Nestled in a charming village, this restaurant offers a warm atmosphere and a diverse menu that delights guests. While many appreciate the friendly service and high-quality food, some diners express disappointment with the consistency and timing of their meals, particularly during busy periods. Though options like the 2-for-1 meal deal provide value, patrons find certain dishes, like the Sunday roast, lacking in execution. Despite varied experiences, the overall ambiance, coupled with excellent cocktails and a dog-friendly policy, positions the restaurant as a popular yet occasionally overhyped dining choice, best suited for casual visits rather than special occasions.

Once again, Clavells welcomes you with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The service is fantastic, and the food is delicious, offering a wonderful selection of dishes. I highly recommend it, and I was pleasantly surprised by their two-for-one offer! Excellent experience overall—thank you so much!

I made a last-minute reservation after visiting the Etches Collection across the street. Despite the restaurant being clearly busy throughout the day, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The service was impeccable, and the food was beautifully presented and delicious. I highly recommend this place!

They were very busy, we had booked a table but the walk ins had made them too stretched. The food took ages, the service was poor. Not all of the food came out at the same time. I had to ask where our food was twice. They did apologise when I complained and they knocked some money off the bill but I think they need to think about the service and how shocking it was. They said they were caught out with the walk ins but if they are at capacity for booked customers, maybe they should say they are fully booked and give a good service to the diners they have. If you pay for a meal out as a family, it's a treat and this experience certainly didn't feel like a treat. Which is sad as I expect they can do much better if they have the right level of staff to customers.

Lovely pub for lunch after going to the Etches Collection Museum. The staff were really friendly and helpful but the mains were disappointing. It was a Sunday so we were looking forward to a nice roast. Really nice vegetables but the pork was bland, dry and had no crackling. The gravy was average at best and the Dauphinoise potatoes were lacking seasoning. My partner had a veggie curry which she thought was nice. The desserts were very good though but all in all a very expensive meal for what we got. It’s a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and really friendly people but we’ll be going elsewhere for food in future.
