What Adrian Davies doesn't like about The Old Ox Inn:
Lovely village pub and hopefully it will continue to be! Sat in the Beer garden with a beer last Tuesday on a fine summer evening but sadly some irresponsible owners who were also sat outside who obviously owned the dogs were not under control and one dumped just where I was sitting! The owners were oblivious to this as they were too busy in their own way Not great! View all feedback.

"There were just a handful of diners for our lunch time meal at the Clockspire which has a large open dining room. The cavernous space was cold and lacked atmosphere, exacerbated by so few fellow travellers. Staff were attentive without being intrusive. The kitchen offers fine dining and yet most of our dishes were over seasoned with salt very prominent. Portions were tiny and relatively expensive, as were wines. Overall the restaurant fails to offer value for money, and we are unlikely to return in the near future. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £70–80 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 2 Recommended dishes: Duck Breast"

"Food was bad, most of the starter dishes pre cooked and appear at your table in 2-3 minutes. Lamb was terrible, wine list is pretty bad. Tiramisu was made by somebody who never ate a tiramisu before. No idea why this place has good ratings. Just avoid. We spent couple of hundred pounds for dinner and the experience was like visiting a burger stand at the mall."
