Pheasant Inn

Have been quite often and found the service a food to be of a high standard

We visit the Pheasant regularly. The venue is nice and homeley and food and service is usually very good indeed. There has on the very rare occasion been a below their normal standard food but it is still good but 95% of the time it is first class. Well worth a visit.

The Pheasant Inn is another pub/​restaurant by the bypass, completing the trio of pubs by the main road (with Red Squirrel and Weld Blundell), although The Pheasant is slightly removed from the other two, located on the back roads on the way through to Hightown.
Despite its location hidden away from the other two, The Pheasant remains a popular destination for various occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries for my family and I, or even if nobody can be arsed cooking.
The reason for our regular visits to The Pheasant is down to their excellent food. They offer a good variety of pub food, including seasonal dishes alongside the usual classics such as sausage and mash or fish and chips. On my last visit, I had grilled guinea fowl, which was superb and perfectly accompanied by chorizo, tomato and bacon — definitely one to try.
The staff there are pleasant and friendly and the atmosphere is both warm and relaxing, ensuring every dining experience there is an enjoyable one. The prices aren’t too unreasonable, but when the food’s this good you really shouldn’t care even if it does seem expensive.

Went to celebrate my Dads 62^nd birthday on Friday, what an awful mistake!!!
One of the starters was a sharing platter for two, which came with one chicken skewer!!! We ordered fish & chips for thre of us & Pork for another. The pork came with freezing cold vegtables, which we sent back, then waited for five minutes or so for them to come back, meanwhile the meal is going even colder, the veg came back with brown broccolli, obviously zapped under a grill, it stunk. The fish was full of grease, the actual fish was grey, not white & just tasted slimy, the chips were either soggy or hard in the middle. The waitress was very apologetic, but we couldnt eat it, so we sent thre fish meals back & the pork. They said they would take the fish meals off the bill, but when the bill came they charged for one of them, plus two drinks that we hadnt had, by this time my patience was wearing very thin, so she took me to see the duty manager. He said he couldnt understand because the fish was fresh that morning, which I suggested was maybe a problem with the cooking!!! He did deduct them from the bill, but it was a special night ruined by poor service & bad quality food, be very wary if you are going there
