Visited for a drink with the wife on a Saturday night. Staff are welcoming and the pub is brightly lit with lots of nooks and crannies to sit in. Not eaten here, but will come back. Beers are almost ÂŁ1 a pint more expensive than other pubs in the area.

We booked a table for 4 on Easter Saturday. Shown to our table, ordered drinks, received the menu, great choice to suit anyone's taste all at great value. Placed our orders, The waitress was cheerful and jolly, our food orders soon arrived. Excellent service, lovely meals, great atmosphere and fantastic value. Looking forward to our next visit. Big thank you to all the staff.

We ha e been going to this pub for many years of late the tables are always reserved. When wanting just a drink we sat down at this table with reserved on it we were told we had to le e where we were sat as it was reserved. So I asked what time was it reserved for? She replied not for another hour so I argued why couldn't we sit there until the people came. Eventually we left and will not be returning. The prices are very high for the drinks but have Always continued to go.

Worst place Iv eaten. Booked table for 12 people on a Monday night waited hour and half to get starters. Very poor service. Got soup of the day which was supposed to be with freshly baked bread roll, but it was a slice of bread. Ordered steak and never asked how I’d like it.Will not return

It was my first time visiting here, it won't be my last. Impeccable service and gorgeous food. Our waitresses were so accommodating and attentive. We were there as a group of 20 and everything was perfect. I look forward to visiting again with my family.

The food is absolutely amazing! Think that we tried everything on the card already and there was no disappointment! Lovely staff always willing to help. The atmosphere of the place is very welcoming and cosy. Big recommendation.

Absolutely first class! Food was incredible and was great value for money. Chicken burger was fantastic! Staff were all lovely too. We will definitely be heading back again!

We recently visited for a family get together. The food was really nice although we did have quite a long wait.Most of the staff were very pleasant and helpful although we didn't appreciate being told by 'Savanna' that they table was needed back before we'd even had our pudding. She was quite rude and abrupt to be honest.

Went midweek for a birthday meal with the family very excited about the food as we had heard good things, arrived at 1815hrs on time for our booking where we were shown to our seats by the friendly staff and had drinks to our table straight away. Orders for starters and mains were put in straight away round about 1830 for the 8 of us 2 of which were children.The starters turned up around 45 minutes later which seemed quite a while considering it was a Monday evening and the place not being rammed out and the fact we had all ordered the same (mozzarella sticks) however they we’re nice.We then proceeded to wait for the mains which took almost an hour, the waitresses must have noticed our frustration of waiting and came to apologise for the delay of the chefs even though it wasn’t there fault they explained that there was only 2 chefs in the kitchen that particular night.Once the mains turned up we were all starving and were looking forward to our meals however on receiving them we were disappointed. My father and I had steak cooked medium which was very dry and burnt around the edges. My mother and fiancé had a gammon and leek pie, this was served smothered in what looked and tasted to be very salty beef gravy which completely ruined the pie, the kids had an adult sized chicken burger which was extremely charred to the point it was burnt, the kids aren’t fussy eaters however most of it was left over.The kids and my partner ordered a dessert last thing which did appear to look lovely and no complaints from anyone so that was a positive.Once the bill came we were shocked to see it to be £260 for 6 adults and 2 children… I am no stranger to a large bill and do not mind paying it when it is worth it but I thought this was very overcharged for pub food which took forever to come and was burnt… 3 pints of beer were also ordered while we were there and everyone else orders a soft drink so I couldn’t justify the bill in the sense of loads of beer and fancy cocktails.On the whole very disappointed after the good things we had heard don’t think we will be returning again in a hurry.

Good meal at a country-style pub with last minute availability. Chips were great, sizzler platters were okay with nice prawns and veggies but too much sauce tho.
