5 star rating Lunch at a firm favourite With all the rain and cold we thought we'd head down to the Plough where we knew their open log fire would be alight to brighten the day.
They run two menus, thai or British and there is a specials board too. So plenty to choose from for food and a great selection of beer, wine and spirits. So today we chose from the british menu with a pint of Harvey's for me and pinot grigio for the boss. The food was lovely and staff attentive. A great break from routine.

5 star rating A Great Lunchtime Menu & Friendly Service Table booked for a walk group lunchtime at the end of a morning event.
A warm welcome when we arrived (about 20 minutes earlier than expected ... must have been walking too swiftly!) but tables ready for us.
Food ordered at the Bar together with our drinks. A lovely Specials menu, too.
The service was very friendly and I gather that all the group enjoyed their lunches ... very satisfied.

5 star rating Amazing Thai menu Visited over the weekend as restrictions are lifted, we were greeted COVID safe and shown to our seats in the front lawn , drinks order and food taken quickly and arrived all at the right temperature! We opted for the Thai menu which was as authentic as you get light and full of delicate flavours, great to visit again and we are looking forward to our next visit well done guys and best of luck for the future -

5 star rating Lovely lunch We had a really lovely Sunday afternoon in the pub garden. Really lovely food, couldn’t fault it and excellent service. We were quite demanding with two young children and they went above and beyond for us. Fab afternoon. -

One of my two favourite pubs in the South East. Great atmosphere, great food, great beer as cosy as they come and with some of the most cheerful & friendly staff you’ll meet. -

5 star rating Sunday Lunch Loving the roast beef for Sunday lunch.
Served up with asparagus, carrots, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and lashings of yummy gravy.
The chef, Fern, has not produced a bad meal yet.
Always a must for a Sunday.

4 star rating Lovely pub and very enjoyable Thai food The interior of the pub is lovely. Interesting decor, has atmosphere. Old and interesting interior. Easy to park. I love Thai food so seek it out. Friendly, young girl serving. Efficient service with no long waits. complmentary prawn crackers that she offered to refill.
Prawn dish - a sort of sizzling plate - were very tasty although I think they were a little overcooked. Really enjoyed the whole meal. Good selection.
Would I return? Yes and soon.

5 star rating An absolute treat ! How lovely it was to step inside this beautiful tavern - warm and cosy - and doing a good trade on a Friday winter’s lunchtime !
Really lovely food - very fresh and well presented - there’s even a very extensive Thai menu to run alongside traditional pub classics.

Yes we would return !

5 star rating More than a real country pub! My husband is very fussy about his beer and says this pub offers the best pint of Harvey's he's ever tasted. He was tempted by the landlord to try a pint of "Mother in Law" apparently its half a normal Harvey's and half Harvey's Old Ale", he's now a convert! The food on offer is far better than any pub grub! During the day there is an array of mouthwatering plates that would not be out of place in a top London restaurant and during the evening there is superb authentic Thai food that is outstanding. Apparently Wednesday night is steak night, which we are yet to sample but I'm sure it wouldn't disappoint. The Sunday lunch is to die for but I would advise to book a table if you want to eat as its always busy. You can choose to eat in the restaurant area or bar area. Lots of the food and drink is sourced from local business'. Dogs are welcome in the bar area, so you don't have to leave your 4 legged friend at home.

We visited on Saturday lunchtime and as expected there were lots of people who had been there since early that morning as they televised the England/New Zealand rugby on the TV. Everyone was in great spirits without being rowdy. It was a great pleasure to see the local trail hunt and the hound pack turn up in the car park as they made a pit stop. All the riders were very friendly and chatty and we were encouraged to get among-st the hounds and give them a good old fuss! It was a baptism of fire for our Lakeland puppy's fellow dog socialisation, but the hounds were very gentle with him.

The only thing that spoilt our visit was the appearance of some hunt saboteurs who were I have to say, very aggressive towards everyone! The Rugby crowd combined with the riders and general "punters" managed to evict them from the car park by singing a very loud rendition of "Swing Low Sweet Chariot"

If you're looking to experience what a real British country pub has to offer then this is the place to go. From the moment you walk through the door you are greeted with a very warm welcome form not only the staff but other customers. It has a real vibrant atmosphere without being intrusive and every-time we visit we have always been welcomed with open arms and a smile.

5 star rating Super I was lucky enough to visit this place two days running. Once for lunch and then for dinner. Lunch was a Thai menu with a big choice and was really delicious. Service excellent, staff attentive with fast service and good hot food. We chose Wednesday for dinner as it's their special steak night. Choice of 4 different steaks with chips, salad and a choice of 2 sides. We chose the sharing Tomahawk steak, medium rare and it was perfectly cooked. Chips were great, the sides all tasty and plenty of everything. This pub is about a mile from my home in a very small village but is certainly proving very popular. Highly recommended. -

After booking a table at The Crown, at Turners Hill, and being informed that this hadn't been noted down, the Plough managed to fit us in and thankfully they did. I had a lovely birthday lunch with lovely food and exceptional service. Highly recommended visiting The Plough -

5 star rating Went here for a lunch time Went here for a lunch time meal during lock down. Both meals were very nice and filling, staff friendly. During covid we sat outside on a lovely sunny day, there are tables outside both at the front and rear. There were covered tales in the rear. We did not book but this was an ad hoc visit to the area. The toilets were outside and these were clean. It operates full table service and staff cheerful say just wave, we did not need to as very attentive as they walked past. Plus its part of government eat out to help out campaign this august, pleasantly surprised at the bill . We had traditional english food, but Thai food is served too we do not know when but will visit again for the Thai food -

4 star rating Went for a quick Sunday lunch Went for a quick Sunday lunch with a friend , I own a pub myself so I always like to sample various pubs for lunch .
The pub is gorgeous , really old English quintessential English with beams , open fire etc,
Walked in and 3 people who worked there didn’t smile or acknowledge us standing at the bar which was when they opened , the lady with dark hair could have been the landlady was great , took our drinks orders and asked us where we would like to sit .
Food was delicious , we had a roast beef , chicken and leek pie and a sponge pudding and custard .
Can’t fault it , it was absolutely delicious !!!
I would definitely recommend going here, girls could smile and say hello to any customer who walks in , and the other thing is it’s a bit cold the other side of the restaurant to the fire .. maybe that side could be lit ?
But I’d definitely return !
