This is a standard chain kind of place, and I have to say the staff were excellent, the food was ok, but the actual place itself feels very shabby, it needs some TLC to bring it back up to speed, food was not slow in coming out, but have had better for the same price.

Had a tasty bite to eat, reasonably priced. Only down fall was website had children's play area as open and was closed off when we were there. But would recommend ?

It was very cold inside and our food wasn't very nice.The breaded mushrooms were overcooked and the battered cod was more greasy batter and not much fish. A disappointing visit.

Was booked in for a table and got sat down at a round table that would hold 6 people but there were only 2 adults one baby so was a bit awkward trying to have a meal looking at my partner lol. The table was so close to the next table the back of my chair was touching the other tables chair, luckily no one was sitting on it but felt obviously still felt really cramped. We were not told we had to order at the bar and was sitting there for about 10/15 minutes looking a bit clueless. Our empty plates was left on the table almost an hour after we finished eating and just in general no warm welcoming from the staff so for this reason I cannot even give 1 star for the service. Food was mediocre but cold, nothing too much to complain about but nothing really to compliment. Wouldn?t recommend and wouldn?t go here again. I weren?t expecting much just a nice carvery in a nice pub but was feeling like I just wanted to eat and be done to be honest oh and they definitely water down the drinks or hardly put any alcohol in there, I could have down my rum and coke like it was orange juice.

Ignore their opening times. They close whenever they like!Popped into the Bobbing Apple for a few drinks this evening. Web sits says they are open till 11:00pm, but they called last orders at 10:00 and asked everyone to leave at 10:15!I mentioned to the manager, that their web site says they are open until 11:00 and he said "I know... its wrong"!!!I guess its just lazy staff and management that want to knock off early. We wont be back.

A dirty table, overcharged then charged a fee to be refunded and kids running around the place were the downsides. The best thing about it was the kind guy dishing out meat at the carvery.The place was really busy, queue for the carvery was pretty big so we figured it had to be really good. The best thing to eat was what we think were dauphinoise potatoes which were part of the carvery. There was plenty of choice and it was ok, for the price. Staff were doing their best but I think it was too busy for them. We'd try it again.

Went for boxing day breakfast,very little customer service on arrival. Arrived at 09:45, went to use the coffee machine,no milk in it. Had to wait for that to be refilled. Went and sat down to drink it. Got up to get some breakfast, all that was there was 2 sausages, a spoonful of beans. I asked if any more food was coming out and told no,it was 10am. The waitress then went and got me some scrambled eggs and a hash brown. Not a lot for £10! We then left, walked past the manager who couldn't even say thank you, or goodbye. Avoid at all costs!!!!

Booked a table for 5.15pm for Christmas Day with my family, the only time that 8 of us could be seated together. No pre dinner drinks offered even though it was supposed to be included in the deal. Slightly late in getting to our table, even though we arrived 30 minutes early, and the seating and tables were dirty. Went to get our Christmas dinner but it wasn?t anywhere near what it should have been like. Meat over cooked and quite tasteless. Sprouts grossly undercooked and parsnips were burnt to a crisp. Roast potatoes were like mush. Stuffing balls tasteless and Yorkshire puddings were rubbery. Christmas pudding was cold. Some of the staff were ok but most had faces as long as a kite. Not a good experience, especially as we?ve eaten there before, but won?t be going back until many improvements are made. At a cost of about £450 a waste of money. Be nice to receive an apology and a refund but I won?t hold my breath.

Fully booked but wasn't it was empty xmas eve. The place is sticky, tables and chairs broken/wobbly, mess everywhere,toilets broken out of order, lazy staff, waited an hour for food got a refund. Yet the carvey sitting there with loads of food unattended. This place needs to be closed down fast and let some one that noes what there doing to take over. Only good point is there's plenty of parking. Stay away save your money for McDonald's just across the road.

Me and my family decided to go out for a nice relaxing lunch in the christmas holidays. We were told to sit at table 52 but when we went to order the woman at the bar told us we weren?t allowed to get food as we were too late even though the food was from 12-6 and forget that we sat at table 52. There were 6 of us (5 adults and 1 child.)1 of the adults and her child ordered their meal at the bar. They ordered the festive pie and a kids meal of poppers. The rest of the family ordered their meal including burgers, gammon steak and a club sandwich. After 20 minutes the second lot of the family?s food arrived and we started eating it. We waited a bit thinking that they were still cooking the 1st part of the family?s meal. After eating around 15 minutes their food hadn?t come out so we spoke out to one of the waitress and asked where our food is. She went to check and told us that the food ticket hadn?t gone through so they hadn?t cooked out food. We were very angry as we had nearly finished the rest of our meals so we asked to speak to the manager to see what had happened to the ticket. The manager was lovely and gave us a full refund and even went to the kitchen and cooked our little one her meal as she was getting a bit sad and hangry. We were very grateful for the manager but we were quite disappointed that our original meal had been cancelled. The restaurant wasn?t very full and the area we were sat in had no people. Overall, a not so great meal out due to forgetting order but the food was good and drinks were nice as well.
