Reviews of Penny Farthing

J. H.

Lovely atmosphere, and friendly staff. The food was fine, but pretty standard for pub food. Burger could've been a bit more juicy and needed a tad more burger sauce. The cauliflower wings were great though! We also tried the pizza which was amazingly fresh and tasty for a pub.

M. H.

Food was fresh and good value. However steaks seem to come out well done regardless of specified preference. The chicken and bacon salad was lovely with fresh crunchy salad and juicy chicken and bacon. My special requests e.g. Dressing on the side, no tortilla chips were followed. Nice place but bit dark inside. Proper onion rings.

D. M.

Visited for the first time with my son and parents as they were told this place was good. Good is an understatement, it was fantastic! The food was delicious, all of the staff were pleasant and courteous and the decor was relaxing and tasteful. Well done Penny Farthing, I hope to be seeing you again very soon.

B. D.

Friendly welcome. Comfortable venue inside and out. Children welcome. Service very good and food delivered very speedily. Food prices a little below average for a carvery. Sensible quantities. We found the sound system a bit loud so retreated outside. In fairness, E gland was playing Panama!

L. H.

Very good food, a good mix of dishes so should suit everyone. Were quick to deliver food as well, and the prices were pretty good. Was certainly not the most expensive "pub meal" that ive had. The only complaint is that it gets incredibly busy, so was hard to maintain a decent conversation. But this really just shows how popular the place is. The menu is available online, so I would recommend browsing through it first before going. Did not disappoint

T. C. U.

Ordered takeaway Sunday roast today. Perfectly cooked and ideal for a lazy Sunday. Thank you.

D. M.

Good pub, location and staff. The pub is well presented and clean. Staff were friendly. There is a car park, though spaces are limited. I went here for a lunchtime meal with a friend. There is a wide range of food and drinks, both at a reasonable price. When making the order we met by friendly staff. Service was quick with a short wait for our food order. If in the area, it is worth popping in.

n. p.

I specifically ordered a sandwich with vegan cheese, our food took over 20 minutes to arrive . There was a pot of coleslaw on my plate which I asked if it was vegan, I was told no then the waitress said let me go check your sandwich is vegan...turns out it wasn't! I then had another 20 minutes to wait for a replacement at which point my daughter had finished her meal. I wasn't offered an a ploy or courtesy drink. I chose to visit this pub as it has vegan options but left disappointed, some side salad would have been nice and the food was poorly presented. Not sure I'd go back or recommend it...

M. U.

Food was lovely brilliant for allergies and staff where very friendly and welcoming

A. J.

Large menu something for everyone.food was delicious and large portions well presented. The staff were friendly and it was spacious clean and i will definitely go there again. Would highly recommend

C. C.

The pub is very family oriented so expect lots of kids early on. Food is good and tasty and staff are warm and welcoming. Love the taco's and the Full Monty breakfast is also to be recommended

M. B.

Lovely atmosphere great friendly staff food was great not too long awaiting time only down bit was as was so many of us, 10, I looked at booking a table online to which be told to wait for a reply well still waiting lol 5 days later lol so would recommend just ring them don't bother online otherwise we had a great afternoon x

K. P.

Nice place good prices, nice small outdoor play area for the kids.

D. B.

Went one evening for a birthday celebration, there was 17 of us and the food came out all together, was really good quality and reasonable prices. Staff were excellent checking everything was ok. Very impressed.

K. E.

Good table service and a lovely meal. Pizza was good and staff were very accommodating.

L. H.

Generally this is one of the better eatery's in Coventry however my latest visit was certainly not up to standard. Food took a long while to come and when it did bits were missing and wrong. It was a bit of a complex order however the lady working the til didn't even know how to work it. The order I would class as complex but all within the boundaries of the menu, don't offer multiple options to change and vary a meal if your staff don't have the training to put this information into the POS system. Food was above average but nothing to shout about. Burgers were black and overcooked but apparently that's how they cook them.

P. J.

Lovely food nice place

J. M.

A lovely , relaxing time with my family and the staff couldn't have been nicer - you wouldn't know the stress they must be under. I really hope that this establishment and all of its staff are safe from the inevitable job losses - it would be such a shame to our community.

