What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Old Beams offers a homely and cozy pub experience with attentive service, particularly noted for its family-friendliness and accommodating staff. While many praise the food and atmosphere, some reviews suggest the decor could benefit from updating and one diner had a particularly negative experience with their food and drink.
"We hosted our Nan's 90th birthday party on the cosy event space provided. Food was yummy and decent price as well as welcome drinks. It was ideal really for what we needed and the food was great, team were very helpful on the day and before. We were able to put decorations up and really make it our own with flowers and balloons so our Nan had a wonderful day. Thank you very much for a special event."

"We went for the Sunday roast, one of our group had a soya and fish allergy, the waitress couldn't have been more attentive and assuring. She provided lots of information about the food, a separate card with the info on which foods and sauces had which allergens and even spoke to the kitchen staff again once the order was made. The waitress allowed the kids to have a smaller version of the full Sunday roast for the kids considering the amount of food on the plate , my son had a chicken supreme with all the trimmings for a fiver and my daughter had the veggie option for less than £4! Better than fast food any day of the week. We were astonished at the value. The Sunday roasts were great - the only reason and it's quite picky I didn't go for a 5 rating is I prefer my meats a little rarer but I have to say the food was cooked perfectly and I need buckets of gravy! Although again with no faff they provided a gravy boat quick sharp. We had a lovely meal and great surroundings and they could not have done more for the kids providing colouring sheets and crayons. I would highly recommend this place it feels like the whole restaurant serving staff are on the same page and they care about the experience they provide, great job Old Beams!"
