First impression is of…read morea 'proper' pub that has been redcorated to a very high standard - the kind of place you could have a pint with your mates or bring your maiden aunt for lunch or dinner. The service started befroe we even left - the credit card machine had gone kaput and they phoned ahead to warn us. Once there the atmoshpere was buzzing, warm and friendly - the choice of food was fantastic and I chose the steak and ale pie which was lovely but then I tasted my companion's brisket - divine. Finished off with a lovely apple crumble and custard. Absolutely no doubt we will be back - thoroughly enjoyed it.

New owners - no food now…read more Still excellent for beers though - one of the best pubs around for that. But I'm expecting this place to die on its feet because the food was a big draw and without it, it's just a pub.

Yes there were a few changes but I don't object at all to moving my plate on and off trays if it helps keep both my family and the Tickled Trout team safe. The food was really lovely. I had the beefburger with the pulled pork on top, my husband had the beef and our third party member had the pork. We allm loved the OMG fries and the only regret of the evening was that nobody had room for a pudding. Though in a way that's kind of a blessing as it gives us a great excuse to go back very soon and sample the pudding menu! First rate service, great food and thanks for all you are doing to keep customers safe. Roanna Carleton Taylor

It was my 50th birthday and my partner and I wanted to stay local as work beckoned the next day. We…read morewere doing it "quiet" as a large party is planned for the weekend. We decided on the Peacock Inn as it's been years since we went there and the reviews on here suggested it was ok. Far from it. The decor is tired and drab. The menu tried to offer something different to the normal pub grub, which seemed a bonus as we were happy with standard nosh. My partner chose a vegitarian Lasagne and I went for the Rabbit Pie. The Lasagne looked like a road accident and my Rabbit pie was suspiciously full of steak! As I was eating it, the Rabbit pie was crossed off the menu which gave me a sneaking a suspicion that they had already run out and presented me with something else. Either way, the base crust was rock hard and burnt to black in some areas. After we sat and chatted for a good 20 minutes, staring at the left-overs and dirty pots. Noone came to collect these, ask us if we wanted a sweet or even a coffee, I believe they may have been worried about facing a few awkward questions. Apart from 4 other people, we were the only people in the pub, but were strangely left to ourselves. On leaving, there were no bar staff to bit farewell to. A very strange event which will not be repeated.

We sat outside in the sunshine and enjoyed a lovely meal. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his steak and I had the Lasagne which was yummy. Oh and the chips, well, they were something else. Homemade and absolutely gorgeous. I think it was the landlady behind the bar, and she was lovely, very helpful. It's a lovely country pub and very reasonably priced. If you're looking for city centre gastro pub then it's not for you, but if you're after a homely atmosphere with good food in the middle of lovely countryside, then you should definitely pop along. We will definitely go back again.
