As always, wonderful food and great service

We have had a lovely lunch with local friends. The food was very good, we have enjoyed the Specials of the Day, beautiful fish pie, excellent Moroccan tuna. All very reasonably priced. Service was prompt, profesionnal and friendly. We will definetely return.

Staff are great, requests for seating always done. Great service. Just love the place!

Superb meal and friendly staff and atmosphere. Love the fire… Thankyou for making my dad and ourselves very welcomed. Nothing is any trouble to help out with.

great pub food, good portions, well cooked, so friendly staff. Felt very welcome.

Really disappointed which is a shame as brought a few friends this time. After I told them my visit earlier in the year was great. The first 45 minutes of service wasn't too bad but the food options were duplicated several times or unavailable and not labelled, the food we did have was barely warm! We were told we had 90 minutes at our table but just before 60 minutes were up we were ushered to go and get dessert..what dessert? Barely any left..nothing labelled and with 1 vegetarian and another person with a nut allergy in our group this wasn't OK! Staff were barely to be seen, apart from when we went to get a crepe to be told sorry! The price we paid for the food and service we received was not acceptable and we all left feeling disappointed after an end to a great day! We couldn't speak to anyone on the way out about our visit because they were all at the back of the room eating!! Quite ironic really. Really dislike to write a bad review, but unfortunately this time it is definitely needed.

Great food, a great venue, a great band and friendly and welcoming staff and customers. What more could you ask for?

A Sunday lunchtime Birthday meal that was everything we could have hoped for. Great beers, nice food, superb service so what more could you ask for. The smallest of negativity was that the plates were cold so the food cooled down quickly but thats a minor and easy thing to sort. We will return for a Roast again.

Absolutely first class meal! Top quality produce. Staff very friendly and helpful!

Lovely attentive staff . Lovely atmosphere. Starter lovely and ample for 4 mains were was a different matter. Hard fish, soggy chips peas that had dried up on the heater. And the pie was not nice. And it’s on the expensive side . Sorry but we won’t be returning.

Fan Dabi Dozi, Great vibes at this English Tavern! Nostalgia all around, just before the start of the Christmas season, Very considerate staff towards my son who has allergies, They gave us great seats too, Our pup Brutus was super impressed as well. Super starters! Salt and pepper squid Grilled artichokes Nachos with Chilli, jalapenos and Cheese. Massive Mains! Steaks, Fish and Chips, Burgers, Pizzas All so delectable. Super value for money when going out!

Food was delicious and great price .

The vegan roast was one of the best I've ever had. Friendly staff and a great place all round.

It was, as always a great lunch and staff. However, our waitress did not know what a sherry was or that a ginger beer did not come as a half pint or a pint. She was absolutely charming, but needed to seek help. Also when I got my sherry it was served in a tumbler! I politely asked her to transfer it to a sherry glass which she did.

A great evening on 22nd Nov with a group of 4. The friendliness and help from staff was outstanding! Lovely, caring people. Even the punters were friendly, making a great atmosphere. The Devil's Damned String Band played excellent Bluegrass - brilliant musicians. As a real ale fan I found the beer choice very good. The food was good value pub grub.

We went for a Sunday carvery. As usual 4 meats to choose from and a good choice of vegetables. All lovely and hot. Very friendly staff who are always on the go. A lovely pub to visit, would definitely recommend.

We went for Sunday lunch and had booked a table. The pub was extremely busy but served quickly at the bar. The carvery was excellent, 4 meats to choose from and a good selection of vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and roast potatoes. Food was hot and fresh, we are going to try a wseekday lunch next.

We had a fabulous time at the Master Builder on 15/11. Food was lovely & good portions. We had the Christmas Party menu for 6 of us. It was all easy to book online & the staff were very helpful. When we arrived the table was decorated very festive & we had everything we needed. Prawn cocktail was delicious. Turkey Dinner & mushroom Wellington were lovely. The vegetables were cooked soft & not hard, the roast potatoes were crispy but fluffy on inside. We couldn’t fault it, everything was perfect with a Christmas party atmosphere. We felt very well looked after. Can’t fault it.
