Incredibly tasty vegan roast dinner and amazing staff. Brill selection of vegetables and a crunchy premium nut roast with BIG nuts. And no issues when I asked for extra gravy .

Just had a fantastic evening at The Castle Inn!! Thank you to Jon Ward and his bar staff for accommodating a school reunion where friends and I were able to catch up. We had the raised back area of the pub specially reserved for us. Great atmosphere, drinks and food on hand that contributed to such a memorable event. Returning end of January 2022 as we were so happy about the venue. Great parking outside and down side streets, easily accessible for those travelling on public transport. Looking forward to returning again!

Cold nachos that had been re-heated twice and then forgotten before being brought to us. The salsa served with the nachos was sickly and made my guest feel physically ill. We didnt even want to touch the watery sour cream that had separated... I told the staff whilst still in the restaurant, and showed them that the nachos were inedible and that we couldnt eat them, but was simply told ah, sorry- bye. Very disappointing as this was our local, but we will be finding somewhere else!

Great place to get a decent poured beer and a meal. Burgers have fantastic meat in them, well recommended. Try the sweet potatoe fries. Well trained and informative bar staff that make you feel welcome. Pity about the guy in the T Shirt with F..k Boris on it - fully spelt out. Obviously got it wrong - should have been Cameron who is making Mega bucks money out of this book right now! Hope guy is not studying politics. If you are a student maybe widen your vocabulary a bit and drop the expletives - you could get a punch in the face from someone offended in the street.
