    We booked a table for 19.30. The table was not quite ready so we waited until 19.45. We ordered a main meal only The meals arrived after 20.30 and we left just after 21.00. I was asked if all was OK as we have eaten there many times. I told the server no and he did knock 2 drinks off the bill It was my Wife's birthday. It did ruin a good day

    A beautiful pub serving lovely food . The staff did seem to forget about us between leaving the dessert menus and us actually ordering (we had to find someone after a very long wait)

    Delicious food in a wonderful setting! The Fleece was busy on a sunny Friday evening - we were glad we'd booked! It's asparagus season, and there was plenty of local asparagus on the menu. Our steamed asparagus starter was perfectly cooked and all the food was piping hot.

    The service was good and all staff very personable and friendly. However, the food was very average. We waited a long time for the food and when it came it was cold. As we were out with friends for a celebration, it became very difficult to discuss this with staff.

    Delicious food, great service. Beautiful pub. Tempura asparagus was absolutely divine! The only criticism we could think of, was that we had to go pay at the bar after our meal. The bar was relatively busy, so we had to wait a while to just pay our bill. Will definitely be returning.
