Anything I feel like I'm going to say in this review just won't do it justice but I'll try....Kas is an incredible woman, what she does for her community (check out their FB page you'll see what I mean!) is literally the definition of an unsung hero, but that wasn't the only reason we booked a party of nearly 30 people for a Sunday roast! The staff were spot on & the magic Kas & her team created in the tiny kitchen she has to work with was unbelievable & when Kas said she'll sort us out a Henry VIII banquet she wasn't joking! It truly was a banquet fit for a royalty, from homemade Yorkshire puddings (eat your heart out Aunt Bessie!) & cheesy leeks to red cabbage & 4 different types of meat (& something for the vegans & vegetarians too!) everyone was more than happy with the quality as well as the amount! Honestly I can't thank you enough Kas, you made what would normally be a stressful situation into one where I didn't have to worry at all & you took it all in your stride. I seriously can't thank you all enough! Hope to see you again...
Read moreNot been in this pub since leaving the Army over 20 years ago. Not much changed on the outside, can't comment on the inside due to Covid. We sat in the beer garden and ordered our drinks via the app and they were promptly delivered to our table by a cheerful member of staff. They have obviously invested in some outdoor gazebos and are not bad at all. There is even a TV in the large one. We only popped in whilst travelling through Farnborough, so not my local and I can't comment on what it is like in the evenings or when it is busy. But it was fine on a Saturday at about 3pm. There was one guy sitting on the veranda drinking and every second word out of his mouth was the "F" word, it would have been nice to see the staff requesting for less swearing, so would not be good to have children at that particular time. Dropped one star...
Read morePopped in for a Sunday roast with no booking. Warm friendly service greeted us both. The quality of the meat was really good. My beef was juicy and succulent and so too was my partner's belly of pork. There was no cracking, as promised in the menu, but it was so good that she did not complain. I found out later, after winning a crown in the meat raffle, that they use Woods Butchers( a highly reputable local butcher). The cauliflower cheese was very good. Very cheesy. However, despite the great presentation of the veg, it did let the meal down. Parsnips were a bit hard and the green beans were a bit rough. Roast potatoes were ok. Without the friendly service and quality of the meat, it would have been a 4 star. I'd like to try it again and hopefully they will up their game...
