The restaurant was very busy, but considering we had booked a table we had to wait a bit too long to be served. However, the food was worth waiting for and the service improved
We had a lovely time, as four women chatting do - but we had to move tables as our oringial one was near the door and we were cold. Once moved, we felt more comfortable and ordered breakfast. Teapots would have been more effective way of serving tea, rather than a tea bag and a cup of hot water, we had to order 7 cups because of it - clearly a way to make you spend more. Breakfast was ok, three of us had the same and one ordered something off menu. Even with buy one get one free the bill seemed pricey because of all the cups of tea we had to order!
Excellent food, choice, and service. Which is why we return, again and again. It's not that far out in the country. And very rarely have noisy kids in there. Bonus
The service and food was as usual to a very high standard. This is our go to restaurant for birthdays and special occasions and will be for many years to come.
Great place to relax, staff is very friendly and helpful. Nice location. Food is plentiful and good. I would definetely go back there, would recommend
Been to the bird in hand 4 or 5 times and and every time food and service have been excellent,last night they were very busy,so we were sat more in the bar area,and the food did not really reach the standards they have set themselves,not bad but not as good as there normal.
Great atmosphere with a great choice of Sunday roasts also offering a second selection from the menu. There a good choice of wines and beers Great service
My wife and I hadn't been to the Bird in Hand for many years, but hearing good reports decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed. Excellent food and excellent service.We will certainly be returning.
Food was very good and yummy however the service was very slow. Took ages to order our food and then had to ask for the bill twice. Thought it would be faster for a mid week lunch booking.
Excellent food and service despite being VERY busy. Servers were friendly, smiled and checked to see out meals were ok. Nice atmosphere. Food beautifully served and vegetables were NOT over cooked.. crisp.. brill.
Amazing food and friendly staff. I especially like the fact they provide children's cutlery and are very accommodating to children (we have 3). A very enjoyable evening
Lovely atmosphere, well cooked and presented food. Staff polite and helpful. Good value for money although I personally found portions on large side. The gin drinker enjoyed the extensive Gin Menu!
Lovely old pub, meal was ok but maybe not as good as I expected. Chips were a little tasteless and dry, ham didn't really have a lot of flavour. Would be great if you could get a smaller version for us people with smaller appetites. Staff very friendly and attentive.
Really loved eating at TBIH last week. However I do have some observations & criticisms. I have to say the Moroccan Lamb pie was one of the best pies I've ever had it was absolutely delicious but there wasn't enough mash or gravy and I'd rather pay a slightly higher price for a meal to include vegetables. I didn't like the fact we had some vegetables & fries that added £6 to my meal. However, I was really disappointed with my starter - pigeon. It wasn't cheap for 2 small slices of pigeon breast, that I'd also expected to be hot. So when they arrived cold it wasn't a great experience. Overall didn't rate this starter. I absolutely loved the selection of different gins available and the way they were presented - first class. The service was nothing short of excellent and there seemed like plenty of staff on hand to assist at a moments notice. I would want to go all the time but the cost overall is what would keep me back so it was and will be a well earned treat to eat at TBIH. Loved it. (Please add vegetables to main meals it'll mean I will visit more frequently)
Excellent Sunday roast! Beef was rare and flavoursome. Nice selection of vegetables and great Yorkshire. Superb! Lovely desserts also. Good, friendly service and pleasant atmosphere.
Great food and service. Very lovely welcoming atmosphere made for a great evening with friends. Menu had so many different options. The pie was amazing
One of my favourite pubs. Lovely country side pub with friendly staff and delicious food. Also have a great gin menu. I would highly recommended.
Food and service excellent, we have never had an unsatisfactory meal at the bird in hand. Husband's birthday and they even put candles in his pudd!
It's always great food here, when we want to meet friends this is usually where we bring them. Such a great atmosphere and good service.
Great service including dealing with allergies and intolerances. Good size main meals and puddings. Fast and friendly service and also more than happy to accommodate the fact we had a dog.
Very happy with both food and service. Great for a family get together. Plenty of parking at 12 but might have been difficult at 2pm. (Bank holiday Monday)
The service was very good, and all the staff were very polite and helpful. The roast dinners were very good, with a good selection of vegetables. We will be returning again soon.
A great evening at a great location. Staff were attentive throughout and the food was cooked to perfection. Thoroughly recommended for an enjoyable and relaxed meal.
