The pub and its food is nice but the menu is quite poor: there isn't a lot of choice, and even less for those who are vegetarian (like my partner). While I was eating I asked for some wine but it arrived when I had practically finished my meal. As there were only 3 tables there for lunch (with ours included), it wasn't the case that it was so busy that my drink couldn't have arrived earlier. The place is very likeble and clean but there's definitely room for improvement. My 3 star rating is one of sincere encouragement, considering that the pub is relatively new. I think I will go back there…

The pub is really stylish with a beautiful garden. Giving very cool vibes. There are some vegan and gluten free options (hope for more). David is a very good host here. He is such a nice and positive person. We will come more and more often. Highly recommend this pub!

Visited last Saturday. Tasteful refurbishment. Good selection of drinks and cocktails. Tribute band OK. Though we sat away from the main crowd to chat. Impressed with the facilities extremely clean. Nice mixed crowd of all ages. Friendly staff who thanked as we left which was nice gesture. The only negative was £1.60 for a small packet of crisps. Enjoyed so visiting again this Saturday for the Kisstory night.

Tastefully refurbished, with a spacious garden area that is buzzing in the summer. Drinks selection is varied for spirits. Beer selection is keg only but has the usual crowd pleasers (Neck Oil, Old Moat, Fosters, Guinness, etc.). I would particularly recommend the classic burger, very juicily cooked beef, with a serving of perfectly turned out fries.
