Great steak cooked to perfection. To be fair were a bit of a pain changing things last minute but the staff were brilliant in accommodating us. Will for sure come back again.

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch The staff were very helpful and looked after us very well. Will definitely be back x

Nice place , staff good and friendly , the wait for food was too long for me ,,about an hour . Will try again just in case it was a staffing issue for the wait, if same thing again we will go somewhere else for £75 for 3 of us that will be a lot quicker , we are local and would prefer stay local , but for price I want quicker , lots of other pubs cheaper and quicker within 10 min drive ,so we will see next time ,drinks service is fast as table service keeps the bar free

Came for Sunday lunch with friends, after reading reviews. The food did not disappoint and we found it all reasonable. Service was good. We ate in a lovely conservatory, which was a bit noisy when another party joined. Whole venue was busy with a nice atmosphere. If we were in the area , we would happily come back to enjoy their fare. Thank you

Lovely place to eat food excellent and friendly quick service

I booked a table for six in the conservatory to celebrate my wife’s birthday. We found that it was quite noisy, so the staff were excellent in finding us another table, which was very nice. We all found the food top class, and will be back again. Thanks again for the very attentive staff.

Where do I start The bar lady, didn’t know what a lemon and lime was and when we asked for two glasses of Chardonnay. She came back and asked if the was a lemonade shandy. The menus was poor, with very little choice and not to have salad amazed us. The food took 1 hour to arrive and we was the only 6 people in there. When the food did arrive. The fish was over cooked and dried up and the chips were well over cooked and full of old fat and were totally un edible. The steak however was good, despite it arriving on an old oven tray and so was the chicken. We complained to the staff, but it went on deaf ears. Not one place, I will be returning too.

Really nice pub - good food and friendly service.

Good service, good food, nice chilled atmosphere

Friday's lunchtime visit was our first to the Queens Head. We met up with friends from Worcestershire. All four of us were impressed by the prompt and friendly service, but especially the food. We couldn't fault anything.

Absolutely amazing food been here a few times now service and food spot on always definitely recommend

Superb Sunday lunch, great value for money and very very tasty. Staff are very efficient and friendly too, will be going back again and would highly recommend - however the amount of customers arriving for Borge lunch and drinks speaks for itself,

Came here twice in one week! The food was that good!! The chicken burger and beef brisket are incredible and the halloumi starter is fantastic! The staff are really lovely too.

We come here regularly as a family, and with friends after mountain biking. The food and service is always amazing. Dog-friendly, the kids love it and has a really cosy, friendly atmosphere. Maybe some music playing would add to the atmosphere..? Would happily eat Sunday roast here every week.

Lovely site close to the canal with a comfortable conservatory. Excellent menu all food well cooked and fresh. Also all the staff were great and helped make the meal with our friends so special.

My hubby and i have dined at the Water Rat several times and we like it very much. It has a good calm atmosphere, good service from friendly and attentive staff and good food. We tend to choose from the childrens menu as currently cannot eat full adult portion meals but the childrens meals are really very good .

Unfortunately, we left extremely disappointed. Just a series of little niggles that could be avoided but when you add them up it just creates a poor experience. No wine list, was told they simply have red, white or rose but no explanation of what they are. When asking, the waitress was a little rude and said “I don’t know”. That set the tone as I think she thought we were being awkward so we were met with rudeness for the rest of the evening. Food very average and the wrong side was sent out with my meal.. No one came to check if everything was ok. My husband asked for some mustard which was forgotten about so had to ask twice. Finished plates sat there ages before being taken away however, the waitress proceeded to clean and re-lay an empty table next to us then walked away. No desert menus were offered at all, we sat waiting for a while and decided to leave. Shame as we are local, but definitely won’t be returning.
