Lovely pub with the best Sunday roast I’ve ever had (outside of my mums of course). Delicious food, great service and lovely tempo to the meal. Perfect amount of time to digest between courses without feeling like we were waiting too long or rushed at any point. Already planning our visit to come back!

Lovely roast, atmosphere, and service but the toilets need some attention. I visited the Talbot for a booking at 5:15 on a Sunday in mid September. Understanding that this is late in the day for an early season roast helped to temper any potential disappointment I may have felt at learning that food options were limited at this time. There was no Pork, Chicken, or Lamb available although I was assured by the evidently passionate host that they were due a delivery of Chicken the same afternoon and this was an unforseen circumstance. I ordered the beef - This was tender and delicious. The carrots, roast potatoes, and Yorkshire puddings which arrived with this were also top class. Good range of pints available - I had 2 Guinness with my meal but other options also available. The pub and it's staff are warm and welcoming, there are a range of seating areas each with their own different feel and atmosphere. Following my roast I moved from the upstairs dining room to the outdoor terrace for another couple of drinks. The upstairs dining room had the clamour and feel one would expect from a busy late Sunday afternoon roast dinner service in zone 2. The partially covered outside terrace was lit warmly and had ecclectic decor contrasting with the country pub style interior on the ground floor. The only note I would make on the Talbot is that the toilets did not match how they should be managed in a pub which was otherwise very high quality all around. Every toilet I went into had overflowing bins and the upstairs toilets lacked hand-drying facilities as there were no hand towels left and no hand dryers. They had also mopped the stairs during a busy Sunday roast service - these were already quite steep and potentially dangerous for those who may struggle with stairs. There could well have been a vaild reason for this but it seemed a bit confusing to me without explanation.

We had our wedding here and it was incredible. The venue looked stunning, every detail was beautifully taken care of and the atmosphere was perfect. The staff were amazing: attentive, friendly, and genuinely committed to making sure the day ran seamlessly and felt special. The food was outstanding (and plentiful!), the wine was delicious, and our guests echoed all of this. Richard and his team went above and beyond for us. They didn’t just meet expectations – they exceeded them in every way. We’re very grateful and full of praise. Whether you’re planning a wedding, popping in for a pint, or just looking for a lovely place to spend some time, we couldn’t recommend it more.

Nice place to sit outside on a summer evening. It was busy, but not too crowded. We had the tacos, which were delicious and arrived very quickly, but would like to try the full menu another time as it looked great. Also had an amazing frozen margarita. Nice atmosphere, people of different ages there. Not sure how much space there is inside, so would definitely reserve if you want to be inside.

Lovely lovely place to eat! Amazing Margaritas! Mango Chilli was our favourite! Can’t wait to come back in the summer and sit in the lovely garden

It was an amazing dining experience. The team really made us feel welcomed, and Angel really was hospitable. We were seated quickly. The back of the pub was reserved for dining in, and the pub had a great atmosphere. We got two three cost meals and drinks. I have been told to try it before by friends, and it definitely smashed all expectations and worth the price. I will definitely come back to try the Sunday roast!

We had an excellent Friday lunch at the Talbot while entertaining some visiting relatives. The service was polite and helpful, and the food was delicious. I was particularly impressed with the flavour of the sauces on all the dishes I tried. Such a great pub to have on my doorstep!

Easily one of the best roasts I’ve had at a pub, so so delicious! I’ve also been for the delicious tacos and aperol spritz slushy! The staff are attentive and lovely especially with the kids. Highly highly recommend
