  Nice atmosphere on a weekday. Bit of a wait for food but it was fine as we enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Frequented by friendly locals who like a bit of bant. Food was nice and portions generous.

  We had starters of specials of Beetroot and Giats Cheese Salad, Salt n Pepper Squid of the normal Sunday menu Buffalo Chicken Wings and Cockles. They were all really nice and served as expected. We then had roast beef, gammon roast, Steak and Ale pie, and I had a platter of meat roast. I tasted all meats pork, beef, chicken and gammon all were moist the accompanying Yorkshire pudding, wide ranging veg and roasties were lovely to. We had naughty sides of sausages in bacon lush, pork crackling double lush! And Cauliflower cheese. Everything was great! For desert i had Belgian Waffle with toffee…

  Visited here on a Sunday for lunch. The food is pretty standard pub food. Amazing staff service, all very attentive, friendly, and efficient. It was very packed inside and there were no spaces left in the car park. I would suggest getting there early if you need a space as it gets extremely full up. It isn't dog friendly inside just outside in the garden area.

  Had a very nice lunch here, just the two of us. Ample parking spaces, walked in early without reservation and seated straightaway (although it did start to get busy about an hour after we arrived so a reservation for a late lunch might be good idea). Nice decor throughout. Waiting staff were very pleasant and helpful. Food arrived in good time between courses, not too late not too soon. Mussels, starter and Skate wing main with apple crumble for dessert, all delicious. Will definitely be returning to try the Sunday lunch, may just have found our new favourite local’. Cab next time so I can…

  Incredibly boring menu, was seated right next to the bar where I had to suffer the locals loudly and drunkly shouting at each other. Staff were not very welcoming, they forgot to give us a menu. At least 3 meals they didn't have and parking was a nightmare as too small a carpark/people parking where they shouldn't of been (disabled bays, across lines. Finished my drink and went to The Orange Tree which has a much more interesting menu and better service all round. Won't be going back
