The Squire Inn — Restaurant in England

Extremely disappointing visit and will not return. 2 of us were seated and told someone would be back to take drinks order. This took over 10 minutes. Meanwhile, a much larger table was seated next to us and had their orders taken. Their drink order arrived before ours had been taken. Ordered one beef roast and one lamb roast. Was average and certainly not worth the prices being charged. There are several better quality and better value roast lunches in the area. Ordered cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets as extra. Cauliflower cheese was full of stalks and certainly not worth the £4.95 being charged. Even if this came as part of the roast, it still wouldn't make the price of £19.50 for the dinner feel any better value. It was truly awful. Pigs in blankets didn't arrive. My partner eventually caught the waitress' attention after around 10 minutes, she asked where they were....really wish she hadn't now! Waitress apologised, went straight to the kitchen and brought back a pot with 4 cold, dried up, burnt things in it. The sausage was completely dry and crumbly. Probably the worst pig in blanket I have ever tried to eat. We left these. Again, if they'd have been included in the price of the lunch, the prices being charged is still not justified. No check on us during the meal or issues would have been highlighted. Restaurant area was incredibly hot, lots of people fanning themselves with menus. By the time i'd finished lunch, I just wanted to leave. Waitress came to clear the table, still didn't ask if everything was ok. Just asked if we'd like to see the dessert menu. I replied "no, we'll just pay the bill please". Waitress said ok and disappeared. I'd already seen the dessert menu and wasn't going to pay £7.95 for any dessert after the quality of food I had already been presented with. Who can justify £7.95 for 3 scoops of ice cream anyway? I think that just proves how overpriced this place actually is!

Waitress didn't come back with the bill or card machine, neither did anyone else. We waited for 20 minutes and I decided to pay on the way out. It was only after, I realised that a 10% service charge had also been added to the bill of this overpriced food. Had I realised, this would have been taken off as the service was...

The menu made it look like it was going to be decent but as soon as we walked in it was obvious that it was trying to look like something that it most certainly was not. We nearly left at this point but as we’d come quite a way to meet someone we stuck with it. The staff were a mixed bag, one lovely and one not so much. Some of my meal was served cold but my steak was quite nice although really nothing special. Another steak was dry, tasteless and chewy. Chef needs to go on a course of seasoning and sauce making, they were not good. Desserts were so basic and just standard bought in and sliced up, pop a scoop of ice cream on the side kinda things, the kind of pie they’re making a £6 profit on per slice, very posh pubby, without the posh. Serving peas as the one bit of colour on a £34 steak is unforgivable in my opinion. No self respecting restaurant is doing that these days and my one peas of advice would be to maybe try something different there. Also, either lower your prices or raise your quality as the two don’t really align right now. Although, saying that I’m really not too fussed as I won’t be going back but it might make you a little busier on a Saturday lunchtime. A note to anyone with young kids - it took nearly 2 and half hours to get served some steaks and a few desserts and the place was dead. The only things making this 2 stars were my steak and the good half of the staff’s friendliness, sadly not her attentiveness. Oh and the prices were not the same as on the website and the chips were not...

The SteakHouse at the Squire Inn is a local place to go to eat steak and other delicious meals. I have been there many times since it’s been the Steak House and the cuts of meat are always amazing! They can accommodate large tables if you give them enough notice and the restaurant is lovely. The restaurant is set to the side of the main pub but you don’t get too much noise from the pub which is nice! The staff are always friendly and welcoming, a couple of times I have had a few slight order mix-ups but the staff were quick to rectify them. One time I visited the Steak House and asked for a bottle of red wine which came out stone cold as it had been kept in the cellar, however the rest of the times I have been I have greatly enjoyed it. I have also had a Leg of Lamb Sunday Roast there before and the lamb was very fatty and it only took about 4 minutes from when I ordered it for our food to actually come out so I had wondered how long had it been sat around because it was warm but not hot. The Squire itself is a nice place to go for a drink and watch the football. Sometimes it can get very busy but it’s nice inside and the bar staff are friendly and quick to serve you. The outside seating area is nice in the sunny weather and there are a lot of...
