Amazing starters, amazing steak, waiting staff a little slow, but the food made up for it! More

We visited The Willow Tree one evneing whilst we stayed in the area for a short break. We had no idea what to expect when we walked in to order a meal, but the warm welcome and tasteful decor was the first part of a wonderful dining experience. All the food is cooked by the Chef who is also the... More

Great people, great beer (Handley's Beer made by Brett on the premises) and of course, great food. The large steak and ale pie, which comes with a jug of gravy, is awesome! You just have to try it..... Have eaten here of many occasions and every time is perfect. What else can I say! Thanks Brett and Kathryn, I'll be... More

We bike down to the Willow Tree as often as we can as the food is the best pub food we have found for miles! The service is always second to none.

The staff are attentive, but not intrusive, the service was excellent. There are some excellent real ales and Thatchers cider is also sold on draught. My only... More

I stayed at the Willows B&B next door to this pub, so had a few evening meals / drinks in the Willow Tree. I found every item I ordered tasty, well seasoned and cooked, certainly a cut above regular pub-type food! Not very cheap (and with vegetables etc as an extra on main courses), but definitely worth at least one... More
