The Star - HARROW

We arrived a bit early but our table was already prepared. Good quality crackers! It was a surprise to find there was live music, and the pub was beautifully decorated. The service was VERY efficient, friendly and seamless, THANK YOU. The food was delicious, and served well timed. A few room for improvement comments there seemed to be a mix up with how many deserts had been ordered ie only one desert....and despite only one being served, 2 appeared on the bill! Also the mince pie served had part of the pastry missing. This was pointed out but the mince pie was not replaced, for a complete one.....hence the food not getting Outstanding . And the pub had run out of NZ Sauvignon blanc, but the House white was very drinkable! Music did get louder at one point which made it very difficult for us to talk!! But over all we had a great time, and would definitely recommend and go again. Thanks to all the staff and the chef!

Great atmosphere in The Star. Food was excellent too.

Excellent sunday roast, good variety of trimmings, nothing microwaved, all fresh and piping hit, good portions. Excellent service. We will be back. Only quibble was music bit loud maybe have it turned down in some sections of pub. Other than that, great!

Visited on Saturday for dinner. Ordered hamburger platter. Food, service and atmosphere were fine. Booked a 6pm reservation for Sunday (Father’s Day). Arrived at 6pm, seated promptly, ordered drinks, starter main course. Drinks were severed promptly and that’s when our experience went down hill. Inquired a few times regarding starter, 45 minutes later starter was delivered. Spoke with manager regarding our main course, was told waitress was new (however, she did write down our order correctly) unfortunately it did not come out correctly (main was ordered without gravy and cooked medium). It came well done covered with gravy. Ordered desert which never arrived. I know it was Father’s Day, however the restaurant was not even 1/2 occupied and we spoke with manager regarding our issues with starter, main and inexperienced waitress and still had issues.

From time to time we eat at this local pub. So far always found the food excellent and lots of dishes to choose from. The staff are very friendly and makes you very welcome. I trust that they will continue with these high standards.
