It a nice pub it fantastic inside and outside When I when food too 45 mins to turn up and it was other done the bun was hard and dry burgers was burnt Pulled pork chewy as hell. Best part was hash brown and fry egg. When the server came over to get the plates we told her about the food, she didn't look too bothered or sound too bothered either.
The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, its always clean and tidy and plenty of seating indoors and outside overlooking the Weir, which is beautiful especially in the summer. The food is typical Marstons menu, but always really nice and hot, we've never had a disappointing meal. The do a quiz night on a Tuesday evening which is fun and occasionally have live entertainment. I highly recommend a visit
Fantastic experience and the food was absolutely stunning. The staff was very friendly polite and helpful. Very busy but the service was quick. Plenty of parking with a lot of disabled parking but it gets very busy at the weekend so book a table.
Lovely atmosphere, good food, quick service and friendly staff. Mix Grill highly recommended.
I’d never been to The Sump before but they had an amazing offer on so we went along to try it. And boy did we not regret it! Staff were lovely and the food was above standard for pub food. They clearly have a great chef in the kitchen. Loved it so much I went back with other friends the week later! So thanks for the offer which drew us in and we will be back! If you have the offer again we’ll be back twice that week! Can’t wait to come in the summer and sit by the canal enjoying some more fab food!
