We were recommended to come here by our host and are grateful. They accommodated our group of 19 on a busy, hot summer Saturday with ease and professionalism. The staff were very friendly and kind as well as superbly efficient. All the food was great. Highly recommended.

We went here for my husbands birthday. We both ordered the salmon dish and a drink to start with. I must say I have not had such a tasty bit of salmon with a superb flavoured parsley sauce in a while. We then had a dessert each my husband choice sticky toffee pudding and I chose the aero mint sundae. Mine must of had a few packet of aero balls in it as we’re never ending and I was not complaining. Best Sunday I’ve had in a while. My husbands pudding was a fair chunk and very tasty. We were both very satisfied at the end. The staff were very friendly and the surrounding very nice indeed. Nice that it is dog friendly to. Plenty of parking. Was a very busy pub but enough staff on to cover. Will definitely go back now we have found this gem.

My family and I visited this venue recently. The location is perfect, with a large, convenient car park. The pub was quite busy when we arrived, yet service was prompt right from the start. They offer an extensive menu , a nice change from many other places I’ve been to. I ordered the steak and ale pie, the meat was tender, the shortcrust pastry lovely, and the vegetables perfectly al dente — it was excellent. My wife had the steak with stilton sauce, and she had no complaints at all. If you’re looking for fantastic food, a great choice of dishes, and quick table service, this is definitely the spot. A big shout‑out to the chefs and a very well done! We will certainly be returning.

A great night at The Gate Inn for one of their Christmas party nights. The 4 course meal was fab. Served in an extremely busy setting. The outside of the building looks very festive with all the lights. Good entertainment from the male vocalist (Chris) I think. The staff all worked very hard to keep everyone fed and watered. We will be back. Great night at The Gate Inn.