C. M.

Very good food. Friendly atmosphere. Really clean

A. P.

Table ready when we arrived - decorated for Christmas - socially distanced from other diners and attentive service from staff.

M. S.

The food was amazing the staff were friendly and gave a positive vibe to the place definitely recommended.

A. W.

We hadn't booked and there was football in the TV and live music scheduled for later that night, but we were treated well and a table found.

m. h.

There is a great atmosphere in the pub with very friendly staff and always there if you need them, the pub is very clean and the food is some of the best

Earlier today, myself and a (Support Assistant) colleague of mine, visited 'The 'Penny Farthing' (As we do on a regular basis) along with a group of 'Service Users' who have varied physical and mental disabilities. As per usual we were greeted with incredible warmth and understanding by the staff on duty, before ordering the usual meals, drinks and deserts for those in our care. Unfortunately, on this particular occasion, steak pies were missing from the menu. This caused one of our 'Service users' to slip into a state of anxiety. His condition is a complex one, which means that even the slightest deviation from his meal time routine, can totally alter his mindset, (Especially when he is away from the 'Comfort Zone' of his usual surroundings.) The staff were quick to come to the aid of myself, my colleague and our increasingly distressed friend. In no time at all, they went above and beyond the call of duty, to purchase a meat pie from a local chip shop, before plating it up to us totally free of charge. Our concerned 'Service User' was soon tucking into his desired food as if nothing had ever happened. In conclusion, my colleague and I were gobsmacked by the kindness shown by the staff at 'The Penny Farthing' and will never be able to thank them enough. Take from that true story whatever you will, but it's a 5 stars PLUS rating from us!

C. W.

Had a birthday family meal but we had an unfortunate incident at the table, the staff were fantastic and the complimentary dessert gave us all the lift we needed. Thanks you so much, we really appreciate the kind gesture.

E. M.

Family friendly on a Sunday afternoon? Yes, in terms of having a kids area and menu. No, if you count in the music. There were speakers absolutely everywhere, and loud. Was turned down by request. Food? As can be expected. My appetiser veg lasagne was dry and looked like a tiny, round pancake.

S. B.

Love the friendly staff food is always really good. Go at least once a month

M. V. d. A. F.

Amazing place to eat. You will really love it for a family dine out. Food is tasty and environment is so chillier back. Went there yesterday as my second time and will go again in the future.

T.

Seemed ok. Good food, fast service, ok prices, attentive staff, clean and modern.

I. L.

The go to place when you want a good quick meal in a nice pub. Great friendly staff, reliable standard and always a nice ambience. Its not Michelin star but its always very good value. Regular place.

E. H.

Excellent food, good quality ** low in price.lovely helpfull staff, especially (debs) our main server. little interactive area to keep 3 yr old to be entertained. Highly recommend ***

J. V.

Bad 1st impressions. Walked in and greeted with sit anywhere. After trying to find a table another staff member pointed us to a table. Selection of food was really good, went to the bar to order and all was good. Prices seem reasonable. Waited 15min for starters which was really nice, had the Hi10s bbq chicken. A further 60min later the mains come out. The main meal was correct but they forgot the side orders and toppings. After another 5 miniuts some fries come out which were far too greasy to eat but still no topper on my burger. Probaly will not come here again for a burger or a grill. Ill have to try the pizza next time.

V. C.

Great food and will definitely be coming again.

J. K. C.

Great pub, great staff, amazing food at great value and the quiz night is a right laugh. My local and a good one at that

I. G.

We visit here regularly and since the refurb we can't fault it, I have a 3 year old daughter who loves the facilities . Today (Easter Sunday) the amazing staff had make and play Easter hats and free ice cream for the kids. I can't recommend the place enough, especially the attentive staff.

T. K.

Really friendly staff. Well priced menu . Lots of choice. Eat here often.

K. C.

Friendly pub, good choice of beers and spirits, family friendly. Food is good, though presentation suffers at times when busy, looks at times like it's just been thrown onto the plate but fair value for money and it's always been hot and tasty.

L. S.

Good friendly service, nice and clean, high quality food for the price point. Good choice of ales

k. o.

Great pub lovely atmosphere

T. W.

N. S.

Nice food, busy but friendly service and good prices

e. y.

