We had a great evening at the Axe & Compasses with friends for dinner. Really friendly staff who made us feel welcome and were attentive throughout our visit. It is a lovely pub that has a nice cosy feel and good atmosphere. The food was cooked and presented very well and we were impressed with the red wine also. Would definitely return here and recommend.

Simply amazing. The A&C was a favourite before a fire levelled it. Thanks to great insurance, it is rebuilt even better - and you wouldn't know it's built in 2024, not 1624. The same owners continue to deliver the finest food in the area, and service is very good. We miss some of the bric-a-brac, for which the pub was famous, but the venue is improved nonetheless. But please... bring back the dessert trolley!

Brilliantly renovated interior (we learnt that there had been a fire a while back), with beautiful carpentry work. Loved the decor.
The food is eclectic, and I got to taste the best moussaka I ever had outside of Greece, thanks to the skill and expertise of the chefs and the owner who happens to be Greek. The mezzees platter was excellent, and it surprised us when the waitress told us she had not seen a platter polished off like this for quite some time - there was nothing that was not to like!
The layout was spacious, so we didn't feel crammed or crowded and allowed for good conversations and a relaxed atmosphere, with discreet background din. Beautiful pub in a gorgeous setting, well worth the journey!

One of the best meals all round that we have had for a while. The staff and service was exemplary, food delicious and plenty of it, with a great variety on the menu. Without doubt we shall be back.

Our visit was for Sunday lunch.
We sat at a cold and draughty table and told our specific seating request had not been passed on. Our plates were tepid therefore the meat was greasy because not hot. There was no selection of vegetables, just two already on out plate.

A beautiful pub with a superb set of road leading to it especially for a motorbike ride out!
I hadn't been for about 20 years and it's still the place that I remember 😊 we had wonderfully warm welcome by some locals and the lady serving us couldn't have been more lovely and helpful!!
The food was at such a high standard I honestly can not rate highly enough a visit to this more than 5* pub and eatery. Thank you so much, I certainly won't be leaving it another 20 years before I return again!!!!

Wow, what a fantastic Sunday lunch here! A lovely friendly welcome. An excellent menu, delicious food cooked very well.
We had a super time and will certainly be returning. The car park was very busy - a true sign of success.
Very much looking forward to returning again soon. Thanks for an enjoyable visit.

Went here for an early dinner with my wife and 80 year old mother in law. Food, service and ambience was all great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. For food we'd particularly recommend the prawns in garlic sauce (we had it as a starter) and the figs.

We visited yesterday for our Wedding Anniversary. I think the food was good although I think overpriced for what it was. Our impression was that the staff were not friendly in fact no one smiled at us at all. That was rather disappointing that we did not feel welcome. We won't be returning.

The old man. OMG. Is so MISERABLE. You arrive at the bar and he just SITS, 2 metres away, IGNORING you. Not a smile. Not a hello. Just a grumpy sour expression. The people eating are all OAPs sitting in silence. The place is like God's waiting room. What a shame!! And the menu hasn't changed in YEARS! They should have replaced the owners when the place was rebuilt.

Always 5 stars!
Easily one of the best places in the area for a number of reasons, delicious food, fantastic service & a very cozy atmosphere.
They have a great range on the menu, which they also supplement with weekly & seasonal specials.
