Reviews of Sir Thomas Wyatt Beefeater
G. P.
Came here a tried the 2 courses for £10 and was pleasantly surprised after going to another beefeater and having a bad experience. Restaurant was extremely clean both inside and out, friendly staff and our oder came out quickly. Tasty, sizzling hot food for a good price! I will definitely be returning.
M. S.
Food was excellent, can't fault it. However, blue badge parking bays are at the front of the building while the step free entrance is at the back of the building and not clearly sign posted. Impossible to walk the distance from parking bay to step free entrance. This clearly needs a rethink, the disabled bays should be positioned by the step free entrance and clearly sign posted. Staff and meals can't be faulted though, highly recommend.

Sorry I have had to remove 1 star.
Have eaten in here for years and have generally always been very happy with the food and service. Had a meal this evening which was fine and staff were very nice but when I arose from my seat, I was very surprised to see what I had been sitting on(please see attached photo). The staff here all work extremely hard, a bit of head office management support /training along with building TLC would not go a miss. Please be aware Beefeater have had some unbeatable deals over the summer months as an example any two main meals for £12, yes that's correct.
Update 27/09/2022 Please see last photograph for new house white wine very fruity and quite pleasant. Had a great meal (probably one of the best we have had in the Sir Thomas Wyatt , hopefully if we get a similar experience I will increase the star rating.

Lovely building, with a good size car park. Disabled access. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. £9.50 for an unlimited cooked breakfast, with continental buffet. Well worth the money, with lots of choice, from juices, tea, coffee, cereal, toast, crumpets, croissants, selection of spreads, fruit, yoghurts etc. To top it off, kids eat free! Family friendly. Will be visiting again.

We were a party of 8 having Sunday roast at Sir Thomas Wyatt. The place is nice, service was great and food was served hot and it was gorgeous. Portions were very generous and we all loved the meal.
M. J.
Delightful place, service good - food lovely, hot, good selection
R. C.
Went for dinner as a family of 8. Food was good. Staff were very polite and helpful. Chloe who was our server was rushed off her feet, despite this she was very helpful and still made us feel welcome and made time to chat with us.
S. H.
Family meal for 5, 3 with dietary requirements. Our waitress was very understanding to this and nothing was to much trouble, she made us feel so welcome and valued. Food took a while but was very good. We will be returning.
I. 4.
The overall service was very good, the 4 of us enjoyed the look and taste of our chosen meals, the only issue was that the food was tepid at best for 3 of us. I have seen other reviews on here complaining about tepid food. I would definatly eat there again, but I would certainly send my food back next time if its as cold as it was before.
L. G.
Nice place , friendly staff, stayed in the prem inn next door , breakfast was good ,plenty of it . My son liked the ice cream
L. B.
Came here for breakfast.. cooked breakfast was very nice.. we all really enjoyed it.. choice on the continental was great from croissants, crumpets to cereals and fruits.. what's even better is kids eat free.. Will definitely be coming back
E. B.
We held my Mums wake here yesterday. Pricing for food was very reasonable. There was so much food & everyone enjoyed it. Staff & chef were very friendly. They ensured everything was ok & the space was lovely. Thank you so much for making the day easy & stress free. Would highly recommend, thank you!
S. S.
Sunday breakfast. Nicely cooked, very tasty. Quite busy but service was prompt. Staff were polite and friendly. Would visit again and recommend.
L. P.
Held a wake here, and were absolutely blown away by attentive service and plenty of food. Staff couldnt have made a difficult time any easier than they did, and we're very grateful for their compassionate demeanour.
W. G.
The hotel rooms are always hot in summer months, even when outside temperatures are average or below. Had a fan on and the windows open 24 hours a day, but it was still too warm.
P. K.
Excellent service, very friendly staff, totally accommodating to the needs of our 2 girls who both have disabilities….would highly recommend. Stayed at the Premier Inn next door….absolutely no issues with disabled parking around the back of the building and flat access from there to both hotel and restaurant
R. A.
Staff are friendly and we enjoyed a hot few hours in the afternoon with a few drinks outside and a catch-up. Bar food was good too.
