This was the first pub, as an individual, I went to in 1981. I believe it's been through a few managers since then.
It's a lovely pub inside, full of character and has a decent garden, for those wishing to be outside. It also has a function room you can hire.
I have been back several times on the last year. The staff are generally very polite but they could do with a uniform or code of dress, as some of the women dress as though they are working at Kings Cross, if you get what I mean?
The food can be hit and miss also. I've had a fabulous meal there and a not so good meal. Maybe there were different chefs on.
It is worth a visit, though, and definitely worth supporting.
Good pub, decent range of beers on tap, sizeable beer garden and well decorated inside
Absolutely lush pub who could not do enough for us. We've been here a few times now and the food is always delicious! The staff were absolutely brilliant and the range of drinks was great. They have a bookable room in the back or a large pub area.
Enjoyable birthday celebration. The staff were friendly and helpful the buffet had a good selection & was of a good standard. 2nd party we've had here and loved it both times.
Just had a drink, will definitely go back for food. Very dog friendly if you have a dog
Quality and value
This is a good pub restaurant for the family. There's a nice garden with climbing apparatus for the kids. The food was good value and tastes good. No complaints!
Be prepared to be ignored by irregulars of you are here for the first time. Nice staff though. Don't get me wrong. Oh you already have..
An old and slightly worn PH with a nice friendly atmosphere. Popular with dogs and their owners .
We were a coach full of football supporters ( well behaved ones)that stopped at this pub (pre arranged). Not our usual routine but we all said we must stop here again. They were welcoming, food was lush, a good variety and competitively priced. Good range of beers and spirits. Highly recommend.
Excellent Sunday lunch for 3 adults a child and a dog. They even have a dog meal
