The Packhorse Inn

The service we received was excellent. Everyone was really responsive to us and we did have a few issues, which everyone dealt with in a very positive and friendly manner. Our table was beautiful and the setting was faultless. The starters were all really nice. Our mains were disappointing. My brothers and sister all had to sit with their steaks for several minutes before receiving their sides - this is a personal pet hate for me. I hate watching my food get cold whilst waiting for the rest of the meal. My pie was nice , but I like a lot of gravy and I feel like most places simply don’t put enough on the plate. My mash was small and my bbq leeks weren’t cooked properly. I was quite disappointed, I was really looking forward to eating the leeks in particular. My dessert was delicious, as were all the other desserts we received. It was mainly just the main courses that were disappointing. I must underline though, that the service was really good. We had a lovely lady look after us all afternoon and she must have been quite irritated with all our requests but she never stopped smiling and offering to help. Everyone we met had a smile on their face and that makes a huge difference. If the mains had been bigger, with our sides served at the same time, it would have been near enough the perfect meal.
