Came for the first time on a first date. It was extremely quite, but this was preferred due to ill health. The staff were very welcoming and cheerful. Although I wish the lovely young lady had a bit more confidence when speaking- as sometimes it was very muffled. The starters were absolutely amazing. We had breaded mushrooms, and creamy garlic mushrooms. Came out very fast and served very hot!!!! The side salad was wasted so maybe ask if people want it with or without.

We replied, "eating" and he told us that it was a Sunday and they have a carvery on until 6:00 pm and after that it was hard luck if you wanted food. What an attitude. It was a lovely day and there must have been lots of people about looking for some sustenance, but the Waterwheel Inn were not interested. We left and went up the road to the Jolly Sailor. There, they had an extensive menu and were packed out. The next time I am in the area, I shall not even give this Inn a try. There are much better...
