Tiger Inn — Restaurant in England

Well they say you can’t judge a book by its cover and I would say that if your first and only impressions of this pub are anything but quality you have missed out. Having now visited several times our expectations have been raised on each occasion. It is a pub and a country pub at that, it still has its quaint charm, and is not dressed up with the modern antiquities that are used in the updated pubs these days. At the front of the house is the Landlord (John) who makes you feel welcome and always has a smile though now showing the signs of the battering of his Rugby League days, but I must say always cheerful. The bar and serving staff whom the landlord sometimes assists are always very happy and smiling and generally fitting in with the cheerful atmosphere. Then we have the important member of staff the Landlady (Julie) rarely seen at the front of house because she is undertaking her wizardry in the back preparing the food that we love to eat. So what have we tried the Prawn Cocktails, the Crispy Garlic Mushrooms and the Fishcake for starters (my partner being a small eater has even had the fishcake as a main course such is the portion size). We have tried the Mixed Grill, the Rib eye steak, Chicken Caesar Salad, the Steak and Ale pie, the Scampi the Lasagne and now the Sunday Lunch. We tend to stick to the Ice Cream (Burgess’s?) for desert as it is easier to digest after being filled by the main courses. I could say I like them all, the pastry for the pie is nicer that the norm when you go elsewhere, the mixed grill is brilliant too and vegetables are always good and tasty. I will add here there are always the Specials which we have yet to try on the beam overhead. We pop over the hill to this pub it is worth the visit hopefully not too many people will read this because how will I get a seat if it becomes...

I feel compelled to write this review on behalf of my elderly parents. Last Friday they drove out to North Newbald hoping to have a pub lunch. They have, in the past been to both the Tiger & The Gnu many times before. On this occasion they had decided to go to The Gnu, not realising it was closed due to a kitchen fire. This then prompted them to go across the road & to the Tiger instead. When they first parked up my Mother had seen who she believed to be the Landlord of the Tiger, sat outside the pub with his dog and the door to the pub was ajar. On arriving at the pub, the man had disappeared but the door was still ajar. My Dad went to push the door open to enter but the door was pushed back in his face & locked!!! Both of my Parents were extremely shocked and upset at this action. Surely if the pub was not open (although it was just gone 12pm) a staff member or the Landlord could of politely informed my Parents?! I am extremely upset about this too, this is no way to...

Booked a table sat 23rd June looked on line at menu , looked good a choice of food got there 6-30, pub empty asked for menu told its up on the beam, not much to choose from , so we settled for the steak pie and mash and veg .
