What Sian B doesn't like about The New Inn:
Have been coming to The New Inn for many years. The service today was dreadful. And they weren't busy! Our food took about 45 minutes to arrive. Had to go up to the bar to ask for a dessert. Our dirty dishes were not taken away. A large table near us hadn't had any of its dishes cleared either. The food was okay but nothing special. Mine should have come with salad but didn't. After waiting so long I couldn't be both... View all feedback. What Roy B likes about The New Inn:
We had an excellent meal last night at The New Inn. The fish and chips were really hot and generous in portion. The service was great, with friendly staff. It's good to see the restaurant getting back to the way we have all enjoyed for many years. View all feedback.

The tables are still sticky and the curry was overcooked in the microwave, resulting in a very dry texture. I will not be returning to this restaurant.

Lovely roast with chose of meat ,really good value for money. Staff are friendly . Cosy restaurant would definitely come here again

The New Inn presents a mixed culinary experience, drawing both praise and criticism from its patrons. While some guests relish the generous portions and excellent service—highlighting favorites like the fresh fish and chips and perfectly cooked Sunday roast—others express frustration over long wait times, a lack of attentive service, and subpar food quality. Despite recent improvements in ambiance and offerings, inconsistencies remain, particularly regarding menu clarity and customer engagement. Nevertheless, for those willing to give it a try, there are positive aspects, such as accommodating gluten-free options and a decent lunch club menu, making it worth a visit.
