Excellent service from the Bartender Part from that,utterly poor customer service from staff serving the food
Hair found on fish and chips and no apology received from the Manager
Treated this very casually. Disgraceful
Staff busy catering for their own personal dog and children. I would not recommend this place for food or service
Pub needs to keep up with the competitors

Excellent food, freshly prepared and plenty in each option. Roasts were really tasty and I had one of the nicest salads I've had in a long time. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend it for any gatherings.

We had an excellent dinner at The Three Compasses early in in the week. The staff were excellent - being attentive at all the right times: quite an art! I spent quite a few hours there celebrating with some colleagues. We started on nibbles and ended with tasty dessert: each course was generous, tasty and cooked to perfection.

Thank you to the team there. It was not my first time, and it certainly won’t be the last!

Lovely gastropub a little off the beaten track.
Food prepared with flair and great presentation.

Great meal - good wine and beer selection.

I would pass on the “pate” it’s really just liverwurst.

Otherwise the meat pie was delicious and my friend had Nutella donuts that I tried and enjoyed as well.

A good place for great food, even if the location is a bit out of the way and in the suburbs.

First time I'd been here for a couple of years and booked for the lunchtime sunday roast.

We first chose the foccia bread with cheese as a starter which was pleasant enough, but once you'd eaten the cheese grated on top (which there wasn't much of), it was very very dry. It could have done with a tomato dip to accompany it really. The halloumi starter with the spicy sauce was a much better choice 👍👎

For mains we both had the roast beef which was £19 per head so I was expecting a bit of 'wow' but it wasn't really there. It was all nicely presented and hot, but it just lacked extra flavour whether in the gravy or the roast potatoes. Could have also been a bit more generous with the beef (I had 3 slices). Bit of a shame. 👍👎

I had the lemon cheesecake for dessert which was beautifully presented and tasted lovely. My friend had the crumble, but the apple and fig combination was so sweet (and I have a very sweet tooth!) with the icing sugar coating, one spoonful was enough. 🤯🤯🤯

Staff were attentive and helpful and they have good COVID procedures and signage in place.

Always busy here, so booking is a must. Lovely food £££. The staff were only too pleased to help and found us a table with no waiting time at 3pm on a Sunday. They ran out of roasts but half expected it as we didn't book.
