    NEW OWNERS doing a great job.
    Now has NEW OWNERS who are improoving the pub/restraunt. New opening times coming as well as menus. Not got a full time chef yet but hopefully that will be resolved soon, still do bar food 6-9pm but it is limited at the moment. This pub has been our local for a few years and its great to see the new owners improoving it after only two weeks and more improovments to come.

    Great lunch & a great local pub
    Dropped in for a fabulous lunch today. Both my husband & I had the steak & ale pie, chips & veg. Good portions & it was delicious, steak was lovely & tender. We had a desert of chocolate torte with proper pouring cream. Yummy!! Finished our lunchtime meal with a Penderyn whisky & coffee liqueur. I can recommend The Aleppo Merchant Inn its a great local pub.

    Super service!
    Popped in for an evening meal. We had only just arrived in the area for a long weekend break and had passed The Aleppo on the way. Lovely staff, quick service and good food. Couldn’t ask for more. Calamari starter was impeccably cooked!

    Good
    Went to our local pub for an evening meal. Last time it was appalling but it has changed hands now. It was a little pricey but we had the squid with garlic aoli for starters. It was delicious, very garlicky. Next we had the steak, I had the sirloin and my husband had the fillet. Cooked to how we liked it and my husband had the peppercorn sauce. My husband is awkward about his sauce but he loved it. Freshly made and not from a packet! Onion rings were not from a frozen packet either they were lovely. Chips and peas are the same everywhere. Next was the desert. Sticky toffee pudding with toffee sauce and ice cream. The service was a bit slow and we had to ask for steak knives but other than that it was good. Would we go back again? Yes we would.

Disappointing meal, took the opportunity to have an evening out for a meal. The room next to the restaurant was was very loud and intimidating. I asked what was the vegetarian option was and told a bean burger which I was delighted about as I don’t like the fake meat. When the food arrived (after almost an hour) the burger was not a bean burger, it wasn’t nice at all. A polite waitress asked if I wanted a bean burger, I said not to worry as I didn’t want to wait another hour but she said 20 minutes and we wouldn’t have to pay for it . When the bean burger arrived it was nice, the salsa was lovely and my partner was really happy with his steak. We had some drinks which there was a good selection of. However when we left and read the receipt we were charged for the veg burger, we are disappointed and wouldn’t recommend.

Shocking service. We had been told by my parents that the pub looked closed so we rang to double check before arriving that they were definitely open they said yes just for b&b. When we arrived everywhere was all locked up, rang the doorbell no answer, rang the phone numerous times we sat and waited 1hr still no one about. We then decided to go for a walk half an hr into the walk we phoned again and they answered to say they were there no form of apology for us waiting around 1.5 hrs. When we finally got inside the pub was untidy ironing board and iron in middle of the pub.The room was basic not worth the prices really. We had breakfast bought upto us in the morning and the best thing about it was the pure orange. Unlikely to stay again unless desperate, very desperate at that.

Walked in and waited by the bar in the hope of getting a table for food. Three members of staff glared at us and not one came over to offer us anything. They didn’t even acknowledge us. We waited for 10 minutes, felt really unwelcome and left to find somewhere else. Courtesy costs nothing.

Ideally located on the main road through the village, ample parking and easily spotted. The menu was a little limited but nevertheless what was available was quite tasty. Service friendly although perhaps it could have been a bit speedier.

No frills, no fuss just good old fashioned fry up, it just hits the spot every time. We went for the full Aleppo breakfast and it’s just everything you want in a fry up 👍🏼.

Friendly landlord & staff. Excellent food & so very reasonable priced (cheap to this city dweller)- can recommend the Aleppo Burger, fabulous! Drinks seemed cheap to us, with a three course meal for 2, with drinks & wine £58!
