My first visit to this place and I was sooo disappointed. The place is lovely, the staff tried to…read morebe helpful but my food was very very disappointing. As a vegetarian there was an extremely limited choice. Two starters (both pastry) I chose a mediterranean veg pasty. this was very bland (forgot seasoning?) also very soggy with a great handful of green leaves and a watery spoonful of tomato sauce (it may have been just sieved tomatoes as there was no taste to it). for the main I had the other starter which was a goats cheese and caramelised onion tart, again with a handful of lollo rosso this time which is very bitter. (This tart was also very soggy) The veg (expensive extra charge) was very poor and the servings tiny. Never mind I thought the puddings might be better. No - a rock hard slice of cold treacle tart with ice cream. Sorry I won't go back. I don't mind the cost but expected the food to be good. The chef had offered to do a mushroom rissotto but as this takes a long time to cook and requires one to one attention I suspected it may not be fresh. Can anybody tell me of a restaurant that serves both non-veg (for husband) and interesting vegetarian for me.

I heartily recommend this establishment, you will enjoy it.

I went on my birthday with my family last year and despite there being 18 of us, we were served quite quickly and the food was delicious.

A wonderful English pub nestled in a beautiful location, the decor is traditional pub but with modern upgrades to the bar, but its the food that's the real winner here. Specials listed on chalkboards around the pub offer alternates to the solid menu, i really wished i could have ordered about 5 appetizers and 6 main's but alas, only one stomach! Prawn cocktail app was traditional English, small prawns in a delicious marie rose sauce with a few slices of granary bread, this was a huge serving, could almost feed two (but there was no way i was sharing!) For mains i went light, grilled salmon with baked potato with seasonal veggies, absolutely cooked to perfection grilled salmon with a decent sized potato with carrots and green beans. Other winners at our table were the Sunday roast, meat and potato pie, ribs and chicken and the southern fried chicken. Great value, clean, and a well diverse menu make The Railway one of my favorite places to visit when i'm in England.

You can always get a really good feed, with food ranging from hearty pasta dishes to Asian favourites like Thai green curry etc. Maybe none of the food is particularly groundbreaking, but it's hard to bear for value for money and me and my wife often come here when we have someone to look after the kids. There's plenty of space and the pricing is very fair for what you get. Only minor quibble might be that the music is sometimes a little on the loud side and I always feel vaguely rushed when that's the case, but like I say: a minor quibble in what is otherwise a very nice little local haunt.
