run as a hotel then it needs a welcoming agenda not just a hello and I’ll seat you. Sadly the food didn’t live up to the cost particularly the rib eye steak really need to look at the pricing structure. The big question is whether we would return for a second visit and currently the answer is no.

We booked ahead for 6 people at lunchtime. We had our 2 granddaughters aged 5 and 3 with us. We were seated in the pub section rather than the restaurant because of the children. After 15 minutes We had to ask to be served drinks. We then had to ask for a menu. We Put in a very uncomplicated order burgers, sausages and some prawns. We had to ask for water which had been forgotten and then we were left for over an hour. Honestly the food was okish. However all they needed to do was communicate. Telling us after an hour and 20 minutes after we arrived that they were sorry they were busy is very poor. Don’t take bookings for the same time if you can’t manage them. Don’t leave children for over... Visualizza piatti
