"We were looking forward to a Friday meal out as a treat at our local. It was a disappointing evening overall. Welcome was non existent, shown to our table, menu hasn’t changed much. Drinks arrived We had a starter to share Two mains (food quality poor) And a bottle of wine No check back, is all ok? No service at all really Plates cleared, then nothing for half an hour. Lack lustre service that evening, felt like no one cared and we were forgotten about which was a shame. No dessert menus, coffees or more drinks. We were prepared to spend another £40-£50 pounds that evening, but nothing. Such a shame, as we love supporting local and would much rather this than going to a chain restaurant in town. We spent £100 on what we had and could have and would have spent more. But the service was not great, not engaging. It’s hard to review when you work in the industry, it’s such a challenging time for hospitality at the moment, but we don’t help ourselves. Good service isn’t hard, and at the end of the day it’s the service and experience you pay for which was sadly lacking on this occasion."

This was the best sea bream dish I had for a long time. It was cooked to perfection! Coffee and apple/tarte crumble were delicious to finish the meal too.

Booked a family party of 14 for Sunday lunch. Brilliant food, service and atmosphere. Coped well with allergy requirements. You need to book in advance as very busy. Highly recommended

First rate service food is what you would expect from a high end restaurant. Can’t rate it enough have been there several times with friends who live locally and use it regularly. Look forward to our next visit.

Can't fault this experience at all. We shared a starter on a previous recommendation in order to enjoy our main courses, Halibut and Rabbit pie, delicious. Had room for a shared dessert too, honeycomb cheesecake, yummy. Will definitely return, 2 course Sunday lunch sounds good.

Not surprised that this pub has become so popular. Very friendly and helpful team of staff, excellent menu choice, probably with something to suit most tastes. Yes, there are probably more elaborate food establishments nearby, but this gets my 5* award for overall combination of food quality, staff and value for money Would certainly not hesitate to recommend.

The soup was a little cool and the calamari slightly overcooked The main dishes were well presented and good. Haddock and chips and the salmon were good The chips were not great but we were at the end of the lunch serving. Service was attentive but overall this is currently not out of the ordinary However we are blessed in this area with several food places to eat so the competition is strong. Recommend but arrive earlier that we did.

Had not visited the Highwayman for quite some years, but it has been consistently recommended by friends so we went for lunch. Warm cosy atmosphere with big log stove very relaxing. Chose from a la carte menu (there is also a set lunch choice) as prices reasonable. Excellent meal and faultless service. Duck for main was plentiful and cooked to perfection for me. Wife 's fish and chips also 'perfect '. We are looking forward to going back.

Went back for lunch after a business meeting. Asked for a quieter table we went through to the spacious back bar which was ideal. Service very attentive despite it being pretty busy. The menu was varied enticing. We had home made scotch egg which was excellent but very filling making the tremendous open pies hard but enjoyable to finish afterwards. No room for desserts but the staff were very keen to know that we had enjoyed our meals and we left feeling full and thoroughly well served.

I attended a wedding reception in the blazing September sunshine in the absolutely stunning setting of The Highwayman garden. It is a truly beautiful spot with breathtaking views of the open countryside along with an extremely well planted and tended garden. I have titled this review faultless because it was. The Highwayman staff were utterly amazing with first class attentive, efficient service alongside the most delicious food. It was without doubt faultless and I highly recommend this establishment.
