We had a private retirement celebration upstairs and the staff were absolutely fantastic. In particular jack and Aidan on the day upstairs serving us and jack and Vicky who helped plan the event and were very helpful with their communication. The whole team were faultless. Thank you so much!

We had our staff party there last weekend and had a great time. The team were extremely organised and accommodating. The food was very tasty - the best we have had for a staff meal. will definitely be returning.

We held a Xmas party for a large group at The Plough, and it was the perfect venue! The food and service was great, staff were super helpful in the run up to the event and the atmosphere on the night was great. The venue is charming and spacious, and the shuffleboard especially went down a treat. Thank you!
