Saturday evening meal with friends. First time ever for all 4 of us. This turned out to be a very good dinning experience. From the decor to the food and drink. All excellent. Staff extremely pleasant and obliging. I had the amazing fish platter basket, this contained a plentiful selection of cod prawn and salmon. They never rushed us after the meal to vacate the table. Its a place we shall all return to.
A very warm welcome a beautiful traditional pub. Very friendly staff. The waitress a breath of fresh air. And the food was traditional good cooked and presented lovely a set menu is available at a very good price. We had soup pates fish, and my husband hasn't stopped talking about his pie, and braising steak and home made desserts apple crumble and steamed puddings, absolutely beautiful. Highly recommended. Can't wait to return. Thank you
A little gem right on our doorstep. Had the steak and ale pie first visit, vegetable lasagne on my second. Good home cooked food, very friendly staff and well worth the money,
Came and played with the brass band at Christmas . Was made nice and welcome and pleasant to sit with the fire lit and play a few carols and relax. Changed owners since I was last there but nice to see food is still been served here . Thank you
The food was nice, it's very dated but I think that's meant to be part of the appeal? I have the say though the staff were very very friendly. It's a pleasant place though worth visiting for Sunday lunch.
Never stayed but, I love this place great pub amazing food with even better staff I say staff loosely as they treat you more like family
Food here is incredible. My favourite place to dine. Lovely people too. Very friendly, homely place. Good value too.
Warm and friendly traditional Pub with a Fantastic beer garden at the rear, and decent choice of beers available. Didn't eat so cannot comment on the food available.
Had a family meal at the Travellers on Fri. What an excellent meal. There were 6 of us who thoroughly enjoyed 2 courses for a ridiculously inexpensive price. The food was home cooked tasty and well presented and cheerfully served. Well done and thanks to everyone concerned.
This review is of the restaurant, not the stay over facilities of the inn. Went here at lunchtime for a meal with friends - not busy when we arrived, but got busier while we were there - but this did not cause any issues. Good choice on the menu with discounted offers - two courses for £9.95. Food was very nice though the chips looked overcooked. Good choice of desserts and generous sized portions. Well worth a visit.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
