The Fauconberg

Lovely old building with a warm inviting bar. We sat with a view over the high street, near the log burner. We ordered off the main menu at lunchtime. The selection of each course was spot on, my older relatives can’t cope with too much choice. I enjoyed a breaded Brie starter and lambs liver main course from the specials board. A bit of bread with the Brie, to mop up ooze would have got you 5*. Liver cooked very well, not tough or grainy. All in all, a delicious lunch. Thank you to the friendly staff too. Great loos with nice handcream also a bonus.

Lovely lunch - great quality food and lovely welcoming service. The staff made us feel very at home for a family, birthday meal with a baby. Good value too and varied menu - pub classics and more varied options as well. Thanks so much for having us.

We stayed one night here on 14.09.24. One night too many . On arrival we were told by Ms Richardson ( the landlady ) that the torch in the Garden Room where we were staying had been stolen No effort to replace it . The Garden Room is a shed at the bottom of the pub garden . No issue with that but no adequate lights on the pathway or outside toilet . We dropped our stuff off and returned to the Priory where we were attending a wedding reception . We returned at just after midnight and with iPhone torches made our way to our accommodation . After a few minutes the lights and electric heater stopped . ? Fuse . We rang the ever unhelpful Ms Richardson who directed us to the fuse box . It wasn’t there . We finally found it hidden behind two old mattresses . Having dragged them away we located the fuse box that had “tripped “ . I assume she was warm and comfortable in her bed whilst we did what she should have sorted out . My husband and I are in our 70’s ! Unbelievable . At breakfast the following day she intimated we’d done something wrong and that she’d recently spent ? £13 K having work done . Ms Richardson was totally unapologetic. She is totally unsuited to the role she’s undertaking . Beautiful area . We plan to return but will give this woman and her establishment a wide birth . You couldn’t make it up

Just stopped in for a drink when passing. Lovely beautiful location sat out on the front picnic benches. Lovely bar and interior and greeted by very friendly employees. From what I saw the food looked great and we are planning to go back and eat soon.

We’ve just returned home after another wonderful stay in the garden room at the Fauconberg arms and can’t wait to book again! Such a relaxing and fantastically quiet place to stay but with the fabulous food on offer in the restaurant and the service of an excellent team of staff. The bed is so comfy and the room still offers the hospitality we would experience in the main part of the pub but sitting on the beautiful verandah watching the chiminea burn was really special . We enjoyed a delicious meal of the sea food platter and then the medley of fish and the duck and then fantastic breakfasts both mornings and every member of staff could not have been more helpful. Please don’t change anything about the garden room-it is fab!

Visited for an evening meal whilst staying in this delightful village. Glad that we had been advised to book as it was very busy for a Monday evening. Shown to a lovely table in a very pleasant dining room. The waitress came to our table to take the drinks order - big plus not going to the bar. Both drinks and food menus on the table . We were very pleased with everything, drinks well served as was the food obviously good quality. Very reasonably priced too. Staff very friendly and efficient. Will definitely return when in the area and recommend.
