Went here last weekend with my husband. The food was as lovely as ever but I must admit the service was lacking. We used to come here regularly on a Sunday afternoon and were always well looked after by the same lovely girl. We were disappointed to hear she had left...her replacement left a lot to be desired. We had to ask for our cutlery after the food had arrived! By the time our food arrived our drinks were still nowhere to be seen and I had to go up to the bar and order them myself, leaving my food to go cold. When the bill came, there were two rounds of drinks on there- only one of which we had! The mistake took 20minutes to rectify. I know they were busy but I've been there when it was busier and was always looked after to a higher standard and by a friendlier face. Food still the same great quality though and would highly recommend it on that alone.

Frequent customers of the Merry Ploughboy and have always had great things to say about the standard of food and a welcoming atmosphere. However, today the service was seriously lacking as our food was a no show! From the moment we walked in, there were a number of problems. We had to ask for our menus, ask for our drinks and finally had to leave when our main course didn't arrive after a 75 minute wait once we ordered. The service is terrible but moreover ther management is questionable as when we left the excuse for the lack of service and food from the staff was "we have another function going on." Very disappointing and unprofessional as we had arrived and ordered before the function started. Will definitely think twice about going there again and wont be recommending it to anyone for dinner...

I was told about the food here through a friend and so, as a foodie, decided to check it out.... The result was beautifully presented high-quality food which will definetly turn into a regular spot for us!! For mains, Duck was the choice and among the nicest I've tasted .... Dessert was mini-macaroons with salted caramel ice-cream with popping chocolate!! ... wonderfully presented & a nice way to finish off any meal! The menu itself is very appealing ... Its nice to come by a place which delivers to your expectations ... Chef's here clearly know what they are doing - hats off!
