A birthday meal celebration for a family member. We basically had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Good service, happy and friendly. Good food, too. A wonderful, cozy environment with a separate place with high backed leather chairs and open fire. So nice to go out and not have to listen to a TV blaring out football games.

4 of us went for a late lunch. Service was excellent, and the food very good. This was our second time eating there. We will definitely be going back again.

We were celebrating 2 family birthdays, both special birthdays. The Manager and staff were excellent. Couldn't do enough for us. Their help with the cakes and balloons made it the special occasion we wanted. Food was great, selection excellent and great value for money. The Service, like I say was excellent, helpful, friendly and always ready to see to our needs. I have been several times before and its always good. The restaurant is clean, spacious and comfortable. Thank you all!!

We went to the cherry tree today for the first time and had a Sunday roast. The staff was so friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked through the door. The setting was nicely decorated with a good atmosphere. Food was lovely, service was 5 star and fairly priced. We will definitely be returning.

Had an Abba night which was very good, the place was pretty full and the atmosphere was good. Was concerned that there were only 3 bar staff and drinks might take a while but they all did a fantastic job. Credit to them for keeping everyone happy.

I came here with my husband, daughter and in-laws on a Sunday in August. We?d been to the Cherry Tree a couple of years ago, and the place was packed out and the food was delicious. It felt like quite a high-end family pub so we were looking forward to eating at the Cherry Tree again. I booked a table and was surprised when we arrived to see the place was virtually empty. It was a hot day so most of the windows were open but it meant there were flies everywhere and small bugs on the table. We all ordered a roast dinner for main, and shared one lot of halloumi fries for starter. The service was slow and staff were not attentive at all which was odd considering how quiet it was there. I ordered the roast chicken and when it arrived, I noticed that there were a lot of red and pink bits within the chicken (not even close to the bone) and there were lots of inedible separate chicken bones on my plate. I?m pregnant so am especially concerned about food safety and risk of food poisoning, so I called one of the staff members over to take the chicken back to the chef to check whether was cooked through. After quick check in the kitchen, I was assured it was completely cooked through. However I still felt wary so I tried eating just the non-red bits of the chicken but it was drier than the Sahara! The vegetables were over-cooked and the gravy didn?t taste very nice either. We weren?t checked on at all during our meal as to whether or not everything was okay or if we needed more drinks. I flagged a staff member down in the end and got my meal swapped for something else as my food was inedible. The day after eating at the Cherry Tree, my husband and in-laws all had upset stomachs after the roast beef main. The total bill came to over £90 which is a lot of money, especially for such a poor experience. It seems the Cherry Tree has been bought out by a company called RedCat so I can only assume that things may not be as high-quality since the acquisition. Definitely won?t be returning!

Took my partner and mum here for Sunday lunch and it was a massive disappointment to say the least....I had the chicken liver patè to start the presentation wasn't very inviting and there wasn't enough bread for the amount of patè served my partner had the chicken skewers with where cooked very well and tasted amazing but again the presentation was lacking. for the mains my mum and partner had the roast beef and I had the belly pork. when the dinners arrived it was evident that the beef was very over cooked as it was grey, the potatoes on all dinners where very undercooked, solid and inedible the other veg on the plate was tasteless and again hard. my belly pori did not have any crisp to it as expected and after the first mouthful I realised that I was served a lump of fat, there was no meat on my belly pork at all. when we managed to flag 8ver a member of staff the waitress was t really bothered about our disappointment with the dinners and just took the mains away. After a brief chat with the manager in the kitchen she returned, apologiesed and asked if we wanted anything else, again I feel she didn't really care we declined and just asked for the bill. Needless to say that the dinners where taken off the bill and our Sunday lunch ruined, we left extremely disappointed and hungry.It was such a shame as I had been there for lunch before and it was amazing so I had high hopes for the Sunday lunch there.

We attended a wedding reception at this venue yesterday 12th August, wow what a place. The food supplied by the ever attendant staff was just amazing, including delicious vegan/vegetarian options. Jamie could not have been more helpful, from the time we arrived in the morning to set out the wedding cake to the time we left In the evening nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend this venue, had we have known before hand would have loved to have stayed in one of the outer rooms in the pub grounds. Looking forward to taking parents there very soon for a delicious Sunday roast.

Heard new owners were better than the old so we gave it a try. Very satisfied. Staff were excellent, good selection on the menu with a good option of smaller portions, food nicely cooked and very tasty.

We thought we would go for the two meals for £16, Monday to Wednesday. Trouble is, this is actually restricted - to a board that they could not provide, but could tell us that there was no fish and chips, no scampi, no sea bass, just the salad, lasagne and hunters chicken. We asked about pies - no, not on the deal, burgers - no, not on the deal etc etc. They had virtually run out of all 'deal items' by 6.30 and what's worrying is a large group booked in for a couple of weeks. You can't order in advance, not even roast on a Sunday so am a bit worried. Should have thought more about customer service and given us the burgers for the same price. Deal or no deal - seems like pot luck !

We called in on the off chance and invited to select any table of our choice. The waitress was extremely friendly and we selected two light meals which were served very quickly and both were excellent. I chose a Nelson beer to accompany my meal which I have to say was one of the nicest beers I have had for a long time and refreshingly served at the correct temperature (not icy cold which is so often the case nowadays). The waitress was attentive without being a nuisance and our overall experience was very pleasant. We look forward to visiting again very soon.

We had 2 rooms, which were clean, tidy, and well appointed. The staff were friendly and very curtious. The only small issue was that our room hadn't been restocked properly, as my daughters room had milk and biscuits that we didn't have, and the towels were quite small.... I'd stay again without a doubt.
