Lovely food, amazing atmosphere - shame you can never get through on the phone to book a table when you travel here from a distance.

What a fabulous vibrant pub. I recommend the gammon steak and hubby enjoyed the sea bass. We're very lucky to have such a great pub within walking distance from home..

Food was amazing there was four of us who booked a table top class food But the only let down at the end of our 3 course meal we were told we only ad 5minutes left on the table which was very disappointing as we was still finishing our drinks and wanted to order something else. We spent a lot of money and to be told people were waiting for the table where there was other tables empty. Such a shame it put a damper on the evening

We called in for drinks on our way back to our camper van, we were lucky to be able to get a table to sit at as they are very busy. We decided to look at the memo as the food been brought out looked delicious. After checking out allergens we decided to eat, I had Gammon which was delicious. All the staff were extremely busy but still had time to be friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend food here even if you have allergies as they can easily answer any questions and cater for all

Went here with a friend and his family. We had it booked for 3PM, but were a bit early (about 15-20 minutes I believe) and were still let in. We ordered our drinks at the bar, and they were quickly ready. After we were shown to our table, where I was told the story of the place, which I recommend looking up if you don't know it yet. Alternatively they've got pictures and writing inside where you can read the story in detail as well. Once picked out, we ordered our food at the bar, and it was brought to us very soon. While waiting it's the perfect time to read said interesting story. But the food didn't just arrive soon, it also tasted wonderfully. They've also got wide variety in both drinks and food. Both of which are also fairly priced, and considering the taste, maybe even cheap. We also got some extra gravy and desserts very quickly after asking for it. The staff were also very kind. All in all, there is a great atmosphere, story, food, and service, and I have no complaints. The only thing one might dislike is the music playing in the background, but it was just my taste and it suited the atmosphere, so the upbeat 80's were just fine with me. My Verdict: 10/10 Perfect (my first 10/10 review).
