Great carvery highly recommended. You will need to book at busy times, we got there at 2pm on a Sunday and there was only one table free. Staff were friendly and cheerful. I had the standard size, they also do small and large. Prices are the same as other carvery pubs nearby.

Lovely pub in Poundbury. Good selection of beers and cider, friendly service and not overpriced. I fancied a snack so went for the starter portion of falafel which was just the ticket. Lovely outdoor seating as well, couldn’t ask for more, we’ll be back.

Lovely welcome, food plentiful and hot, drinks reasonably priced. What struck us most was our host - fabulous guy! In fact, all the staff were brilliant.

Was my first time to have a meal at this pub. Cannot recommend it enough! A little jewel tucked away. All 3 of our meals were delicious!
A family run pub who were all lovely!
Great decor too.

Last minute booking for the carvery (standard size), they do a small and a large too. Treacle tart to follow and a nicely kept pint of Otter to wash it all down. Great atmosphere, super service. Outstanding experience ! Thanks.
