We found a nice table outside in the dining area, attempted to order food and were told that the garden had been closed for food (at around 18:10?) and that we must go inside to eat even whilst the weather was so good.
We attempted to go upstairs into the dining area to be told that the dining area was full and that we must sit in the bar area, we found a table and ordered at the bar.
I ordered the 12oz Rump Steak special, advertised on all the table toppers with a beer and a sprite, £25ish, I was offered no receipt and a queue was forming due to the sluggish nature of the service.
My food arrived (pictured) the steak was ordered medium rare and came well done. I was missing the Mac and cheese that came with the meal as they had sold out and had to highlight this to a server who didn't know what to do.
For the bar staff, kitchen and the food server not to know what comes with the meal or not to highlight it to me was cheeky. I was brought onion rings by way of apology.
Overall, the pub feels mismanaged. The bar staff didn't know the till system, bar staff stick to only their station/responsibilities and the place seemed overrun with glasses.
Oh and also, bring cutlery with the meals. It Wetherspoons and all the other chains can do it then it makes you look lazy.
I usually have trouble eating out due to food allergies, this place has a great gluten free menu and the chef even adapted the meal for my dairy intolerance.
Could not praise the moorhen enough.
Lovely location by the river, would imagine it will be really busy in warmer months.
The day we went the place was really quiet.
Food was pub food ,nice but nothing special. Service was good.
I would go again when warmer I think it would be nice sitting outside watching the world go by .
