I’ve seen this venue recommended on TikTok and it sure didn’t disappoint! Myself and my partner tried it for the first time today taking my mum out for her 84th birthday. We are a family of foodies who have been lucky enough to eat in some amazing restaurants but I have to say, we have NEVER eaten roast beef this good … ever!! We asked our host how it’s cooked as we were so keen to know how it’s so tender and flavoursome. We managed to squeeze in some Pistachio ice cream for desert which was also an OMG moment! We will definitely be coming back as soon as possible! Thanks so much to the team for a wonderful lunch.

We came with our friends for Sunday lunch and had a great time. The chicken I chose was very flavourful and delicious. Service was the best we have experienced for a long time. It’s not cheap but great value when you consider the quality of the food and overall

We had an excellent Birthday occasion for our son in great surroundings. Will and Tammy were so welcoming in the bar and restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they made our son and daughter in law so relaxed and comfortable with their baby, which in British restaurants today is often unusual. Rhys and Calum in the kitchen excelled themselves too, with an array of delicious dishes. Fish Pie, Moules Marinières, Aubergine & Cauliflower Tagine and Steak and Ale Pie all proving excellent!I thoroughly recommend a visit.

Had a truly excellent Sunday lunch here recently. It is a very nice gastro-pub with a warm welcome, excellent service, good beers and great wines. We’ve been before and always enjoyed our visit.But the star on Sunday was the outstanding food presented to us. Quality and quantity were just superb and made for a truly memorable lunch.I highly recommend this place for high quality but relaxed dining, whether it’s just the two of you or a larger group.

Excellent food and beer. I've been a few times now and each time it's been very good. The staff are super friendly and fun. Highly recommended for special occasions.

Slow service. Raw vegetables. When complained that parsnips were not cooked was told they were an extra and not part of the dish!! Really? Why put undercooked veg on the plate even if an extra? Got the impression they were concentrating so much on the larger tables that they neglected is and also ran low on veg! Also ordered a zero alcohol beer and was given a normal beer. When I pointed this out the barman apologised and said that he was not told that and said am I ok with the drink? No i am driving hence the request for zero alcohol. All in all a really disappointing experience. Perhaps the wrong day but even so really poor customer service. Just accept you got it wrong and don’t try to deflect the issue. I know friends have now cancelled- shame!

The food was excellent: superbly cooked, beautifully presented and excellent value. Every dish was good, and there were 6 of us. My halibut was one of the best fish dishes I have ever had. The pork belly was crispy skinned and perfectly roasted. All the deserts were delicious. Portions were generous. The setting was comfortable and attractive. Service was enthusiastic and super friendly. It was a lovely experience that exceeded expectations.

A fantastic lunch at a pub we've not been in for a few years now. Excellent value set lunch menu which was tasty, filling and just all round very good. The pie was excellent as was the sticky toffee pudding. The two ladies who served us were friendly, very efficient and looked after us. A really pleasant visit.
