I visit this inn on Saturday because was recommended, we arrived around 5pm to watch the band which was very enjoyable, atmosphere was good, sat ourselves down at a empty table to be told after we had to move as all 8 empty tables was booked for a 22 birthday party for 30 people.( thought the restrictions laid by the government says party of 6) the waitress was not very accommodating and was rude and abrupt, she made us all feel uncomfortable, the social distancing was not policed well as the party of 30, twenty year old, didn’t follow the social distancing rules well.
In this present clement of uncertainty, I felt things could of been dealt with a lot better, every customer should matter.
I would suggest to management to revisit there customer service skills, this would make a massive improvement.

No correct Covid precautions taken by premises. Large gatherings deemed to be allowed! Very rude argumentative staff when approached.
Only positive was the pizza van made a good pizza!

What a find! Camped out in motorhome overnight, fab live music, cheap booze & delicious pizzas. Staff were all lovely. Suggestion would be to offer coffee & some sort of breakfast? Loved it
