    We were attentively waited on. Food was extremely good. We had Sunday lunch. The only downside was the roast potatoes were the frozen kind. However the homemade yorkshire puddings made up for this. I would definitely recommend the apple and raspberry crumble. This was delicious. Staff were very welcoming and waited on our every need. Will definitely be returning

    Booked for Sunday dinner while in the area, food was outstanding, I am quite picky with dinners out and this was the best I have had in a long time. Dessert of crumble and custard was the best. Would make the 45 minute journey for dinner again without a doubt!

    We visited the pub for Sunday lunch after recommendations from a colleague - we were not disappointed! Service from the start was welcoming and friendly, food was served quickly but it was all freshly made to order and was outstanding. Roast potatoes were divine and my daughter, who is incredibly fussy, said it was the best Sunday dinner she’d had! We’ll be back soon to try the weekday menu as well.

    We booked for a family meal whilst on holiday in the area, based on reviews online. Unfortunately there was very little ambience in the Plough, and the service was very slow. When the food came it was reasonable enough in quality but nothing special, and some of it was overdone. It was chain pub standard food, and not as good as some. We felt the food and experience were poor value for money, and we will choose somewhere else if we are in the area again.
