AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

This beautiful country bistro / Gastro pub is a great place for a family lunch…read more The menu is vast and there were plenty of options to suit everyone. They range from starters and large main meals to smaller 'soup and sandwich' options. The game pie I tried was amazing - juicy and tender meats with a lovely crisp pastry on top. The chips, outstanding too!

We stayed in the dog friendly seperate section so if you aren't so keen on dogs, there is a beautiful seperated restaurant next door. The food is immense, very original menu with locally sourced food and a twist on some pub classics. I would recommend the samosa starter and chicken pate.

The Boat is afloat !!…read more Nestled right up alongside the River Dee and recently reopened, the Boat has lost none of its charm or ambiance. I like the fact that they support the community around the area by buying their Beer and Produce locally whenever possible. Records date an Alehouse here right back to the 13th century and the interior decor reflects how the building has grown through the centuries.Lots of Oak beams and stone floors add buckets of character. You can choose one of the quiet corners for privacy or park up in one of the larger open areas and banter away or, weather permitting, take a table outside. Called in for lunch the other day and the menu, although not extensive, has everything for feeding all tastes from a wake-up morning coffee (open at 11am) to a refreshing pint of ale and home baked pie, or spend an easy evening with a fondue and some warm torn bread washed down with a pint of locally brewed traditional free house Cask Ale. They also have an excellent choice of Wines should you fancy a change. Once you have had your fill then ease down that food and drink by taking a riverside country walk!! The scenery is stunning. The great thing about 'The Boat' is that is a place for all seasons. When the weather is warm you can sit alongside the river and watch folk fishing for Trout, Salmon and Eel and may even catch a glimpse of the Otters who live on the opposite bank. When colder weather arrives you walk through the door to be welcomed by open log fires, and feel like you are home. Turning up here on a snowy Winters afternoon is a Dickensian delight. Word of warning - double check your directions before you set out as the Boat Inn is off the beaten track at the end of a long winding lane. ..... Maybe it should be called The One Way Inn ?

What a secret little haven The Boat Inn is! It's only about 10 minutes from our house, but we…read moreliterally stumbled across it on one of our daily jaunts around the countryside. And what a lucky day for us! Charming snug of a place, the open fires, low ceilings and original beams transport you back to a simpler time. The staff is wonderfully warm and welcoming, with excellent food to back it up. A combination of traditional pub food and higher-end "gastro-pub" fare, you really can't go wrong here. And the portions are impressive-- beware if you're ordering a starter and main. You may not have room for their excellent desserts! Ample seating inside and out-- can't wait for warmer weather to sit outside at the picnic tables alongside the River Dee. The best inside seating is in the original building as opposed to the more modern conservatory (though it depends on your taste). Bookings are not necessary, but if you want a seat by the fire, definitely call ahead!

Thought this place was fab. Middle of nowhere, bit posh. They have the pub and the restaurant and…read moredifferent menus for both - and we had to request permission to have the specials in the restaurant (apparently, they normally only serve the pie in the restaurant). Pheasant and pork pie was delicious, chips were good and they gave you extra gravy on the side. Great selection of ale and wine. Slightly odd atmosphere - the owners make it seem like a bit like they're doing you a favour by allowing you to be there. Bit cold. Next time I'd stay in the bar rather than the restaurant.

Great pub. Lovely take away fish and chips. My local.read more

A lovely little country pub with a twist…read more In amongst the standard fayre The Wheatsheaf has an extensive vegetarian and vegan menu. The vegan menu is mostly pub grub favourites but fantastically prepared with real attention to detail. Lasagna; burgers; lentil fritters etc. You can also choose from a variety of faux cheeses and can have such rare treats as vegan cheesey chips; cheesey garlic bread; bespoke vegan pizzas and so on. From memory they also have vegan beers. Highly recommended but make sure you book well in advance as it's (deservedly) popular. ****** SADLY THE WHEATSHEAF HAS NOW CLOSED ******

We do allow well behaved dogs into the pub but not during food service, you are more than welcome to have them in the garden.

This pub makes me happy. Stupidly happy actually. It's one of the reasons I enjoy going home so…read moremuch. And my dad has orchestrated a plan for getting drunk here on his 50th birthday, which involves leaving cars behind and getting trains and taxis. Back to Wales. How exciting. But it's such a lovely pub. They don't have a real cash register. They have a calculator. They have proper beer. They have proper crisps. I vaguely remember there being awesome home-cooked food but I've never eaten here. The pub itself used to be the railway waiting room, hence the name. It's a local pub, but a friendly one. And a round will cost you next to nothing too. I wish I got to spend more time here, but if you're ever y'know, in the middle of nowhere, you should pop in. And then accidentally stay aaaaall day.
