The lakeside venue is beautiful. The restaurant ambience is hospitable, and the waiter service was very attentive.. However, the delay in bringing food from the kitchen was ridiculous. ( 2 hours until desert); the steak options were not available at all; and other menu items had run out. Probably due to kitchen problems, the food was mostly lukewarm and overcooked.

Excellent food, great view from our window table and wonderful to catch up for a lovely, lazy lunch with very special friends. What more could you ask for!

There was an unacceptable wait from ordering the main course to it arriving. We ordered the puddings and twice the wrong pudding arrived at the table. This is Unacceptable considering the cost of the meal

Nick our waiter was brilliant we love his banter - one portion of chips luke warm but exchanged promptly - lamb from skewers not brilliant - quite tough. Crumble appeared to smell of cigarette smoke although Nick assured us it was probably from the oven - would visit again but would probably choose different from the menu .

Good looking pub. Nice setting by the lake so good to sit outside. Sadly the food was less than average!!! Very much chain restaurant type food, very much all pre prepared and over cooked when it arrived. Price was average if the food had been enjoyable. Matk

I haven't been to the Fishers Pond so this was a trip back in time. The setting is still as I remember, obviously the staff and menu wasn't going to be the same but I wasn't disappointed, the menu provides a variety of dishes and the roast which we chose was probably one of the best i have had. As for the staff, friendly and efficient, so big 10/10 to all!

This is a great place. The staff were quick to serve and very friendly. The food was of good quality but sadly arrived at the table only lukewarm which spoilt all the other good features.

Found on The Fork to meet up with friends for Sunday Lunch. Was a dismal grey wet day but warm and bustling inside the pub. I’d booked weeks prior & asked for a table with a view but when I was taken to our small table it wasn’t by the windows; though I could see the pond across the room. Host shrugged & said “everyone asks for a view”. First course flew onto the table; it was good & priced at top end at £21.50 for most of the carvery choices. Table split two had desserts & two coffee & mini desserts. The coffees arrived 5 mins before desserts. Alcohol was fairly priced & wine was good & served at right temperature. Overall a positive experience.

We where very disappointed with the table we where given we asked especially for a table for four in the forties numbers but were given a table right at the back not very good. As it seems you cannot cope with a request and we were led to believe that you would we will now not be booking for a party for my 80th birthday on table 20 cannot rely on your staff

Been here a few times now , the food is excellent, if the weather is good it’s great to sit outside looking over the pond .. nothing bad to say about it. Wonderful place.

We were very disappointed with the service we received on arrival. We were told by a very stroppy lady that they had no booking for us despite me having confirmation on my phone. She didn’t want to know. We won’t be going there again!

Waited a fair while for someone to take a drinks order so OH went to the bar. While he was there waiting to be served we had our drinks order taken at the table but that was about 25 mins after getting there. Was really looking forward to a steak. Was given menus but wasn’t told they had no steak until it was time to order. Then I felt compelled to quickly make another choice and ended up with a burger. I never order burgers. It wasn’t what I had planned for our Anniversary meal but it was ok. Unfortunately for us we had a table of 4 very loud know it alls next to us which stopped me being able to hear what my husband was saying. Not a fault of the restaurant of course. All in all the quality of the food was good and the servers were excellent if a bit slow. Not sure I will ever go back though.

Fishers Pond has an attractive setting and is a clean, well-laid out restaurant. On arrival a queue had formed at the bar and we were uncertain how we should proceed. No-one came to us and we waited 5-10 minutes before someone said we could take a certain table. We took ourselves there - we were not shown or given the possibility of a table nearer to the water. The restaurant was busy but not full. Once seated everything went much more smoothly. However, 2 of the meals we chose were no longer available despite still being on the menu, and we had not been advised otherwise when we sat down. Two staff members seemed to be long-standing staff but others seemed new and to be in training. The staff uniform was rather a severe colour and staff did not stand out initially. We ordered drinks and then food at nice intervals. The food came in an acceptable time-frame and was very tasty. The menu choice was good (apart from the non-availability). Desserts were also very nice. The vegan & vegetarian options were appreciated. A pleasant experience but a member of staff on the door would have been helpful.
