I used to go to this pub some years ago and went for a quiet drink on Sunday. The bar was really busy with diners and there was no seating, I spoke to the bar manager who let me sit in the back room which was empty apart from one other couple. After a few minutes a very loud man appeared and demanded to know why we had switched his lamp off? The girlfriend crawled under the table and switched the plug on! How rude we're thought He then appeared and asked why we we not eating food? I advised him we had been told we could sit in this room by the bar manager. He informed me e was the owner and the bar manager was thick. I advised he I would finish my drink and leave, the silly little man told me to go. The other couple shook their head in disbelief, one rude little man, I will never attend your pub again, if you treat people like this one day you will have no business left. Pathetic little individual . The poor bar manager was given a telling off in front of customers and staff, shocking behaviour LeeRogers - 12 Sep 2012 21:13 |
i was really suprised when reading these comments about the pheasent , as i can only say whenever my family , myself, extended family, friends and myself have visited this resturant ,we have only ever had good food , good service , lovely staff and yes the car park is on the small side ..but hey thats life. the whole family experience whenever we have been has always been accomodating and our children range from 7 to 13. it is often our first choice of pub when wanting to eat out as a family and the vegetarian options are delicious and interesting. sharongaff7 - 31 May 2009 11:28 |
Used to go to this pub years ago when it was very popular for food. Things have changed..... To say I was very disappointed is a bit of an underestimate. The food across the menu was very expensive. Due to this fact I at least thought that it would be fresh. Unfortunately this was not the case. I could bore you with all the facts that when gathered up this was an extremely poor meal. If you like soogy, watery, tasteless meals you are in for a treat. Don't bother going. We were actually warned by someone who works with my wife but we ignored it. More fool us. They probably don't care as they must be making money hand over fist. paddy_mulligan - 26 Mar 2009 08:57 |
I've been visiting this establishment for many years - since the days when it was called "The Half Moon" - and was a real country pub with lock-ins at the weekend (which gave rise to it's downfall, but that's an entirely different story!)- but I probably won't be doing so again. There's nothing really "wrong", it just seems to be sloppily managed with the consequence that it has become just average and despite an extensive menu, there's nothing particularly special or enticing. Although this is a free house, little effort appears to be being made to offer any variety in the beers on offer. What is on offer is well kept, so no complaints there. If this was my old school report, it would say "could try harder" MartynG - 23 Apr 2008 13:56 |
Most of the above review is spot on. My wife and I travelled to this nice looking place on the way to Rugby on a Thursday evening and in hindsight, wished we'd carried on driving!! Our table was looking straight down a corridor for the toilets and EVERY flush was audible. The waitresses were the usual motley crew of 'local talent' from the surrounding villages who really couldn't be arsed. Drinks were pricey as was the food which is prized as 'Home Cooking' but in reality is the usual rubbish from a frozen food company that is either microwaved or fried. I certainly won't return MrF - 25 Mar 2006 20:54 |
