Visited yesterday, it's such a shame this pub is so run down, would have great potential as its the only pub in the village.

·

This pub is a real hit and miss. We want to use it more but have been in various occasions for food and they are not serving. This is frustrating as we want a nice reliable food location locally. I appreciate it’s often due to health issues but never less a real shame.

Decent local pub,friendly barman.

1st time visit thoroughly enjoyed it a friendly welcoming atmosphere will definitely be back.

·

Went into this place hoping to get some good. The friendly man behind the bar informed me that they no longer serve food. The place did look somewhat tired so it was a relief to be able to leave without causing offence. It looked in need of some love and invested.

Lovely place, good food, very friendly staff

Went to this pub for the first time last night and I was really impressed. Walk in the door and to the right you've got the proper pub atmosphere where you'd sit as a local for a pint or two. If you go to the right, there is a nice seating area with a bar, really nicely decorated in fresh lime green. A comfortable area to sit whilst waiting for your meal to be ready. There is a room of of here with a pool table and then off that the beautiful conservatory. Really well decorated in pale green and shabby chic. There is a wide selection of drinks, spirits, wines, ales. And the food was lovely. Really good portion sizes not too much not too little. All came out piping hot. Overall really impressed, would highly recommend :)

Several times we have enquired whether the pub is serving food and have been told No because Paula is ill. On one occasion they said “No we are not serving food today as Paula has diarrhoea and cannot be near food” it was a bit too much information but even so maybe a relief chef would allow consistency. We went another time as a big group of 8 and table was booked for 7:30 but didn’t actually sit down until 8:30 and we had children. When food was served coleslaw was missing and steak knife was missing.The conservatory area was cold I recall on another occasion when we had a roast there which made food go cold quick.It’s not a place I could rely on whole heartedly for food because in my experience it has been so unpredictable.

Very friendly staff, had excellent lunch in garden, which has loads of entertaining toys to keep kids happy, they have bands n body shop parties. Our food certainly wasn't reheated and it was quick. Come here if your passing you won't be disappointed

A delightfull pub, warm and welcoming with the most interesting decor, and conservatory dinning area. Really up-market buffet served to our party, tasty and attractive snacks, sandwiches and cup cakes, a lovely place to stop.Menu detailed bespoke burgers with crab and lobster! Must come back to sample these!
