A regular in the Good Beer Guide in what appears to be a cask ale desert. Limited choice of guest ales but the pub has everything else you expect from a Spoons.

I usually come here for a breakfast with my husband. Its a cosy atmosphere. The service is very good, polite and friendly. The food is good but gets cold very quickly. Its not enough to stop me going for a wee brekkie though.

Popped in for a early dinner. Easy to find well positioned, only reason for a four star review and 3 star review is that the chef sent me a raw piece of pork. Otherwise was exactly what you expect. Prices are reasonable and bottomless coffee! And is Scottish style Haggis on the pizza.

Food and drinks very good value with a pleasant atmosphere. Well worth a visit or as we did several times for a beer & food.
