The Farmhouse - North East Lincolnshire

David is awesome! He goes out of his way to make us feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble. David is always smiling, chatty but never stood still...puts the young uns to shame with his work ethic!

We came with our friend on Saturday night around 7pm, my husband ordered the gammon which was well presented, I ordered the hunters chicken very disappointed, the chicken was so dry underneath I couldn’t cut through it so had to tear the top of it to eat, it had obviously been re-heated, the peas were cold. Our friend chose chicken and pancetta pie, which was nice but the roasted vegetables especially the parsnip was completely uncooked. We showed the member of staff the food, after glaring at us briefly offered us a complimentary dessert, we all chose one, which was going to be delivered within 5 minutes, which didn’t happen so after 15 minutes I asked her again where it was, she said they are just doing it now, we waited a few more minutes, how long does it take to slice a cheesecake? We left now ,having been subjected to a dreadful experience in our local pub, without the dessert. The pub itself looks really presentable, but the staff needed to be managed.

The food was faultless, the kids meals for their prices were generous portions and the children loved their meals (both can be fussy) Only complaint i have is that i didn't order the steak and venison pie my wife did, that pie was beyond tasty and the mash it come with was out scrumptious. Unfortunalty it wasn't all 5* they seemed under staffed and clearly forgot our kids desserts as i had to go up and ask 20 minutes after they brought out the adult puddings and was told it was coming straight out, i then had to ask the waiter 10 minutes later if it was coming and when it did come as tasty as the kids said it was, it looked very rushed and thrown together.

Wonderfull pub, lovely team and the food was excellent. The pub was very busy but team couldn’t do enough for you. Will be back

The farmhouse, it's was ok place nothing special. I found the menu a little limited for me as a good few meals were cooked in red wine. But they had my standard scampi and chips that I get to compare with all other pub, reviews. First of all, the barman messed up my order and forgot to serve with sweet potato chips. Instead, it came with normal chips, then also forgot my bread and butter. It's not a good start when doing a review on the place. Then it was ok food, nothing special. Nor was it bad, just a total balls up by the waiter. I would hate to think if it was busy. It was late evening and quiet when I went. Maybe for good reason, it was quiet, but who knows. I probably not go back, as nicer places too go and new places to review. Car park I didn't like as I'm a big car, and there was a stupid big tree , I had to swing around.
