The Crafty Hound Gastro & Grog

1. Sunday lunch.
   Only our second visit here and this time online booking was really handy and also a reminder the day before. No problem getting seated at 12.30 but thought it was a very dark inside unless you were right at the window. Good choice of drinks and we were served pretty quickly. The 1/2/3 course menu was okay with vegetarian option although not clear if starter/dessert combo was possible as one of our party wouldn’t have managed a big meal. Food was hot and tasty although dessert choices were limited. One issue was that we had a least 4 staff serve us a three course meal which led to a couple of mix ups. The staff were busy and there was a family party/buffet going on beside us which is maybe why they were so scattered about. The three of us weren’t long racking up £100 even though only one of us had all 3 courses and we weren’t all drinking. We would go back but probably not for Sunday lunch again and will ask to sit at the window next time. Would also be good to see the one and two star reviews being responded to.

2. Party of 18 people for my mums birthday.

   Today 21st April we were celebrating my mums 70th birthday. It was a complete surprise for her and the staff helped achieve the illusion and making her feel special.

   We can’t thank the staff enough for all their efforts in helping make the day run smoothly, help with decorating and in making sure all our guests were welcomed.

   Everyone agreed that the food was amazing, the service was excellent and the whole day was truly amazing.

3. The crafty hound is a family favourite for us, the standard of food and drinks, level of customer service, price and atmosphere is top tier, all the staff go above and beyond to cater to all needs and make you feel so welcome. Nothing is ever an issue and you are made to feel just like extended family anytime you come. Whether you’re attending one of the amazing events, visiting the restaurant for food or drinking in the bar you will not be disappointed.
   Myself and my husband would regularly go down for food and then call into the bar for drinks after and since becoming pregnant I am still welcomed in the bar with a cup of tea by Jennifer every week without fail, she is an absolute credit to the premises, I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else.

4. Lovely place, since my first visit I knew it will be my last 😉

5. I’ve now taken my family twice for tea and the food was excellent, and the service was just excellent the young man has now derived us on both visits and each time i tipped so he knew we love the service . The food was very good and well presented and quick , from the starters to the deserts all brilliant, we took are grandson and the server brought us a high chair , in some places they just tell you were to get one and it’s normal dirty but this young man went I got it and checked it was clean .
