Good food, but expensive and sometimes let down by the waiting staff. Bill is the front of house manager and is very welcoming.

We came here as a family for my mum and dads wedding anniversary, I haven’t been here for many years and since I last went, it has been taken over by new owners, we all sat down and had a beautiful meal and the service...was great. Such a lovely place in a beautiful countryside. Staff very polite also. Will definately return.More
We have been dining at the Dog & Hedgehog since 1970s on and off. Absolutely gutted that it will be closing. One of the best restaurants in the area in my opinion. Made extra special by Bill the general manager. What a character he is!...Happy retirement Bill, you will be missed xxMore
As usual had a fantastic Sunday lunch. Have been a customer here for the last 13 years since Bill took over. Sad to hear he is retiring in 2 weeks and the pub will be closing. Bill and the excellent food at The Dog &...Hedgehog will be missed.More
Brilliant as usual but the owner told us he was shutting and retiring on February 4th. It won't be opening again until he sells it. Very sad but happy retirement.
Excellent lunch - we haven’t been for several years but the service was excellent. We will certainly go again.
Excellent food & service - whitebait best ever , fish & chips huge portion and tasty, pie FULL of meat , ham hock delicious, staff attentive , no room for desert lol
After many years four of us decided to meet for a meal here. We all ordered something different from the others. Service was excellent with the meals arriving together which at many places does not happen. All of us enjoyed the meal so much we...have booked to return next month.More
We were on a canal holiday and decided to try this pub. We are so glad we did- we cannot praise it enough, all the staff made a fuss of our dog, even had special dog treats. We were made welcome and all the staff...including the brilliant Landlord made time to talk to us. The food was excellent, we both had calves liver, beautifully cooked. The desserts were also delicious. The pub itself was nicely decorated and spotless clean. We tried to go there again on return trip but it was a Sunday so they were closed in the evening. Can’t fault it, only wished we lived nearer!More
We arrived to find a very well situated pub with lovely countryside views and ample parking. The premises were presented to a high standard, light airy, nicely furnished and tastefully decorated. We took friends for a special lunch and were met by a very dapper...host, who after seeing off another party with handshakes for the men and hugs and kisses for the ladies greeted us like old friends. Two of our party ordered gammon, including myself. Oh dear! There it was, the smallest piece of gammon I have ever seen, hiding under an egg, a small egg at that, a desert spoonful of peas and 10 insipid looking chips which had clearly been kept warm for quite a while. The other two had sausage and mash which was better, but two sausages, really! We didn't make a fuss as it was a special day not to be spoiled further. Needless to say, we won't be returning.More
Our family came to The Dog for Sunday lunch as a group of 12. Food and service were great. They catered to my gluten free diet very well, with plenty to choose from, including gluten free gravy for the Sunday roast. Overall a wonderful meal...and would certainly return.More
Saturday lunchtime after a lovely walk we all selected different meals, all were fresh and flavoursome. The desserts were even better. Atmosphere was friendly and welcoming we will soon be returning.
Visited here with a friend for dinner. Starters arrived and were fine, main course was mussels. I discreetly went to the bar to mention I felt that my meal had a funny aftertaste, mussels are not something I would chance if I felt they were...not fresh. Manager was patronising, he then proceeded to get my dish to pass around the staff to sniff. This was both embarrassing and intimidating. My friend then admitted he had made a comment when we initially received our meals that he had “sprinkled with gluten”, I am gluten intolerant and at this point we settled the slightly reduced bill and left. The Hercules 5 minutes down the road was far more accommodating and reassuring on their handling of allergies.More
Great food, excellent host & wonderful atmosphere. Will def be going back - this time with friends.
Went for a family Sunday lunch to celebrate my husbands 70th birthday so there was 10 of us We booked at short notice as our BBQ plans were scuppered by the awful weather Despite fitting us in we were made to feel welcome and had...a very nice table with a window overlooking fields with horses in. The adults all had Sunday roast which was served up quickly was hot and tasty with plenty of side dishes of veg (no extra charge) which is unusual these days! The children had smaller portions or something off the kids menu...nothing was too much trouble. The service was second to none and the drinks were reasonably priced too. We had brought in a special cake for my husband and they brought it to the table whilst we all sang happy birthday it was lovely All in all it was a lovely meal with white tablecloths and roses on the table which made it seem so special Thankyou again d&g for a lovely time spent in your great restaurant We will definitely come backMore
