My wife and I had a last minute meal last Saturday at this restaurant,we sat on the sun deck watching the sun go down before having our meal.I had the homemade steak pie which was delicous my wife had fish cakes which were a starter but she had them as a main meal without any fuss. Both meals came with lovely chips and a varied selection of vegetables all well cooked. The place is very nice and looked as if it had had a recent refurbishment,the staff were very friendly and efficient and we were well looked after. We will go back again to the Stanley very soon.

Visited this weekend and was sorry to see the evening 3 course meal with bottle of wine has been taken off the menu.We eat here usually every couple of months and this was very popular with most of the diners.I think this is a big mistake, the pub was very busy outside as the weather was good, but restaurant was quiet. The service was poor probably due to staff serving outside. They seemed reluctant to give us a wine list and took over 30 minutes to come back for our desert order. I understand the new owners are trying out some new ideas but sometimes the old ones are best.Our 4 main meals were ok, nothing outstanding and we probably will visit less frequently.

Got to be the worst Sunday roast I have ever had! We were told there was a delay on food of 20 minutes- it was much longer - we had roast beef dinners, the meat was strange/tasteless, gravy hardly existed so asked for 3 more portions, tasteless as well, roast potatoes were ok but the veg , dreadful! came in 2 small bowls that looked like a pudding bowl, peas and green beans..NO carrots or carrot and swede..like on photo, no cabbage (unless the tiny bit of dried up leaf in the veg bowl mixed in with everything else was supposed to be cabbage). To top it all it looked like it had been nuked in the microwave! Inedible! I asked the waitress where was the carrots..she replied they had ran out! The waitress offered us the â40% off offerâ that was on ( I already had a voucher), paid and left wishing I had sent everyoneâs whole meal back, felt sick! But had an elderly lady with us so we paid and left quietly. Terrible!

Visited with friends. I had driven past many times but never went in. Today went in with friends. Although it looks tired it has a great vibe. The food is very good indeed. The curry was lovely. The chips were home made which is rare these days. I noticed they often show sport on the tv. Tonight it was the football. Portions very large indeed. I noticed they sold a good selection of gins behind the bar.

Returned here after a break due to the place going from 5 star to zero following a takeover,however, now under a different manager and whilst not yet back to the standard of a few years back everything is cooked fresh and to a good standard, Sunday lunch was very good, we will return to try other food here & update again but is worth a visit.

As a fairly local lad, I have only ever really attended this pub for a drink. On this one occassion however, I attended after being suit fitted for my best friend's wedding and we took his dad and the father-in-law to be for some lunch as they're getting on a bit. I will keep this fairly short because there is very little to say other than it's spot on. I ordered the Sausage, Mash, Onion Gravy, and Veg and it was delicious. Hot, tasty, and reasonably priced. Decent lining to the stomach too. I said this last time I wrote a review on the place back in 2017 that the food is great but I was limited in what I could say as I only had a sandwich. Even then, it put a smile on my face.If you've come here to see what the food is like, then I fully encourage you to go and give it a visit. If you've come on here to see what the place is like, I can honestly only say the same. Go and see.

Great atmosphere, food and staff but a specials board should be in the place where you are seated with a menu. To have it in the bar where it cannot be seen is very inconvenient! This means you have to keep getting up to read it, maybe have it printed on paper and given to you with the menu?