S. C.
The service was amazing. The staff were so helpful, even though it was busy, they quickly got anything we needed. The food (especially the Sunday Roast!) was absolutely delicious, the desserts are the best, and reasonably priced and food & drinks were served promptly. Definitely need to book ahead on a weekend. Very clean and very welcoming.
M. A.
Great food. Went for a roast, not too bad.
If you like a lot of stuffing on your plate you'll be a bit disappointed. Just one golf ball sized ball of stuffing.
Other than that, a decent meal.
Friendly staff and good drink.
C. M.
food in the evening was really nice and derseves at least a 4. The staff were fantastic esp Joe.
Unfortunately the breakfast was a major let down esp for my 11 year old daughter who can't have milk. Having seen the allergen book She wanted scrambled eggs without milk. Didn't think it would be that difficult. I do it at home. How can you expect anyone to eat the eggs that my daughter was served Let alone a child with an intolerance? Disgusting Why was it allowed to leave the kitchen like that?
K. J.
Nice. Cant really add more then that. Day time meal deal was a bargain, had to send the chicken from the curry back as they tasted crunchy 😳....not sure if it was microwaved. Everything is basic, my daughter liked the chicken wings but wasn't crazy on them....I'd go back for a pudding and a drink but nothing else wise. Staff were friendly and the restaurant felt cozy (even if windows are old worn wood frame, they feel like they're open with how much draft came through!) Overall nice.
J. C.
Only used the bar area.
Clean and tidy. The Scottish barman was very polite and a pleasure to talk to. Prices were OK.
Only downfall is the broken and uncomfortable seating. Could do with an upgrade with the furniture.
Also a shame there is no nice outdoor seating.
M. B.
As a regular I find the evening meals very good with a good choice and good service too
V. S.
Really good Sunday lunch, I was very impressed. Loved the swede and carrot mash and the cauliflower cheese and the beef was very tasty. Definitely will be visiting again.
R. M.
We went to the fields first there was 4 items on the menu we picked the steak and was told that there wasn’t any as they were waiting for a delivery we walked out and went up to your beefeater and had a lovely steak meal there which was first class we would highly recommend it
Yours Mr & Mrs Moss
N. R.
A pleasant surprise. Good service, fine food and excellent service from our waitress Carol. Very reasonable prices. We will be back.
D. L.
Good food, reasonable prices and a brilliantly fun quiz night
T. C.
Lovely little beef eater! Very friendly staff with some lovely food.
The decor was very welcoming and the food was lovely!
M. B.
Had a lovely Sunday roast dinner service was spot on as usual cld not ask for any more and definitely will be going back for another meal
B. W.
Fantastic service from friendly professional staff great choice of food and drink lovely atmosphere would recommend it every timeb
J. B.
Carol was a lovely waitress and very patient allowing our 7 and 4 year old children to order their own meals
G. L.
Had breakfast here which was very good. Really friendly and nice staff, although your singing was just ok, lol.
Z. B.
Great family meal, our server, Carol was lovely and friendly. Great first visit, we will return!
S. T.
Excellent all you can eat breakfast with everything and hot drinks for £9:50. Personal service😃😃
s. m.
The service was great staff all work so hard. The menu is awful… get your act together beefeater…… this isn’t 1970 anymore!!!!
s. b.
Overall the food was of good quality but the bread which came with the prawn cocktail was hard and curled up, it was replaced but by a slice straight from the freezer, therefore not a hope in hell on spreading the butter. The red wine was also far too cold for serving. The staff working in front of restaurant were very courteous and accomodating to our needs but I think behind the scenes attention is needed.
L. D.
Lovely Food, amazing espresso martini!
only downside looks like it needs a bit of love
A. H.
1st time having Christmas Dinner out.
