The food was delicious, service good and decorations were very pretty. Thank you
Food was delicious, both traditional and innovative dishes, beautifully presented. Our young server was friendly, courteous and helpful.
very friendly greetings. Restaurant was busy, with a large group of ladies. service excellent and timely. choice of food greater than normal with the Christmas menu available. a very enjoyable evening.
Had a lovely festive lunch at the Blackbird. There were 3 of us. Two had the turkey and trimmings which were plentiful. I had the beef which was so tender and tasty. Thoroughly recommend it. Susan T
Great atmosphere, excellent food and friendly and attentive staff without being too over intrusive
Fantastic food, service and atmosphere in a great pub. The Turkey roast dinner was superb.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The waiter was excellent. My friend spilt his beer but nothing was a fuss. The waiter moved us to the next table. The food was fantastic
Lovely Sunday lunch. Great service from the friendly staff. Would recommend..
Friendly staff and great food. We arrived 35 minutes early and every table was reserved. They did their best to get us seated ASAP which was very kind as we have 2 young children. Kids menu was amazing portions and value for money. We had a lamb roast and fish and chips, both very good for taste and size. Puddings were fantastic but at 9.50 each, seemed quite expensive. Glad we treat ourselves though and we'll definitely visit again.
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal in a lovely atmosphere. Georgia, our waitress, was charming as were all the other staff at the Blackbird.
Fabulous meal, fish was delicious could not fault anything and service was outstanding will definitely call again.
Food was absolutely beautiful, friendly service, good value for money
great evening in restaurant upstairs. perfect for our group. service and food great.
Lovely meal and staff were excellent. Thanks for everything team👍
All enjoyed our Christmas meal and at no time felt pressured to vacate our table. Service was very good. Good range of food to choose from. although not a vegetarian, the celeriac and apple risotto was a welcome change from usual vegetarian dishes.
We were welcomed into cheery,warm atmosphere for a delicious festive lunch. Our friendly waiter supplied several alternative choices. The food proved to be a mouthwatering start to our Christmas celebrations. Thank you

Lovely surroundings, we were made very welcome. Staff were attentive and very accommodating and the food was amazing.
Went for my fathers birthday. We all really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.
A lovely pub. Good food. Good prices. Good parking and very friendly staff
Venue is always a welcoming place and food was so good. Definitely recommend going 👍🏼
Food was lovely as always, the service was spot on, we sat in the upstairs dining room and the service remained fantastic.
The pub was beautiful, staff very friendly and attentive. Sunday lunch was nice but the meat was chewy and the veg was a bit bland. No where near as good as the sister pub, the Northumberland arms.
Amazing food and amazing service. First time visit but will definitely return soon and recommend to others.
We were in the upstairs restaurant. Perfect. Originally booked in the bar, but Blackbird contacted to say it might be a little noisy on a Friday night, so went with their suggestion to move booking. Glad we did. Perfect service and really great food.
Excellent as always. Nothing to fault. Will be back to enjoy the Christmas menu
Lovely food, lovely atmosphere,tasteful Christmas decorations abd very good service.
Restaurant was buzzing tonight. Had a great table. Food was absolutely spot on, as was the helpful and friendly service.
Food was good and varied menu. Reasonably priced. All staff very pleasant and efficient.
The lady that greeted us very helpful especially with wheelchair access Food and service just right
This was our first Sunday Lunch at the Blackbird and it did not disappoint. We had received good recommendations for friends who have ate here which encouraged our visit. I had the roast beef sirloin, my wife had chicken and our daughter had fish and chips. All the dishes were very good & well presented. The serving staff were excellent and very friendly. We will certainly return to The Blackbird on further occasions.
Room was full so quite noisy, two of our party have poor hearing so had difficulty in joining in the conversation. Waitress service was good, we asked for well done topside beef, it was still quite pink really but we ate it anyway. Overall we all thought the food could have been hotter, it was all luke warm; however there was a generous portion of vegetables and our Eton Mess desserts were excellent.
First time at The Blackbird but certainly not the last. We ate upstairs where there are fewer tables, which we preferred as quieter than downstairs. The pub was decorated beautifully for Christmas and we really couldn't fault anything about the food or service. A great find.
The food was great thank you. The lady who served us, not sure name, had great customer service; very friendly
Excellent service throughout. Good food with vegan options much appreciated.
Absolutely fabulous from start to finish. Our server Georgia was brilliant- what an asset to your business. All the food was delicious and beautifully presented. Cannot wait to return.
Unfortunately our reservation was in the bar area which we were unaware of. We asked whether there was a table in the restaurant and were told we could wait until the next people vacated. We didn’t have long to wait for a table.
Wonderfully relaxing, quiet, well looked after without being disturbed. Food was grand, good proportions and very reasonably priced. Definitely worth a return trip 👍.
Very busy, but the staff coped very well. The food as usual was excellent! Very quick to be served and good portion size. Only slight hitch was one pudding didn’t arrive but was quickly sorted! I highly recommend any to visit blackbird for food…
Fantastic Sunday dinner was enjoyed by all, we were a party of 5, 4 of us had the topside of beef (pink) which was to die for , very friendly staff, great service and great atmosphere, a very nice place , highly recommended.
Overall good experience, main courses excellent, pudding would be better warm. Room a little chilly.
All Staff welcoming and polite. Main - ok Pudding good
The food and service was great, all freshly prepared and served promptly
Can thoroughly recommend the steak & ale pie with plenty of veg. Pity there weren't child portions as my meal was a bit too big to justify having a dessert.
