The service was slow, the food was run of the mill, we were charged the cost of a steak dinner for a small dish of side veg. we were charged for a pint of larger we didnt get, the sweet was cold and we had to pay a service charge for the privilage of them delivering the meals from the... more

Whilst staying in a nearby village in July, the Mandeville Arms was recommended to us by our b'n'b hosts. We definitely were not disappointed. It is located in a tiny village that would not be on your typical tourist trail. It looks like an English country pub but the food is superb. The night we were there was quiet so... more

The worse pub food I have seen, stone cold & under cooked, never again more

The Mandeville Arms is a very promising, exciting pub with oodles of potential. The owners are friendly, welcoming, informative and genuinely passinate about the food and drinks they serve.

The owners have made a clear statement through the menu regarding... more

We were all extremely disappointed and I felt I had to write this review. The menu was very small and there was only a choice of 4 dishes (none... more

Having visited my parents who have lived in the village for several years I am very disappointed with the new management who have been running the pub since the spring. I used to really enjoy coming down from London and having a family meal in this once friendly and welcoming pub. The old management used to serve great local food... more
