What owenjond doesn't like about The Grey Hen:
Monday lunchtime visit for a carvery. First impressions the carpark had more than it's fare share of litter, bottles cans and the usual paper bags and cigarettes ends, even the entrance steps were litter ridden. Should have turned round there and then. Must say that the carvery looked good , got to the table and then disappointment started, bland and tasteless bearly warm with a sticky not very clean table. All in al... View all feedback. What Mason Matthews likes about The Grey Hen:
Drive up to the window, order your meal, pay by card, drive away with a really tasty, generous portion sized Sunday lunch with all the trimmings! Couldn't be any better, will definitely be back for more. View all feedback.

Some staff are not really friendly!! Need more knowledge about customer services.

Despite a few negative reviews, the Grey Hen seems to offer a solid Sunday carvery experience. The cozy pub atmosphere and friendly staff make for a welcoming visit. Diners can choose from a range of meats and trimmings, served hot and delicious. While some found the prices a bit high, others praised the value for money. Overall, the Grey Hen is recommended for a hearty Sunday lunch, either in the pub or as a takeout option. Guests can expect a warm welcome, tasty meals, and a satisfying dining experience.
