Food was really nice staff were lovely and friendly .
Lovely ambience, fabulous food and great staff. Always a great night out
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.

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.
Delicious and tasty Sunday lunch, great service & lovely atmosphere.
Dining area a little cold. Fairly long wait for food. Too expensive for food
Fabulous food and excellent service - can’t fault it - will be back soon
Excellent meal with good quality food and exceptional and friendly service.
Food was delicious had the pheasant. Disabled parking is very bad only 2 spaces with no etching for either to enable mevto get my wheelchair out. Not impressed seating over original disabled parking. I had to park using 2 spaces.
Excellent service and quality of food amazing. Good value for money!
Had Sunday lunch very tasty vegetables. Beef was very tough and pork was very very fatty.
Service was friendly but 3 of the 4 main dishes were poor
Fabulous meal at the Blackbird, great service, food was delicious and it was great to see game (pheasant) on the menu which was cooked extremely well! Well done and thank you for a lovely day.
Really good food and lovely staff but long waits for and between ordering and service for each course.
Party of 6. Service was exemplary. Food great, particular standout was fish and chips, delicious and moist fish.

Excellent service and food!!! Will definitely be back in the future
Excellent meal, and great service, we'll be back! Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant time from the moment we stepped inside into the warm and welcoming atmosphere, to when we left in the dark and rain!!😒 Always one of our favourite places to visit, the service was discreet but attentive, food and wine excellent. We couldn't have asked for more. Unreservedly recommended!
Great service , great food , great location! We had Sunday lunch menu and we will be returning!
The young people serving us were polite and efficient . Unfortunately the food was rather disappointing and below the standard we have experienced in the past .
Excellent Sunday lunch, caring staff, good food and lovely atmosphere.
Nice Sunday lunch shame about costs of deserts otherwise value for money
Generous portion sizes. Food was delicious. Sunday lunch was cooked to perfection and the Eton mess was the best I’ve had. Service friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend.
Lovely food and very good friendly staff. Got busy after 1pm.
