    Chicken burger was burnt rock hard, although they did refund the cost. Sandwiches dry and not appetising. Would not recommend the food.

    We have eaten here many times and have always enjoyed the food and service . However, was quite disappointed tonight with the food . I ordered a steak medium rare and it was nearly well done . My husband had the brisket which was more shallots than meat and very salty . It was very noisy and prefer to be sat in the front of the pub rather than at back .
