Amazing food at The Buck, the Sunday roasts are to die for. Great atmosphere, great service and great food. Rachel and staff are so friendly and welcoming. Only been our local for over a month but feel we have been and know the staff and local for ages.

Been here before a few years ago.. went back tonight as our holiday comes to a close. It's clear that the clientele is mainly the local leisure park... Made a booking over Facebook which was easy. A much better overall experience than another local pub/restaurant gave us over the bank holiday. Managed 3 courses from a well balanced menu. Good straight up food, good portions. Service was very nice and friendly with the staff, drinks and food we're all quickly produced. Can't really fault it. We'll be back soon.

Visited here whilst staying in the area on recommendation. We were not disappointed! Staff all very welcoming, it was my Birthday and they decorated our table for the occasion! We all had Sunday roasts meat was perfectly cooked and proper "home made" food with large portions including our toddlers. We all managed to squeeze in dessert which were all equally as delicious We even purchased a couple of pictures they had displayed in the dining area. Worth a visit here if you like traditional home cooked quality food. 10/10

Lovely meal with friends. The service was excellent. Lovely atmosphere for a country pub. My wife and I had the rib eye steaks and they were cooked superbly (medium rare) with a tasty peppercorn and cognac sauce.
