The Owls Nest Public House

Steak was fab. Scampi too. The service fantastic, as was the entertainment. Our waitress was very friendly, checkout website for entertainment, 3 weeks out of four, worth a visit.

Our first visit and we’ll certainly be back. Food was excellent, very tasty and great portions. Friendly service and reasonable price. Loved the traditional feel, would definitely recommend.

I am local, and popped in here a few years back to think Blimey its the 1970s and left. A few years on, and I hear good reports so we gave it a go. Still a step back in time, and quiet at 12:30 but that was ok. Reasonable choice of ales and a decent home made steak pie, except my order of peas became mixed vegetables. Alas my wife 's prawn and egg mayonnaise jacket had microwaved and cooked prawns which did that no favours (presumably someone tried to defrost them and got carried away). The tables are incredibly close together so I was actually sitting closer to the loud couple next to me than to my wife so a relaxing chat over lunch was impossible. There is just no atmosphere, and the bill was calculated on a scrap of paper seemed to be about right. Can 't comment on beer prices as I dont know what they charge; not cheap though. So the food was ok in parts, but there is a limited menu choice, you are sitting in the laps of your neighbours, and you feel like you 're on the set of Life on Mars Not one for me, thanks.

From the outside, not the sort of pub you would think of taking your elderly mother for Sunday lunch, but appearances can be misleading. On entering we were greeted with a friendly welcome by the young ladies behind the bar, and , being the first customers through the door, were given the choice of where to sit. The menu is small, but don't let that put you off. We plumped for the roast lamb and turkey. Good portions of both, with proper roast potatoes, for dessert, we had crumble, and syrup sponge, both with lashings of custard Overall, well worth the visit, excellent value for money allied with friendly service

This was the first time we had been here for food. A traditional pub with a warm welcome from the landlady. She let me sample some beer as this is a freehouse with brands unfamiliar to me. The menu was a little limited to traditional pub food. But whow! The food was home cooked great tasting value food. Great portion sizes. There was a specials board too. The waitress was smiley and very attentive. Will definitely go back. Wish we had found this pub years ago!
