Just wanted to say a big thank you to The Gate Hangs Well & particularly Tillie for helping us get out of a forgot the elf situation! We went to the pub to capture the elf having been late to arrive because he got drunk in the pub. Tillie agreed to be in the pictures! All the team were really welcoming & the fires were on so it was warm and welcoming. We also order the Gyro’s which were lovely and great value. Definitely recommend.
A dog friendly pub with a very warm atmosphere in winter thanks to good food and an open fire! The meal was delicious...my friend has a roast and I enjoyed a mushroom and mash dish. There is a nice garden which would be lovely in summer. Will go again then as really enjoy seeing the birds in the area around the pub. Lovely friendly staff, plenty of parking too.
Popped in for lunch and was very happy we did.
All the food was delicious, great portion size. The menu is slightly limited in the number of items but what there is is varied. (Classic pub food). What is and isn’t, or could be made gluten free is slightly unclear on the menu (Saw more acronyms than were in the key, GF, GFA, GFR?) but when we asked the waitress she checked very quickly for us.
There were only three tables in when we visited( including us) so the one waitress was able to handle working the bar as well whilst keeping up good table service. Therefore I can’t comment on how service goes during busy times.
Overall we really enjoyed our lunch and I’m sure we will be back.
What a great day we had, sat under very large tree near lake/canal ! Plenty room for our dogs to roam near us on leads. Under shade as was hot day. Meal was fabulous, hot, tasty, plenty of it. Drinks were nice cold. Young guy, not long been member staff was really friendly, made us feel very welcome, especially our dogs, they are our family so that was very nice of him.
Definitely go again.
We love this place. Great food, friendly staff and a wonderful venue right on the canal. Our boys love the space outside too.
We had our wedding reception at The Gate Hangs Well at the end of June, and to be honest, I have to say we were disappointed overall. We were recommended the venue as we were looking for somewhere for a small gathering on a budget, so the boathouse was ideal for what we needed. We made the enquiry, and they were quick to respond to emails and provided all the information we needed - they even let us have the 3 course menu and arrange for us to have beef since the regular steaks were unavailable. When we went to view the boathouse, we were advised they would be showing someone else round, so we would have to wait which we were fine with. We watched and listened in as they told the other people how they could set the room up, showed them where stuff was, generally asked them questions about their booking and even suggested they could have the piano tuned for them if they wanted to use it. When they left and it was our turn to view, we were told "this is it", and we were left to ask questions about set up, etc as the information wasn't volunteered. Still, we continued with the booking (and stayed for food after the viewing). We were told to take anything we wanted setting up the night before and to leave it with them because they had another event - which we did. We also asked if they had candles for the table which they said they did and would include in the set up. Again, the night before our wedding, we had another meal there with the majority of our party. On the day of my wedding, I turned up to the venue and everything I left the night before was exactly where I put it. ON MY WEDDING DAY, while the rest of the party sat outside enjoying the day, I set up my own wedding reception... I found the candles in the windows but they didn't have anything to light them with. I went into the toilet to take my makeup off and the young lady that was looking after us asked if I was ok because she thought I was crying. I'm not sure of the young ladies name (dark hair) but she was the only one that seemed to care. We hope she got the flowers we left for her and that they weren't kept by the other lady. To add insult to injury, the follow up email after the reception had someone else's name on it! We wouldn't recommend this venue based on our experience. I believe someone else is running the pub now, so I hope the remaining team members are now providing a better service than we received. It's a shame because it was a nice venue.
Went for golden years meal deal only to be told there was an error with the menu and it was more expensive, but went ahead with the meal. The first course I had mushrooms but they were cold, the main course scampi chips and peas, the peas were like bullets hard and no taste was most disappointing.
Very little atmosphere and the room was cold.
Lovely chilled place. Be great in sunshine outside. Plenty of space for kids to play and very safe.
