What User dislikes about Jolly Fenman:
I had a very disappointing experience during my visit today. The sole member of the bar staff was doing her utmost to provide good service, but the place was quite busy, which made it difficult for her to keep up. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough... View all feedback.

As a retired couple, it can sometimes be challenging to find a lunch spot that is both comfortable and accommodating to our age. However, The Jolly Fenman exceeds our expectations with its fantastic service that makes us feel appreciated as customers. The food is delicious, the ambience is lovely even during lunchtime, and the prices are just right. We have decided to make this our go-to spot for lunch from now on.

All the staff and their service was great bev and her cousin and the manager especially enjoyed watching the euros there just a shame it didn't come home but will be back some time for sure

The Jolly Fenman offers a nice atmosphere and friendly staff, perfect for a casual visit. The food quality varies, with some dishes being overcooked or disappointing, while others stand out for being delicious and well-priced. The service can be hit or miss, but some staff members truly shine in their attentiveness and care. The pub itself has a lovely garden and a welcoming vibe, making it a good spot for gatherings or casual meals. Overall, mixed reviews point to a decent experience with room for improvement, but the potential for a pleasant visit remains.

I haven't been there in two years, and I won't be returning for another two. The poor girl behind the bar was all alone, handling everything but still managed to smile. A member of...

This evening a group of us came in for drinks and dinner only to be told no food was being served. This is the second time this happened to me here...

Updated improved assessment. popped in today for a make and discovered the new menu that I found quite well with many decisions. delicious food and great value, with daily specialties! Thursdays deal is buy 1 get 1 free on burger! cheaper and much better quality then local fast food joints. beautiful cold pint of san miguel. personal polite, professional and attentive. ...... old review. an ok family pub. many seats outside for the summer months. pub chain. can wait a little to be served, especially if it is held a funeral guard there that is quite often and regular. also can a bit overflow from small children at certain times of the year. reasonable prices for food and drinks. limited parking spaces

Unfortunately as usual not got drinks we wanted or food. Went to bring out our mains before we had finished starters and they weren't really busy. So some of our food over cooked as it had been under the warmer for too long.

Food was lovely, shame about the extremely rude staff! There wasnt a smile between them, and they treated my disabled brother appallingly when he got an order mixed up, if you dont have customer service skills, dont work in hospitality!

First time going here. Would definitely recommend. Accommodating to a family of 7 with young children. Friendly atmosphere and food was amazing. Prices weren't outrageous. It was very reasonable to a big family. Will definitely be going again. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Firstly it 's great to see the Jolly Fenman finally has a Manager who is all for the customers. The previous one couldn 't even be bothered to come and talk to us when we enquired mid Setpember about having my dad 's wake there we waited almost 2 hours! Just want to say a huge 'Thank You ' to the Jolly Fenman for a lovely Christmas Dinner. This was our first Christmas since losing Dad back in August and we decided to book dinner out not knowing what to expect. Food was lovely, with the meals coming out at the same time, even though we ordered different, and it was nice to not be rushed at any point, the pace was just right. It was also refreshing to see a manager being so hands on and working as hard as all of the rest of the staff. All staff regularly checking we were OK and asking if they could help which was genuinely appreciated. Thank you all so much, we hope you are able to enjoy the rest of your Christmas Day.
