Brilliant old pub, well worth a visit to meet owners Peter and Leslie who are absolutely spot on and cant do enough for you, along with the very interesting decor inside
Try not to pass over this little gem, you won't be disappointed
Great pub, great landlord, great car park.
Nice bar staff love the pictures and other things around the pub will defo come back
5* Sunday lunch, was asked if we had enough of everything, Asked for extra veg and this was provided. Good choice of meats. Great selection of starters and sweets! Staff are all lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The only downsides are that regulars book week after week and sometimes it's difficult to get a table, which speaks for it's self really! And that they are not open for food more often!
Excellent home cooked food, including proper home made chips. Service good, with friendly staff. There are two areas, ones like a farmhouse living room, individuals chairs and open fire, the other like a farmhouse dining room, again with an open fire.
Food appears locally sourced, the only downside is if you're a veggie, Egg & Chips was the only option on the menu.
They have a good selection of real ales........its the sort of pub, that if you went for a beer, would end up having more one :).
Always a fun place to be, great prices on drinks and fantastic welcoming service. Most definitely worth a visit or two 😀
Great pub with live music. Didn't eat there. Good selection of beers.
An absolute gem!
Thursday lunch at the Comet was excellent - generous portion of white, moist cod with a light crisp batter , homemade chips and a heart shaped (nice touch) bowl of mushy peas. Fish and chips wouldn't be the same without 'em. Finished off with crumble and custard. Home cooking at its best with a warm welcoming atmosphere.
Brought our friends from Newcastle here for a meal on Fri 14th Sept, when we arrived we were told it was fully booked, so we asked if it was ok for us to just have a drink, the landlady was very nice and welcomed us in, it has a very pleasant atmosphere when you first go in, the landlady came over to us 10 minutes later and said she had found us a table, we were very grateful. My friend and I had the Rib Eye steaks and the wife’s had the Lasagna, steaks were cooked to perfections and the lasagnas were beautiful, the service was excellent especially from Faye the waitress who couldn’t do enough for us. Overall a very friendly and welcoming country pub, we will definitely be returning, oh and Faye we owe you a big tip. Thank you
Brilliant pub, good beer, nice atmosphere and fantastic decor.
