We ate outside and were looking forward to a Sunday roast. The pleasant chap serving us was dressed like a tramp, the Yorkshire pudding was cold and the food was served at least 3 minutes before the cutlery. I chose the trio of roasts, but found. th beef to be full of gristle and the pork was almost entirely inedible uncooked fat. I don't know what the chef was thinking.

It was packed and yet still we got attentive service with a smile from Ollie and the team. Great food too, I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

The food was good but could have done with a bit more veg - spoonful of cabbage seems a bit tight The service was the highlight - LILY is very good at their job A great team member Other than that, will return but up the cabbage amount please!

Fairly limited menu with too many fish dishes. Some items not available - but that seems par for the course with a number of restaurants due to circumstances beyond their control. However this was more than made up by complimentary sweets by the manager. Service was excellent - attentive but not over intrusive. Restaurant was clean and welcoming. Prices and portion size was very good. No complaints whatsoever.

We were so well looked after by Zoe. Our food was delicious. Only disappointment was that the cheeseboard was not as shown on the menu. All in all we were very happy

This is the second time we have eaten from the festive menu and the dishes tasted very different. I was informed it was due to a difference in palette but honestly tonight’s dishes very not great. There are different chefs obviously on different days so maybe this was it.

It was a very calm, warm and cosy restaurant, waiting staff were attentive and food was great! Allergen info is good and accommodating, as are any small change requests.

We had cause to send our food back unfortunately because the pasta was over cooked and mushy. The head waiter was very apologetic and replaced our food with different dishes and we had complimentary coffees.

Very busy but super-attentive staff. Lovely roast dinner, and not pushed to leave when finished eating. Staff always around to catch attention, and everything clean and tidy. Looking forward to go again!

Mine and my mates steak was over cooked and that’s all which was wrong with the food.

The food was great and staff were very polite and attentive - it was busy at lunch in the sunshine but you did not feel crowded. Was lovely sitting outside.

Unfortunately not so great today, service let it down with long waits between sitting down/ getting menu/ordering etc Food good as usual and in defence of serving staff there only appeared to be two covering a large amount of tables

I am a regular customer at The Minnow and twice recently I have been disappointed by the portion sizes of the meals. They are a lot smaller than they used to be. However, the quality is still good. The service today was very good.

I haven’t seen my friends for a year, so I thought the Minnow has a lovely quiet garden and decent food. Soon after we sat down a lorry arrived to delivery barrels of beer, which were rolled noisily right next to our table, and the empties up from the basement also very noisily. That went on for a good 20minutes. Nobody apologised for the disruption. When we ask for more tap water it was served rudely. The staff seemed stretched. I feel disappointed about my lunch experience.

Atrended for a family birthday. Great menu, lots we would have happily chosen. Lovely food - the desserts were particularly good. Good, unhurried service. We all enjoyed it!
