The name says it all! Quality meats. You won?t purchase meat from a supermarket again.Easily located in Forum shopping centre. Super friendly and helpful staff. Can?t find a cut of meat or would like seasoning added they will happily assist. Have some great pack deals, different sausage flavours and variety of meats. Freshly baked sausage rolls and pasty make a quick lunch. They also stock local free range eggs, honey and plum bread.

We dropped in for dinner . We had the specials deal, 2 meals for £22. Only a limited choice as 2 items were not available. The meals were good and well cooked. The pub was lacking atmosphere as hardly anyone in and was not warm. The member of staff was friendly and efficient .

We wanted to support our local pub so book here with friends, a nice clean comfy lounge. The food was good and came nice and hot and very well presented. Overall we enjoyed our experience, unfortunately we won?t be visiting again as long as the television stays in the lounge. We wondered why there were so many available seats and only 2 other customers eating. Part way through our meal we were overwhelmed with about 4/5 very loud drinkers watching football to the point that we could not communicate across our table, our pleasant evening was spoiled. A lounge shouldn?t have a tv in especially when food is being served. So good luck with your venture but until the tv goes we and numerous of our friends will go elsewhere. A pity as you?re our local.

This is my local pub I would have liked to have booked my table for an hour later, but the automated online booking service only offered 18:00 as the latest possible slot (I know I could have phoned, but had trouble connecting on the phone, a few days prior to booking). The atmosphere was good. The front of house staff were very knowledgeable and attentive. Not only a wide range of drinks available but a good selection of dishes offered on the main a la carte menu and specials menu. I ordered from the specials menu. Only one dish unavailable from the specials (starter: scallops and black pudding, which with a shellfish allergy, I wouldn't have ordered.). The only very minor criticism is that there were too many 'carbs' for my liking on the main. Either take away the garlic bread or reduce the amount of linguine from the cod loin main. Although, the arrabiata sauce was authentically tasty. Good value for money. I'll definitely go back.

They genuinely sell the best fillet steak you could wish for.(Best fillet steak price, but you get what you pay for)

Great friendly service, excellent quality of meats and Pasties. Always a pleasure for me and my wife to call in.

Went recently for the sunday roast, we had the beef, gammon and lamb, so tender and juicy. Dan's roast potatoes are fluffy on the inside and crispy outside. A must is the garlic mushrooms with homemade garlic mayo ? Definitely worthy of a visit.

I do not normally write poor reviews, I but had to report on my disappointment with my Sunday lunch experience at The Harrows. We had booked in good faith to eat at 2.30om and was told this was a good time. On arrival at 2.00pm we were told that Beef and Lamb were both sold out because they had been unprepared for an influx of diners. The choice was gammon or chicken. My wife's starter prawns were clearly not cooked through and were returned, I also hasten to add that the plate was so warm it had actually cooked the salad lettuce. Her soup and my sons soup was luke warm. My garlic mushrooms were sloppy. All the meat on the main courses we're over cooked and very dry. We also added cauliflower cheese which did not arrive until we had nearly completed eating. This was removed from the bill. I cannot recommend this pub for Sunday lunch. The chef seemed out of his depth. A great shame because we had heard good things.

We have eaten here a couple of times before and the food has been fine but this time it was very disappointing. So much so, I had a couple bites of mine and couldn't eat the rest. The fish was like mush and the potatoes used to make the skin on chips hadn't been washed properly so you could taste and feel the bits of grit in your mouth. It wasn't just me though, the others in our party weren't happy either. One even said it was probably one of the worst meals they'd ever eaten. They did at least try to eat theirs though but only because, we had been waiting so long for the food to arrive, they were really hungry by the time it did. Now, like most people, we understand that everyone has an off day but the staff never even asked if the food was ok. Very Poor

Called earlier to make sure the 6 Nations Rugby was on their TV. Emma assured it would be showing. True to her word it was on, the pub has been refurbished, Emma was run off her feet as she was the only one serving but was still cheerful and helpful. Rugby gave us a good result eventually and Joe did his best to make sure we had sound and picture. Food was very good big portions and tasty might order starters next time. It?s been a long time since our last visit but we will be back, great atmosphere lovely people. Just one thing can the ladies toilets be checked out please? Broken loo seat and hand dryer that don?t dry. That?s my only complaint! Thanks Emma and Joe see you again soon!! ??

Booked a table for 12 as I have heard how this pub has turned itself around and is supposedly welcoming. Upon arrival we was greeted by a lovely smiling face behind the bar asked what we would like to drink and shown to our table. We had chosen to pre-order our meals and we certainly wasn't disappointed. Its nice to see that the children's Chicken nuggets actually contained chicken and not mush. I ordered the ribs and the portion was huge, with skin on chips and coleslaw. Would definitely order this again. You could tell that the burger was hand made and not shop bought. All in all couldn't fault the meal at all. Great little pub and will revisit most definitely.

Table for 10 pax, casual affair, drinks to start then ordered food, Joe was excellent & food was as described, you could tell immediately the food is freshly prepared & as recommended which means consistency. Paying the bill seperately was easy, mainly down to Joe, all round highly recommend x
