What User likes about The Cunning Man:
we met a friend who had visited before a last. the staff was very friendly and helpful. not all the tables were occupied, but the food and the drinks took one to appear. but it was worth waiting and we would definitely return. the log fire was a little cool out. a pretty country pub. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Cunning Man:
I love the Cunning man and it's eating. Today, however, we waited for our food (of course) to come out, one of the meal times was wrong, and my broken fish was hard and dry with very little fish in it. View all feedback.

In an enchanting setting with a cozy ambiance, this restaurant attracts diners with its warm atmosphere and attentive staff. While many appreciated the quality of certain dishes, such as the mushroom starter, there were notable inconsistencies in food preparation. Diners reported issues ranging from lukewarm entrees to tough meats, leading to dissatisfaction for some patrons. Despite these culinary missteps, feedback highlights the establishment’s potential for improvement and dedication to customer service. Regular visitors sing praises for its evolving menu and fair pricing, positioning this venue as one worth exploring, albeit with some reservations about food quality during peak times.
