We had a couple of meals here whilst staying in Lucker. As always the food was perfect, absolutely gorgeous. Thanks to all the wonderful staff for making us so welcome, they are always so happy and friendly, even when they are rushed off their feet.

Lovely

Enjoyed a lunch and a breakfast at this stylish gastropub. Both were very good. Friendly service. Can’t comment on ambience as it was the middle of a cold January and we were the only customers. The Apple is not a traditional village pub, it is more like a restaurant which might not be to some people’s taste. On both occasions the ‘background’ music was too loud.


Response From TI on 19 Jan 2025
Thank you for your review and for choosing to dine at The Apple Inn. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your meals and received friendly service. We apologize for the loud background music and will take your feedback into consideration. We hope to see you again soon.
