Raikes Hall — Restaurant in England

I terms of value for money, this place is hard to beat. Visited here for a Saturday lunch with 5 other family members when I was up visiting my parents and my sister. We had 2 fish finger sandwiches, 2 steak & ale pies, 2 goat curries and a portion of chips with 4 half-pints and 2 pints, all of which came in at around £55! The food was plentiful and tasty and served fairly quickly - the chips are big and chunky, crisp on the outside with fluffiness within. The goat curry, my choice, was good, nicely flavoured, cooked on the bone with well cooked rice. The fish finger sandwiches were on lovely soft bread, with a good helping of those chunky chips, a pot of tartar sauce and a salad garnish, both who had them enjoyed them. The pies were homemade, with crisp shortcrust pastry and a plentiful and tasty filling, served with chunky chips and peas - again enjoyed by both who had it. A great place to go for a nice meal that is most...

DO NOT VISIT! find somewhere else!!!! After reading all the amazing reviews, I was really looking forward to eating and drinking here. Where do I start, the bar staff are constantly on their mobile phones and talking/laughing behind the bar to each other (very unprofessional). The toilets were really filthy, and had pee on the floor and on the toilet seat. Not to mention there was no soap at all to use...so what are the bar staff using? I was totally put off ordering food so didn't bother due to what I had witnessed in the bathroom. My wine glass had lipstick on it so had to ask for another glass much to the delight of the staff member who laughed and then slammed down another glass. The floors and tables really needed cleaning as I even asked for a cloth but nobody came to wipe our table. It was just horrible. I've been to much better pubs and have never had to give a bad review ever. Look elsewhere...

Went in this pub a few weeks ago as it's my new local just to be told I couldn't have a drink as the landlord thought I was drunk I explained to the landlord I had a disability and he said I don't care so my friend went in here by the way works in a pub and she said about my disability and basically he said I don't care he can't come in I think as a landlord it was disgusting behavior I understand they have a duty but putting me down because I have disability is disgusting my granddad normally goes in to be darts he won't be going back in I would just like everybody to know as I'm finding it difficult to think how he can get away with it bear in mind I was drinking in the pub the night before at the bar and he did not have a problem taking my money of me I will be taken...
