Booked for Sunday lunch for 4 and at the last minute that changed to 7 and a toddler. Staff were very accommodating to move things around for us all to fit in the food was delicious and such generous portions will definitely be back.

Absolutely superb Sunday lunch. Best I’ve had. Fabulous service

Fabulous food, service and great portion sizes. First time we've been but will definitely be back. Lovely waitress aswell but didn't get her name. Highly recommend.

Had a lovely meal yesterday me & my other half , the staff were very warm and welcoming and friendly . The food was amazing . My other half and I really enjoyed our meals. We will definitely be back again

Very friendly and helpful staff, my Mam is currently using walking sticks after a fall and they helped us to our seat and to the exit. Food was beautiful biggest piece of corned beef pie Ive ever had and the chips and gravy so tasty. We will be back x

Visited yesterday with quite high expectations thanks to some great facebook adverts. The service was fantastic, we were seated straight away, drinks were excellent quality but to be honest the food absolutely stole the show. The best dining out experience we have had as a family for many years, will be visiting again and again.

After visiting The Beehive a number of times over the years, I was very disappointed with my last visit. Starting with the waitress who merely pointed to our table and then disappeared for around ten minutes, not even asking if we would like a drink. Furthermore the one thing my family look forward too is the specials, which we follow via FB. However, when the waitress did finally arrive back at our table and we were able to ask her questions (and requested to order drinks), she told us that this was a new menu and that the burger which had been advertised that sane day was mo longer part of the menu as off the previous day. We left after paying for drinks. Felt very disappointed with not only poor service, which was unusually for The Beehive, but also the false advertising.

Lovely food and service! Me and my friends have been meeting up at the Beehive for about 3 years now and the food and service has always been fantastic! And it’s keeps us coming back again and again!

Made a booking easy, called to clarify we would be bringing a baby and the staff were more than accomodating. The owners and staff were woth us and the baby. Offering help advice a d going out fo their way to help with anything.. The food was great too just a shame baby made it difficult to have it whilst hot.

Where do I start . From the second we walked to leaving, everything was perfect. Food was out of this world. Portion size and prices were spot on too.. All staff that waited on us were brilliant but a lady called Michelle stood out a mile.. ger service was the best. Would highly recommend

Food was excellent, a lovely pub with great beer and staff were attentive and pleasant. Definitely coming back.

Second visit in 2 weeks, first for a Sunday lunch & was so impressed with the quality of the food & the service the staff gave that we returned the week later on the Thursday evening with friends & once again the food was fantastic as well as the staff who couldn’t do enough for us. Highly recommend & look forward to returning again soon.

It was fantastic the food was unbelievable and the service first class It was recommended to us and I would do the same for anyone

Lovely meal as always. New table layouts are much better great atmosphere. Food was tasty and huge portions. Kids had dessert and both cheesecakes looked amazing love coming here

Back again. Never anything bad to say about The Beehive. Try it for yourself you won't regret it.

Unfortunately our visit definitely wasn’t the best we’ve had. We had a vegetarian eating with us and it took a while to realise there was a separate menu and then the first 3 things he asked for wasn’t on that night. They didn’t have potato skins, spinach or noodles. It really felt like the food was pre made and not fresh which is disappointing. There were no hot drinks on and no vege special on the menu. The bill for 3 of us for main and 2 desserts was £84. To me that’s a bit pricey for average food (at best) . I’m sure it was just an off night as we have had lovely food here before.

Heard loads of positive comments regarding the food and it didn’t disappoint, great value for money as well as being delicious and the staff are so friendly. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. I would definitely go back to try everything that’s on their menu.
