My friend & I have had fish chip takeaways from the Magpie & Parrot & it’s really the best fish & Chips we’ve rated & so well presented in cardboard boxes, friendly staff too. We also went to their garden in July & had fish & chips picnic in the garden it was lovely & a very pleasant atmosphere. I give 5 star. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

We have had a delightful afternoon at this quaint and quirky pub, celebrating a friends 80th birthday. It has some fascinating artefacts, stuffed animals, old fashioned telephones, dinky cars and all mannaer of bottles to name but a few of the ornaments. We were very well looked after by the staff, having a delicious cream tea with dainty sandwiches and homemade cakes. The bar was open and we were able to have an Elvis look alike to serenade us and even manage a bit of a dance! Thank you to the hosts, it was a lovely, memorable afternoon.

My grandparents met at this pub 70 years ago, and visited frequently throughout their married life. We always have family events here. The staff are delightful, everything is very reasonably priced, and their marquee at the back is excellent for small/medium sized events. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Very helpful manager, she kept the kitchen open for us even though we were late. The food was good and the historical memorabilia was fascinating.

Attended a christening party in the marquee. Well laid out lovely ambience Plenty of tables chairs outside. Lovely garden and fields in the back. Pig roasted fresh and side salads. Roasted meat was tasty but not too impressed with the salads, ie Potatoe salad swimming in Mayonnaise. Otherwise a great venue.

Proper old skool pub. I didn't get think they existed around here any more. Lovely beer garden on a summary evening.

Comfortable, friendly pub with a great old fashioned atmosphere. Limited lunchtime menu - excellent ham, eggs and chips, well kept Fuller's London Pride.

Visited recently after a gap of some years. They now do food on weekday lunchtimes (I think they are closed on Mondays though). We had a very acceptable ham, egg and chips and a good pint of London Pride. Extremely friendly staff and it's a bit like visiting somebody's house. Nice quirky pub.
