    Lovely, traditional English pub. They've got all the important things nailed. Cold beer, hot food -…read moreand at great prices. Really friendly bar/restaurant staff that greeted me like a long-lost friend. There is a great restaurant - full of English charm and the food is just what you expect and need from a proper British boozer. The essentials of a pool table and dart board are also in place! Plenty of parking in the car park and a cheery open fire adds to the charm. There is a function room and private dining room (we had a good nosey around) and there are murals on one wall of the famous faces that used to frequent - Rod Stewart, Noel Edmonds, U2 and various famous faces from an epic time in British music history. It's not a music venue as such now but there are occasional bands, quiz nights and other events on. Worth checking in if you are passing through or are nearby. Woollaston is a really pretty little village for a wander around. Hope you enjoy as much as I did!!

The Wollaston…read moreInn used to be known in the 1970s as a mecca for live acts with outstanding bands making the trek from the city out to this little oasis in the country. Acts such as U2, Status Quo, Thin Lizzy and John Peel himself are all said to have played there in their early career. Obviously the pub has changed radically since those heady days of rock and roll. The old hall upstairs which was used as the club can still be hired out for events. With its large windows and stripped floor it has a fantastic charm for an intimate wedding or celebration. However, you will be pleased to hear that there is no evidence of the 70's disco that it used to be. The restaurant downstairs is a revelation to the village. Chris the head chef has brought high quality dining to the area much like his predecessor brought quality rock bands. His menu is interesting without being pretentious with classics such as game, steak and chicken sitting beside a great fish menu. The selection changes regularly so each time there is something new to try. His wine list is also very strong and we have enjoyed many a night sampling a range of grape derived delights. The pub offers private dining as well as the hall and restaurant so it can cater for family groups of up to 10 or 12 people. On the nights we have been there the place has been busy so I recommend booking ahead of time. In conclusion I would highly recommend this place if you are in mind for top notch food in a historic setting.

    A worrying start as we sat down, the place settings (pictured) were probably a clue, perfect for…read moresouth-paws, but what about the norm of putting the wine glass next to the right hand? The service proved to be very poor. Wine only arrived after the starters were finished and then only after we had requested it. When it did arrive it was just deposited on the table, not poured, no tasting offered. The table nearby was possibly less well served, after 40 minutes the starters came out, and the mains took over 75 minutes from them sitting down. We had empty glasses on the table whilst serving staff went past at least a dozen times, we eventually asked for them to be removed. When our food finally arrived the food is actually quite good: my mixed grill was quite tasty, but my partner's halloumi was undercooked (not crispy or squeaky) and the tzatziki didn't taste of mint or have a kick of garlic and lemon which is very disappointing, it tasted more like tartare sauce! The creme brulee let the side down again: the 'dipping strawberries' on top with dark and white chocolate were lovely, but the sugar on top of the brulee wasn't caramelised, so no crunchy top although the custard beneath was good. Overall a strange mixed result. Perhaps if they replace the front of house staff things would be better, but the kitchen needs to work a little harder too We probably won't return for a meal, but if you fancy a nice drink by the canal on a good day recommended.

    Nice canal side pub with a big garden…read more Whilst this is a lovely pub it is very over-priced. When all said and done, it's a village pub that charges London prices for both beer and food. The food is quite nice to be fair and the staff seem friendly enough. The pub itself boasts a great canal side location which is fantastic in the summer months watching the boats go by. The interior is fresh and welcoming and the locals are friendly. I will visit again but I won't be able to drink as much as I would like to due to the extortionate prices of their ales and beers. Not sure if I would eat there again as their are cheaper options in the area that are just as good.

Luckily, when the main course came, chips and with a chunky steak pie. yummy!! I know this stuff isn't fresh, its all delivered frozen, but boy, it was tasty and cooked perfectly! Gravy oozing out, tasty meat, and peas swimming delightfully in the stuff. I was I had taken a picture, it was postcard perfect. Calorific, stodgy, filling and belt popping, not for some one watching their figure, or not looking to become a miniature satellite orbiting Jupiter. For the price this is what i expect, wonderful taste, affordable, fattening. Good selection of beers and spirits, friendly helpful staff, clean tables, very polite always ask how things are. This is one place I intend to revisit for sure. Love it!! Except I wont have the soggy bread option next time. i would have rated it higher if it wasn't for the poor starter.

They serve food which is typical pub style food which is nice and there are plenty of tables including some outdoor patio tables. The prices are reasonable, the food is good value and the service is usually pretty good too. It is the similar style to the Priory and the Needle and Awl pubs which are all situated within a few miles of each other.

    We visited The World's End before heading to another local pub for some live music; it was more a…read morecase of necessity rather than choice but, all in all, it was a good meal before an evening with a few drinks. It's a fairly large pub, with a separate restaurant and bar, plus a hotel upstairs. The bar area was busy when we arrived whereas the restaurant was completely empty - so guess where we were sat! To be fair, it was early when we arrived, and it started to fill up towards the end of our meal. There was a bit of confusion over our booking but, as mentioned, there really wasn't much need for it. The menu is pretty large with a selection of different mains, salads and sandwiches. My mum and I decided to share the halloumi dish, with came with cous cous and peppers, and the lamb kofta kebab, served with a pitta and chips. Both dishes were good though the lamb was slightly oily - never good, especially when served on a wooden board. A good meal and a pub worth knowing about if you're in the area but not somewhere I'd rush back to.

The pub area is light and airy, the staff are pretty friendly and the range of drinks is quite large including some of the larger names of real ales. There's also the option to eat in the bar area or in the huge terrace area at the rear, which has the large European cafe style of canopies and gas heaters. Having been to the restaurant at the World's End around five or six times over the last few years, there's certainly a small element of hit or miss when it comes to consistency of quality of food leaving the kitchen from time to time. Sunday lunch there is pretty good value, at under ten Pounds and is fresh and generally tasty. We've had a couple of issues where not all of the party's meals arriving at the same time - but the staff are always polite and resolve to the best of their ability. They even offered to knock one meal off the bill for not getting it out at the same time - but this wasn't necessary and we paid the value to them as part of the tip for handling the issue so well. Occasionally the steaks do let this place down. It's a shame as 90% of the time they're wonderful, tasty and juicy and not at all overpriced, ranging from around £15 for the rump up to £20 for the fillet. Just paying a little more attention to the consistency in quality of the meat will sort this out, but when it's right (and it is 90% of the time) they are very very nice indeed. The grazing boards are excellent for a light informal snack, if a little on the pricy side for what you get. The home comforts from the menu offer home-style foods, such as fish and chips (little too bony perhaps) sausage and mash (recommended) and an excellent steak burger which is very good indeed. On the whole, the atmosphere, service, and food are perhaps an eight out of ten, but a little too often the amount of customers can make the service and food slip to a six. And if you get a table next to the entrance to the toilets, ask to move! The door bangs shut with an almighty force, which will drive you potty (no pun intended) by the time you leave! But on the whole, not bad, worth a visit or two.
