Having visited before we decided to come again bringing our Son & Daughter-in-law for a treat. Had not been on a Sunday before and so hadn't tried the carvery. We all opted for this and it was excellent. Plenty of everything and all beautifully cooked and presented. Just about had room for dessert. We all enjoyed the food and atmosphere of the pub and will visit again.
