Have eaten here many times over the last couple of years and it was always very good. However when we visited in October last it wasn't so good and I reported here why. Haven't been back here until this week as we decided maybe they were just having an off day, and we felt they deserved another chance. Four of... More

Came here a number of years ago with my brother, who lives locally. It was the classic run down country pub with sticky carpets & down at heel atmosphere...fast forward a couple of years & a complete transformation into a very good pub with excellent food, service, wine & beers. What is clear is that care, attention to detail &... More

We have visited the Queen several times, and have never had any need to complain. Our most recent visit however was the exact opposite.I believe it was one of the owners who was working, and there was a distinct lack of any other front of house staff.... Hence the long wait for both our main and dessert plates to be... More

I enjoyed a lovely dinner here over the May bank holiday weekend. Booking was important, but I could pretty much choose a time to dine. The two dining areas were large, but the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Excellent young serving staff; they really knew their stuff re wine suggestions and helpfulness generally. Top marks, too, for the food which,... More

My wife and I visited the Dennington Queen on 2 separate occasions for dinner whilst staying for a short break in the local area. The food, beer and wine and the service were all superb and exceeded all expectations. The standard by which all competitors should be judged. Worth buying the house for sale on the green just to be... More

I visited the Dennington Queen for lunch with a family member last week. I had the chicken goujons which didnt have much flavour and a blue cheese dip which didnt taste much of blue cheese. My pudding was much nicer. Ginger sponge with a lemon sherbert ice cream. The lunch was ok. Nothing spectacular. I was somewhat disapointed as friends... More

Stopped in here at lunchtime on our way to the coast for a Saturday outing. Although quiet for a Saturday lunchtime there were a few other customers around. We all (me + wife + 14/12 yr old girls) decided to go for ciabattas which were all really enjoyable. They come served on little wooden trays with some salad and parsnip... More

We booked a table here for a family meal last Saturday evening (30th), and you couldn't wish for a better place to go. Something for everyone on the menu, food of excellent quality and staff who were polite and friendly. Other pubs in the area should follow their lead. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food and relaxed atmosphere and... More

This pub manages to bring together ambiance, food and service to give a superb experience. They make it look so effortless that you wonder why so many other places find it so difficult.
