The cooking staff weren't particularly good food was good but the staff was about to be replaced as they weren't any good so next time should be a lot better will go

I had the steak baguette with chips and my partner had the scampi. My partner enjoyed his meal and a nice size portion. However, the steak baguette was inedible. Really disappointed with the meal. Great atmosphere up there though and great to see it busy again. I wouldn't rush back for another

beats a harvester hands down. nice bouncy castle for the kids in a good sized garden. we had 5 meals and meat was nice and tender. can get crowded so if you want to eat inside you may need to book.

We'd booked a table for nine of us for a birthday.I Googled the menu before we went but it was one that was four years out of date.Then I saw an awful recent review on Tripadvisor.I had misgivings but we gave it the benefit of a doubt and went anyway; The review couldn't have been further from the truth! The staff were friendly and efficient, the food was good with generous portions and great value for money. The chef saw that we were celebrating and offered to take our photo, making funny comments so our photo had us genuinely smiling for a change.It was extremely busy for a Tuesday, but everything was done calmly and efficiently.Would we go again? You betcha!

Dreadful food dreadful service very unwelcoming. Staff were rude or surly. Condiments were tossed on the table. We were not offered dessert. They wanted us out. We were a group of nine elderly couples plus one and were quiet and polite. We would never go back. Dreadful experience. I think all the staff need to attend a customer service course!

After I had a cheeky pint in here last time whilst on the way back with the dog I decided to take my family for food. My new neighbours have all said since the new owners have taken over the food is awesome, the quality is great and so are the prices and came highly recommended. Not one of them had a bad word to say about the place (?and I?ve read some of the reviews, some are I must say quite dramatic) We went on a Thursday and myself and my partner had 2 mixed grills for £15.95 and my daughters had curries (2 for £14). Extremely reasonable considering what we had and what we are used to where we use to live in Chelmsford. The place is welcoming as are the staff. I spoke to Calvin the manager to commend him and the staff for making us feel so welcome. He told us if we stayed we could join the weekly quiz or come back tomorrow for Karaoke or the artist on Saturday. It seems like they are trying their hardest to make this pub a proper locals local with what they have to offer. All in all a very pleasant experience and we shall definitely be back to try the Sunday lunch!

Went with a few friends last Thursday, we had grill club and stayed for quiz. It was absolutely heaving there, its so cheap its mental. Good food too! There was a table there complaining about their food but we actually overheard them talking, turns out they knew the previous landlords and was trying to cause hassle for the new guys! But everyone else in the whole restaurant was aware of the suitiation and our table told the manager before we left. Our food was lovely for what we actually paid for it! (2 grills £15.95) Go try it for yourself, you wont be disappointed.

After hearing so much about The Rhoswenallt my sister and I went last night, very disappointed, was told no deserts, they hadn?t been taken out of the freezer in time to defrost, I had the rump steak which was cremated and very tough,I couldn?t eat it, my sister?s meal was ok (3 course for £8.95), my sister ended up taking her desert home (still frozen) Calvin (front of house) was amazing, very friendly, helpful and professional, the owners need to really look after him, in my opinion he is the saving Grace, 10/10 for Calvin.

From the minute we walked in there was a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were very accommodating, as we had our dog we choose to sit outside but we did have the option of sitting in the bar. Our food was delicious and generous potions. We will definitely be back.

Went for a GCSE celebration lunch today. Booked a table for 7 well in advance even still one person ended up on the end of the table with very little room to eat.Only 1 menu on the table so we had to share that as staff said all menus were out. No specials or deals were told to us on arrival so we had to ask about them to be told "Oh yeah we got a deal on, on the wall there"Food took a very long time to come after ordering despite it not being busy. Staff were too busy sat around talking to help when asked about sauces and condiments, we were pointed in a direction of where there the sauces should be and when we explained there were none there some sachets were thrown on our table.When our food was taking longer than we expected we questioned this with staff, after the questioning the food was on our table with seconds, not hot but warm.12 ounce gammon was ordered and the gammon was shockingly small, there was more gammon on the mixed grill than the actual gammon order.Chips were sent back due to being black in the middle from what looked like rotten potatoes, we were offered a replacement but we declined.Other than that food was quite tasty and everything came out as ordered.Service for me was well under par as I have heard good things about the place.Would maybe go back again in time but won't be rushing back soon.

The food is delivered by Holdsworth Foods which means it arrives as "chilled and frozen meals". This could be a really lovely pub with top quality food that has an excellent reputation that people will travel to. Definitely won't be eating here!!!!
