The food was very enjoyable (despite my rare steak being a little over medium) Unfortunately, the landlady was at best "standoffish... bordering RUDE. The pub has a clear clique of locals who gather around the bar and get/expect preferential treatment. Delays in ordering, waiting for the bill and QUEUING to pay, meant an hour lunch took well over two hours. We had a well behaved three year old. I sensed despite the children's menu, that kids aren't welcome. Shame. I repeat, food was good ?

Excellent food and helpful service. The food was cooked to order, so it was really freshly prepared . Whole group from v young ( 2yrs) to oldest with a dog were made to feel v welcome. Thanks to the staff.

We took a friend who was visiting here because it has a reputation for great food and good value for money.Unfortunately, our experience belies this reputation somewhat.Two of us had sausage and mash. The sausages were tiny little things and one of the oversized plates came out with a miserable-looking portion of mash: it was miserly. To their credit, the staff provided extra mash when we complained, but really, it shouldn't have come out of the kitchen like that (potatoes cost very little compared to the cost of the meal).I had the halloumi burger, with chips. Again, the chips came out in one of those ridiculous baskets (so they look more than they are). The burger had plenty of halloumi in it but that's about all that can be said of it.We might have been happy with the meal overall, if it had been reasonably priced. But, in our view, it was at least two pounds a head too much and the halloumi burger possibly more.Vegetarian options: Overpriced and fairly underwhelming quality.

Great staff, service and very tasty food.Bar was buzzing but main restaurant was quiet, probably due to terrible weather.Lots to like. Will definitely come back in the summer.

The first time I had been there but very good, the 2 pints of Wainwright were very nice indeed. Just a really nice, relaxing, homely country pub.That makes their customers feel very welcome. A very enjoyable visit would very much like to return someday.
Well worth a visit. A chef who takes great pride in his craft.

We stopped off here on Saturday with our Greyhound :) for some lunch. We ordered a steak pie and chips and a house burger with chips. Both meals were superb. £40 with a glass of wine and a pint of beer. Very dog friendly and service with a smile. If we're ever in the area again we will be definitely back! Thank you.

Sunday dinner was nice enough but small veg portions recieved only 1 tiny carrot, spoon spread of turnip with a small roast potato

We called in on a Saturday afternoon with our Greyhound and ordered two meals with drinks. Steak pie and chips and a house burger with chips. Both meals were superb. All lovely homemade food. The food with a white wine and a pint of beer came to £40. The pub is dog friendly and the service was very warm and we felt welcome. We'd definitely make an effort to go back if ever in that neck of the woods.
Great food friendly staff, went on a
