I really love this place. Lovely atmosphere - really welcoming. They always try hard to squeeze people in who haven't booked. The staff are all incredibly friendly and the food delicious. Good selection of beers too. Its dog-friendly - its always a treat to see/pet some nice neighbourhood hounds!

Very nice atmosphere and great management. We went there last Sunday without a booking and the manager -super friendly - got us a table. The staff was very playful with our baby so was a plus :)

Waking up on a Sunday morning in desperate need of hearty, honest food, a place that’s local and a place that allows dogs. This is THE SPOT!!The service was impeccable; incredibly friendly, knowledgable with the right balance of attentiveness and time to contemplate.I had the salmon and spinach en croûte which was delightful. The ability to cook the salmon perfectly, en-mass is FAB!! The selection of roasted veg with a generous but not overwhelming beurre blanc sauce was spot on. The pork loin roast with a lashings of gravy was praised highly by my partner.We tried the sticky toffee pud which is a personal fave along with the apple and pear crumble. I could take or leave the crumble. I am already planning my next visit simply based on the mains and sticky toffee pud. Highly recommend.One suggestion though, the only thing letting them down is the ladies’ loos, there was no light in one cubicle meaning I had to whip out the touch on my phone! Get that sorted and this is place perfect for Sunday vibing

Came here on the 29th for my sisters birthday lunch. Service was okay but I ordered the steak rare and when it came it was well done. I would have flagged but no one came to check on how we were doing. Then we were given a dessert menu but no one came to take our order… then when we flagged someone down we were told the kitchen was closed? They kindly did get us some desserts but we were told the chef was very grumpy about it. Just lots of room for improvement really. In fairness it was busy but the meal wasn’t cheap.

Omd!! The food is just amazing! The flavours that were on offer in this place were just too good to be true. The savory starters particularly and of course the sticky toffee pudding was exceptional. Might I add the biscuit that accompanied the creme Brulee... bellisimo!

·

Really lovely food and service and the portion sizes were just right. The pear Bellini was lovely too. The Yorkshire puddings were a little overdone.

Absolute gem of a local gastro pub. Location is great, and the staff and owners are fantastic. A great variety of drink options, and the food is always reliably delicious, and well presented. Nothing not to like about this pub. Always a good experience.

Fantastic food and wonderful service. The roast was great: both the rare roast beef and the sea bass option. The scotch egg was also delicious as was the sticky toffee pudding. The kids rigatoni and cheese sauce was tasty and they serve kid portions of roast (half adult portion) if you have small ones.We had a minor issue (small piece of plastic in a scoop of ice cream) which the manager quickly addressed; she even comped our dessert despite telling her we understand mistakes happen.

We've been in this place after covid and everytime was absolutely busy. This time, was after dinner, late night and we found a seat inside on the sofa. Staff is lovely(except for the guy that serves me at the bar, twisting a Guinnes with a straw, then he overcharge me and I've been insulted that i was maybe too drunk to drink instead of apologise but anyway, Idid cause im a manager in a pub too so I know what kindness mean and how to behave, i guess... ). Except for that, loved the atmosphere here and food is amazing. Not sure about the way you've been treat by some of the staff or owner 😅

Nice place,always very busy on weekends, kid-friendly :) which is really nice and have the restaurant area separated from pub-bar area. Food quiet cheap and tasty, drinks also good priced. Few different selections of ciders(not the usual pub ones) mostly UK originated, like the atmosphere and vibe.