Love the pub food nice staff are great and Notting to to much for them to do. Kid friendly and dogs allowed . You can eat outside if you like. you can order pizza take away.

V. H.

Staff are always friendly and remember you. The pub was and is always very clean, I’ve been to other local pubs and the overall cleanliness puts me off wanting to eat there - everything is always sticky. The Penny could teach them a lot! The food was lovely last night, everything was fresh and tasty.

M. F.

The place was amazing. Staff were very friendly. Puddings were unique- Pina Colada Sundae! ...yum! Kentish Bramley Apple Crumble... hmm! Red Velvet Cake oh my goodness. We can not wait to come back again. How long do you have to wait between visits?!.... main courses were fantastic too!

V. R.

Popped in for lunch today. Son had pizza and I had fish and chips. Fast service and friendly. Food was lovely. Felt safe in there too

D.

F. B.

Lovely pub,good atmosphere,very friendly staff,good food. Thanks.

M. l.

The pub close de kitchen service around 20pm. For me, is too early! Half staffs no happy, another half staff very kind. Pizza is EXCELLENT (I recomend). Park is free. Friendly for kids.

D. J.

Chris serves a great pint!

M. K.

Food is ok, however I was charged more than expected for a simple mug of tea. When I questioned the price I was informed it was correct however on my return I paid a lower price and was told it's always been the lower price. I advised of my previous experience and it was srugged off. It's never about the money how ever principles mean more

K. D.

Charlotte our waitress was fantastic

n. F.

Birthday meal for 30 plus great service and food and staff coped easily with the orders

R. S.

Lovely Christmas meal with family. Well done for looking after 18 of us on a busy Sunday afternoon.

K. M.

Fantastic live music with Matt and Garfield. Real range of music - brilliant night.

S. G.

25 of us went for my daughter's 18th birthday family meal. No complaints from snyone. Food all lovely, staff friendly, all in all a nice family friendly, reasonably priced pub

R. R.

They have a great vegan menu for a pub, more choice than a lot of places and really reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and its a good local family pub.

A. B.

Great gluten free menu. Fab choice of food, beers, wines, cocktails, liqueurs coffees. Always busy and very popular. Small car park. Great for large groups.

R. G.

Really like this place . Good food and reasonable prices .friendly staff .

C. O.

Lovely little pub, staff seemed friendly although a little fed up. Food was great.

L.

Good honest food at a great price, free refills on the soft drinks can be expensive if you don't drink more than 3 glasses but the food is remarkable for the price. Must recommend the jalapeno and cheese bites.

m. m.

Decent portion sizes, great staff, reasonable prices

A. M.

GET what you pay foor. It's cheap and cheerful, the food is of average quality but is cheap. Driinks are reasonably priced . Attracts range of people, often large numbers of children are about in the beer garden and play area .

L. C.

Always have a lovely time, stuff are friendly. Pub quiz on a Wednesday is always a good laugh!

S. B.

Food was okay but we added Cauliflower cheese to the Sunday and was told we couldn't even though it let us pay on the app for it. Food was hot when it came and tasted good. Started were good too. We have 2 ultimate chicken burgers and a normal chicken burger and all we're cooked well and tasted good.

B. K.

Love It the Food is good too

B. M.

Great local pub good friendly staff

J. M.

Great food, lovely staff, just a nice place to eat

E. C.

First time visitor, not impressed as we waited over an hour for food. I can only assume it was because of lack of kitchen staff as there were no queues at the bar and plenty of empty tables. Will be a while before I return.

G. N.

Very nice pub. Good food and deserts, large choice of drinks. The staff is helpful and friendly.

R. b.

Quick service, nice food, we had a great evening.

T. R.

Lovely meal. Great staff. Many thanks. 😀

J. A.

Lovely pub, we'll set up for social distancing. Good food too, and the kids loved the outdoor playground.

J. F.

Not been here before but my lad and I fancied something different to our usual. Made a reservation online, which was quick and easy with confirmation received via email and text. Table booked for 12noon today and we were one of the first there. Shown to our table and as it wasn't busy yet we were able to get our food and drink order in first. The meals arrived promptly and looked appetising. The staff waited until we had nearly finished before checking if all was OK, which is good in my opinion, and the food tasted as good as it looked. My lad had the classic chicken burger and a side of onion rings whilst I opted for Hunters Chicken. With 2 large cokes it came to a little over £27. I feel this is great value for the food and service we received. Will definitely visit again.

