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.

Had lunch and dinner here many times with friends and or family. The food is consistently good and the menu original, offering everything from a toasted baguette with a Welsh Rarebit filling to steak from the local butcher or fish and chips. The atmosphere is...delightful because the staff are warm and welcoming. As a woman, I will happily arrive early to meet a friend and feel at home and comfortable, which is not something I feel in most pubs.More

Went because of reviews but was so disappointed. The salad I had had horrible fried four tons that just tasted of oil and stale, the smoked chicken couldn’t be made because of their oven so the chicken was dry with no taste. There was no...ice because their machine was broken…it wasn’t a pleasurable experience to say the least.More
