The Beckwood pub — Restaurant in England

Visited for the first time this evening. Previous reviews were positive so decided to give it a try. Unfortunately quite disappointed.We both ordered Haddock & Chips.Waited a while for food to arrive but the waitress had said there would be a delay as food is freshly cooked.Fair enough.However,the fish was overcooked and the batter was unappetising and subsequently also dried out the fish.When the waitress asked if all was ok I told her it was overcooked,she said she would pass my comments on.I didn't hear anymore from anyone and when we settled the bill there was no mention of discount, free drink or any other goodwill gesture. Pointless asking for customer comments I thought. It isn't the cheapest venue either.So disappointingly we won't be returning or...

Met by lovely waiting and bar staff, very helpful and engaging. Had a Sunday carvery the server was most pleasant and served generous portions of meat. Garlic and Rosemary crispy roast potatoes, roast carrots and parsnips a choice of vegan/gluten free gravy or, meaty jus to smother your dinner with. Vegetables were al-dente not mush like you would ordinarily find in a carvery.

The decor may be off putting from the outside but the food and staff makes this a 4 star. Improved decor and facilities would make this a 5* experience for a quick family no-nonsense Sunday lunch.

Gluten free options available Disability...

Great food! Amazing staff, very friendly and welcoming.

Edited: me and my family revisited on two occasions since opening inside. We sat down for a meal in the restaurant area and it was lovely, the food was delicious and the timing was perfect, It didnt feel like we waited at all really. Also very well spaced.

The second time I visited was in the bar. Great atmosphere. Pool table, darts board and live sports, up to two channels at a time, 4 small screens and 1 big. The landlord has told me there is 2 more screens in the beer garden, I did not venture out as for the weather conditions.

Highly recommend a visit...