Karen our waitress was exceptional we were amazed at how busy it was but Karen was attentive and full if smiles. As you would expect not as good as my own home Christmas Dinner but considering the number of covers the kitchen staff had to cater for and table turn around it was a delightful Christmas Dinner and we will return again when possible. Thank you to all the staff who made today a special day
M. J.
Food was excellent , but the only thing that let it down was that the service was really slow and it wasn't even busy .
M. B.
Despite several items of food and drink on the menu being unavailable, the food we did have was good, cooked just right and filling.
The service was very good and friendly and the cost wasn't too bad either.
R. P.
Well not been hear for a while but wow this is a much better place to dine now. The food was pipping hot which is rare now days with restaurants. Too say we could not fault this Beefeater it has it all great staff lovely menu and really tasty food. Thank you Sir Thomas Wyatt for a great tasty and hot meal. The Mixed grill is amazing.......
S. A.
We came here as a party of seven and was served by Katherine in the restaurant and she was excellent, serving with a smile and very friendly and helpful. The food was good, served promptly and very tasty. As we are staying in the hotel we will be definitely coming back again. Highly recommend.
T. O.
Nice environment. good food. I enjoyed the free softdrink refills. I think it's a little expensive but that could be from where I'm up north and the prices are alot cheaper. Over a good venue.
K. A.
Mouthwatering food, excellent customer service and very clean environment
S. B.
Great price for all you can eat hot breakfast as well as other delicious things on the side. There is something for everyone.
D. B.
We were staying at the Premier Inn and took advantage of the meal deal which was good value, good choice and enjoyable food.
C. M.
Lovely food and great service, staff work hard
J. M.
Nice place , driven past it many times , decided to stop there for lunch.
Excellent lunch quick service we had the curry , splendid came with nanny bread and poppadoms.
Very good choice , service was quick and very pleasant staff , the food was very tasty .
Be going back soon.
K. G.
Went there with girls for lunch.....service slow, waited awhile for food and when it came gammon could of been cooked longer and peas were cold,not alot of chips....desert had caramel apple pie and custard.....apple pie not cooked properly and custard warm......will I eat there again.....no
M. L.
Went here for breakfast. All was good apart from the coffee which was tastless.
G. W.
Took parents out to lunch on the 4th September, no problems with the food we had lots of choice on the menu, but many dishes not available for some reason. We thought the value was expensive over only two courses. I think around 20% more expensive than other street brand pub / restaurants, Could be the reason for not many people in the restaurant at peak time.
T. P.
Food was ok. Nothing special. I wish they still did unlimited chips and very strangely, our menu had no prices on it at all. Ordered T bone steak, but as always they didn't have it. Don't know why they put it on the menu? Service was slow at times to and struggled to get someone to take my payment at the end. Seemed more concerned with clearing and cleaning various other tables. Used to be better
R. W.
Great food ,really nice friendly staff
M. L.
It was fantastic it was Excellent it was mother's day my family took me service was great it was like home from home
K. A.
Food was amazing, cooked how we asked and piping hot. Staff very friendly and polite. Definitely the best way to celebrate the end of the year xx
J. L.
Fantastic meal sensible price and wonderful service will be going again
R. D.
This is the big beefeater near DFS. Decent food and nice layout.
Lovely burger. Pudding menu not as good as it used to be.
Choice of bar or restaurant.
Made a day of it. DFS in the morning, Beefeater lunch, world’s worst Waitrose after!
M. B.
We have eaten in the restaurant many times while staying at the Premier Inn attached and have always found the breakfasts to be excellent.
The only negative comment would be the the restaurant is looking tired and could do with a makeover.
N. Q.
Very polite and welcoming staff,Nice food.
R. B.
Great food great service was my sister's 40th very attentive staff very patient with the 5 young children. Due to supply issues they didn't have slit but they excelled and what they had l. Would visit again
P. C.
It's a great place to visit always great polite staff very helpful and friendly very good experience food is a very high level of quality and great attention to detail well worth a visit
V. R.
Really hot meals and friendly service, we were a large party and all meals arrived within minutes of each other well done all staff.
M. C.
Nice place to go and staff were very helpful and friendly couldn't ask for more.
j. c.
