This is the best pub we have been to in years. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, the food was impeccable and our doggy had a lovely snooze after a long day of walking. If you’re visiting the area make sure you book ahead to secure a table at this place for a meal! I had both the specials, poached mussels for starters and crab linguine for main. These were absolutely gorgeous in both flavour and presentation. The portions were very generous with plenty of mussel and crab meat. My husband had the pie of the day and mash (steak and ale) which he rated very highly. We shared a chocolate brownie for pudding which was melt in the mouth decadent. Even the little details like the properly made chocolate sauce and garnishes were spot on! But the whole experience was wrapped together with a nice bow thanks to the cosy atmosphere and the very attentive team who made us feel welcome and valued as customers. The manager was even dishing out dog treats to the four legged customers in the bar area, and this on a busy Saturday dinner sitting. Can’t rate this place highly enough, and will be back for sure next time we’re in the area! Thank you Thimble Inn!

The Thimble Inn is FAN-TAS-TIC. We made a booking for 10. We were taken to our table immediately and all given menus. The food arrived all at the same time for starters, mains and desserts which is fantastic as there were so many of us. The food was exceptional and presented lovely and the waiters were friendly and amazingly helpful. We were asked throughout if we needed top up on drinks and if everything was alright and even when we needed the bill- despite being busy they were fast. Comfortable seating and environment. Lively atmosphere with a very cosy feel. Food fantastic, and service terrific. Thank you for a great evening! 😋

Great little place in the countryside. Not quite a gastro pub, but more a traditional pub food with lots of winter warmers and plenty of food on your plate. The place can get very noisy with even half the tables full so much so it drowns out the background music.

We had a family get together here and thoroughly enjoyed the ambience, great service and tasty food. Would highly recommend. Dog friendly. We had a fantastic time. Fantastic fish, meat and vegetarian options and gluten free friendly.

Busy local pub restaurant. Booking required. Easy online booking. We both had pies. One had the chicken pie which was full of meat. I had the vegetarian veg pie. Very tasty and they didn't make the common mistake of over compensating the flavour with salt and pepper. Good veg. Our own jugs of gravy so could decide how much we wanted, which in our case is a lot. Dessert choice good and good portion size. I couldn't finish my chocolate mousse which is a rare occurrence. My husband mentioned it was our anniversary and we were given some fizz, a nice touch. Served by a pleasant young man. Overall a great experience.
