   Food was amazing but service quite slow. We went at Christmas and the service was extremely slow so thought we would give it another go. Fairly quiet on a Thursday but would not go at the weekend for that reason.

   My favorite local. Great food and usually great service but a young waitress with very big false eyelashes said probably what she has been asked to say but with a, I'm really not interested attitude. I would say that probably the young lady should be in a different industry. My friends laughed about it but I wasn't impressed. It was still a great night and the food was delicious.

    I consider the Old Inn my best local. However last night my sea bass supper arrived and the potatoes and plate were swimming in oil. it was really bad and not acceptable. The first and hopefully the last time I have had bad food here.

    I chose the front outside seating area where you can watch the world go by with lovely countryside as a backdrop. Waiter was very chatty and attentive. Food arrived hot & tasty. Even midweek it was busy, but there was no pressure to rush our meal & we sat leisurely chatting to other guests.

    We have not visited the Old Inn for many years, it had become poor in many respects. Not any more we had great experience, good food very attentive service – by very friendly staff – impressive. We sat at a table next to someone with a very very loud laugh, this was our only downside. We will be back!

    A last minute booking very accommodating service good and staff very attentive. Our choice of food was delicious, fresh and well presented. As real ale lovers would have preferred a better choice of ale or perhaps a guest ale. This, however, did not spoil our evening

    Service and ambience excellent with attentive caring staff ,food is great but the portions for us are way too big .. I think a smaller appetite choice would be an improvement ..would recommend as a regular visitor we have never had a bad experience and such a lovely outdoor space

    The Old Inn is a lovely pub in a countryside settng. As expected, weekday lunch is frequented mostly by older folk. The menu is not vast, bu this gives them teh ability to concentrate on getting it right. Service speed was acceptable.

    Lovely food, great service. This lovely old pub has been a bit hit and miss over the years as management has changed, but the current team seem to have got it right.

    The standard of the meals was very good, all meals were delivered promptly and were hot. The sizes were generous though choice of vegetables was limited. The inside restaurant was quiet to start but quickly became very busy. Overall experience was very good and appreciated by my guests.

    Slow service but friendly when at table. Expensive pizza that didn’t match the quality. Expensive starters that need to be bigger. Dessert was better, but forgot the order so took a long time. Disappointing in comparison to previous visits.

    They've stuffed the prices up so the value mark is down but the quality is still top notch and we had a pleasant evening.It got very busy but the service held up as the noise ramped up.

    Everything was up to the usual standard for this inn. But we did notice a significant price increase on our meals and drinks. £9-50 for a large glass of white wine is a bit steep !! When you can buy a bottle for that cost !!
