The Hind's Head

Three of us went to the Hind’s Head on March 28. Despite it being very busy, there were no delays with our food orders. The standard of service was absolutely brilliant. The food itself was of the highest quality. I would totally recommend the Hind’s Head to anyone who wants to enjoy first class cooking and excellent service.

I recently visited this pub for the first time and am so sorry that I have never been before. The staff were welcoming, friendly and efficient; the food was superb - such tender lamb and delicious vegetables and the atmosphere and decor were lovely. We will - without a shadow of a doubt - return!

We had a wonderful stay with our dog. The staff were very attentive and friendley. Would highly recommend and would stay again.

Came here for lunch on Thursday a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't very busy but, the initial good bar service was soon eroded by very poor quality meals. The fish pie was dry and we had to send the fish and chips back. No body came to check if our food was Ok after it was delivered so I had to report it at the bar. The fish batter was undercooked and very soggy but the fish inside was dry - quite an achievement! When first reported nobody at the bar seemed to know what do and after several minutes and having spoken to the head chef, someone came to take it away to offer a replacement or something else. I opted for the fish again, which did come back hot and properly cooked. Given that it's not cheap, the food service and quality seemed to be lacking and it definitely has put us off returning.

Lovely pub/hotel.

Amazing rolled lamb main dinner, great coffee in the rooms & @ breakfast, fantastic breakfast also.

We’ve eaten at The Hind’s Head several times, but today’s lunch for me was a great disappointment. I chose the chicken supreme which was described as “Chicken supreme GF 20.00 gremolata crumb, buttered new potatoes, peas, spinach & asparagus, chive crème fraîche sauce”. What arrived was a bowl full of peas, some tiny pieces of diced asparagus, about four leaves of spinach and a piece of chicken, with a side dish of roasted, heavily salted new potatoes. I do not like peas; I had imagined they would make up a small part of the dish, not that they would form the major part and taint everything else. I had to sift through the pea mountain to pick out the small bits of asparagus and spinach. The sauce appeared to be buried by peas so I barely tasted that, though what I did manage to taste was tasty. The chicken was well cooked and succulent. Maybe I should have requested no peas; had I done so, a very meagre bowl would have arrived! Had this been my first visit, I would not return. I’m not too sure that we’ll be back.

I eat at the Hinds Head regularly, today I tried the Vegetarian Sunday roast option which was absolutely fabulous. Normally I have either the beef or the lamb roast and i would highly recommend all the roasts. Luke and the kitchen staff provide excellent presented and very high quality food. The Hinds Head is a loverly place to eat, all the front of house staff managed by Frankie are all helpful and knowledgeable of all the menu.

We were looked after today by Melissa, who could not have taken better care of us. Food was delicious and good portion sizes, highly recommend the cheesecakes!

I am in love with the Hinds Head and can’t believe we have missed out on going there before. The food is amazing - it’s not only tasty but it is so well presented - best we have had. The team are friendly and professional. I totally love the decor, it makes me want to stay and take it all in. I’m sure every time you go you would notice something different. I cant wait to go back. Highly recommend.
