Well I for one  was pleased to see the back of Gemma and co, and I had hi hopes for the new management change, but once again The Saxon is well below par, the food is awful, the beer is expensive, the new managers can be unfriendly, and rude. I would not recommend this pub even if it is my local.

Thank god there's been a change of management, so refreshing looks like the new gaffers have TLC and passion for the pub. Great staff, menu is super and of course beers served to the correct temperature, loving every nite out there come and join me and my friends for a relaxing nite out

I was invited in here for a drink by one of the regulars. I have never been in such a dismal unfriendly pub. The locals do what they like, foul language and unruly youths. Can't comment on food as didn't want to stay long enough to eat. When will the landlords take control?

Many happy if not drunken memories, those of you moaning about the landlord obviously didn't drink in there when Don was the gaffer, he was so miserable he was funny, see you all again one day lads.

I wouldn't give the Saxon 1 star, it has the worst atmosphere, staff food everything. it used to be such a wonderful friendly place to go for a drink and a meal, but since the renewal of management the place has hit rock bottom. change the management and BRING BACK THE LOCALS.

Great food and good beers.  Many have said that they don't use the Saxon because they don't want their women and children to listen to the always present crowd of foul-mouthed individuals

Used to be a great local pub with warm atmosphere.
What went wrong! Its so cold, and no customers. All the Saxon regulars were so disgusted they have all moved to the Bulls Head with welcoming management !!!! What are the brewery thinking of ?

Wonderful Sunday Lunch - large group all catered for. Food excellent - couldn't have been more friendly. Setting light, airy and clean. Service 10/10. I believe Landlady/Lord are Gerry and Malcolm. You have to speak to people to get people to speak back Sandra.

Nice pub. Its your typical local, if your a new face there can be a bit of an atmosphere.

I am sorry but I have to disagree with Stuart here. Maybe a decent meal-but not a friendly atmosphere-does anyone know who the Landlord and Landlady are?

Its the best place I have ever eaten! The chef and barmen are amazing 5 stars.
Stuart (could be ever so slightly biased!!)
