I’m a repeat visitor to Grumpy’s - I love the warm welcome and their extensive GF menu. The food is always fresh and delicious!

Fabulous breakfast again. Service was impeccable and it’s always a pleasure to go. Absolutely love this place.

Absolutely brilliant food and superb service from George. Loved the music, inner decor and the food and drink menus were diverse and broad. Will definitely go again

Lovely lunch. Service great. Food was hot, fresh and tasty, service quick, helpful and friendly. Would recommend wholeheartedly to anyone, vegan or otherwise. Definitely book though because it's tiny. Best vegan meal out for years.

Fantastic food and service, enjoyed a great family meal will definitely be returning :)

The was food was ok I was not told about the 10% off for teacher as 3 of our party was the noise was so loud we couldn’t have a chat

Excellent service and great food. Good value.

Vegan Food is METALLLLLZ! Took a trip to Stoked over the weekend , I’ve seen them popping up over my Insta for the last couple of months and when I saw they were hosting a metal night it was a no brainier! We were greeted by a treasure trove of quirky memorabilia , the smell of woodsmoke , candle lit tables and rockin friendly staff .. not to mention badass tunes. We went for : Limited Edition Ghost Wings - made from oyster mushrooms coated in the crispiest batter and a hellishly hot sauce , these were SO good , I couldn’t stop ,even though I was seeing double! Hattie B’s Fried “Chicken” - the texture on these buttermilk Seitan tenders was phenomenal and I don’t know what wizard created the Sweet Nashville Hot Oil but it was amazing , crispy Cajun fries and pickles. Mac & Cheese - no explanation needed , Creamy and delicious , not to mention the crispy topping! Also an honourable mention the the themed cocktail list (there were tonnes more cocktails too) and selection of beers including masses of USA rarities. Can’t wait to try some of the other offerings including the new pizzas and someone said “steak” night with Tiramisu! Don’t threaten me with a good time .. Thankyou team Stoked see you very soon!

Always a good time at Stoked - with incredible food and beer, top class service and chill vibes what more could you want!?

Had breakfast on Friday lovely and warm as it was hailstones and high winds outside, staff always very friendly and food always good.

Excellent food. Lovely service and relaxed nice atmosphere . Highly recommended .

Great food and great service.

Lovely lunch with a friend, good atmosphere, efficient friendly service and delicious food. As always.

Really lovely!

Brilliant breakfast as always

At the Barn you always get friendly service and a lovely choice on the menu. I had the salmon sandwich which was delicious. The only draw back is they will only accept card as payment.

We are regular customers of the Blue Anchor but this is the first time we had booked for the Steak Night. We arranged to go with our friends. We were not disappointed! The steaks were superb as was all of the other food we ate. Staff are also very attentive and friendly.
