A wonderful cosy pub! Came here for the party in the car park and even tho the sky decided to open up on us the atmosphere was great! 😊 A very friendly crowd! The burgers were great, so juicy! And cheap! I heard they do a banging Sunday dinner so will be back to check it out 😉

Once again an exceptional meal and service, we were in restaurant which had quite a lot of children in and Jason moved us to different table in quieter area, very kind of him as was my husband's 70th birthday and appreciated not as much activity. Meal, steak pie was beautiful served by friendly staff, couldn't manage a dessert as stuffed. Can't recommend this pub enough

A little gem of a pub. Serves proper Sunday lunch without the fuss like your grandma would have made it. Everything fresh and cooked lovely and great sized portions. The evening meals are also excellent. I've had a variety of meals from there and all been solid 7 out of 10s. It is really good value for money, and I've enjoyed every meal. The reviews don't lie, it's reyt nice.

We've been wanting to come down the hill and try this place for over a year, as its on the doorstep, its been on our radar as a place we'd like to visit. Today we tried it and we left feeling SAD.... Sad that we didn't try it so much sooner! The food was cooked fresh, piping hot and tasty. For ages I've moaned we can't find a good traditional pub, with a traditional pub lunch and atmosphere. Everywhere feels so soulless with the same menu and all belonging to the same chains these days, so this place was like a breath of fresh air and captures all the nostalgia of how things used to be!! Each member of staff we spoke to was so nice too. They couldn't do enough for you. We will be back. In fact, we can't wait! Sad we can only score it 5 out of 5 when it's worth so much more couldnt find a single fault! It was getting busy and filling up fast while we were there so it's worth booking! Even on a Wednesday afternoon! Shows how successful this place is, they have got it perfect! Please don't change anything!!!

There is currently work being carried out in the car park, so finding somewhere to park was the first hurdle - ended up parking on the street. There was a long wait at the bar to get drinks, mainly due to there being a lot of people in the restaurant (that explains the busy half carpark 🤔). We had been asked to provide our meal options prior to visiting, but the serving staff didn't seem to be aware of this and handed out menus. Once the confusion was cleared up our food order was then served up in a reasonable timeframe and we all enjoyed our chosen meals. There was plenty of food on the plates and all at a reasonable cost (especially the OAP menu). The owners are lucky that we are a honest group of people as somehow it was thought that we had already paid - nope, just the food order was done before our visit. Yeah, some might think that we should have just paid what they asked for, but that wouldn't have rested well with us - it was a lovely meal and they deserve to be properly paid 👍. Would we go again? Of course we will.