Me my husband and son came in today for a lovely Sunday roast, we were greeted at the door by the manager Colin who was very friendly welcoming an attentive to our needs, we were shown and seated at our table and was greeted by the waitress Carol, who again was friendly professional and couldn't do enough for us, food was amazing and will defo visit again 😊.
G. H.
Great service food has good selection also for vegetarian
P. B.
Good quality food and good service.
K. S.
Very lovely staff and great food. We couldn't have wished for a warmer welcome. We stayed in the premier Inn next door and the staff in both the premier Inn and the Beafeater were always courteous.
E. B.
Hot food ok but all tables still dirty from previous customers 🥴
C. G.
Friendly prompt service. Wide choice and cooked well.
L. C.
Delicious food Great value and lovely staff
A. A.
A very friendly staff and super nice atmosphere to hangout with family or friends.Food is not very pricey. But equally the quantity is not much either. One platter/menu item should be filling for one person. The taste is really great. There is one item (Chicken with the mushroom sauce) which was the best among the 6-7 items we ordered. Would definitely suggest it.
M. C.
Usual Beefeater refinements and adjacent to a Premier Inn if an overnight stay is preferred. Good menu and friendly staff book in advance as it does get busy at times. Lots of free parking shared with the hotel.
s. D.
Yummy food .good atmosphere ..good service too .
t. c.
Under staffed so very slow service but the staff that was there were very nice and friendly. Food average
T. G.
Excellent service, very friendly helpful staff, good food and excellent value. Recommended
M. D.
Food ok but not brilliant for the price.
K. K.
Not the best experience. Didn't have half of the menu, due to supply and lack of deliveries. The food we did have wasn't great either. Have Bern going to the Thomas Wyatt for years so bit disappointed.
A. “. D.
Super Carol!
The best waitress I've ever come across. Friendly, efficient, and super human to keep calm on a busy service.
Taken to our reserved table by a smiling man, (sorry I forgot your name),who took our drinks orders.
Food and drinks presented promptly, always asked if we needed anything else, if we were happy etc. Our food was hot and value for money. We had the meal deal so three courses and two drinks came to just under £30, a real bargain. The table ,and areas clean and tidy.
But the outstanding service, friendly welcome will be the thing that would encourage to return if in the area.
Carol is a treasure, so Beefeater treasure her.
E. N.
Lovely place to visit. The meals were delicious and service was up to scratch. Entertainment for the night was by a magician and was really exciting.
R. P.
Not exactly local to me but as we had been shopping at dunelm etc we thought we'd chance our luck...... and lucky we were! Not having booked we were offered a table right by the entrance, so what? A table's a table, right?
Service was quick and efficient considering they were busy.
Food was excellent, to start I had chicken wings and my wife had the mushrooms, both hot and well presented. We both had the lamb roast, what a great choice. The portions ample the meat perfectly cooked and a good choice of veg to boot......
Only thing I would say is BOOK A TABLE to avoid missing out on this little gem
S. C.
Best Breakfast in town! Defiantly recommended 👌
E. M.
Excellent food and service! It was my daughter's birthday, the staff got the whole restaurant singing happy birthday to her. And it wasn't a problem for them bringing out the cake as a surprise. We will definitely be coming again! Thanks to the staff especially Sharon!
S. S.
Exceptionally helpful and friendly staff, and Chloe, our waitress was really efficient, friendly and professional. Service was superb, thank you Chloe. Food piping hot and tasty.
J. B.
Went on a sunday dinner time; seated promptly by a very cheerful lady, drinks brought over quickly and order taken. One item on the menu was not available but this did not affect our table of 6. Service was great especially considering it was Mothers day and very very busy, our waiter (aaron) was attentive but not intrusive, all meals arrived correctly and together, and were good portion sizes for the money. Restaurant was busy but clean and all the staff members we saw were smiley and helpful.
A. D.
Unfortunately they had run out some starters
It was not busy but slow service
Overall the food we had was nice
What was not very nice was the gents toilet needed to be cleaned
L. N.
It was rather busy when we attended, somewhat understaffed bit of a wait for food and drinks but overall a lovely meal. I would go back again.
