Reviews praise The Doctor's Orders for warm staff, value and beer range but note inconsistent decor and occasional food hiccups; improvements under new management.

Was a bit empty when we visited but it was early Saturday evening. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Lovely old building but a bit sparce at the moment, but I think it's only just been taken over. Bit of colour on the walls might take away the under-funded youth club look. I would go back.

The beer was good, but the selection was lacking. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was pleasant, with attentive staff working hard to ensure a positive dining experience.

This pub has really gone down hill since I last visited. Visited in September 2024 and it was dirty and dilapidated. No issues with the service really friendly, but with so many better pubs in the area, not worth visiting in its current state. Service: 4 Atmosphere: 1
