BEST LAMB AND SHISH KEBAB I COULD EAT IT EVERY DAY :)

Had lunch here Great food lovely staff loads of parking space, not to far from town centre,nice countryside pub

Appalling service that spoilt an evening. Visited here as the venue for a summer ball for the friends of a school. Bar staff were shocking, rude and incompetent. Food was appalling and verging on inedible. Bar ran out of wine during our event and had a poor selection of other drinks with bar staff that didn’t even know the rudimentary facts about drinks they had. Avoid at all costs - will NEVER go back

I know I have put visited in. May 2022 but the last time I visited was back in 90s, & no later dates to put in. was visiting the area with my ex husband family & stop off at phillpotts, not sure if they still bake the scones on premises but they use to make the scones, & jam themselves back then The best cream tea I've ever tasted, shame they don't do a phillpotts in newcastle as I moved back to my hometown It was still owned by one of the phillpotts family back them, a remember a guy with dark hair beard & glasses , but I was in my mid 20s then in the 90s Recommend such a lovely place & I do recommend the cream teas 👌👌👌

Food is nice BUT dont get caught by their prices, if you look at the menu on the website it is badly out of date. When I phoned back to question the price 20% more than advertise they said they dont use the website any more, they dont have access and cant take it down!!!!!!!!!! Made the meal disappointing because it was much more than we expected

Called the restaurant, told me to send the photos and the videos and they would call me back, now they are ignoring me! A long hair in my chow mein! Disgusting!

Strange that whenever one of two people give this place 1*, all of a sudden a 5 star review appears. Not really a conspiracy theory but...... Visited on Saturday. No cocktails available, no sea food available, incredibly limited fish and chips and that's it. Totally indifferent manager who, when we walked out suggested dismissively that we should come back in a couple of weeks.... As if. The name of this place pays homage to a wonderful gentleman, pity the restaurant sinks as low as its possible to go. Service 0 starts Drink 0 stars Food impossible to say. We walked out as only 10% of the menu was available. Don't waste your time. There are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity that won't set you back as much and night even have food and drink available.

Ladies meal out and what a disappointment… had to ask for cutlery and condiments.. soggy bruschetta and pizza partially burnt and extremely lacking in ingredients… added to this the chef seemed to be having a bad day at the office!!! Kept dropping pans and lids and seemed exasperated.. will not be back

I always look forward to ordering a takeaway from here as food is consistently good.Our takeaway yesterday was excellent, can thoroughly recommend this place.

Average Turkish cuisine, there are others that do it better. Feels a bit like a cafe rather than a restaurant. Service average, food okay.

Nice venue good layout but drinks are expensive

Thankyou so much to Kirsty, the team and the jolliest Santa weve ever met! We were made to feel so welcome, my kids said afterwards, "hes definitely the real one and not just someone dressed up" 😂 Paper aeroplanes, lovely breakfast, amazing packed activity bags and chocolates too, such a lovely morning thank you all and Merry Christmas!

Awful is my only words service is awful they are so rude . The sandwiches tasted like they had been sprayed in cleaning spray and wiped in it . The gingerbread is really hard l. The bread is stale and hard .

Possibly the worst Thai curry I have had the misfortune to eat, it was uneatable, the chicken was hard and not fresh , the rice was hard, the curry was watery, Will not order from them again, avoid.
