La Pergola at The Wheatsheaf
The emphasis at La Pergola is to produce wholesome home cooked food in a traditional Italian style. Where possible we use home grown vegetables and herbs that are cultivated on our allotment, and many items on the menu are homemade, such as the fennel and pork sausages, antipasti pickles and bread.
Our kitchen is home to a wood burning pizza oven. Our pizzas have a distinctive taste that is only achieved in a clay oven. The pizza dough is made fresh every day and from the dining room it is possible to watch your pizza being prepared.
The service was very attentive and swift. Food great. A lovely venue.
Arrived 15 minutes early but seated immediately. At same time order was taken and drinks arrived inside 5 minutes. Meal arrived inside 15 minutes and was superb. Even my wife ate her whole meal including sweet course which is unusual for her. Cannot fault this experience one bit and will definitely be returning in the not too distant future.
As usual, everything about our meal was first class! Thank you, Rosa, Domenico & staff!
Very good value for money. Wide selection on the menu. Staff were very helpful. Brilliant.
Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff
We were disappointed to be asked to leave before we were ready,but we had been there the best of two hours.This has never happened before.
I would recommend going in as late as possible. It was manic when we went in and were shown to table straight away. And given menus but it was at least 15 mins before we were asked about a drink and we actually got the two drinks one of which was tap water after 40 mins even after the arrival of our starters which were 36 mins. Can not fault the food and the fact it is busy shows the food is good but a lot of tables emptied about 8.30 so prob a good time to arrive would be then. Staff all friendly and pleasant just very busy
Love this place. Food amazing staff are friendly love coming here
Fantastic atmosphere, reminds me of traditional family tavernas I used to visit growing up in Greece. Food is great and the staff are helpful and accommodating. It's lively and bustling, which I love. One of my favourite places to go!
Always an excellent experience for the taste buds, we take our two children and the pasta and pizza are brilliant, so are the deserts. Love this place!
Lovely family run restaurant with good quality italian cooking. Pizzas exceptional. Highly recommend
Amazing food at this restaurant. Everyone at our table thoroughly enjoyed their food. The staff are all so friendly and efficient. Just perfect.
I've been to the Pergola a number of times and have always had very good food. Unfortunately if you go in the evening the service is very slow and it's very noisy.
Enjoyed the quality of the food, authentic Italian cuisine. Pizza’s are excellent. Good family run business.
Service could be a bit speedier but staff very friendly. Busy and lively place. Book early!
The food is outstanding.
The service is good but we were left waiting for longer than expected to make our initial drinks order and then our meal order. Other than that, we would return.
Food was fantastic and service excellent, lovely evening celebrating our daughters birthday.
Authentic Italian restaurant with really good food and service. The pizzas are amazing. This was our first visit but will definitely go back there soon.
Very authentic, great food, good value, reminded us of a beautiful restaurant we enjoyed in Tuscany!
As usual, we can't fault any aspect of this fab venue! Great food, great service, great atmosphere! Magnifico!
Excellent food, good atmosphere. Bit slow but very busy.
Nice food. Perfect service. The kids have a good play area.
Large choice, reasonable prices. Easy to park. Nice staff members
We really enjoyed our visit thanks. Caters really well for children. Fantastic pizzas and delicious seafood pasta, much more seafood than you normally get in standard restaurants.
Very tasty food, with generous portion sizes. Staff were very friendly and attentive
Fantastic food, excellent service lovely helpful staff
Fantastic food and it feels like you are really in Italy.
Fabulous food and great service. Highly recommended. We will be back soon!
We visited as a group of 8 last Saturday and unfortunately must have visited on a down day as I believe the restaurant is normally reviewed well. 5 of our party of 8 opted for pizza which was very poor. Crust was too hard to cut and centre was soggy. To be fair we didn’t complain at the time as we were celebrating my mums 81st, her treat and I didn’t want to upset her by complaining. Deserts were delicious and service was good
Really great authentic food. Very amenable to dietary requests. Nothing was too much trouble. We can't wait to return.
Very friendly. Views through to the kitchen and the pizza oven are fun. Staff could have been a bit more attentive but no real problem. Food was authentic Italian and excellent. Coffee was very good too.
Good food and nice people would recommend to family and friends. The fact they grow some of their own veg etc is great.
Best Italian food outside of Italy. I have been going here for years and am yet to be disappointed by a meal at la pergola. Fantastic restaurant with lovely friendly staff, a proper family feel and authentic cuisine which comes second to none!
Delicious freshly made pizzas.
Friendly staff.
Plenty of parking.
Great food, good value for money and a really busy environment. The noise levels at time can be a little high but it’s worth it and some enjoy the atmosphere. The staff are very good in general, they do seem overworked at times but this does not affect the quality of the food.
Very busy for a weekday and short staffed meant slow service. However they were very friendly when they had a chance and the food was great. Will go again 100%.
We were so excited about our booking - it was my daughter's 16th birthday family dinner, and the restaurant had been highly recommended. The food was poor quality, the service was appallingly slow (one of the manager's apologised) and it just didn't feel like the evening we had anticipated.
The food and service lived up to our expectations! Lovely staff who helped to make the evening pleasurable. The food spoke for itself!!!!!! Will definitely be returning.
Great in every way as always. Family celebration, 3 generations all catered for. Food came to the whole table together for every course.
I went to La Pergola on a couple of occasions and both times I ate exquisite (traditional Italian) food. Staff was cordial staff and friendly. I will definitely go there again
Very good food and the waiters and waitress was very good.
