Trewellard Arms — Restaurant in England

Kiwis traveling the uk. Have spent 4 months travelling and this would be one of the most unfriend landlady we have meet. We went to see if we could watch the rugby after a bit of a joke about saying her dog said we could as we just meet him down the road with a lovely guy walking him. She said without looking at us . didn’t know if she could get it but the nice bar man put it on for us and we sat down with a drink . We also said if they needed to change to the football that was fine. At the time there was only us and another couple . The land lady came down turned the tv over not even a word to us or even a look at us . The other couple said they were happy to watch on the other tv and she said no this one is better . Then she looked at us and said I have to change it as I advertised it to be on. With that they turned the other tv off and the couple moved to watch the tv we had been watching . Not even I’m sorry or would you like to watch with sound down on the other tv to us. So we finished our drinks and left . Politeness was differently not her best quality. We have found all of the English, Irish , Scottish , welsh to be friendly and chatty except for 3 people and she was...

This was definitely a game of two halves. It's a pub and the beer was good. Served well by the landlord, a smashing fella, but not so good by younger staff. The landlady...rude, scruffy, sullen. In fact, all the staff needed to be smarter. Does it affect the beer? No. Does it affect your opinion? Yes. An ironed shirt goes a long way to looking clean and respectable. The pub, a dump. Sticky tables, a pet hate of mine. And the toilets, shameful. The outside space, unkempt, messy, full of broken flowerpots filled with dead flowers. The lobby filled with junk, including a carpet shampooer. Carpets so worn they were black and shiny. Doors that looked like they were decorated for Halloween as they were so black and dirty. A visit out back to use the toilet left me feeling cold. It was filthy! It left me wondering what our food would be like. It was lovely. The pub boasts a 5* food rating. I don't believe it, but I was assured by another customer that I wouldn't be disappointed with my food, and I wasn't. A roaring log fire gave the bar a warm glow. Like I said, A Game...

Since our most recent endeavours ended terribly, we were nervous to try eating out again, but we found this local pub with a lunch menu that seemed to cater for all. A smile from the moment we stepped in, we felt warmly welcomed. The food was absolutely lovely and very clearly homemade (not a microwave dinner in sight!), most definitely the best pub lunch we’ve had in a while! The food arrived quickly (but not suspiciously quick) and it was clear there was effort in the presentation, and the staff seemed ever so happy to help. The ham was so soft and delicious and the chips were SO crispy and yet fluffy on the inside. We’ll be coming back here EVERY time we’re down this way!! Compliments to the chef and everyone involved! You’ve filled us perfectly in time for an...
