Desert plentiful with a choice of ice cream custard or clotted cream. All at an extremely reasonable price.
Considering this establishment, as with so many more, are struggling after being closed for so long, the are doing a really good job plus they do take away too. Great idea.

Everything about it was nice. Firstly, there is a car park at the back of the pub. There was a choice of local beers (all nice) and then we had a Sunday Dinner which was good in terms of both quality and quantity. And the service and friendliness of staff was wonderful. Would happily recommend the pub.

We needed somewhere to eat between visits and we decided to stop here. We weren't disappointed.
The female who served us was welcoming and attentive. The hot chocolate... read more was actually hot- not tepid or lukewarm like is often the case. Perfect to warm me up after a morning of visits Served promptly and food order processed and send to kitchen quickly as she knew we were on a tight timescale.
The steak and onion ciabiatta was tasty and cooked perfectly. Generous with the steak too. Reasonably priced too.
I didn't try a dessert but they looked stunning. Next time I will.
The toilets were clean and well stocked.
A perfect little place to stop. Thank you.

September 11, 2020Don’t believe promises - Six of us, all local, booked for an evening meal at the end of April. We hadn’t been since the pub reopened under new management, and were keen to try... read more it again.
There were only two other customers in the pub; which surprised us. The girl who welcomed us showed us to our table, then disappeared saying she would be back to take our order. When she eventually took our food order , it was almost an hour before it was served. During that time, the girl (now behind the bar) seemed particularly gloomy. The food, when it arrived, was to be honest quite average pub food. Not terrible, but not outstanding either. It was served with little enthusiasm.
The barmaid started clearing our plates when five of us had finished. The sixth had not quite finished, so we asked her to leave his plate. It was still there when puddings arrived fifteen minutes later. We had to ask her to take the dirty plate away. In the meantime, we were treated to an argument taking place at the back of the restaurant between the barmaid and a gentleman who had come out of the kitchen.
Our main issue of the evening however was not the food, nor the lack of friendly atmosphere. It was the car park. We knew , from signs in the car park, that we were supposed to give our car registration number at the bar. The car park is ANPR controlled. During the course of the evening we asked the barmaid, when she was back at the bar, about registering. We offered to give our car registration numbers ( we had two vehicles). She replied “ don’t worry, it’s not a problem, if you get a ticket let us know and we will get it cancelled “. Consequently we accepted her assurances. She DIDN’T tell us that there was a screen in the public bar ( which you don’t pass through when entering the restaurant from the car park) where we were supposed to put our car registration in.
Needless to say both cars received Parking Charge tickets. Both drivers have told the landlord; and asked if he could cancel them in accordance with the promise given, and as we were genuine customers. “Nothing to do with me” was the response in one case; and a refusal in the other to even speak with the driver. Despite the fact that the barmaid was his daughter, he was not interested.
I am aware that hospitality is struggling at the moment, and sympathise with many landlords who find it difficult. I have never, however, encountered such a total absence of interest in customers such as that displayed by St. Aubyns Arms. Despite being local, we will not patronise them again whilst under the current management.
