Have just returned from my fathers wake which we held at the Ivy House. Excellent buffet, plenty of food and drink and brilliant service from both the bar and waiting staff. Good value for money and can certainly recommend.

This is one one of the few real pubs left in this area, still serves good beer in a real pub atmosphere.
The restaurant has a good selection of food cooked to perfection and the menu changes on a fairly regular basis. If you are looking for a night out with family and friends you wont do better.

Visited Ivy House for a second time last Saturday with friends to confirm that my thoughts after my first visit were accurate............they were!
The Ivy House is an old established Pub that like many others in recent years has seen the benefits in offering a Dining facility to it's customers. The layout of the building is such that a relatively small Bar area services 4 rooms including drinks for the Restaurant. The layout ofthe various rooms results in the necessity to climb down or up a small number of steps depending on the room chosen. To eliminate any steps the rear entrance is available for access
into the larger Bar area and the Restaurant.The choice of Beers available on both my visits was good and provided the choice that most would appreciate. If Dining, and, although not compulsory, on a Saturday evening I would recommend reserving a Table, one clear advantage being that your drinks will be brought to your table.
The Menu is varied to suit all tastes, including some Vegetarian options. Good, down to earthmeals, well cooked, well presented with excellent service from all Members of Staff........can you ask for more!
A slight criticism would have to be that some of the Main courses are perhaps a little basic with none of the additions sometimes seen elsewhere. My example of this is the Gammon choice thatis served with Chips and Peas and a choice of Eggs or Pineapple. Elsewhere you might see a Tomato, an Onion Ring/s and a couple of Mushrooms added to the meal but not at the Ivy House
they are side dishes that must be paid for and I was not prepared to pay £2 + for any/either.It really is of course a question of Customer choice £6.95 for Basic meal or £11 for the additions.
I personally think that a Tomato cut in half and two Mushrooms would add value to the dish and would allow a small premium to be put on the basic cost to cover.
A good evening out in a nice friendly atmosphere and a very reasonable cost.

Called in on the off chance as it always looks nice. Even though there was a big party in there and it was very busy they were able to accommodate us.
Staff were very friendly and the service excellent. Loved the food and the small portion was just enough for me.
Will certainly go back again.

I just love everything about this pub/restaurant. It has a lovely country feel to it. The staff are
excellent and the sunday lunch was absolutely delicious. Have had many a sunday lunch out and this takes a lot of beating. Booked the table for seven family members and we will definitely be returning very soon.

A lovely pub / restaurant serving great food that doesn't try to be anything it's not. On arrival we were treated like we mattered, asked to look at menu in bar with a drink first and they really could not do enough. When we were ready they took us through to a nice table, food was delicious, all three of us had different and we all agreed. Good choice of beer and wine and super staff. The decor of the pub is lovely and unique and the value for money is great. My only small gripe - I had the steak and kidney pie and asked for some extra gravy to go with it. For this they charged an additional £1.

Food was home cooked but not really appetising. The price was way to high for what the food was like. Big portions but could not eat all mine due to it being tasteless.
Atmosphere was non existent. Lucky there was a few of us. Would not go back or reccomend to anyone else. Very disappointed.
