What Anna T dislikes about The Moderation:
Food is good. But sadly the service was very disappointing. We waited for our food for over an hour, and when we brought it to the attention of the staff they told us the kitchen was very busy and rudely offered us to cancel the order if we don’t want the food anymore. Unfortunately this ruined the experience for us. View all feedback.

Crazy busy for a Thursday evening in July but the service was great and the food tasty. Unfortunately our first choice wasn't available but the alternative was yummy. Good beer too.

What wonderful food choices and really well cooked. As a family we had, Thai sharing platter to start, wow what a start! English and Thai main meals that were generous and tasted great. finishing off with a Moderation Mess that we had to share as well as we were full by that stage. Staff were really attentive and cheerful, and lots of family groups of all ages. We will definitely go back again. If you go, I don 't think you will be disappointed. '

The £5 Thai lunch menu is incredibly good value. The ingredients are fresh and expertly cooked. This was our group's third visit for lunch and we were absolutely...

I always have a great experience at this place. The Roast beef is delicious and they offer a good selection of ales. The landlord and bar staff are very friendly and welcoming.
