Reviews For Holystone Park Cookhouse Pub

Great place to eat. Very cheap for some meals Monday to Thursday between 12 and 6pm at only 5 per plate!. The service was excellent. Our server Sophie was very friendly and very knowledgeable about all the dishes. It was very busy when we visited but not a long wait for drinks, ordering or serving of our food. Well worth a lunch visit.

Friends were visiting from out of town and wanted to give this restaurant a try. It is about a 20 minute drive from my home, so not too bad. I didn't know what to expect, as I hadn't looked into it. It turned out to be one of the best restaurant outings I've had in the past few years! The service was excellent, the atmosphere was great and the food was fantastic! We got 4 starters and shared them: chicken skewers, sweet potato fries, lamb meatballs and garlic & cheese flatbread. These were all a big hit with us! Two of us ordered the mixed grill that was on special and were shocked by how much food we got! We didn't have room for dessert, but we ordered it anyway. I got the chocolate brownie and it was the best one I've ever had! Absolutely fantastic restaurant - I'd recommend it to anyone who likes normal, great tasting food at very reasonable prices. The only odd thing is the placement of the hand dryer in the men's loo - right above the curved sink. This leads to hilarious water blasting. It's fun to see how high you can spray the water. I am pretty sure it hit the ceiling once.

We were staying in the Premier Inn so just a few minutes walk from our room. We had an early dinner there and the food was nice. Service is very good as well. It wasn't so busy on the day, maybe becuae we were a bit early (5:30pm).

Just had a lovely festive lunch with friends. Prawn cocktail , turkey then slow gin trifle. My friends had pate ,steak & after eight mint sundae. Everything was delicious & because we ordered in November we got a free bottle of prosecco .All this for 13:99. The service was excellent ,very pleasant staff & nicely decorated dining room. Needless to say we will be returning soon.

Fantastic breakfast especially for families and kids, huge selection of hot cooked and cold options and a swift friendly service. Staff can’t do enough for you and we’ve been in a few times on a Sunday when we know they’re up against it to wrap up breakfast and get turned around ready for Sunday lunches. Highly recommend.
