The Beech Tree Hotel

Good pub, has a pool and snooker table and dart board. Great beer. Clean building

Best fish and chips in the area.
Always excellent

Absolutely awful. We were a family of 10 who had booked for Christmas day to be told on arrival that our table wasn't ready. Then told we can't keep places we have to take whoever comes in although we had paid a £120 deposit.The way I was spoken to was shocking and my children were discussed. The lady/person running the place had no manners and appeared drunk serving us.the premises were filthy dirty floors were slippery and the toilets were flooded. I wish I had an opportunity to thank the chef though as if the place had any proper management the food would be lovely. We will never step foot inside the place again

Nice food, awful service and attitude from the floor staff and overall it brought down the atmosphere. The negative effects of the surrounding environment really didn’t make it family friendly or just anything of entertaining. We booked a table in advance only to see that it was taken.

Once again, the food was great but the fact we had to put 2 orders of 5 servings when they could have taken our order in just one go really did prove sloppy craftsmanship in catering.

The toilets were just as sad looking as the staff, toilet paper strewn everywhere wherever you turned, it looked genuinely depressing. My grandmother and grandfather nearly fell a few times due to the consistent flooding and soggy paper whilst my 10 year old cousin slipped TWICE.

Anything you eat here is met with poor plating and presentation when given to the customers. The staff were just as disgusting as the toilets. Anything you rate the beech inn from one star to a five, it’ll be nothing short of a miracle.

Unfortunately it wasn't great. Most of the lights were off, just a couple over the bar area. The rest of the pub was in near darkness. I can understand that the costs of running a pub must be high af present, but I heard a staff member say they were freezing! With a group of people all huddled together in their coats, the yelling over the music was too much. I couldn't stay there all evening as originally planned. Hoping things will improve in the new year.

First time at the beech tree and the meals were disgusting and unhygienic. Some meals didn't even arrive at the table and the staff were disrespectful and unhygienic with the cutlery. Family's were separated from one another due to the staff letting people sit on there booked seats. Booked a full table of 10 people and they told us they had let people sit on our table even though we had booked that table in advance. One member of staff was shouting and causing a scene for no reason when we asked for drinks and were our table was as someone was sitting in our booked seats. Would not recommend at all!!

Fab Sunday lunch, three courses £12.95. It was lovely 😊 beef was amazing.
There's a little play area round the side for kids, and my boy had a colouring book to keep him entertained.

Both myself and my sister's family decided to do Christmas a little different this year and go out for our dinner, we chose the Beech Tree given it was local, we have never heard of any bad reviews and if we wanted we could all walk there and back. We called and reserved the table.

We later found out the chef had left but this wouldn't be an issue but would be amending the menu and getting this out to us. We eventually got a menu but there were errors in it. After my sister speaking to the Chef, she was reassured everything would be OK. Not even the Land lady was able to reassure us, giving that everything we knew to date was because we chased for this information. Her exact words were "I'm the owner, well me and my husband so if you have any problems you can speak to him"!

Against our better judgement we didn't cancel, we turned up at 12:30 Christmas day, ready to be seated, just to stand at the bar for 20 minutes and then watch the waitress dress a table!! My husband asked the bar lady, why are we waiting? We have reservation and she shrugged her shoulders and walked off. We eventually managed to get seated, by this time were all annoyed at the wait. The main course was amazing, I can't deny that, everything else was just OK. The plates were left on the tables for far too long, I think main course was left there for over 30 mins after we we're done.

All in all our experience has been awful from start to finish, we paid over £300 to spend our Christmas day there, you would have got a better service for far less anywhere else. Will absolutely most definitely not be returning.