P. W.
The staff were very friendly and did not rush us. The food was cooked to perfection. The fish I had was not greasy but nice crispy coating and not dried out inside which I find in many places. Would definitely come again.
M. R.
Service was rather slow, but the food was great. Son had what he referred to as the best burger he'd ever tasted, double beef patties with lobster, then managed a huge pudding as well! Unfortunately I was driving, so no review of the beers and wine this time.
h. m.
Greeted immediately by a friendly face! Served at the bar immediately! Seated at a table in less than 5 minutes. Service was excellent, Sharon is fantastic!!! Happy and polite. Food was okay for the pricing and had no problems. Can't believe that the daytime waiting staff have not only got to serve the general public all day and do a fantastic job of it but have to do the desserts too as there's only desserts chef.... this is disgusting sort it out beefeater!!!!!!!
P. B.
Friendly, good service, but the food is just okay now. The menu is not very inventive and further limited since covid. Not great portions either for price ...all a bit lack lustre sadly. The family used to love it....not so much now.
P. S.
Had a lovely meal tonight, our waitress Lisa was excellent. I had a drink in my hand within 10mins of sitting down. The food was very good despite fairly low expectations. With a '40% off mains' voucher my family had a thoroughly enjoyable meal for less that forty pounds. Will definitely be back.
A. M.
After my second attendance I can say that the staff were very attentive the atmosphere was excellent and the food was pretty good I say that because I prefer my chilli to be hotter otherwise well done and thank you to the staff.
T. O.
I have not eaten here in years and am very happy to say it was lovely and a very good service. Will definitely be eating here again 😊
E. T.
Staff were great, very accomodating and frinedly to our children. However, a dish we ordered was disappointing so had to go back (the server said it wasn't right!) We were waiting a while for just a sharer and a kids meal. The kids main meal was quite generous but arrived well after our sharer had been finished. Also the floor was covered in what looked like lunch times party leftovers so felt a bit like we just stuck out the back bit in the unloved area.
V. M.
Covid-19 safe with disposable menus. Staff curiously slow to take drink orders and even slower to take food order. Otherwise food was ok but couldn't see difference between my medium rare and my daughters well done steaks!
A. D.
We went for breakfast. Service excellent considering how busy it was. Good range of continental breakfast, cereals etc buffet followed by choice of cooked breakfast. I had nicely cooked poached eggs and tasty black pudding. Great value.
A. G. U.
Went here for Christmas meal on Christmas Day well impressed food lovely and hot plenty of it good service deff return again well done x
M. N.
We drop in to the Sit Thomas Wyatt from time to time. We like the varied menu and the very reasonable rates, particularly before 6.30pm. The food always seems to be good and we have often remarked on the efficiency and friendliness of Carol, one of their very long serving waitresses. Nothing is too much trouble for her and she is always very cheerful.
N. M.
Warm welcome, reasonable prices, lovely food and Georgie our waitress was a little gem. Nothing too much trouble. Thank you for making my sister's birthday special for her
A. C.
Great food, friendly staff. My husband and 2 kids love eating here when we visit Kent.
T. A.
Left waiting in reception for ages even passing staff ignored us. Service slow drinks orders wrong, vegetables very over cooked. Lots of dishes unavailable
L. “. N.
Popped in on the off chance there would be a table for 3 , for Sunday Lunch. I was greeted by a friendly and pleasant manager, who was helpful and offered a table right away . We each ordered the vegetable Wellington , which was beautifully cooked as were the veg, Yorkshires and roast potatoes . Good portion size and great value for money . The service from the waiter was polite and nothing was to much trouble , Even when I had difficulty using the card machine to pay for the meal. In all, a relaxing and enjoyable time
E. B.
What a long wait we had for our dinner today. It was at least an hour. Food was good however the portions are not enormous. I had steak and thick cut chips all 10 of them. If I had not had a starter then I would probably left the restaurant hungry. 2 in the company had salmon which was a good potion and very well cooked. 1 in the party had lamb rump and none of us could believe the small portion he was served. The lamb consisted of 5 pieces that would have fitted in palm of your hand. That was very disappointing and we all had to share some food with him because of his meager portion. The lamb cost around £14 but actually the portion served was only worth about £8.
s. s.
