"Celebrated my niece’s Birthday and came back to celebrate mine with family and friends. It was live music night, which they informed us of when booking. I was fine with that as the restaurant is the other side of the pub, well away from the band, so it wouldn’t really bother us. We arrived and a member of staff showed us to our table, but instead of being take to the restaurant we were taken around the corner to a table right next to the music. We were the only people who were sat on this side of the pub that evening. As we headed towards the table the member of staff said” You’d better be quick in case people take your table” ??? Never had to worry about losing a reservation from other people in a pub before? How to describe where we were sat. We sat in the main thoroughfare to the toilets. I myself was sat at the end of the table so close to the ladies toilet that I could, if I so wished, open the ladies toilet door from my seat. Women negotiated around my chair to go to the loo. Drinkers congregated in the walkway basically standing directly over us dining, my sister had drunk men placing pints down on her part of the table while she was eating and bumping into her, in her own words “ If one more person leans into me I’m going to lose it” The music was so loud where we were we gave up trying to chat to each other at times. When we booked they never once mentioned where they’d be seating us and I would have said no immediately if they’d told me that when I booked and would have gone elsewhere as I know the pub very well and never in a million years would I want to have sat there during a Friday night of live music. I had considered just leaving, but people were hungry and not long finished work and they needed to eat and trying to book for so many of us last minute would have been impossible. The food. I’m not sure it’s the same chef as we had a month ago, I could be wrong, but the difference was surprising. My steak pie again was great, but one of our group had a burger and said it was “disgusting” Two members of the group had coleslaw with their meals and I was shown both, untouched by them, it was grated cabbage and carrot in a small dish, dry, with no mayonnaise and the veg was curled and dry to the touch as if the “coleslaw” had been standing out for hours. Every person who had chips said the same thing, it was like a child’s portion, the amount of chips on each plate was a joke. Others weren’t overly impressed with elements of their food. It was all so good a month earlier. I do also have to say that later in the evening I had the misfortune of talking to the chef, I’m sure it’s not the same guy as I spoke to before, I mistook him as a member of the bar staff, in my defence he was behind the bar quite a few times while I was there. I asked this man a non food related question and just got attitude from him, you would have sworn he owned the place, he was rude and condescending to such an extent that mid conversation I turned my back on him as I refuse to be spoken to by anyone that way. Maybe I’d suggest keep him away from customers, and coleslaw obviously. I have to end by saying the staff were excellent as always, with a special mention to Emily behind the bar, friendly, helpful and a real asset to The Red Kite. So, our meal was ruined by The Red Kite squeezing people in to maximise profit, a very short term gain that will cost in the long term. We have already started to organise our next get together but it won’t be at The Red Kite. I said in my last review that I’d be back, I came back, but I won’t again."

I recently had Sunday carvery at this restaurant and it was delicious. The portions of slow-cooked meat were huge and the cauliflower cheese was also really good. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I will definitely be returning in the future.

We had a meal here last Saturday evening. We intended to have a dessert as well but honestly the portions were so big we had no room for one! The staff were pleasant and helpful. And I have to say the food was piping hot, even near the end of the meal the food was steaming with heat.

Upon arrival for Sunday lunch, we were not provided with any menus. While the service was fast, some of the staff were loud, rude, and wearing dirty clothing/uniforms. The meat was dry, vegetables were tasteless, and the only warm gravy was not great. Additionally, all the food was served on cold plates, so by the time it reached the table, it was barely lukewarm. Overall, it was a very disappointing and poor meal. I would not recommend this restaurant and will not be returning.

I booked one night and of course dinner too as there is nothing else nearby. Mainly it’s a pub with rooms on the road. The room was clean and pleasant, the bathroom tiny but functional. Wifi was good. Breakfast is not included and anyway they began too late for me. Dinner was good, with the typical pub menu. I had a soup, lemon sea bass filet with chips and mint cheese cake, all home made and tasty. The owners are very kind. There is parking on the premises. The price for the room was very good (55£ , the meal relatively expensive.

Really, really wanted a carvery. Did a Google and The Red Kite came up. We didn't check out reviews because we'd been here before with relatives last year on a weeknight. Remembering how much we enjoyed our first visit we decided to have carvery today. I had a stroke last year which has left me disabled and from the moment we arrived the staff greeted us and checked I was safely navigated to my seat. (Disabled access is limited so check first). Chef came out to suggest how we get me plated up and served easily. Plate arrived and it was chock a block with vegetables and meat. All very tasty. Turkey was a little dry but assuming it had been kept hot for a while and we got there mid afternoon b...

We visited the Red Kite restaurant on a bank holiday Monday after reading positive reviews of local pubs. We were not disappointed. Our table was ready upon our arrival and we were seated promptly in the stylish restaurant area. Our drinks were quickly ordered and delivered to our table. The menu offers a variety of exceptional options to suit all tastes. I started with cheesy garlic bread, which was a generous portion. My companion had the garlic mushrooms, which were beautifully presented and delicious. For our main courses, I enjoyed the hunters chicken, which was fantastic. My companion had the pan-fried chicken in a white wine, garlic, and tarragon sauce, which was also excellent. We in...