P. L.

Great food, 1 item ordered was almost brought to table completely wrong so double check order. Otherwise great 👍

R. B.

It's local, good atmosphere. Ian and team have recovered the pub from the disaster of the landlady that replaced the brilliant Jenny

There's nothing particularly wrong with this restaurant, bit the food is ok at best, and the menu's are very 'optimstic' in their images of the food.

T. H.

Very nice meal although the menus could do with a wipe down they were very sticky

R. M.

Nice atmosphere with friendly service. Quiz nights are good fun.

A. A.

Very family friendly pub which provides excellent food and drinks for a reasonable price. Also do a cheeky pub quiz on a Wednesday night

Wow guys really great job Came here for lunch With the family Lots of things for the kids to do. There is a small park outside and a play area inside too. Friendly staff which always helps and the guy who was working got a high chair for us. Really nice I’d say 1/20 places do that for us. But I really appreciate it! The food was ready in about 10 mins. Probs the fastest pub service I’ve ever had. Wasn’t massive portions but deffo quality over quantity. The food was very tasty and fresh. Kids ate well so that’s another good sign of good food Really nice place and great food Would deffo come here again. Top marks guys. Keep this up !!

Nice decor typical Marston's pub operates more like a restaurant than a real pub

P. M.

If you're looking for a chid-friendly environment then this is the best option for you. - There are free parking areas all around. - There are 2 seating areas - inside and outside, however, the seating space outside can be limited especially when the whether us good. - It's a child-friendly relaxing place. There is a little playground for kids at the outside seating section (which is a good + as parents/guardians can have a good time while monitoring their kids), however, for a couple's outing here you best sitting inside if you will mind kids running around. - The prices of drinks and food are reasonable, ex: cocktails are £3.99 each or £8.99 for 2, a large shared portion of Nacho with BBQ Jackfruit and cheese is £9.99.

F. M.

J. O. A.

Great local pub for eats and drinks. Their menu has a wide range of food, including a very good choice of vegetarian and vegan meals. There is also a good choice of beers available to suit all tastes. There are quite a few tables here but it would be wise to book up if you intend to try this pub for a meal. By the way, you need to know this . . . the prices are VERY reasonable! The staff at The Penny Farthing are thoughtful, kind and very considerate. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

A. R.

The staff didn't seem as eager to please as they normally are.

Booking was easy and straight forward. Friendly, helpful staff. Food was delicious and we weren’t waiting long after ordering for it to come out. Lovely pleasant atmosphere, all round great meal out with the family at a lovely friendly pub ☺️

A. S.

My local pub, such a good family friendly place with live tv but doesn’t feel forced on you if you aren’t watching. Good is always great with good portion sizes for the prices. Staff always polite, enjoyed our visit as always. Be back soon!

w. v.

Had a great time food was nice and my girls enjoyed it there. Thanks

L. G. (.

Great place to eat and have some beers. The food is good and the service is quite fast. Loads of beers to chose from and good wine selection. They have offers during the week and weekends. Recommend it!

M. A.

Feel our food would have been better if we wasn't waiting for chips as we could hear waitress saying food was ready but waiting for chips So hot side salad and a really crusty roll on burger made it bit unpleasant Good size kids meal Partner said her pie was best she had ever had in a pub

N. M.

Good food freindly and attentive staff reasonable prices. It was very busy so it could have done with a few extra staff to reduce wait times but the staff you have were working very hard so I don't want the wait times to be a reflection or criticism of them.

M. J.

Lovely food and lovely friendly atmosphere.

G. O.

Great pub, well organised with friendly helpful staff

C. T.

I had booked for a party of 12 for dinner and we had submitted our choices in advance as requested. All the food was good and the staff behind the bar worked hard to make sure that the drinks orders were sorted promptly.

P. g.

I booked a table for a Birthday lunch last Sunday. We had a fabulous time, the food was great, so was the service. The staff are lovely A BIG THANK YOU Carol Idiens

S. H.

Had a amazing meal over the weekend some great offer staff are amazing

Z. B.

Food was lovely we all enjoyed it, cocktails were good too! Staff were all friendly and welcoming!

