   Table booked for 12.30 but did not get the first course until 1.15, seemed to be problem in the kitchen. The staff were very apologetic and couldn't do enough, the food was very good and we will return. Felt sorry for the front of house staff as they had to apologise for someone else's problems. Some dishes on the menu were not available due to not being ready.

   Food was good, but waited too long between courses. When we complained the head waiter was very argumentative. He said we did not wait long. We pointed out the time between the first course and the main was about half an hour. The table opposite ours the people came in some time after us and were served before us. We are local and have been to the Jockey many times ,this is the first time we have been disappointed.

   Ordered 2x beef pies with fries, when food arrived it was served with mash. Pointed out to server who then went off to get fries leaving our meal to go cold. Fries arrived cut into pie and it was chicken not beef. Server checked with kitchen and apparently supplier had sent pies incorrectly filled. My husband who was hungry said we would stick with the pies they were taken away the mash removed (pies are served stacked on mash and 2 asparagus one mini parsnip) the pies were reheated and returned to us with fresh veg and red wine sauce (which was an accompaniment for beef not chicken) - we did get freshly cooked fries! We were not charged for the reheated meals we did not order which was just as well as I was now very unhappy. Left feeling very disappointed and would not return.

   The Jockey is always fantastic. I've been here many times and will continue to return for their great food and lovely staff. The place itself is cosy and welcoming and the staff cannot do enough for you. The menu changes just frequently enough, so that you never get bored even if you eat here often. The food is excellent - great quality and superb cooking.

    On previous visits I would have given the Jockey 5 stars on everything. However on this occasion my two guests had gammon which was overcooked very salty and inedible. My meal was fine. Also my guests had the prawn cocktail which looked lovely and contained superb prawns. It was served in a very narrow glass and was not easy to eat as a knife and fork were provided. I did suggest to the waiter that it would be better served on a platter as it would be easier to eat. Nevertheless the staff were excellent and did everything to make up for the gammon, cancelling the items on the bill and providing a free sweet, we couldn't ask for more.

    The service and quality of the food was very good but unfortunately the plates were cold and the food was just moderately warm. A let down to what would have been an enjoyable meal.

    Great service and atmosphere……. Sadly out of chilled Moet, and chocolate cake, but really enjoyed the alternatives. Food superb as always appreciated that with pressure on the chef reduced bookings were taken to maintain standards. Front of house staff could have been +1 …… they were under too much pressure, but all cheerful and trying their best

    Excellent food but service was a little erratic. The same waiter had to be asked twice for our water jug to be refilled and completely forgot to bring us the bill! I know they are short staffed but on this occasion it seemed to be just lack of concentration.

    Nice food but very small portions. £26 for lobster which after ordering my friend was told she’d have to pay an extra £5 as it was ‘bigger’ It wasn’t big at all and really the menu should state if the price will change. It wasn’t special and she would’nt order again. No vibe sadly, very quiet and no atmosphere, staff all in masks which some people might prefer but it really spoilt the vibe for us Strudel pudding was very dry and not enough custard. Not really a strudel at all just a pastry crust with not much filling Staff a bit too quick to push for orders etc, have been before but probably wouldn’t go back again now. Shame!

    We ate off the lunchtime menu which was excellent value. We had a boeuf bourguignon which was sublime with beautifully matched vegetables. The sweet was also brilliant, a sticky toffee sundae, an excellent take mixing sticky toffee pudding squares with toffee ice cream and butterscotch sauce. Lighter than the traditional sticky toffee and very refreshing. Our soup starter was the only missed mark, a spicy tomato which was perfectly fine but not quite to the standard of the rest. Always enjoy the Jockey, it is a reliable well maintained and pleasant place with good and regular staff.
