REVIEWS
Helpful staff from the beginning . My food was hot (pie and mash was tasty). Wife's Fish wasn't hot , Oily batter, not much taste. (lot of liquid inside fish). Never the less Wife says "lovely staff and nice place."Took a long time for order to come through, so expected better of the fish.
Had a lovely meal of ham, egg and chips last night. 14.01.2025.Friendly staff who were not bothered by me being wheat and gluten intolerant. Definitely will visit again.
Farmers managed to fit in a table of 18 for breakfast at very short notice on Christmas eve so we were really happy.They also put on a buffet which was better than just ordering off the menu. Great quality food, especially the sausages and great atmosphere for us as a large party as we all got to sit together.Really pleased thank you for having us.
We was greeted by evie who was absolutely amazing, so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Service with a smile 😄Carvery was lovely, really great first time experience will be returning! Thanks again Evie. Costumer service on point.
First time having a carvery here. Food was very delicious. Very generous serving of meat. We had the beef which was very tender. Good selection of vegetables. Staff were friendly and on the ball. We were full but really wanted one of the amazing deserts, I asked if they did takeaway and they said it was no problem, although the portion was small for the price of £7.50 We will definitely be regulars.
Great Carvery, the meat and veg were excellent but the Yorkshires were floppy.There were a ton of children which were noisy af but they can't really help that.The staff were exceptional though, super friendly and happy to help, they also gave great recommendations for desert.
The staff were very efficient and friendly, the food was great. Only scored it down because the tabletop was sticky and the general decor was tired and rather dark.
GOOD Based on 629 reviews riw94712025-03-30Verified Enjoyable Came here a few weeks ago, and whilst it wasn’t too busy we enjoyed the carvery food. Returned today with family for Mothering Sunday, lucky we had booked as it was absolutely heaving. Free deserts for all mothers was a nice touch, and no price increase just because of the day.👍 Carvery was as good as last time, except stuffing balls were like cannon balls 🙈 and meat was only lukewarm. Overall we enjoyed the lunch and would return. Joseph2025-03-15Verified Not the same as it used to be It has been a few years since going but I’ve always raved about how good it was. Was, being the operative word as this experience was not good. We called before heading there to check they did carvery still (new owners, new name). They said yes so we booked. When we arrived though we were told no carvery!! Sort of defeated the object of going. There was a roast on the menu which was ordered by two of the party. I had fish and chips. The roast - plate was reasonably sized but some suspect options added, like roasted butternut squash. The meat though was clearly reheated as was dry and tough. The gravy was thin and everything had a hint of Indian spice about it. The Fish & Chips - the batter looked like it had been waved in front of the grill as it was very aneamic. It tasted okay though and was reasonable. The bigger issue we had was with the service, we had a 10 month old with us. The server bought cutlery to the table and placed them in front of the child (quickly moved by the parents), later on they had asked for extra gravy which was brought out in a hot gravy boat which was also placed in front of the child (only clear space on the table). The added issue was then the baby changing facilities were not best placed and also dirty. All round a disappointing experience and feel let down as told we could have the meal of choice over the phone to then find out it wasn’t available. Sorry but we won’t be returning. Karen S2025-03-02Verified Very nice food We had the carvery and the meat was superb and good selection of veg and potatoes all in all it was very nice, good selection of deserts but need to get some vegan options and GF options as no vegan/gf cream or custard or ice cream available. Was also warmer than when we were last in there but we had a nice family meal 👍 Karen S2025-01-12Verified Lovely food but very cold in the rooms sadly The food was great plenty of meat very tender & hot 👍 but the rooms were very cold 🥶 our elderly mum had to keep her coat on and unfortunately as she's a slow eater her dinner went cold very quickly which put her off eating it! 🥴 and her cup of tea also went cold due to the lack of heating in the room, a shame as nice food good service but just to cold to eat in there this time of year you really need to look at central heating the whole place to improve dining little fan heaters are not really cutting the mustard sadly 😵💫 Trail422728380162024-12-10Verified Beautiful place, great food and drink. New owners only been there a month but wow they've some great ideas and the food..... Well it was amazing plus a great selection of drinks too nothing was too much trouble this place is definitely worth the visit ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Karen S2024-12-02Verified Enjoyed our carvery Been many times for family occasions X6 family members at 12.30 yesterday 1st December had the carvery, meat a little less than we used to get! but good selection of vegetables yorkshire's were fine not keen on the stuffing balls! gravy could be thicker, service was great plates cleared in good time and deserts were great, was warm and cosy and fairly busy but not as busy as we've seen it before on a Sunday. We all enjoyed our food and had empty plates thank you 😃 Julie H2024-12-01Verified Great Dog friendly pub / diner Great, this restaurant/bar is now dog friendly so we visited for a Sunday meal. Was nicely busy and drinks are ok price. We decided we wouldn't have the carvery, food was mostly cold, we had vegan wellington which felt it was ready so quickly could have been microwaved!!! Will visit again but may have a bottle of wine and tapas next time. Jude P2024-11-23Verified A meal of 2 halves We have been going to The Farmers for years with no complaints hence why it was first choice for my husbands birthday meal. Unbeknown to us The Farmers had changed management. The food ordered from the menu and coming direct from the kitchen was fine but the carvery was a different matter. Under previous ownership no matter if you were first served or the last people in of an evening the food was great. We were seated by 7pm & got to the carvery but 7.45pm, no one told us they now close at 9pm. The meat on the carvery was the meat left over, we had the beef that could have passed as rubber, one bit was so dry and the other was near on raw. The gammon was so dry it was inedible. The veg were also the dregs and what was left over hence not everyone got all the veg as it had run out. The Yorkshire pudding was dry and burnt. The beef gravy had run out and the tried to tell us that the turkey gravy was the same as the beef. The staff at the carvery were so miserable with an attitude. The ladies waiting/clearing tables were lovely. We didn’t realise it closed at 9pm as with the previous owner it closed when the last person left. The guy kept coming and checking if we were still there which made us feel very uncomfortable. All in all we will not be going back. Jenny w2024-11-19Verified Great place for a Sunday carvery A great place for a Sunday carvery. Plenty of food, great options and tasty. Been a few times & would definitely recommend. Jampy2024-11-19Verified Freezing Recently under new management ( nice enough) but it was freezing in there, no atmosphere, no decorations. The food was mediocre and the toilet's were very smelly!
