What hadi j doesn't like about The Jolly Woodman:
Great service, and a nice back garden to relax in on a sunny day. Food was okay. Beef Burger was overcooked. The fish and chips was nice, but the chips were not great. I would come back for drinks. View all feedback. What User likes about The Jolly Woodman:
I just came over the jolly woodman, and what a pretty little pub. the service was excellent, last Friday night. I went down with a few kumpels for a few pints and was impressed by the bartender who had a top node I think his name was johnny so one up to the erde young lad easy to come along and very friendly.

Really enjoyed the food. Not too much choice but very well presented and reasonably priced. Thanks Nigel. Dog friendly

Nestled in a charming locale, this pub boasts a lovely atmosphere and a spacious back garden ideal for sunny days. While the service is consistently praised for its warmth and attentiveness, the food experiences vary significantly. Diners have noted issues like overcooked burgers, uninspired accompaniments, and unexpected menu discrepancies. However, positive highlights include enjoyable dishes like fisherman's pie and scampi, as well as a vibrant BBQ scene during holiday events. Though the cleanliness and accessibility have raised concerns, the friendly staff seem dedicated to enhancing the dining experience. Overall, this pub is a mixed bag, promising pleasant visits for drinks rather than dining.

Lovely pub inside and out. Fantastic food and service in a woodland setting. Wish there were more just like it!