L. P.

Andy cooked a bang on roast, thanks to Courtney for good service! You da best!

B. E.

Ordered 2 coffee part way through a walk. Friendly welcoming staff, clean, loos smelled nice, were clean and liked the lights round the mirrors. Only negative was that the 2 ladies loo door was not lockable. Good job I wasn't desperate! Reported to staff who I later found out was the manager, who said after inspection, that the door had dropped and get would get it fixed. Let's hope so....I'll be checking. 😉

W. S.

Reasonably priced. Tuesdays all pizza for £5, Wednesday 2 burgers for £10 and they have a bottomless drinks offer too. Nice staff and quiz nights on a Tuesday.

T. S.

Went there today as always on a Monday and had sirloin steak for main. It was delicious, beautifully cooked exactly how I asked for it - melted in the mouth. Curtis the chef there is brilliant always cooks to perfection. We go there regularly and all the staff there are great especially Ian, Debs and Callum make you feel very welcome and always make our time there very enjoyable. Look forward very much to our next visit

J. S.

Great food and friendly, helpful staff. The football match on TV made it a little noisier than usual... but it was still a great evening.

T. B.

Friendly staff and very helpful food good and a reasonable price well worth a visit

N. E.

Great food and drinks!! Great service from Tom 👏

E.

Decent pub with good food, especially the Cowboy Burger. Gets packed on a weekend with families and children so it's usually easier to go in the week.

j. n.

I was very happy with the organisation on Sunday . 24 family members booked for various meals and to be honest couldn't have asked for better service. Sorted area of tables, meals brought out as close as could be so we were eating together, all meals were perfect, no problems at all. Would like to say thanks to manager and all staff . the whole staff

C. P.

Found this place on a holiday to a local hotel. The staff are amazing with a smile and lovely warm welcome. Food is fantastic, reasonable, hot and well served. I was so impressed I returned two nights on the trot for evening meal. On the last visit I asked for manager and told him what an amazing well ran and warm and friendly pub he was running. Wish I could move them all to my home town as my local. Thank you everyone you are all amazing stars. 😁😄

K. H.

Lovely friendly staff !! Never any trouble in the pub we love it !!

A. E.

Can't fault it. The food was excellent and staff were friendly.

C. W.

Excellent as always, always made to feel welcome and always a friendly atmosphere and good staff too. I do think the pub could do with a bit of a makeover

T. C.

This place is bangin!! Been going for years and best it's ever been!! New menu recently started and its well worth a try. Vegan options are really good and the bang bang cauliflower kebabs are awesome! Not on the menu, but just ask at the bar. Prices are reasonable and occasional offers. Great selection of ales and drinks. We had a slight issue with my partners food, nothing major and we said it wasn't a problem, it was sorted immediately with apologies and a free round of drinks. We said it wasn't necessary but they insisted. Really nice staff and great atmosphere. They show sports, have a pub quiz and beer offers, two Moretti's for £7 every Friday at the moment. Kids play area outside and small one inside with tablets and games. Check it out, but book a table first!!! It gets busy.

S. B.

We booked a table for 1.15, got there early, no problem, also was able to take dogs in with us which was great. Friendly polite staff, the problem started at the ordering, we are vegans and ordered cauliflower wings, tasty, nachos with lentil chilly, was brought just nachos no lentil chilli then the correct one was brought so had 2 .... ordered 2 vegan curry but was brought the lentil chilly. we ate what we had but queried this at the bar on leaving, no one seemed to take responsibility for the mix up. the girl that took the order at the bar didn't seem to know what was what so maybe a little more training on the ordering . In hind sight we should have ordered at the table via our phone but not everyone can do that.

S. P. S. P.

Lovely friendly staff, nice place ,nice food

N.

Food was nice, definitely worth it, bit tight on the beans portion for kids but kids rarely finish the whole meal anyway so... Would recommend

S. W.

Friendly staff very hot on cleniness and making sure we all registered our details. The menu wasn't as varied as before but saying that there is still plenty of choice. We waited a little longer for our meal but understanding the restrictions it was worth the wait, every ones meal was hot and fresh, this pub is across town for me but it was worth the traveling, give it a try you won't be disappointed.

f. i.

