| Went with a group of friends having been previously and rated it very highly. Again, food was excellent and staff were friendly. However, on this occasion, although the pub was not overly busy (acknowledging that there was a table of 12 people just ahead of us) the wait for food was over long. We also had to ask in the end for someone to come and take our sweet order and when we wished to order more drinks. The wait was not particularly a problem as we enjoyed each others company but from sitting down at our table to leaving was three hours which we felt was too long. Having said that the quality of food was so good that I shall go back and hopefully this was just a blip. [Report for Removal] | P Fielding Rugeley Staffs |

| I have been 6 times to the New Talbot to eat now, and everything was great, I took 8 of us for sunday lunch last week, from a 5yr old to a o.a.p. and it was great for all of us, we also had a special needs child with us asked when we booked if we could sit in a certain place to help us , this was done, the staff couldn't have been kinder or more pleasant, so once again thanks to all of you at The New Talbot.

| We booked a table in advance, having heard how good the restaurant was.Arriving early we orderd drinks and sat in the comfortable bar area for a short time untill being taken to our table. The menu was wide and varied and the wine was very reasonably priced. The food thoughout all three courses was of the highest standard and the service was excellant . I would have no hesitation in reccommending The Talbot Inn to all my friends and work colleagues. [Report for Removal] | Glenn Sweeney Rugeley Staffordshire |

| My uncle and aunt ran this pub for many years before retiring in 1989. During their time it was widely regarded as one of the best pubs in the area. In the last 20 years it has remained my local but has had a series of landlords, none lasting more than a couple of years and ranging from just about OK to downright useless. The last 3 years have seen the pub fall into a state of disrepair both while open and closed. Since it's recent reopening the Talbot has been completely transformed and is superb. it's no longer a 'drinkers' pub but is smart, comfortable the food superb, drink reasonably priced and a great place to eat or just relax. I go in most nights after work to enjoy a pint and read the paper in comfort. David and Clive have come up with the winning formulae again and must be commended. It's not the pub to go to if you want to watch the football, listen to music or play pool but we've a few of those in the area. Brereton / Rugeley has got a quality pub ' restaurant which is already proving to be a huge success.[Report for Removal] | Paul Mobberley Rugeley Staffs |

| I have just read a report by a L Chivers I can't believe we are talking about the same pub. my experience was the complete opposite, I can't fault anyything , from cleanliness, food service, real ale, everything was exellent, the Landlord was so friendly and we didn't wait for very long considering the pub was full, are we talking about the same pub ???[Report for Removal] | Janette Dean Rugeley Staffs |

| I have visted the New Talbot 4 times now since it opened, I think that speaks for itself. I have been with family (large and small parties) and with a group of friends and have not heard a single complaint from anyone, in fact quite the reverse. the waitresses were excellent and had a good sense of humour, just as well when you take a party of friends!On one occassion we got the table numbers wrong and even though they were full they were great and managed to shuffle things around to acccommadate us. I would recommend them -and have-to anyone who wants to eat out in Rugeley[Report for Removal] | Jane Mason Rugeley Staffs |

| Food was very good if you want to put up with rudeness and bad service. Landlord was rude to us when we arrived. Waited 30mins for table. Person who sat us down was rude. Waited ages to be served. Was over an hour before our food arrived! No-one asked us if it was ok. No-one asked us if we wanted a sweet. Went to bar to pay as we didn't have another hour to wait for bill. Wouldn't go again.[Report for Removal] | Lorna Chivers Rugeley Staffs |
