Went to a private function here on a Saturday night. Wasn't too busy, seemed to have a nice relaxed atmosphere. Staff friendly and attentive. Good drinks selection across the board and the buffet style food was delicious. My ideal type of pub!

We had a superb stay at the Princess Royal on New Years' Eve, which was booked last minute so we could attend a party nearby. The check-in was seamless, the room clean, luxurious, and peaceful, and the breakfast the next morning delicious and generous.

Family get together for Sunday lunch. 3 roast lamb and a duo. Food was lovely, really nicely flavoured and good portion size. We ordered 2 sides - pigs in blankets and cauliflower cheese which was delicious. Warm brownie, sticky toffee pudding and ice cream for dessert. Mulled wine very much enjoyed. Service was great, polite friendly and welcoming. Very enjoyable experience.

The room was very clean and tidy, plenty of hot water and the staff were very helpful and friendly especially Joe and Tom! Breakfasts were very good with a wide choice thank you. We would definitely stay again 😊

I recently visited the Princess Royal Hogs Back pub for a Christmas lunch, and it was absolutely delightful! The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of festive flavors—truly a perfect start to the holiday season. Lovely atmosphere for a Wednesday afternoon and friendly service made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be back for more!
