Disappointing food and general experience despite pub looking good inside. Started of prawns & soup good, mains: cauliflower cheese arrived 5 mins before mains, my xmas dinner came cold. Only removed my plate leaving my partners resulting in eating at different times. Then as we finished our drinks, clear that the 2 staff wanted to go home, looking over constantly & gingling keys, turning music off…..it was 9pm. I do t think we’ll be back Was good place pre Covid

Had our Sunday Lunch at the Apple Inn, Lucker on December 5th, 2021. Absolutely beautiful. Delicious main courses and beautiful desserts. Thoroughly recommend.

We stayed in Lucker for a week in November and used the Apple Inn most days while we were there. The first thing I would like to say is the friendliness of the staff that work there. They were so helpful and attentive and we felt very welcome. Also dog friendly with nice areas to sit for a drink with the pooch. We ate there on one occasion. And the food was very good quality well presented and the service was excellent. Looking forward to returning soon.

Lovely dog friendly pub. Food good, hot and plentiful. One of the waitresses (the one with a son who worked there for 4 years)was brilliant, very friendly and nothing too much trouble. The pub looked lovely and festive but could have done with some music.

Lovely dog friendly pub, good menu tasty food. Friendly and very helpful staff. All working very hard even though storm Arwen was raging outside. Our friends dog became ill while we were there and the staff had no qualms about packing their food up to take away. Thank you Apple Inn

Really lovely pub restaurant. Great food and excellent service

Excellent Food, Excellent Service

On arrival our initial impression was good, warm cosy looking establishment, with a friendly welcome from the gent behind the bar. We were shown to our table which was in a lovely rear room very comfortable, but there the good stops. When the waitress came to take our order her attitude was poor, as though we were a nuisance to her and she’d rather be elsewhere. When asked what drinks where available, the response was “everything is on the menu” strange that when we asked about the flavour of a soft drink we were quoted a flavour not mentioned on the menu, so much for everything’s on the menu. We then proceeded to order 6 adults meals, 1 being a vegetarian meal, plus 2 kids meals. When the meals came they looked great we’ll presented but the vegetarian option was missing, we queried the missing meal to be told that it’s was on the side and would be right out. 13 minutes later the missing meal turned up obviously it wasn’t on the side and had just be done. Another negative point was my meal was cold, when mentioned to our happy waitress it was meet with “oh sorry” that’s it. Such a shame as the place looks great and the food was well presented, but let done by poor waiting staff.

Excellent food, better than expected for a pub meal, although quite slow to arrive on our second visit. Only on our second visit was it mentioned that as we were in the HPB Lucker Hall in the village we could have a discount, so we missed out on our first meal

Great pub with lovely staff and super food. We received a warm welcome and were seated in a lovely booth which was perfect for our party of five and our two dogs. It’s been a while since we last visited but we’ll be back soon.

Fab place, great ambience, a warm welcome, lovely food, children very welcome and dog friendly. We had breakfast there on the last day of our holiday, it was great and we will be back.

We really enjoyed our meal at the Apple, excellent service, fab food all presented in smart clean and welcoming surroundings. Well done "Team Apple"

What a well run place, with friendly staff, good food and lovely local beer. We ate here twice as we liked it so much.

We were a party of 10 and ate spread across the menu. Everything arrived promptly and excellently cooked. From cheese soufflés to fish and chips to pies to steaks everything was spot on. The only thing you might do is have smaller portions as no-one could fit in a dessert.

Came for a Sunday lunch this week. Staff were friendly and attentive and we were served very promptly. The food was delicious and I’d say that the shoulder of lamb was some of best I’ve ever had. The restaurant was spotless, warm and comfortable and we had a lovely relaxing time over our lunch rather reminiscent of a Sunday lunch at home.

Enjoyed dinner here on the last night of our holiday at HPB Lucker. Excellent food - really amazing - and friendly efficient service. Only one tiny suggestion - the lighting where we were sat was quite bright and harsh - soften that, maybe add some candles, and this place would be faultless.

We couldn’t fault our evening at The Apple Inn on Saturday . Warm welcome , friendly service. we both enjoyed our chosen meals .Even to the extent that we chose a dessert!!

Saturday dinner with 2 friends in a warm, welcoming, tidy pub we found something on the menu that we all liked. Good food well served using fresh ingredients. Passionfruit and mango cheesecake to die for.
