    We've visited on many occasions and always return. This was a family catch up. We had 2 special mixed grills, fish pie, mac n cheese with southern fried chicken absolutely delicious 😋 carling, Heineken and bierre moretti were excellent. Highly recommend

    We were greeted on arrival and shown to our table. Shortly after our drinks order was taken. When the drinks were delivered they took our food order. Starters arrived promptly and were nice and hot and well presented. The mains arrived promptly and were again hot, well presented and large portions. The food was very tasty and so good we booked Sunday dinner for the next day. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The pub and restaurant were busy which is a sign of a good place to be. Will definitely be returning.

    £18.99 for trio of meats roast dinner on Easter Sunday. Very small amount of meat. One very small (think malteasar size) rock hard stuffing ball. The menu said it came with a pig in blanket, but was not on our plate.. when we asked for the pig in blankets, we were told they didn't have any. We were still charged the £18.99 despite not having the full meal. We had to go to bar the order drinks as nobody came to take our order. We left very disappointed this Easter Sunday.
