About The Dabbling Duck
The Dabbling Duck pub was opened in 2006 as the result of a tireless community action group and a far-sighted local authority's 6 year campaign to prevent the beautiful old building (previously the Rose and Crown pub) from being converted into housing.
The Dabbling Duck now plays a vital part in the heart of the local community and is a focal point for the village. The owners regularly eat and drink at the pub with their friends and colleagues.
Afternoon Tea is served daily 15.00 - 17.00

A great relaxing stay, charming Inn, lovely dinner and breakfast, outstanding location and professional staff.
We were quite disappointed generally with food and service. We were ignored by staff when we first arrived then “told off” for waiting in the wrong area to be seated! The same waitress continued to be brusque throughout the evening. The soup was so salty it was inedible which we pointed out but got no apology and to describe a dish as hake and then receive the smallest piece of said fish I have ever seen is unacceptable. The only member of our party who enjoyed it was the dog who loved his own menu
Food was really good and atmosphere was really good my only small gripe was there was little to no pulled pork on the dirty fries
Excellent Service and Food.
Not as good as our last visit. Waited over 40mins for our starters, on a quiet Monday lunchtime. But will return.
Went to The Dabbling Duck for a birthday meal. Food was excellent and staff very helpful. Highly recommend for any occasion.
As hoped the food was excellent, a really interesting menu cooked to a high standard. Service was good but you could tell the team were busy with a wedding on that evening as well, meaning they did look as if energy levels were running low as the evening went on. The one slight niggle, which isn't the fault of the pub, more the people in it. Despite there being ample comfy seating empty, large groups seemed to congregate around the bar, meaning it took a good 10+ minutes just for me to pay our restaurant bill, which detracted a little. The food, surroundings and the politeness of staff was exemplary however!
Thought enjoyed our meal. Service excellent. Lovely atmosphere.
Varied menu, local produce great food brilliant service.
Very good well presented food. The curry we had was a lot larger than we were expecting but was excellent value for money. Recommend you are feeling very hungry before you start as you might not find room for another course. We certainly felt well fed.
Delicious food and enjoyed perusing the classic books.
We certainly enjoyed our meal and the service was excellent. We also thought it was good value. For us we did find the pub noisy and because we were seated next to the door to the garden this was a considerable disturbance to my husband who did get knocked into several times by passing customers. Despite raising these points we would come again but would ask to be seated in a different place.
Third visit and there will not be a fourth Felt unwelcome and the atmosphere wasn’t good
Beautiful pub and the meal was amazing, definitely will be back!
Ate here as part of our stay. Great menu selection, great food, excellent service. Thoroughly recommend this place.
Good atmosphere with a nice ambience
Lovely surroundings great food.
Very friendly and welcoming, good atmosphere. Service and food were excellent.
Great meal but really missed the crayfish pohboy
Staff very welcoming, food and service excellent.
A great dining experience never fails to disappoint
The food was outstanding, so beautifully presented and delicious. Rice pudding a bit sweet would be the only negative.
Beautiful pub with lovely friendly staff. Food was beautifully presented and tasted even better.
We found there to be great customer service and the staff were very helpful however we felt that the variety of meals available wasn’t great and would have liked to have seen more. Will visit again to experience the barn street food.
Excellent roast beef!! One of the best I’ve ever had. Good service from the gentleman who showed us to the table but quite a harshly spoken, unfriendly waitress who took our order.