Went for the all you can eat breakfast,good choice of food and drinks,great price and kids eat free ,so win win
L. L.
Food, management, staff and atmosphere amazing. Booked a table for 16 people, even though it was a busy night, we had a very attentive waitress (Lisa) who was very helpful and friendly and did everything she could to make our evening a very pleasant experience. Food was amazing and every one thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Highly recommended and we would all visit again.
S. D.
Booked a table for 30 people for my son’s 16th and it was the best experience I’ve had in a restaurant. Staff were amazing They decorated the conservatory area for us. Food was lovely. We all had a lovely time so huge thank you to all of you at Sir Thomas Wyatt!!!!
D. J. I.
Best gammon steak, egg and chips I've ever had. Really cozy place for something to eat. The children's play area is a bit tiny, however the kids still enjoyed it. Free parking, fast service and friendly staff.
M. W.
Sadly let down this time. Went back with friends 1st November. Having decided what we were having we were then told that wife's starter choice was not available. Was not overly impressed by the look of potatoes with the scallops on friends starters. Had good old fish & chips for main, sent it back because my mushy peas were old and cold. On getting my meal back then realised chips were just warm. Friend said that here broccoli was old and woody. Waitress was fairly new to job and tried her best, polite and friendly.
M.
Great food, friendly staff.
A. P.
Stayed for 2 nights.
Really impressed; very quiet at night, very comfortable bed, and a freshly cooked full English breakfast which was really good.
S. B.
Food was excellent. However social distanc ing not so good. We were all huddled on the upper level and nobody anywhere else. Was told they were fully booked. But when we left there was still plenty of tables for social distancing. This would stop me going back even though couldnt fault food.
R. T.
Food was great service not that great as was stuck in a corner of the bar away from restaurant took nearly an hour between main and desert.
J. R.
Very short staffed, but staff on duty did their best to provide a good service. Menu especially for vegetarians not much variety.
D. V.
Had a table booked and sat down.as soon as we arrived. Ordered a surf and turf as it was.my Birthday and it didn't disappoint, followed by a chocolate bomb which melted by pouring hot chocolate sauce over and was yummy
Will be revisiting again soon. I'd recommend this beefeater to everyone as its clean friendly and great value
L. P.
We had a 2 night stay at the Premier inn, very clean and staff very accommodating. We dined, Friday evening, had breakfast Saturday morning, returning in the evening for dinner, and again on Sunday. All food was tasty and well presented. Advised to book as restaurant get very busy. Restaurant staff Carol, Toni and Laura along with the manager Charlotte, work non stop! They are all very efficient and helpful, nothing was a bother. Apologies I cannot recall all other staff's names, you are all very courteous and work extremely hard..Thankyou for a great service, we will return again soon. Linda and Paul Pride. Northamptonshire.
H. A.
Great value for money. 3 courses for £24.99 pp and unlimited soft drink refills. Waitress was super friendly without being intrusive and she even spoke to the children and involved them.
J. H.
Had a long wait at the entrance for someone to come over. It looked as though they were short staffed as we were repeatedly told "one minute". Once someone did arrive we were told they had stopped accepting tastecard (although their website and tastecard etc. said the opposite). As we then considered leaving due to the lack of tastecard we were offered a 40% discount. Once seated everything went smoothly and our food was as to be expected for a beefeater.
One of the group visited another Beefeater in the following days to find that they accepted tastecard no problem so not sure if this was a global beefeater policy or just and individual branch policy.
C. C.
Friendly staff, okay food (apart from my daughter's fruit salad which I'm sure had been frozen and looked very watery and weird)
T. V.
Lovely food. At first portions seemed quite small but in fact they were the perfect size and left feeling very full. Good ambience, good staff, clean and tidy pub/restaurant.
