Good food , quick service and very friendly staff. Great place to go with family and to take your dogs. Reasonable prices for food and drink. Range of food is great and great selection of lager on tap. Definitely will be returning! Would recommend the carvery for a good selection of meat and veggie options. It's also convenient for regulars that can join the loyalty club for exclusive offers. Lovely atmosphere with music and retro decor. Update: After a recent couple of visits, this place is great all round, unless you bring your dog . A certain member of staff came across very passive aggressive when it comes to dogs , this is the third time ive taken my dog and should of learned the first time (same member of staff had to move our group each time, which set us all in a small closed off corner of the building next to a dog that was growling and barking at our dog , which was only 2 or 3 feet away) . I understand there are dedicated areas for customers with dogs . But the spaces dedicated are very cramped together . Which can be overwhelming even for a well behaved dog. Maybe the dog area inside should be either rearranged or reconsidered in general . Our dog was well behaved , but was becoming anxious when sat next to a smaller dog that wasn't happy with our dog . And we couldn't move anywhere as we were being rushed to eat our food and had to move outside by 7pm. Which I do understand but the attitude of a certain staff member was unacceptable. It was unfortunate after giving the same server multiple chances to redeem herself. However the spread eagle is always an amazing place to go . To eat or to...

Read moreSo disappointed with our carvery experience on Sunday. The beef was dripping in blood, chef refused to carve from the other end or carve a couple of slices to flash in the kitchen for a few moments extra cooking and had every excuse under the sun ‘we always cook them rare’ ‘it’s really hard to know when they’re cooked’ which left me gobsmacked as it showed a real lack of expertise. She then went on to carve the turkey which was also pink with blood streaks throughout. We were all left with stomach cramps for days and I’m sure the turkey was the cause. There was a shortage of pretty much everything. Parsnips were rock solid. Gravy was good but again the pot was nearly empty. There were so many groups of waitresses stood around on the floor, it’s a shame there wasn’t a system whereby they could help top up the carvery. Also timings on the carvery could be better as we were told to wait until they told us to go but then forgot us for half an hour and the carvery was left empty for a while until I asked the waitress if we could go. Then there was a huge queue after us as tables were just going up when they ordered. Supervisor was great and waitresses are friendly enough but on this occasion the food really let the place down. Gutted I couldn’t have the roast beef dinner...
