Went in with some mates yesterday got a sea bass off the specials menu and some garlic king prawns was class like, bit pricy but was all fresh and tasty so was worth it, never normally do reviews but was worth the shout �

Went with my friend today and the food was amazing! I'm a Chef and very picky about food but this place 5* all the way! Will definitely be bringing Hubby when he's home from working away! Lovely staff too and a lovely decor/design ( My Hubby renovates Bars and Hotels for a Living as a Joiner) Cannot wait to show him this place honestly! 100% Will be back!

Gorgeous Sunday lunch here. Nice welcome. Nicely refurbished, very impressed. Ladies toilets clean and modernised to an elegant design. Food very good. Have had the steak baguette in the past several times, which is such a treat and wd also recommend. On this occasion, we had the roast beef Sunday lunch £13.95, very tender beef and with a big Yorkshire pudding, lots of vegetables and sauces and an extra gravy jug offered to us. Service was good, didn't wait very long. Nice friendly staff. Families and couples alike, all ages. Also people enjoyed the sunshine with a drink outside too, although it's a car park, there's a nice decking area. I have to add .. superb sticky toffee pudding, melt in your mouth kind and not a shy portion. Yum 😋 xxx will be back soon for sure.

Unreal food here, every time. We order so often staff have started to call us “garlic man” 🤣. Our favourite is the minted lamb baguette served with hand cut chips which the restaurant serves every Sunday. Unreal food, hearty portion and so tasty, it has you coming back repeatedly… for the garlic too! 🤣

I visited here for the first time today with my mother & uncle for lunch and a catch up. Before we left the house, my uncle advised to call ahead to make sure there was a table free - luckily the woman who answered the phone reserved a table for us. Which turned out great as not long after our arrival, the place was heaving! It’s obviously VERY popular and I can certainly see why. There’s parking at the back with plenty of spaces - but be mindful, many guests on our visit clearly didn’t know how to park within the lines, meaning bigger cars struggled to get a space! The place inside is great - plenty of seats without being overcrowded, along with some lovely little booth seating dotted around. There’s different areas to sit in which breaks it up nicely. You give your drink and food orders at the bar which can take a little time when it’s busy. Plenty of choice on the drink front. Due to how busy it was when we arrived, the food itself did seem to take some time to arrive but it was worth the wait. If you’re impatient, then this may frustrate you - so be warned especially if they’re busy. However - the food itself was great. Just the right size portions - very generous which is a plus. The chips are divine and I would have happily ate a boat load of them. Highly recommend and will definitely return. I would also recommend booking a table just to be safe, if you’re going at a usually busy time of day!

Been here many times. Always impressed with the choice on both the menu and the specials board. The well stocked bar is one of the few to have Double Maxim (Sunderland Brown Ale) on tap. The car park is large with an attractive seating area for those Sunny days.

Up from the West Midlands for the weekend came in for Sunday lunch. The lamb roast was brilliant with mashed potatoes and mashed sweeds plus vegetables and mint sauce well done 👏

A lovely little bistro pub a good sized carpark at the back of the pub. Internally it's well presented and tastefully decorated. The food is tasty with good portions. The staff are very friendly and professional. A good range of beers and lagers there was tables available when we arrived but it was getting busy I would advise making a reservation if going during the weekend. Definitely worth a visit
