    It's a very nice venue. Staff are helpful and polite, but at busy times you need more staff as we had to wait along time for our Sunday lunch! Although very nice when we got it. My 6 year old grandson enjoyed his roast pork and wanted to thank the chef . Visited again for Friday dinner and had ordered the Rump steak special which was a very poor decision.

    Staff were polite. Had to wait 45 minutes for our food and when it arrived it was luke warm. Not what we were expecting. The pub has a great ambiance but our experience was marred by the wait for and temperature of our food. Not in a great hurry to return. Sorry.

    We were staying at the Inn for three nights and booked our table for the first night. It was so good we ate here every night! The beef and wild mushroom stew was a particular hit!

    We've been going every year for six years as an end of holiday treat. Since our last visit the menu has changed - the Cumberland ring can only be described as a chipolata bend, the custard provided for a very sour crumble was luke warm, and my 17 year old son was refused a drink with his main meal due to local policies even though in law he can. I asked the waitress for three different drinks which I was told they didn't have yet when I went to the bar to choose something, two were available. We are more of a take-away family but enjoy family time having a family meal while on holiday. We will be enjoying next years meal at a Bistro just down the lane.

    I would most certainly recommend the hotel and bar for a drink but not the restaurant for food.

    The Cove Inn was friendly and welcoming, however, part of the reason for choosing this restaurant was it's wide choice of vegetarian dishes, so we were very disappointed to find both the vegetarian special and the most interesting vegetarian dish on the menu were not available. This meant the usual limited vegetarian choice that we have become used to. The food that we finally ordered was delicious and beautifully cooked and we will no doubt visit again.
