Axe Cleaver - Réservation de table

I am genuinely shocked by the amount of favourable reviews for this dated and dirty excuse for a pub. Needs a throrough deep clean, especially the dog hair-matted carpet. The Sunday Lunch consists of three options, which is usually a good sign as it means the kitchen is able to concentrate on perfecting the dishes. Not the case here. The Roast beef was not just well-done, it was more like a congratulations, being so overdone. The Roast Potatoes seemed a few days old and had been reheated; spongy, chewy and tasteless. The whole plate was inedible and those also on the table were unable to finish. A Salmon Ceaser was on offer, which again too was not good. The Salmon used was frozen salmon, an...

Lovely little pub with welcoming hosts. Visited the Axe and Cleaver for an evening meal on our first day in the area. Although on a main route through the county the pub was quiet when we arrived. I imagine more of a pub for locals but getting busier during the holiday season. The food menu had a wide range and was of very good quality. Nice range of beers available. Prices reasonable for the quality. The hosts were very welcoming and polite. The landlady even offered us a lift back to the hotel we were staying at after we mentioned that we had walked to get there (only a mile). A nice touch but declined as we needed to walk off the food and drink. Great pub and well worth seeking out.

We have passed a few times but to be honest it was the Wednesday lunch deal of two courses for £10.95 that pulled us in. What a gastronomic surprise my wife having the roast of the day and enjoying the full works. I went off piste and tried the curry of the day which was one of the best I had ever had in a pub type venue. After a delicious home made pate and relish for starters the syrup sponge and custard was an indulgence not needed as my tummy was full but I couldn’t resist. And it was worth it! Lovely friendly service and the chef is a hidden diamond. We will become regular visitors.

Really lovely home cooked roast. Best Yorkshire pudding I’ve had for awhile. Nothing messed around with. Lovely melt in the mouth topside (I normally like my beef rare which this wasn’t. It had been slow cooked beautifully). Fresh veg. Would have liked the roast potatoes a bit crispier but that is minor in what was a good plate of food. As for dessert we shared the toffee sundae. I won’t be sharing again as it’s too good to share. Icing on the cake they’re dog friendly too. Réservez une table maintenant

Just had a lovely mid-week treat in this welcoming pub. The food was delicious, roast beef with all the trimmings. Staff were very welcoming and the food didn't disappoint, it was cooked and served perfectly. Would highly recommend you try it! Especially the banana boat it looked awesome!

This is a quite old fashioned pub but they keep a good cellar and the food was absolutely fine. Service was punctual and courteous.