We were greeted and showed our table, we were asked if we wanted to get drinks and settle and let them know when we would like our starters, we never felt rushed during the meal, very relaxed and friendly, would definitely go again

D. W.

Without sounding too demographically focussed, a pub for it's expected clientèle. [ok snobbish might 'ave been easier] Loads of space, enthusiastic staff, who would be very much at home in front of the bar too, and live sports mainly Prem. stuff I guess. Food served quickly and politely, but oh dear Marstons, profit ethic yes, but increased margins on Wings? Totally different first two visits........but 2weeks ago tiny, tasteless and well, not what the "boys" in groups would thankyou for. But if value for money is your scene with well kept beer. Hey ho!

R. N.

good service and the food was served in a timely manner, £1.65 for a cordial was on the steep side but other than that no complaints, already planning my next visit

A. P.

Had a superb Sunday roast. Good chats with people and my footy team won. Community spirit in here. Friendly and welcoming. Staff do a fab job.

l. c.

We have been many times before, we come from South Wales to visit the grandchildren and it’s their favourite place, food always good, it was very busy yesterday, but the service was great.

G. F.

Friendly staff,and the food was superb, would definitely recommend

R. J.

Great staff, atmosphere, food & value. We visit regularly. Brilliant pub to socialise with friends or just go for a quiet drink.

N. W.

I was undecided @ lunch, then saw the steak offer😋. I had an excellently cooked rump+chips, tomato, peas and field shroom. And they sell some proper ales, fair play. First time i have been in, if as nice next visit then 5 stars👍

k. c.

The place is clean tidy and the beer is well looked after. Good range of food at reasonable prices. Very much a locals and family oriented pub.

L. F.

The food was hot and tasted amazing never fail to make me happy the service was really good and quick Perfect and best place to come ever ❤️ Highly recommended

J. R.

Hi I came today 22nd may and went to the bar and ordered food bit have a very fussy mum and Marian the lady behind the bar was very patient and helpful while taking my order will definitely be back again

B. H.

First time being here, the desert was late by accident so they made up for it by making a larger portion

F. B.

Very good food and friendly staff

A. W.

Always been a good pub before lockdown - and they're handling it well. Opened with a decent capacity without pushing it. Menu is limited as they cut down on options to save waste, but manage to get a good variety in. Most meals are mostly a decent price for portion, but a few here and there are not worth the money (chicken waffle and bacon popcorn starter come to mind). Food has always been good, and the staff are all friendly - manager is highly visible and works alongside the staff often, which helps establish the good atmosphere. Highly recommended

J. K.

The Sunday dinners are on point super delicious and well worth the money and they are not overly priced, I would definitely recommend the penny farthing not only for the Sunday dinners but for mid week meals 👍😋

A. W.

Great choice of food and beverages, catering for the kids as well. We love the quiz night on a Wednesday too. Brilliant!

H. S.

Nice food - plenty to eat. Gravy boat and Yorkshire were forgotten but rectified when told staff.

M. B.

Firstly the food is heavenly but what I love more is the atmosphere and the staff are so friendly they remember you and treat you as friends. My Grandson has complex needs and I struggle getting him out in a lot of areas. This pub is the first pub he has stayed and eaten. I never feal judged and the plus side is I can take my frenchie as the staff love him and always make a fuss of him. Always offers on food. Very good choices and it's fresh home cooked and tasty not like some I've been to and food has been reheated from frozen. 100% recommended has been a lifesaver for our family.

D. T.

Just been in with 14 friends and neibours for the Christmas menu and wow, what a meal. Good portion size and service was perfect. We will all be coming back soon. Thanks to the staff they were a very helpful.

P. N. C.

really enjoyed the meal and staff pleasantries

A. O.

1st visit to this cozy pup. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Ordered a light bite Macaroni cheese and my companion ordered a club sandwich with chips. Food came promptly and was really tasty. Just what I needed on a cold winters day. Will return for another meal from extensive menu.

r. g.

Excellent service as usual brendon and Chris are spot on

S. R.

Food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful l would recommend this place to everyone who wants to eat and drink and enjoy the atmosphere

a. w.

Good food, decent prices (even today!) , great selection, nice atmosphere , fairly quick service :)

P.

