The Woolpack Inn, Warehorne

As you will see from a previous review, I have used this pub for many years. Not a regular visitor, but I do pass every 2 or 3 months. One of these visits was a couple of weeks back and once again the place seems to be under new owners. We ordered a simpe burger and chips and onion rings. The chips and onoins rings were seeped in so much oil we couldn't eat them, and it took over an hour to come out even though there was only one other couple eating.
However what put me off even more was the landlords attitude towards the staff and his wife. He was astoundingly rude, and this attitude appeared to have carried over to his customers as well.
After 9 years of visiting this pub I will finally call it a day, bad food, bad atmosphere.

The Woolpack Inn, Warehorne

This is our local pub and we have seen it change hands a number of times (too many in the last few years).
Tonight we tried it out under the very new owners. Though the place was quiet the welcome was warm. They have redecorated to the benefit of the place lightening it up a lot. The menu is relatively short but very affordable and varied. I had the prawns to start with and steak and ale pie for mains. Both dishes were absolutely lovely, home cooked and obviously used fresh ingredients. My friend had goats cheese salad then the Lamb shank and again food was fresh, delicious and well presented. The portions were generous and the service good. I will most definately go back and look forward to seeing the place fill up again.
Can't comment on the drink neither of us are drinkers so we stuck to lemonade and tea! However I have been given it on good authority that the real ales are very good. Well done to the new owners!
