Excellent food served in a charming inn. Food portions huge, make sure you visit with a hearty appetite

We ordered 4 Roasts on the 1st January 2025. A bit disappointed on the meat portions served.

We visited twice during our short break. First visit, I had to return my meal, there was a hair on my food, I had the steak & ale pie, my husband had steak. My meal was replaced but it took a while, which sadly tarnished our evening. However, we did receive an apology Second visit, no staff serving except one guy, ? Manager, very rushed off his feet as he had to serve drinks, take food orders and serve food at tables. On saying this, we didn't wait long for our table or food. We both had fish & chips which was delicious. Pun itself was nice and cozy. Would definitely return.

Good food, great service, lovely atmosphere. Thankyou

We have been to the Wheatsheaf a few times now , it never disappoints. The food is great, staff are very friendly. We always have a good time when we visit.

Good venue, large table, great for conversation. Service excellent and food good. We had a lovely evening with old friends - thank you.

Food was appalling

Always receive a warm and friendly welcome. Service is very efficient and food quality is always well above standard pub fair. Highly recommended

Sorry. Am a good cook myself. My chicken was reasonable. The belly pork meal pretty awful. Staff did their best. Very pushed due to lack of help. Didnt think the quality merited the price paid. As an aside. The broccoli wasnt cooked at all and couldnt cut it. No offence to anyone. They were busy and pleasant.

I had cod fish and found it to be overcooked and dry. We were also put in the conservatory part of the restaurant which both my husband and I felt there was no atmosphere and rather chilly. In other words we were ‘out on a limb’ with service rather slow.

Thought we would give a try after seeing new menu on Facebook and we were not disappointed.The best menu I’ve seen around for ages.Everything we had was lovely and we were well looked after by I presume the manageress. Will definitely recommend and be back.

5 star!

Excellent menu and food was first class. Friendly service both at dinner and breakfast.

Food was as you might expect: decent, tasty, no complaints, but nothing exceptional. Staff weren't as attentive as they might have been however - we had to wait a good 15-20 minutes for our table to be ready and we didn't get a hint of an apology, and when we first entered it took a fair while for anyone to look up from the bar and acknowledge us. Throughout the evening they became a bit friendlier, and it wouldn't have been enough to put me off returning, but it wasn't the best way to start an evening.

The pub is in a beautiful location, off the beaten track but easy to find. The room was very clean and pleasant, and the service/staff unfussy and efficient. Great menu, great food. Good atmosphere, good breakfast, and overall pretty good value for money. Easy parking and everyone was helpful.

Have visited the pub on many occasions so it was great to see the addition of specials to the menu, giving us more choice . The lamb shank was delicious and our friend enjoyed the pork chop Very welcoming and friendly staff Looking forward to our next visit

Nice relaxed atmosphere and good pub food. I especially enjoyed the very dark meaty gravy on my pie, and had some very tasty "Dizzy blonde" beer. Our dog was welcomed and the staff were warm and helpful.