We had good food, I think if you are going to eat here, afternoons are the best as I have been before in the evening and the food wasn't so good but today had a great meal of scampi with chips and mushy peas x as always happy smiling lady served I didn't catch her name but she is always there so friendly and delivers excellent customer service 😀

i.

The food was good and service was polite and quick, although it was a quiet Saturday afternoon. The menus were filthy and stuck together. A sauce bottle was stuck to its holding box. They only needed wiping and drying. The toilet seat I used was barely attached. The hot running water was the perfect temperature with soap available. Seating comfy. "Small" quibbles but they all add up. Additional....nice little corner, inside, for children and climbing frame and seating outside

M. H.

Always good service and good food. Excellent value for money too.

C. W.

Great family experience Andrew was fab. Thank you.

C. F.

Just popped in for a drink today good atmosphere and pleasant staff

J. K.

Just had a wonderful meal. Great quality and very quick service. David who serviced us and showed us to our table was wonderful. Very friendly and seemed to be working very hard!

A. T.

Went for a birthday party with a large group of 14 people. We ordered in advance and did not have to wait long for our food. Menu offered a exciting range at good value, the the food did not disappoint. Customer service was fantastic. Great pub, would recommend 👍

J. L.

Came for food the other day (26th May) amd it was amazing! Josh behind the bar was outstanding!

R. M.

Really good friendly pub. Staff are really helpful and understood my gluten free allergy. Menu is great with alot of options covering various dishes and was no problem getting a table without booking. Would recommend to come with family and friends

P. T.

Went for dinner Monday night and had a lovely time. Laid out well and felt like proper safety measures had been taken. Been a few times over the last year and seems to have been a change for the better the last couple of times we've went, management seems to have stepped up quite a bit

J. H.

What an absolute delight this place is! Took the family for our annual Hogmanay feast and it was a slap up meal I'll tell you! The drinks and service here are great and the beer is ice cold! Only fault I found was there was an acrylic nail in my mash potato but it didn't take anything away from the creamy taste. Great vinyl flooring

N. B.

We visited Penny Farthing with friends so there were four adults and four children with ages ranging from 10 down to 2 years old, for a Sunday lunch. This was at the beginning of September, so it was still quite warm, so we opted to sit outside so the kids could play on the playground. The menu was great with plenty of choice for all the kids and one of our party is a vegetarian. The food did take quite a long time to come out, which was disappointing and when it arrived, some of the meals looked a little less appetizing than we had hoped. However, for the most part, the meals were very tasty. The member of our party who was vegetarian had opted for the cauliflower tacos as her first choice was out of stock...when her dish arrived, it was basically cauliflower which had been deep fried and then put in a taco.... By the time it came around to looking at deserts (due to the length of time it took for the dinners to come out) we had been at the restaurant for over two and a half hours and it was starting to get cold, so we all went inside. We managed to find a table for all eight of us and there was a small play area suitable for the younger kids as well as a good choice of board games for the older ones. The deserts were fantastic. The staff were all helpful and friendly although the restaurant, by the time we were ready to leave, did look rather messy and grubby as they didnt seem to have enough time to clear tables. Pricewise, the menu was very reasonable so no complaints there. The only downside was that the lady who had the deep fried cauliflower was poorly when she got home.....We do not believe it was food poisoning or anything sinister like that, however....more likely the large amount of fat covering the cauliflower which she was not used to eating. All in all, though, if you're looking for a reasonably priced meal for a family and you have a little time to spare, it would be worth checking The Penny Farthing out 👍🏻

A. S.

Great pub and great staff always take time to talk to you even if they are busy Ian and the team are doing a great job 💯

S.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, warm welcome, no nonsense, quick and easy service. However you may want to book / reserve a table if you are visiting in a group during busy periods. My last visit I just went around noon with my youngest son. He had a Sunday lunch too well some of it anyway , then after he visited the pay area with coloured lights and a table game with he enjoyed sliding round the floor. There’s also a children’s play park just opposite so that’s even a bigger reason to visit the pub

C. B.

Staff were very welcoming and friendly and the good was delicious. Prices are reasonable and my little boy loved the little play area! Will definitely be back!

S. B.

Lovely staff very friendly. Good food at reasonable prices. Had a nice lunch
