Heron On The Ford

Nice place, visited to meet up with a bunch of cyclists at a lunchtime meet. Snack lunch (very tasty) was roast beef panini. Very nice, but the beef needs to be cut up more finely, or get yourself razor sharp dentures! It was very nice but perhaps a steak knife would improve the situation. Go for it, but find a sharp knife!

I have been coming to Heron on The Ford for many years, as it’s my local & it’s situated in a beautiful location right by a Ford. We always walk to the pub as it’s only 15minutes away. Great for kids to use their chosen mode of transport for the short distance as the roads around the pub location is fairly quite. Heron on the Ford has plenty of free parking to the rear as well as to the front. The rear parking area is gated with access only during opening hours. The pub upgraded the seating area to the rear including an added play area for the kids just over a year ago which makes this a key visit for me during the summer. Nothing beats a nice cold beer outside in the sunshine with the little ones happily playing along in the gated playground 👌 The inside is has a cosy and relaxed atmosphere with very nice touch to the decor. The food is brilliant, quick service and tastes lovely. The change of hands a few years ago has defiantly made an impact to quality of food served Good clean facilities also. Highly recommend a visit as after the food and drink a nice walk to the Ford to watch any brave drivers spear through the stream is always fun to watch.

There's little better than being sat outside in the beautiful garden at the Heron on The Ford on a sunny day - improved only by ordering some of their lovely food. I had their delicious "Beyond" burger - and, unlike many veggie burgers, it really didn't leave you feeling short changed. Great bar service. A lovely local pub.

I messaged in advance asking for a change to their menu as I have a lot of food allergies and they were so accommodating and helpful, the food was absolutely AMAZING! great atmosphere and a lovely spot to spend a late summers evening. Thank you so much for accommodating our allergies, it was so lovely to be able to join my husband (which I can’t usually) to celebrate his birthday. We will definitely be back! 😊

We were visiting friends and they took us for a spot of lunch. Lovely quaint feel to the place. We were lucky to visit on a sunny day so sat outside at one of the many outdoor tables. Decent choice of food and there was a good range of gluten free options if thats a must. Food was very tasty and was served quickly. Didnt see much of the inside but it struck me as the type of place that had that lovely cosy feel when the weather takes a turn. Dog friendly and plenty of parking. Definitely worthy of a visit.

Been trying to get here to try the food for a while and finally made it this weekend for lunch on Saturday. Really nice atmosphere and friendly welcome, normal menu had plenty of choice but the specials menu was really good. The smoked salmon scotch egg was amazing!! Had a really lovely meal for two, service was good and for a good price. Will definitely be back to try more dishes.

Loved this pub, great location and lots of tables inside and out. It is a very old building and kept so well to bring out the old charm it has. The staff were very friendly and there was a well stocked bar. We didn't eat but many people were which shows its good! It doesn't have a massive car park and definitely caters for dog walkers with bowls of water outside.
