The Forge

There were 5 of us that went for the carvery and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Four drinks and 5 meals came out to only £49 which we thought was excellent. There are three cuts of meat you can have, turkey, gammon and beef; we tried all of them and they were equally cooked well. This is all served to you whilst the rest of the meal is self serve. There is a large range of vegetables and other classic roast sides such as Yorkshire pudding, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, sauces and more. It does get very busy so I would book and also be prepared to wait for about 5-10 minutes at peak times to get to the front of the queue to get your food.

IT IS OPEN. THE FRONT IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION But it did not disturb our dining experience. Superb carvery. Also available kebabs and burger meals. Full bar, beautiful venue. This place has a fantastic vibe. Great value for money. Plenty of parking. Wheelchair accessible. Only one tiny personal thing, it would be nice to have a lounge area to retire to once you've stuffed yourself silly.

Came here for a carvery. Had been told its the best and well worth a visit. Lovely pub restaurant with lots of space and beautifully decorated. The carvery was superb 👌 choice of three meats, Turkey, ham and beef. Vegetables, carrots, swede, peas, beans, broccoli, cauliflower cheese, sweetcorn, red cabbage, parsnips, mash potato, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, onion gravy with chunks of onion, all the usual sauces. 😋 delicious and really tasty. Definitely worth a visit, and only £9.00 . Will definitely come back.

We fancied a lovely pub lunch with good 'home cooked' food so I just put in a few locations nearby and one of the places that popped up was here. I liked the look of the carvery on pictures so we gave it a go! Fair to say it did not disappoint! We went on a Sunday so carvery was £12.50 but worth every single penny! The meat was deliciously falling apart, everything on the carvery fresh and topped up, we arrived just after 12 and it was getting busy, we didn't book but managed to get seated. My husband had a huge steak pie with chips and our child had chicken nuggets which were proper battered chicken, lots of chips and beans, it was a big portion she wasn't able to finish. We weren't able to manage pudding but they did look really nice! We will definitely be returning here as it was so nice. Parking was quite limited for a busy time of day Lovely outdoor seating available too!

I confess that I didn't realise that the restaurant was open because of the building work at the front (Nov 2023), but I am very glad that it was! The Turkish ambience is beautiful, and the carvery was just superb. I haven't had such tender and flavoursome beef in a very long time, and all the vegetables were well cooked. It is also really good value for money. Now that I know it's there, I will definitely be taking the family there when we want a lovely meal out.