C. O.
Our waitress Carol was just fantastic . She was friendly & attentive. The food never let's down either. Great food very reasonably priced. Overall a great experience will definitely be visiting again.
S. J. (.
It was ok, nothing to complain about really, menu was a little limited but it's not the restaurants fault, blame head office.
A. H.
Breakfast was great, plenty of selection and the staff were only too pleased to go and get more if the buffet had run out. Great selection of pastries, teas and coffee and the cooked breakfast was excellent. Will definitely return!
f. S.
Well food took ages to come and when it did, ive had better at a greesy spoon cafe and the menu is limited to what is advertised ran out of beef and chicken at 14:30 pm on a sunday and dont tell you till after youve ordered?
R. H.
Disappointed with the presentation of the Dom steak pie main course. The very little portion of mashed potato was invisibly hidden under the pie and the gravy was not in a jug but had already poured around the plate, not what I am used to and will not have again. All you could see was the pie and a spoonful of vegetables surrounded by the gravy. My brother had baked beans instead of vegetables which was just a very small spoon size measure. Standards are slipping in this place and not what they used to be.
M. G.
I was pleasantly surprised by Beefeater. Very tasty food and fast service despite us only seeing 2 or 3 server's. Reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food. I'd recommend and plan to return soon.
J. H.
Never had a bad meal here, and everyone the staff have been nice
E. J.
Excellent lunch with friends today.
Lovely, cosy restaurant with efficient, friendly staff. We all enjoyed our choices from the varied menu. Good value.
H. G.
Great place to eat and loved the service(orange was mine)
L. M.
A bit pricey but nice food so not to bothered
S. M.
Haven't had much luck with a beefeater. ..but dropped our daughter at a concert and didn't really want to leave the area, so decided to 'chance it'.
Was proved wrong. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and most importantly lovely food . Nicly presented, Hot and tasty .
L. S.
Very nice meal slow service again especially drinks again.
A. G.
Service was excellent and beef/steaks were very well cooked and prepared. However, the side dishes were very average and the sweet potato fries were undercooked and hard. food was a little over priced.
V. A.
Food was ok, but nothing special. Had to remind staff twice for drink that I ordered.
Very quiet at 1oclock lunchtime. Only 6 people in.
Don’t think we will be going back.
H. C.
Great food,great service
t. h.
Service gets better the more times that we go. On a down side it's a pity that some of the parents that bring young children into the restaurant don't always know how they should behave so as not to spoil the occasion for other customers.
F. A.
Always a favourite. A lovely family pub with excellent food and equally excellent staff. Have shared many meals, birthdays and holiday meals here with my family and we keep coming back. Reasonably priced and good food.
A. t.
We came here as a group of 7 for a birthday meal. Drink selection was poor as they was out of stock on a few items, which surprises me as its a chain. Food was good for the price and you got a lot of it. Waiting staff were good albeit service was slow
D. J.
Great staff and very prompt service
P.
Great choice of food available at a great price! And of course it being connected to Premiere inn is just a win:win situation.
Staff member who served me was a lovely lady and the breakfast on offer was ranged and really nice.
D. P.
Good food and great service. Booking is recommended as there may be a wait if you don't. Good, accessible location, although the car park can get very busy. Recommended.
c. g.
Lovely meals. Great personal service. 👏
M. H.

All the staff were very friendly, helpful and the duty manager even talked me into the hotel as I had a car tyre blow out, the food was excellent.
Can't thank the staff for there help, and frendlyness, I stay in premium Inn hotels 4x per month, this hotel and restaurant staff tops the bill.
Please pass my sincere thanks to all.

In the 19th century, Sir Thomas Wyatt was a popular innkeeper, amateur naturalist and innovative chef - perhaps best described as Al Murray, Chris Packham and Heston Blumenthal rolled into one
He was knighted in 1867 for his charitable work in the preservation (and cooking) of hedgehogs. It was a pleasure to enjoy one of his legendary recipes last Saturday
