  We had our son’s 5th birthday party at the forester , and I must say it was the best decision ever made. The outdoor space is perfect for family events, the huge tent can allow for almost over 60 people and most areas outside are covered meaning if it rains you’re sheltered. And they have heating!!!! Harry and the team were amazing, extremely flexible with everything from food to set up. The food is phenomenal you can’t go wrong with an English and Thai kitchen. I cannot thank the staff enough for their hospitality it was amazing. Highly recommend this venue for party bookings, corporate…

  Just wanted to say thank you to The Forester team. I phoned before we came today to check if we needed to book a table. The guy I spoke with was very helpful and easy to speak 👌 to. We rocked up (without having to make a reservation), the bar tender was friendly and patient (answered all our questions 😀). We had a carvery Sunday dinner 🍽. I decided that the smaller sized meal would be plenty for me and my partner had the adult sized meal. The portions were very generous. The meat was succulent, huge array of vegetables available. When I asked for vegetable gravy 😋...it wasn't a problem…

  A Very large pub with a very good beer choice. A large garden and nice function room. Was there for a birthday party. No wait at the bar. Parking tricky before 6.30pm

  Food - good. Service - very slow. Though there were 11 of us, we had booked, and were the only table in an otherwise empty dining room. Some people had finished their starters before others had received theirs, same with the main courses. Rice arrived so late the main that it was supposed to accompany had already been eaten. One dish completely wrong, again with rice arriving after it had been finished. On a previous occasion (over a year ago) one in our party had waited over two hours to be served. Uber Eats bikes in and out may not have helped.
