For value, quality and making us feel welcome, we love it here.
We moved to the area in July 2017 and started visiting the Doghouse almost immediately, taking our (then) 4 month old baby with us. He’s now 13 months and the staff are as wonderful and engaging with him (and us) as they were then - making time to chat and play (pretty sure he’s a little bit in love with Emily and Jade in particular). The stairs at the entrance may not be ideal, but we’ve felt they are worth the slight inconvenience. The refurbishments have come on a great deal - we can’t wait to see the finished look.
Being a (slightly stereotypical) northern last, on our first visit I asked for a Newcastle Brown Ale (which like most Southern pubs, they didn’t stock), but like a good local they offered to order it in - sure enough it was there the next week and has been pretty much every week since.
We regularly end up ordering food (even when we’ve just nipped in for a quick drink) - whilst there is usually a bit of a wait, we’ve always found it to be worth it (my personal fave is the steak and ale shortcrust pie).
Like most pubs, the experience you have is significantly impacted by the time/day you visit. We enjoy the relative hubbub of a friday/saturday evening- enough noise to have a private conversation, but not too much to force you to shout at each other the whole night. The locals are lovely and will have a bit of banter with us (and don’t cast judgmental looks our way if we’re still in with the baby past 9pm). We particularly enjoy it when the landlord’s in and has control of the play list.
It may not be everybody’s cup of tea whilst the renovations are taking place, but we’ve enjoyed getting to know the staff and love that we’re getting to see the changes first hand. We’re proud to support our local and look forward to seeing it develop.
Absolutely fabulous 20 people out for birthday meal welcoming and great service lovely waitresses fantastic food real home cooking couldn't have done enough for us will definitely be back and definitely recommend wonderful
We want to thank all the staff for making our Sunday dinner experience so much easier for us. Our mum has dementia, being so young most people don’t assume she is ill with it, and people can often find her behaviour offensive and it can be difficult to even go out for dinner. However the staff today helped make our experience so easy and they couldn’t do enough. We want to give a special mention to Jack, his kindness and friendly nature with our mum gave us so much support and enabled us to enjoy a meal out all together.
Thank you Jack.
We booked a table for the first time here for six adults, two kids and a high chair, on a busy bank holiday Sunday. After a quick change around of the tables by the helpful staff, we sat down and had drinks. We did wait a good while for our food, as it was very busy, but it was well worth the wait. Piping hot roast dinners, lots of meat, lots of gravy with each meal, plenty of veg, and the huge table share Yorkshire puddings were fab too. The food was great, the service was great, the staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. Kids area is secure, with enough to occupy them for a while. Would definately recommend for a family meal, and we will be visiting again
Food was good, good sized portions! Very good value for money. Service was decent, we sent back a dish as it wasn't right and the new dish was delivered within minutes. Can't fault!
A great local pub, always found the staff friendly and attentive, the Sunday roasts are great! Highly recommend kids love the play area and in good location from the out door seating, out door bar is a nice touch as well
Lovely local pub. Staff friendly and the roast was pretty nice! Would visit again. Thank you.
Lovely local pub to us, living on the development. The staff are ALWAYS friendly and we always feel welcome, lovely roast dinner nice and hot and lots of it. It’s always nice to support local businesses. It’s so nice to having a local pub within walking distance 😊
Such a lovely pub had such a lovely time, Waitress Grace was amazing serving our table so happy with a big smile - that always goes a long way.
Great when the outdoor bar is open, quite a small indoor bar so have always had a little wait for drinks, but worth it nice beer garden nice pint
Well wow wow wow. Me, my partner and daughter had a lovely roast dinner here and it has to be one of the best roast dinners I've had.
