Having visited the sloop on many many occasions my family snd I have never had a decent meal…read more.. We keep hoping it improves, but we are always dissapointed. We have had countless family occasions and gatherings here, mainly because of it's great interior, history and the stunning environment. However, as an example I decided to take some friends out to dinner here after avoiding the place for 2 years. I had hoped the service snd food would be of higher quality..how wrong I was to have expected a change. I ordered a veggy burger as a change from my usual fish dish, my friends opted for plaice, the angry dog burger and cod & chips. My burger was just a sloppy slushy tepid mess, my chips were even colder. The dishes were slapped onto the table by a grumpy young waitress without any words or a smile, I was appauled at how bad it was and was really embarassed that my friends were experiencing the worse food and service they had ever come across..at one point we all looked at each other and laughed in disbelief because it was just unbeleivably bad! I never ever send food back or complain, but on this occassion I had no choice. I asked the waitress very politely if my chips could be warmed up, without a word she snatched my plate and stormed off..awful. Eventually she flounced back, slapped plate onto table and walked away. I have been a waitress and I would never treat diners, or anyone for that matter, like that. It wasn't busy and there were plenty of staff. My friends dishes were also cold and bland. For the prices and provenance of the sloop you'd expect food, portions and service to match! It's not a one off experience, this type of service, small portion, cold food has happened more than I care to remember and unfortunately myself,my family and friends have decided not to spend a penny more there which is a shame as we live nearby and would love to spend time celebrating family occasions inside it's great interior. I wish I'd never parted with my money on that night, I should have complained to the management, but all of us just wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible. Come on Sloop management, train your staff correctly and keep a very close eye on food before it leaves the pass..basic stuff!

It could be considered to be a little off the beaten track but I think that that is part of the charm. The food is very earthy and honest but with lovely touches and their salads are very special. The menu does not appear to have changed much, but it is still good. the specials board is often our choice however and better vaoue for money. We have noticed on the last 2 occasions that the quantity of food has reduced considerably however probably as a result of the inevitable credit crunch I guess. That is a shame and we have left the cafe feeling hungary...Hoever we still go there when we can and the staff are lovely, very helpful and the service is appropriate.

If I was going to pick one hole, I'd say the chips were a bit flaccid , but that doesn't take much away from this being an excellent place to eat.

I need coffee and cheese on toast, so I shall be brief:…read more The "old" Glen was an amazing pub of which I have many memories from my college years, so I had very high expectations of this place. The pool table area is nice, several tables and fairly spacious. The restaurant area was kinda meh. The food was terrible. Seriously. Me and my partner paid best part of £20 (not including drinks) for a vegetable lasagne and steak and ale pie. The vegetable lasagne was blatently nuked to perfection, and the steak pie was more like minced beef in gravy with a lid on the top. If you want to know what a real vegetarian lasagne or steak and ale pie are like, visit The Friars Vaults and Jolly Boatman respectively. And incidentily, I ordered garlic bread, not garlic bricks. So dry and overdone, I could have chained them together and made myself a lovely yet lethal pair of nunchucks. The staff in the restaurant at least were efficient, and the girl in particular who served us was very nice, but the others were congregating and gossiping which was a tad off-putting. Shame about the food, as due to its location, its food is going to naturally be one of its stronger selling points. However, I'll give it two stars instead of one for the reason that you employ the wonderfully quirky and friendly Christopher Williams. Hell of a lad, he is.

Given that the garden is situated right next to the road it's not exactly relaxing though. What's more impressive about the Glen is the food. The restaurant is situated in a conservatory which has been added as an extension, and feels a lot more upmarket than the rest of the pub. They do an amazing Sunday lunch, and it is always busy so you would definitely be advised to book. The rest of the menu is delicious too, and I have never had a bad meal here. The service can sometime be a bit slow, particularly when they are busy, but the staff always remain pleasant and polite, and are usually apologetic if you have to wait.

Walking through the door you can feel the charisma of the place with a proper village pub feel without the feeling of " are you local" In the winter months the pub has a gorgeous open log file and importantly is warm throughout. The passion for running and keeping a good pub going is evident not only by the cleanliness and the "feel" of the place but the meticulous attention to the level of beer served within. There have been moments where a flat pint has been taken away and re pulled as it wasn't up to standard. For those who like their bitters the range is always changing and the staff are knowledgeable on whats what and can be a fine place to expand your bitter drinking horizons. I cant comment on the smoking area however the games room is just that, nice and functional without that feeling of being tacked on and although out of the way not so much that its segregated to not have some of the vibe come from a good night happening. I've not even mentioned the Indian restaurant out the back which is second to none. So now onto the bad points, the jukebox has that much of a vast selection you'll find that your songs have already played by the time you get to select them all. With the amount of bitters changed it would be nice to see perhaps the same on beers, perhaps a guest lager just now and again. Then again at the time of writing this Carlsberg is only.....2.50 so how can i really be critical of the beer. Yes perhaps a bit touching at straws. Anyways its one of those fine pubs with the traditional warm welcoming atmosphere anytime of the week. Oh and it's the place where the solva beer festival is held as well!

The menu is full of wonderful options for morning coffee, light lunches and afternoon tea and a side table displays a tempting range of baked goodies and as well as a variety of homemade jams and chutneys. Our large, steaming bowls of vegetarian cawl, delicately spiced and chock full of veg, were absolutely delicious. I wouldn't hesitate to go back and, if I lived locally, it would become one of my regular haunts. So why haven't I given them 5 stars? Well, they had a board in the city, advertising the tea room and stating that they offered gluten free soups and bread. As I was travelling with a friend who follows a wheat/dairy free diet, we visited with great anticipation! But the bread (whilst gluten free) contained milk, the cakes (whilst gluten free) contained butter... and there was no soya milk on offer for tea/coffee. With so many people following special diets these days, there really is no excuse for tea rooms, coffee shops, restaurants and pubs not to offer, at the very least, soya milk for a cuppa!
