    Terrific, friendly welcoming bar service & front of kitchen BUT ordered a Medium $22 rump that was still mooing by the time the lovely lady who I ordered drinks from collected our plates! She apologised profusely and said , “…that’s definitely not right…” but had no authority to rectify. I said I don’t want anything but to make chef/staff aware/understand. I realise you get what you pay for , & that rump is a hit/miss cut of meat . This was a miss tonight like chewing on a rubber band ! Chips were excellent, salad had a nice dressing flavour. Third time I’ve tried now , they’ve struck out 😔

    The Plough & Ale is a cracking spot. Great vibe, super friendly staff, and the food hits the mark every time. The drinks are spot on with plenty of choice. It’s also really family friendly — easygoing and welcoming for everyone. One of those places you keep coming back to.

    The staff were very friendly and the food was good. The dining room off to the side was very noisy. We ended up going outside once a table became available.

    Staff were very friendly and helpful but the food was disappointing and definitely not value for money. We had a table of 8 and only 3 people were happy with their meal .
