The food was excellent. It's a shame that the decor showed signs of neglect (silverware uncleaned etc). There was no lit fire even though it was cold although the landlord did light it when asked. If the whole feeling of the place was improved, this would in turn ramp up the ambience which would increase the number of customers, and this pub could be a very popular and successful venture. Common landlord, your food is excellent, but it needs the whole package to be successful!

First visit to this pub in 25 years. Externally it hasn't changed a great deal. A nice homely village pub with log fires. Food was excellent, enjoyed by all in our party. Well cooked with a fresh and interesting choice of veg to compliment 3 Sunday roasts. Rest of the menu looked interesting enough for us to consider a return visit sometime soon.

Best steak in the county, the other food is awesome as well. Super pub for a couple of pints or a high end pub meal. Good wine list, collection of spirits and stickies. Always great service from Matt and the team.

Cramped table, choice on menu not available but it took 15 minutes after ordering to find out, roast potatoes very poor and over cooked. Vegetables uninteresting and poorly cooked.

Great food and good service....we had 2 Yorkie puds for Sunday lunch but you only need 1 as they are enormous! Just busy enough without it being overcrowded.

Unfortunately the service was very slow. The starters were lovely but we were very disappointed with two of the four main meals we had. Considering the price of the meals we had expected better.

Visited The Wheel for Sunday lunch. Roast beef was tasty but a little chewy. Vegetables beautifully cooked and presented. Roast potatoes rather firm and not crispy enough for my liking. Overall, a pleasant meal if a little overpriced at £13.95. The dining area was full and the atmosphere was buzzing.

It was a wonderful meal in a wonderful setting. A little gem to have found in a pretty village. The food was restaurant standard and we were made to few very welcome.

Not up to the usual standard for The Wheel! We had the Venison Casserole which was not good some of the meat was undercooked and some was okay. However the staff were very good and friendly. I think they were having a problem with the chef that evening, so perhaps just a one off bad evening.

Fantastic ! Dickies Steaks were perfectly cooked as was the turbo and cod risotto. The service was outstanding... Our waitress was single handedly running the restaurant and was a credit to the Wheel nothing was too much trouble. We'll be back soon

Rather cold and uninviting with very slow service (waited for an hour for our main course). Meal was average at best with unpleasant dry bread bun for the beefburger and overcooked chips. Staff helpful and friendly but not coping with the demand.

Unpretentious, comfortable and friendly country pub. Three good ales on pumps plus a guest cider. I liked that the pub maintains a bar alongside the restaurant style for the rest of the pub. Excellent food showcasing locally sourced food - a very good choice of game. A blazing real fire to make the place cosy and welcoming on a cold Saturday afternoon!
