However, the refurbishment was drastic, gone is all the jingoism and threatening attitude and you can now wait for a train in comfort (there is even a display showing trains arrival and departure times), have breakfast and a decent lunch or dinner. My pie was OK, of the mass catering variety and for this reason I can't really give it more stars, but there is a good atmosphere and a good selection of drinks, so altogether a good place. It shouldn't be too difficult to improve catering standards and for this place to become one of the best pubs around.

It's not a posh place & you will find very down to earth people here. Weekend evenings the music is on & people started dancing before 10pm. The music is mostly pop/R&B/commercial hiphop.

I cannot speak more highly of the Jolly Woodman. I understand that it is under new management…read morewithin the last few months, so any of the old "appalling" reviews should not be taken to heart. In fact, here are three reasons why the Jolly Woodman is a must-stop on your visit to the UK... 1. The staff Most nights our waiter was Oli. He is probably the sweetest kid we've ever met. Very easy to talk too, great recommendations and super accommodating to anything we asked for. On the nights he wasn't working, we genuinely missed him. On the second night we visited, we met the manager, Matt, and he's a truly genuine guy. Matt is the kind of guy who would literally give you the shirt off of his back. You can tell he really loves the restaurant with the stories he tells about the history of it (ask him about the tunnel if you visit!). He gave us a ton of recommendations of places to visit while we were in the UK and they were all spot on. His knowledge of the food and beer is extensive. We looked forward to catching up with him each night that we went in. We also met the head chef, Stuart, on our second night and he's one of a kind. He's also a Michelin star chef, but NBD. This man is passionate about his food, so much so that he brought out samples of what he was working on for us to try and it was all AMAZING. It was a one of a kind experience that you simply wouldn't get here in the states. If you have the chance to visit he Jolly Woodman and try his food - do it. You will not regret it. 2. The atmosphere Look at my pictures. Could this place be any cuter? It's a truly unique location with more history than you can imagine. 3. The food Alright, let's get down to brass tacks. The woodman has HANDS DOWN the best fish and chips I've ever had. The serving is huge, so I recommend fasting before you get there (really). Trust me, it will be worth it. I cannot do it justice writing about it - just go and try it. I also had a cheeseburger and the cheesecake for dessert and they were both spectacular. You cannot go wrong here. They also have a phenomenal beer selection. My recommendation: Sit at the bar, have a chat and a drink with the locals, you won't regret it.

The food is good - slightly pricey for a pub but okay and they serve real ale too.

Well Jimmy how true, I did wish lunch could last forever. The Sun Inn is not only a very comfortable place, it also has great food a great menu and a very responsive staff. I know my comfort as I dine on the ocean, beer and boiled shrimp in hand on almost a daily basis. But, no ocean here, however, the Sun Inn reeked of ambiance and charm. The staff professional and attentive, they made you feel at home. I had the asparagus with cauliflower crumbles, they were good; However, the asparagus were small and stringy. I also had the mussels in saffron sauce, very fresh and very good, not one mussel had turned. My guests had the Dover sole, said it was excellent and the minced beef with cous cous, also excellent. My only let down was the cheese course, kind of anti-climactic and blasé! But, if I lived here I'd live in the Sun Inn a very good place.

A vast menu meant I had loads of choice and it catered to all around the table. The cheddar cheese Soufle I had for my starter was light and airy - it went down a storm. The main course - pie of the week - was also a delight. The gammon and leek within the pie was excellent and topped with mash and some light creamy sauce it was pretty much faultless. Served with a more than generous helping of carrots on the side that were big enough to keep me seeing in the dark for years. Overall it was an excellent meal with excellent service. A must try if you're in the area.

The staff are very friendly in there and greet you with a smile which is nice! Lunch is standard pub fare - baguette, sandwiches, salad, chips etc, but it's in the evening when it really comes into its own. They have a good selection of food, but always have specials as well. The quality of the food is excellent and there is certainly plenty of it. In fact there is probably too much, we sent back so much of the side dishes it was embarrassing last time. It wasn't even stuff we'd ordered, it just arrived with masses of veg, potatoes, salad and chips! All in all one well worth visiting for a cosy evening meal out.
