Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Don’t usually write reviews but I had to come and give the plough a review. Come quite often with my partner and 1 year old and there always so accommodating and friendly. They even know what we want to order now we go that often!...Food always comes out quickly and services is always spot on. What you need when you have a 1 year old who won’t sit in the high chair for long. Even asked if I could take my mum home a roast dinner and they done me a takeaway one and she said it was the best one she’s ever eaten. Thanks so much - keep up the good work! XMore

Beautiful old pub off the beaten track. Very friendly and welcoming staff and even a parrot 🐦 (not a Norwegian Blue apparently). Food was delicious too. Definitely would recommend

Popped in here after visiting Huckleberry woods. Very friendly table service, even though we only had a gin and tonic. Great vibe with a mixture of people. Would recommend a visit!

Birthday lunch. The steak and ale pie was most enjoyable and the scampi was eaten with enthusiasm. Two of us had 2x starters each as the dish I had wanted was not on offer today. The starters were nice (pork belly & filo prawns) but...disappointingly small portions. Our dog was welcome and the beer decent. Nice staff.More

We had a fantastic meal last night (Saturday). Called at short notice and they managed to fit us, a group of 4, in for dinner. Love the old pub style vibe and the parrot was great entertainments We had the mixed platter for starters, stale...and ale pie and chicken burger, it was all 10/10. We will be going back.More

My Husband is unfortunately very ill and we have been going out as much as possible to make the most of the time we have together. This has become our favourite spot to visit, lovely location, warm friendly atmosphere and beautifully cooked food. Beer battered...cod is best I have had anywhere and the roast dinner delicious . Have taken family members recently who all enjoyed their different meals. Thoroughly recommend to those looking for something more than sitting in the local characterless Wetherspoons.More

I was looking for a good Sunday roast lunch in a pub with character and good beer and I was not disappointed. The whole experience was perfect. The beer was great and the roast absolutely delicious. My partner had the beef and it looked beautifully...cooked. Pink and tender. My stuffed chicken was moist and tasty. The vegetables perfect, not overcooked. Just right. The service was friendly and efficient. All in all we couldn’t fault our experience. I look forward to going back. This really is a gem !More

Wow! Found this hidden gem through a wild food foraging course which started here. Amazing food, amazing service, wonderful atmosphere with Bob the African Grey Parrot. I found an awesome basket in the ladies toilet with free items for everything a lady would need in...a emergency. Have never seen this before and is a wonderful touch. We will be back most definitely 💕💕💕More
