Returned here after attending a valentine's special many years ago where everything was amazing so we thought we would have our anniversary meal here but I wish I hadn't. The staff were friendly, they set a nice table but that's where it ended. My steak was very chewy, I did eat it as I usually don't like to waste food but I just couldn't get through the rest. Onion rings were filled with oil, chunky chips that were just frozen from a packet and deep fried. The side salad had a few bits that were edible but the lettuce was wilted and the cucumber tasted like chemicals and I had to spit it out. Husband had the lamb which he said was nice but again the roast potatoes were the cheap frozen ones and weren't very nice. Toilets were dirty and a bit smelly. The place is generally run down, dirty doors, paint coming off, kids play area is literally a swing and slide for a pre school age and only room for one child. Bill was £50 even though they knocked a bit off for my bad food. Personally wouldn't ever return and wouldn't recommend. The owner was standoffish and insisted the food was totally fine and she likes it....... It's a shame as they did say their food is freshly cooked but that would require them to peel and oven cook a real fresh potato, not get it from a packet. They need to look up what fresh means. We spoke to another couple that were sat opposite and they pulled a face and said the food wasn't much good but they didn't feel brave enough to speak up as they were there the next day for a funeral and didn't want to...
Read moreI wasn't sure if I was going to write this review or not due to a parking ticket. I was going to ask to get it revoked but thought for £60 I'd rather be honest. I threw my wife a surprise 40th in the pavilion a couple of weeks back. Firstly the food was amazing and the room is very nice. However the bar staff thought they'd seen drugs in one of my guests bags, I thought this unusual as they don't take drugs but did say to the owner if it's drugs kick them out but it's a family party so do it discreetly away from the party. They was not discreet at all causing a scene on the patio outside glass doors where everyone can see. The worse thing is this was not drugs it was a mental health aid as the guest was going through some stuff. I then challenged this and the owner was rude only apologised to the guest nothing to me or my wife or any other guests. This i can sort of get but the following day the owner tried to refuse my deposit back because of there mistake which in my eyes is nothing but theft which was unacceptable. Then nearly £2000 on a party and the toilets were the most disgusting toilets i have ever seen and I'm not posh. In the men's there is mould half way up the wall and the floor was covered in mould as if they've had a leak for a long time and done nothing about it. Absolutely disgusting I was embarrassed to make my guests use them. Word of advise if your going to use the pavilion check the toilets before booking if I did i wouldn't have booked. The women's were just as...
Read moreA flawless Wedding service and reception My wife and I held our wedding service and reception at The Hare and Hounds in August.
From start to finish Kellie and her team went above and beyond helping to make our wedding a success and give lasting memories to us and our guests for the rest of our lives.
The ceremony room is intimate and beautiful and the best we saw when looking at potential venues.Meanwhile the function room is lovely too with plenty of room and a decking area to spill out on if the weather is nice which it was for us.
The food was AMAZING!! Both the wedding breakfast and the evening buffet. All of our guests dietary requirements were met without compromise on quality of food. A lot of our guests will be returning to the venue for meals on the basis of the food served to them especially our vegetarian guests. We cannot recommend highly enough this venue for your wedding ceremony and reception. We weren't treated as customers we were treated as friends and so were our guests. Thank you so much to all at The...
