I wanted to give this pub a really good review as my daughter lives in the village and we wanted a coffee. The local cafe was closed today so we popped our head in and asked if they served coffee. The man behind the bar was so accommodating and  said “I’m sure we can sort something” he 
served us a cappuccino and a latte (both of which were priced less than coffee chain prices) and nice coffee too 

The atmosphere was nice and he turned lights on for us where we sat, as that area was dark when we arrived 

A pub over the road had just said an outright “no” so thank you so much The Griffin for allowing us to have a nice comfy warm  coffee with my seven month old grandson 👍🏼☺️😍 

We will return, for dinner soon :) 

A very warm welcome 

Just re-opened for food today 17/10/20 !
Clean pleasant good value pub grub and service. Will come again. Plenty of space to eat and to park. Simple menu. There’s a garden too, but I guess it won’t be so easy to use this as the colder weather draws in.

Pub lunch

Great lunchtime menu ! Very reasonable prices and a good choice for everyone to pick from ! All day breakfast was lovely !
Staff all very helpful and friendly!
Recommend a visit to anyone in the area 
Private bookings also taken 
Bed and breakfast also available at reasonable prices ! 


Lunchtime !

Went out for a pint in the griffin and felt a bit peckish. The service was brilliant and the food was excellent. I had a ham and cheese in a baguette with chips and salad for just £4.99. I highly recommend it!

Highly recommended

A great menu with plenty to choose from. We had the Sunday roast with different puddings and It was lovely, fresh, home cooked food. As well as the food, the service was great; they couldn’t have been more helpful. We will definitely be back! - Ptolomeys 😊

Sunday roast

Lovely menu great choice of dishes, something for everybody’s taste.
Service really quick and pricing very reasonable.
Lovely clean restaurant and staff no all about the menu !
Definitely worth a visit !
A great choice of drinks at the bar also available 
Lots of dates up for various bands on Friday and Saturday nights 


Lunchtime 

This is basically a pub with rooms. The rooms themselves are okay, en suite with free hassle free wifi (without which this would have been a one star review), but get one overlooking the church bells and you'll need your ear plus.

My main complaints were with the customer service. My confirmed check in time was 2pm, but I ended up hanging around in the car park with another guest who was under the same illusion. The pub was opening at 4 and that was that. I phoned and asked them to call back, but nothing. A student helper turned up but said there was nothing he could do. 

There's no food (despite an earlier review) and that includes breakfast. The only other place I could find serving food in the village that wasn't a takeaway was an Indian - fine, but not really a choice, despite the village not exactly being short of pubs! There wasn't even milk to have with the coffee sachet in the room (I tried the bar - no dice!).

My room seemed to be occupied by two teenage boys next door, who kept whooping and yelling as they played computer games (anyone with teenage boys will know this sound) and I had to end up telling them to pipe down. I have no evidence of this, but suspect they were the landlord's children - the student was also staying in one of the rooms. Either way, unacceptable.

The carpet from the bar to the rooms is frankly disgusting. Entrance and exit is via a fag-end littered fire escape. Nice. A previous guest's lady razor had been left in the shower - if they didn't supply milk, I doubted they provided free razors! My room (6) was also open to people using the fire escape.

All this for £60 - which is really over-egging it. I'd stayed the previous night in a very pleasant Airbnb for half that. £60 was extracting the Michael.

If you have a choice, avoid. If not, bring earplugs, food and a sense of humour - mine failed me here.

Where The Customer Comes Last

We were due to arrive at 1400 following a 2 hour journey, just before we set off I went on the internet to get the post code only to find an e mail advising us that due to a boiler breakdown all bookings had been cancelled. Whilst I understand failures like this are beyond the control of the owners how they inform customers are within their control. A phone call would have been a much better way of informing us of the cancellation that is why we provide phone numbers!!!

Booking cancelled at the last minute by e mail.

Very nice pub me and my family had dinner 
There very nice food at good prices 

Went to bar for a quick pint before I left and we ended up staying for a few more hours with the locals 
Has a pool room kept the kids happy
 nice bar area and separate dining area 
Great atmosphere 
A good all rounder 
Something for everyone 
Which is a rare thing these days
And the landlords are very friendly 
5⭐️from me
