The best carvery I have ever had. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Always a lovely meal at the punch bowl good value for money on boxing day
Excellent service, food and atmosphere would highly recommend it. Will visit again.
A family Christmas meal which excelled. All members thoroughly enjoyed the food , all meat juicy and tender especially the beef melted in the mouth great selection of very fresh and well cooke d vegetables all in all a wonderful time was had by all. Thank you to all the staff.
Love this place the value is beyond belief and hasn’t been matched at any other Carvery
Fantastic carvery and lovely surroundings. Will definitely visit again thank you
food and atmosphere were lovely could not fault any thing
Staff weren’t that welcoming. Collecting plates before everyone had finished their meals. Too many reminders as to how long we had left at our table. Like a conveyor belt service. I will say food was lovely, hats off to the chef.
A small festive get together with family, great carvery thank you
I loved it and the food is excellent.. our second visit and definitely will go again
Great Sunday Carvery. No Big queues & choice of Vegetables Excellent!
We’ve have been there 3times now For our Sunday lunch and each visit surpasses each other the seating is more than acceptable and the Carvery Is absolutely wonderful the surroundings are very pleasant shall be going there again
A very nice meal, staff were friendly and service was good
Excellent food and amazing service. Staff were so polite and helpful, would definitely recommend a visit.
Probably the worst food we have ever eaten, all the food on the car very had been sat there all day. All the meat was dry, shrivelled up and so overcooked to be uneatable, none of the 4 of us could eat our main course it was so bad.
Excellent all round booked for every sunday would recommend to
Very friendly and welcoming staff. Enjoyed a really fresh and tasty carvery with lots of choice. Puddings were really good too!
I have used this restaurant previously, and as on every other occasion it full filled all our expectations.
Wonderful meal, the food was great and excellent value. The staff were welcoming and friendly, will definitely return soon.
Excellent food and great choice of vegetables. Lovely and hot too. Staff as always welcoming and friendly
It wa sa wonderful visit for a family birthday. The only real downside was one member of the party having to wait 15 minutes at the bar for a drink, despite there being multiple staff working and minimal capacity taken up in the pub.
As always good atmosphere, food, and choice of beer, all at a reasonable cost
Love the carvery here, plenty of meat and choices of potatoes and vegetables
Staff were so polite and helpful all the time. Food was absolutely beautiful. Especially the best stuffing I've ever tasted. Took my boyfriend there and my son for the first time and he was blown away by the beauty of the place.
We were staying in the rooms there which were good. We found the restaurant to be comfortable, warm with an excellent carvery. Good value for money. However although friendly, the staff were not overly chatty and were very casually dressed not quite such a good image.
Excellent food, lovely staff, nice and local. See you again soon!!!
Calvary look a little empty and not appealing at the time, and food tepid in temperature, ordered meals were welll presented and hot.
Everything about the Punchbowl is faultless. Just love it, thank you all
Having visited many times over the yrs the punch bowl never disappoints, one of the best carverys I've been too, highly recommended 5**
Lovely setting and very professional service , had a good choice of vegetables but the meat and gravy was bland
Excellent as always. Took friends with us or thought it was great. Lovely food and atmosphere. Friendly staff.
First visit and very enjoyable, as a party of two I think we timed our visit perfectly as I think it may have been too busy (for us) before.
Had a great night food was fantastic service was excellent
Excellent service at lunch time when fewer people around. Food excellent.
Lovely food as usual. Always seem to be seated in the dark corner with very little room?
All good very nice carvery for a special day out
Lovely food great service and a lovely traditional feeling environment
We visited on a Monday lunch time with our friends for the carvery which didn't disappoint. It was excellent and very good value for money, and very nice staff. We will be visiting again.

A very pleasant place with lovely food and atmosphere in a beautiful setting.
Beautiful food as always. Greeted very warmly and excellent service.
lovely food and staff as usual. couldnt recommended enough. back very soon
The meat was lovely but a lot of the veg wasn’t so great. It’s usually spot on but the potatoes tasted reheated and the parsnips were over cooked there was no root mash which was a shame as I like mash with my roast and the yorkies tasted old. The gravy and the red cabbage was nice tho.
