We had our Aerobics Christmas lunch there yesterday 5th December.The landlord and his assistant were excellent serving 35 women with a welcoming smile and the room, they had laid out looked lovely, very festive!!!The food was excellent freshly cooked vegetables and turkey dinners plus other choices and reasonably priced too.The staff were very friendly and looked after us so well.This is by far the best Christmas celebration we have had as a group (and we have had many).I am sure we will be using their services for our next Christmas meal!!!!!!The parking space was huge and we were relieved not to be watching the clock for parking meters, as we have done in the past.We enjoyed a thoroughly good meal with excellent attentive staff, fantasticly cooked fresh food, perfect parking spaces for all of us, it will be our go to place again in the future.Thank you to the two wonderful staff that worked so hard to make our Festive meal so great , and not forgetting the chef who did a wonderful job feeding 35 hungry women!!!!!!

Pre-booked for my son’s 7th birthday a table of 9 of us. Super clean. Kind, attentive staff and the food was delicious. Majority of my party had steak and they were perfectly cooked. We will all be returning x

Fancied a decent pint and reasonably priced meal on a weekday eve so decided to try the Bystander. Very glad we did! The pub was clean and spacious. The staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. The cask beer was very well kept and they give 10% discount for CAMRA members so that wa a real bonus. The food was very good value for money, especially the chicken salad which was beautifully presented and a very generous portion size. Thanks very much to all the team..We'll be back soon!

Went to go in for food was told in quite a rude tone that food wasn't till 12 but we at first decided to stay and wait as we went to sit down we were 15cm away from the dining area with new born baby in pram and told in rude tone of voice well you can't sit there ..... we left and went else where glad we did not to far away. The staff were much nicer

Sunday was the first time in 7 years my husband and I have eaten in the Bystander, this was mainly due to awful food and customer service in the past years.The current team under the new management of Sean, are a breath of fresh air, the food and service was outstanding.The professionalism and customer service and along with the food was commendable. Well done guys, we will certainly eat at the Bystander again.
