Reviews Summary
William Bourne offers a mixed bag of experiences. While some praise the excellent food, friendly service, and lively atmosphere, particularly highlighting the burger deal and beer garden, others report significant issues with food quality, long waits, and disorganized service. The pub seems to be undergoing management changes, with recent positive reviews focusing on new ownership and revamped menus.
"We have literally walked through our front door after being at The William Bourne for lunch. We live right round the corner and have never been before. Our lunch did not disappoint. Staff were friendly. Service was good. We ordered the BBQ Mac burger, chicken gougon and cheese melt baguette, onion rings and cheesy garlic bread, with fries. Portion size was reasonable and well priced. The BBQ Mac Burger was a winner!! The beer garden is lovely especially in the Autumn sunshine and we will definitely come back!! Took the kids and they were satisfied. Happy customer. Very impressed.
This will be going on our Socials... The Dirty Hawgs Backyard BBQ Hut UK 🇬🇧"

"We had a small family and friends 18th birthday party in the restaurant part of the pub last night for my son. We hired the room and organised a buffet with the pub. WOW. The food was amazing, and so much of it. Everyone commented on it.
The staff and the owner were amazing. They checked in on us regularly and even asked what music we would like played.
We felt like part of the owners family and they couldn’t have made my son’s birthday more special. We decorated it ourselves but being respectful of the gorgeous new renovation. Really was ideal for us and we’ll definately be back x"

"I have not eaten here yet but have a nice-looking menu. Good selection of ales and largers and a nice clean pub and clean toilets.
For me though, it's the staff. Greeted with a smile and a friendly chat.
Really nice place with a awesome outdoor area for dining and just drinking."
