Excellent, friendly service.Cheese Pie was dry and seemed been in the microwave too long! Homemade chips?? Very doubtful of that as very dry and very similar to oven chips. Steak was cooked to perfection and Side Salad superb. Not sure why there are scented candles on the table as it is off-putting when dining. Would not eat here again but... More

We visited for an evening meal because of the very positive reviews here. We were disappointed. The welcome was warm and the service efficient although we can understand the reference to Fawlty Towers made elsewhere. Unfortunately the mains were mediocre. The chicken pie was not memorable, served with way too many potatoes. The ribs were smothered with a rather glutinous... More

Apart from the excellent young waitress, who was friendly and attentive, there was little to commend the New Inn. The bar was chilly with a pervading smell of damp soot - although it was a cold evening, the fire remained unlit. The menu was ordinary, albeit with a slightly more interesting specials board. They had limited information on gluten free... More

We decided after reading that The New Inn had been recently refurbished and living locally we would give it a go! What a shock.....what refurbishment was the first thing that came to mind....we walked in and the place looked like a time warp to the 70's....it was a cold day...no fire lit in the open fire..a radiator was plugged in...

Thank you very much for your recent feedback about the new inn. Firstly to address the point about the refurb,we have never advertized that we have refurbished because we have not. The new inn is a 17th century inn and we are proud of what we are. Secondly the coal fire has been lit from mid september to mid april... More
