The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeWe have eaten at the Wheatsheaf a couple of times recently, after a long absence due to a poor experience in the past. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the renovations, and the friendly welcome we received. There was a nice ambiance, with candles on the tables, and the service was friendly and relaxed. I recently had the battered plaice and chips, which was very tasty, and a generous portion, while my wife was very complementary about her roast dinner. The pale ale was good, but I thought overpriced at £6.50 a pint! On the whole, a very pleasant evening.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeWe stayed one night and had an evening meal and breakfast. The food was amazing and the choice at breakfast was brilliant - you don't often see avacado on toast with poached eggs as an alternative. The lentil curry with rice at night was the nicest I've ever had. We had stayed in two other hotels in the north west on previous nights and this was the best for food by far.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeGreat pub / hotel. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cosy and warm and the staff were very attentive and helpful.

Very happy and would stay there again.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeLovely welcome, great service interesting decor but….. The soup was fine The battered fish special was skin on ( no warning on the menu) The crumble was solid and soggy with little fruit The coffee was fine Good range of non Alcoholic beers The cost would have been fine if the food had been better.

The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeFood was amazing my husband had the Haggis l had the Place. Generous portions and all freshly made. Be back soon.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeUnfortunately not as good as our springtime visit. The main man behind the bar was missing, don't know whether he's left, but he was an extremely good host. I'd ordered the ham Sunday roast but the meat was dry. I was given another piece when I complained which was tender and tasty. We tried to order desserts by attracting the staff but the menu wasn't forthcoming. A gentleman from another table also asked on our behalf. Eventually we ordered and the steam pudding and custard was good. I'd recommended the place last time to friends but I probably won't this time.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeHad a scrummy meal on Saturday. There were 5 of us in the party and we all had something different. I had the Venison , it was so tender. Fab service, lovely wine and delicious food. Definitely go back again.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeVery disappointing experience indeed. The dinner was of poor quality. I chose the haggis and was served with a small mound of mashed vegetables topped with some greasy and tasteless minced beef. There were no fresh vegetables to accompany this offering which cost nearly £14. My partner had the fish and chips and was not impressed. The dessert was Affogato which is difficult to ruin but, again, was a miniscule portion, the espresso was only lukewarm and this cost over £6. The staff were friendly and the service was good but, because of the poor quality of the food, we won't be returning.

The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeStayed on the Sunday Special, good value at £109 for dinner bed and breakfast. Quaint village in the countryside despite being minutes from a busy road. Very dog friendly.
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeFriendly and attentive staff Food was tasty and well presented at dinner Breakfast was very good, porridge and granola large portions and good quality Poached eggs and haddock was good You can always pick holes in any F&B experience but the Wheatsheaf for a small pub in a rural area where staff are not plentiful was very good
The Wheatsheaf at Beetham – MilnthorpeWe were staying at the hotel so booked dinner as well. The restaurant was really busy for mid-week - a very good sign. Not a lot of choice so I chose steak and pepper pie which was brilliant with loads of separate gravy - and this from someone who NEVER eats pies nor gravy. My husband's gammon and eggs was not as good as some he's had but ok. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was not as good. Tea was cold, toast a bit hard, cooked breakfasts took a long time arriving, sausage with the full English was a cheap and unpleasant one, not up to the standard of a not-cheap hotel.
