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.

Myself and some friends went in for a Christmas meal and the food was incredible. I had an soy glazed ox cheek starter, then the best belly pork main ever, followed by a lovely festive gingerbread martini, it was all delicious! The atmosphere was festive...and fun, the xmas decorations that were on display made the evening extra special and the staff were 10/10! Highly recommendMore

We visited the Waggon for breakfast as it was my birthday. We’d prebooked the table. On arrival we were told we would be seated at high stools. I explained that my elderly mother who has a disability would not be able to sit on a...stool. Although they did change the table we were told that we should have explained this at the booking stage as this question is asked. This is not true. There is no such question at the booking stage. We then waited over 15 mins to receive menus and only received drinks after 30 mins. It’s was 1 hour and 15 mins before our breakfast arrived. They were cold and my mum who is vegetarian had bacon on her plate which she hadn’t ordered. Staff were stood around whilst others were run off their feet. It seems they have designated roles. So if the bar is not busy, the bar staff can just stand around chatting. Very poor service and cold food. Disappointing!More

Amazing food and service. Could not fault anything. The staff there are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Reasonable price’s excellent quality with a good atmosphere. Plenty of choices on the menu with a large range of beverages.

I booked online for 13:30, We went for dinner and arrived at 13:05 and was seated straight away, we was trying for a while to be served with drinks, which took around 20mins for us to receive them, which was nothing special a couple of...Pepsi’s and a vodka and Pepsi. We had our order for food take which arrived at 14:20, which was Haddock, chips & Peas with tartare sauce and cheese & onion pie with beans and some salad. The fish and chips was nice but, the cheese and onion pie was warm, the beans was in a watery sauce barely warm, the chips was mad hot which burnt my mouth as I wasn’t prepared for part of the meal to be so hot when the rest was barely warm! And I don’t even know what the small bit of salad was all about 🤷‍♂️. It was a good job I was in good company and we had lots to talk about. Wouldn’t go again and don’t think I would recommend it.More

Came for lunch midweek and we were very pleased. Two had lunch from the sandwiches, very good, one had Caesar salad, very good, and one had a starter and main from the 2 course 'deal' for £17 also very good. There was a choice of...real ales, unfortunately our first choice was end of barrel, but it was quickly replaced, without fuss and the replacement was good. Service was good. We'll be back.More

Our first time visiting. Greeted by lovely staff who worked well as a team and were so very attentive. A great menu with plenty of choice and something for everyone. Mussels to start followed by Sausage and mash and my partner had salt and pepper...squid with a fillet steak to follow. Food was perfectly good and nicely seasoned - the chef clearly knows how to cook and present the food well. The mussels were the best I have had for some time- and a generous portion too. No room for ours sadly but such a lovely lunch. We will be heading back next time we are in town. Totally recommend.More
