    My wife and I were looking for some Thai food and saw this on Google and were a bit apprehensive seeing that it was also a pub. Walking in we were immediately greeted by the guys behind the bar, even when they had a number of customers they were serving, and asked what drinks they can get for us. We were clearly confused on where the Thai restaurant was and the guy was very friendly and showed us the way to the stairs and we took our drinks upstairs. The restaurant had just the chef to cook and wait tables and he was very friendly and the food tasted great. A bit weird when you're not…

    Me and my wife stubbled across this little gem on the way to our hotel. Family run pub with Fantastic service that make you feel very welcome. The bar staff Richard and Monty were so welcoming and friendly that we went back day. Richard and Monty you are top guys.

    So, Rudds management reply to my 5* review and tell me adamantly they "don't serve halal food" yet the ignorant owners stick a deliveroo sign up with the words "HALAL" in Arabic. 🤣 (See photo). I attended this premises and pointed out that a bar serving Halal food is bit of a faux pas & the friendly bar staff and I laughed about it. I placed my order in confidence the chicken was halal. It most likely was. Not that the management will know! So for providing false information, it was poor food, poor service and poor atmosphere. 1 star (if that).

    Very less people on a Thursday when next door is buzzing. May be the pricing is playing a factor? Host smoking indoors with e cigarette is not a good sign either.

    Arrived for a networking experience that was as good as the venue. The gentlemen bar keepers are consistently good natured, attentive and highly professional. The Thai food is exceptional.
