    This was my first visit to the Travellers Rest …… and it won’t be my last. It was only by chance that I found this restaurant whilst searching on Google maps for a new dining experience. The staff greeted us warmly and helped getting my friend’s wheelchair easily into the building. The service was friendly and prompt. The menu was clear and varied at sensible prices. The food was great ….. well-cooked and of generous portions. It was a real delight to eat there.

    We waited 50 minutes for food to be served whilst diners who arrived before us were served and finished their meals before ours arrived. My partner's beef Sunday lunch was virtually inedible. Poor service and very poor value for money. We will not be returning to this restaurant.

    I’m very sorry to hear you did not enjoy your experience. We strive to deliver excellent quality and service to every diner, so I’m saddened to learn we fell short on this occasion. I do hope you will afford us the opportunity to restore your faith in us in the future. Kind regards Elysia, Dave and the team

    Seated to our table upon arrival. Unfortunately 3 of the main dishes were sold out, 1 of them being Fish and Chips which my son (who is autistic) has all the time when we eat out. Big decisions!! He chose to have Sausage and chips in the end which he enjoyed. Service was a bit slow but the food was very good and the waitress was lovely
