Reviews Overview

Most Liked

Guests frequently rave about the friendly atmosphere—staff members provide attentive service, making you feel right at home. The beer selection is another standout feature, and many locals appreciate the excellent cocktails crafted by skilled bartenders. Those visiting for lunch often compliment the portion sizes and quality, particularly praising the homemade dishes that taste just like home-cooked meals.

The outdoor beer garden adds another layer of enjoyment during sunny days, where families can relax while the kids play outside. Regular events, whether it's a live music night or karaoke, create a fun vibe that keeps the energy high. Many visitors relish the buffet options provided for special occasions, with offerings that accommodate various tastes.

Most Disliked

Some guests have mentioned that due to The Steelworks' popularity, especially on weekends, it can sometimes get overcrowded, particularly during peak dinner hours. Saturday evenings see an influx of diners, which may lead to longer wait times for food and service.

Additionally, during busier times, finding a table can be a challenge unless you have made a reservation in advance, especially for larger groups. Although the atmosphere is lively, some patrons prefer a quieter experience and find it a bit overwhelming, particularly on event nights.

Had my son's communion in the front beer garden and we all had a great day. The buffet was delicious and a good selection of hot and cold. The service was fantastic and everyone was happy to help with any requests. The weather was beautiful but was around 24degrees but staff had well prepared the beer garden with extra parasols to keep us all shaded. Would highly recommend 👌

Hired the private function room for the service after a funeral. The staff from day we made the booking made us feel we had made the correct choice choosing here. On the day, everyone commented on the quality of the food (top notch) and the friendliness of the staff. Will definitely recommend to everyone looking for a function to come here. Also, came for lunch and it was brilliant. Prices are good, portions are good too. Thanks again everyone for all you done from the family.

We enjoyed a lovely meal here tonight. It's a a Tuesday night in January, so it wasn't really busy,but there was a nice relaxed atmosphere inside and the staff made us feel very welcome indeed. They were very pleasant, friendly and professional and nothing was too much trouble. They were very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed to make our night the best it could be. The food was excellent and piping hot. We will definitely be back. Very well done guys. 👏👍❤️

The food is brilliant, great value menu. You can get a starter and a main for a tenner. Since Jack and the new team took over, the quality of the food has got so much better than before. Highly recommend this place. Lovely staff and very nice ambiance about the place.
