The Star Inn

We had a group of about 14 people eat here. We pre-booked the table and food and it make it much easier and they printed out peoples selections as well. This made it every easy to handle. The food was brilliant and the service was fast. It has a cosy pub atmosphere, traditional decor and the price was reasonable. Overall a great experience.

Thursday evening and busy. Haven't been here for a while, as no public transport so it's a taxi but, I'm sure we shall return. Good selection from menu plus daily specials board. Food quality excellent with some nice interesting variations, and the prices fair. Three good ales on offer. Wine list limited but once again prices reasonable. Toilets clean and well serviced. Staff welcoming and friendly (especially Alex), service excellent.

Nice pub in a nice quiet village. Popular with locals rather than just tourists which always a good sign.
Menu good and quality of food was as hoped for, the curry was plentiful and great, as was the fish and chips !

Just had a delicious Friday lunch. The pies were proper pies and the creme brulee with shortbread superb. They have only been open since early December and I really wish them well. We will definitely be coming again.

Pub has now opened again and changed hands. Food menu is great, with the expected selection for a country pub, plus a really extensive pie selection which are superb. Steaks are some of the best I've ever had.

Food was exceptional and service was good. The pepsi was the best pump pepsi I've ever tasted and the lemon cheesecake is delicious. But the jewel in the crown is the Roast dinner.... Definitely a winner! The waiting staff were attentive and lovely.

Wow. Amazing staff. Great food. Parking. Country pub. What more can you ask for. Stop searching and go here

Visited for a Birthday Meal on Saturday. Overall, very disappointed on two fronts.

Firstly:

Service. Majority of staff we came into contact with were very young, and/or inexperienced. From having to prompt for glasses to accompany the jug of water, to messing up our drinks order, to dropping a dirty knife on my partners knee - to name a few problems.

Secondly:

Food. For a starter, my partner ordered the Rustic Prawn Cocktail, that claimed to come with 'Malted Bloomer' bread. It came with a slice of what I'd assume was Hovis Medium Sliced White Load. Really made what looked like a great dish, a bit disappointing. Other than that, the Prawn Starter and my Chicken Liver Pate were fine.

Onto the main - we both ordered the 'Leg of Welsh Lamb'. This looked disappointing from the outset, however I will be honest and say that we had misunderstood. The Menu does clearly state that the lamb is 'Boned and Rolled' however, for £18 it was hugely disappointing. We've had Leg of Lamb elsewhere recently, for the exact same price and it was a world apart. Not only was the cut disappointing, but it didn't taste nice either and was arguably overcooked (was barely pink at all). Would have been better suited in a Carvery rather than a Main Dish at £18. The Roasted Potatoes and Seasonal Vegetables were also underdone and quite hard - not the end of the world, and had the lamb been nice I would have happily overlooked.

All in all, we paid just over £50 for the food (excluding drinks) and it felt like such a colossal disappointment for what should have been a nice birthday meal in what is actually a very nice looking, Covid secure venue. Have heard lots of good things about this place, so I'm assuming that we were unlucky. Attaching a photo (albeit a bad one) of the main meal (vegetables in the bag) and 'malted bloomer'.
