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.

I have visited the Stag a number of times for Sunday lunch and each time the experience gets better than the last. The meat is cooked to perfection and the veg is presented just right, rather than a mush as you get in so many...establishments. Special praise goes to the stuffing balls which were home made and delicious. Stuart clearly takes a great pride in presenting the highest quality food. I will definitely be visiting againMore

I was at The Stags Head Pub in Westbourne on Friday 25 th August with my husband. We shared some Nachos and I had the Butterfly Chicken meal too. They were cooked by Stuart Webb, and were very tasty, and well presented. Well worth eating...at the pub. Very friendly customers and staff. Anita and Stuart make their customers feel very welcome, as do the bar staff too. We would advise others to use the pub too. There is also music from singers from time to time too. We'll worth visiting.More

The Stags Head, Westbourne is a very pleasant friendly pub. Anita and Stuart are very welcoming. My husband and myself shared some Nachos tonight, and I had the butterfly chicken meal too. The meal was absolutely tasty, well worth the visit. We also had a...couple of drinks too.More

We had a wonderful experience when we booked a table in the beer garden for our family and friends on the bank holiday weekend. Stuart and Anita could not have made made us more welcome. We were a party of 9 with 3 generations and...all really enjoyed the marvellous Sunday carvery which was hot, delicious and really high quality. They offered generous portions of Beef (my favourite), lamb and turkey with plenty of sides and gravy. Stuart was kind enough to make my eldest son a cheeseburger and chips as he’s not a fan of Roasts which was not on the menu as it was a Sunday. We spent many hours enjoying the sunshine and lovely drinks.More

We went here for a 50th Birthday celebration and had a wonderful meal. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We took our own birthday cake in and they accommodated lighting the candles in the kitchen and bringing the cake out etc. The food...was very nice, your typical English pub food. Thank you for a lovely evening xMore
