Star Inn Willerby

Went for tea last night, glad we booked via the app as all tables reserved. I ordered the Cajun chicken and chips and my partner ordered the infamous steak pie. This did not disappoint. Great portion size and very tasty. Biggest onion rings I’ve ever seen! Could have been cooked just a little longer. Great atmosphere and accommodating staff. Highly recommend and will certainly be back again

What’s happened to your home cooked food? Been coming here for years and always look forward to it. We ordered the famous beefsteak pie,one with “chips” and the other with veg,one with veg was sent back,it had hardly any pastry covering it and was awful to taste. Mine wasn’t much better but I stuck with it,the chips seemed like old chopped up roast potatoes fried up. The pie was also bland and tasteless with little or no mushroom,the peas shrivelled up and hardly any gravy. Do you not have a chef anymore? Is someone cooking whos not done it before? Your fresh home cooked food used to be the best ever! Everything I saw coming out of the kitchen was deep fried stuff which looked ok , but anyone can do that . Your waiting staff are lovely and attentive and really look after you so how must they feel with complaints? Anyway won’t be back,plenty of other places,shame really.

Lovely greeting at the bar as soon as we walked in from friendly staff Very busy all tables booked but we only wanted to eat and go so we were able to sit at a table booked for later on in night We ordered straight away The food came very quickly reasonably priced Food was all homemade very very good quality and super big portions which we liked We Highly recommend The Star in Willerby

Weve been using the Star for more years than we want Avto admit over 40 anyway. Food has been great, then suffered as managers changed. Recently its been good at times, but can suffer from lack of service at times. Young girls are always pleasant but not always the most attentive. I wanted to recommend a couple of the dishes though especially the Spare Ribs which is a superbly presented full rack, with the bones sticking out with plenty of succulent meat left and a delicious sauce. Not many vegetables though (not even enough to tell what they were! and the 'chips ' urgently need attention (see picture . My wife had the Medallions of Beef Diane which were are fine be sure to ask for an appropriate sauce though and don 't have the white wine sauce that the menu suggests ! The Wainwrights bitter is perfect though and the house Shiraz is pure Aussie sunshine in a glass!

We have used the Star now for several lunches recently and compared to other pub grub experiences, the Star easily outshines its competitors as the staff are excellent, helpful, polite and the grub is more gourmet quality: delicious, fresh (no frozen ready meals here) and ever so tasty and good value for money. The four of us tucked into: leg of lamb shank, meat/ale pie, scampi and hunters chicken and there wasn 't a morsel left afterwards. We all agreed the price was great too even after drinks and a coffee dessert, the final price wasn 't much more than you 'd pay for an average pub experience so why not try the Star for a stellar experience big thumbs up to the chef and front of house/waitress team.
