😌 It was the best of times, it was the wor.. 😅 well, let me explain. Clearly giving 4 stars means that I think you should definitely come here but there are caveats! The atmosphere was warm and inviting as were the staff. In fact the staff were great, very friendly! The mains were terrific, I went for steak and chips 🥩🍟 and those with me said the pies were amazing, so all good there too. Now, those who follow my reviews will be aware I love dessert 🍰, it's my favourite part of the meal and unfortunately, regrettably, this is where things went very wrong. The sticky toffee pudding wasn't sticky as such (I had to scoop the toffee from around the sponge and pour it over), the apple in the apple crumble had a weird taste I really can't describe well and the crumble was grainy and not crumbly (or toasted for that matter). It the final issue was the custard. It was simultaneously thin and lumpy. Most of us didn't get through more than two spoons. Had it not been for this, it would be an easy 5 Stars ✨. In summary, go, enjoy the great mains but I'd skip dessert.

After visiting a few times for dinner and enjoying the delicious food, we decided to hold our wedding reception at the Lordship in October. The food is always top notch and the staff are really helpful and friendly. The Lordship has a lovely atmosphere and everyone was so helpful when we were planning our big day. We had so many guests contact us after the wedding to say how much they enjoyed the food & the venue. Would highly recommend!

The natural light flooding into the space from the ceiling is AMAZING! The space is intimate and rustic, and the food and service was great! The pub already has really nice decorations and is kept really clean so even without a lot of decorations the space looks complete and ambient. I really recommend this place for wedding reception!

My wife and I had our wedding reception here just before Christmas 2024. Andrew, Chris and all the staff could not have been more helpful when it came to planning everything. We had 110 guests for a seated lunch, and every single one of them said the food and service were absolutely outstanding. We couldn’t have asked for a better party venue and would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a cosy and atmospheric setting for any type of event.
