Last time I visited the pub had become a Big Smoke House.When my mates set me up a pint of London Pride as I arrived by train I realised that there had been a change.Great pint in this classic old style English pub. We'll be back!

Booked for son’s girlfriend’s birthday as we had a few good meals there. Welcome was lovely, menu was basic but okay. Ordered vegan burgers, a meat burger and pizza. Burgers were again basic but okay. Pizza was a thorough disappointment - it was shop bought and tasteless. I really don’t mind basic grub but when you’re paying £15 for a meal you expect a £15 meal! Would have been better value in Spoons. Lesson learnt!

I’m dying after a work night out, the barman (from Brum) let me in, served me a great pint of Guinness that flew down my neck. He then sorted me a shot of my choice after hearing that I had a 3 hour journey ahead of me. Excellent service the guy is an absolute ‘G’

I recently had the opportunity to visit a local pub for a Christmas dinner, and overall, it was a decent experience. One aspect that stood out to me was the incredibly helpful and friendly staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that all guests had a pleasant dining experience. From assisting with menu choices to promptly addressing any concerns, the staff truly made a positive impression.The pub also had a good selection of beers to choose from. Whether you prefer a classic pint or a more unique craft beer, there was something for everyone. The variety of options added to the overall enjoyment of the evening.One of the highlights of the pub was the affordable pricing. The room area where the Christmas dinner was held had a nice atmosphere and was reasonably priced. It was a great value for the quality of food and service provided.Additionally, the pub had a spacious and beautiful garden area. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a large outdoor space, especially during the holiday season. It provided a great opportunity to take a stroll and enjoy the fresh air.Speaking of the food, the Sunday roast served for the Christmas dinner was satisfactory. The portion sizes were generous, and the flavors were acceptable. While it may not have been the most outstanding meal I've had, it was still enjoyable, and the staff ensured that everyone's dietary needs were accommodated.One minor drawback was that the room where the dinner was held was a bit cold. However, it was still within an acceptable range, and the presence of a big TV with Netflix and YouTube helped to keep the kids entertained.Overall, my experience at the pub for the Christmas dinner was not too bad. The helpful and friendly staff, good selection of beers, affordable pricing, and the presence of a big and nice garden area were definite highlights. While the food was satisfactory, the room temperature could have been improved. Nevertheless, it was still a pleasant evening spent with family and friends.

Contacted our favorite local pub for a last-minute Christmas gathering with 20 people, including kids. Remarkably accommodating, they swiftly arranged a festive setting, catering to both adults and children. The impromptu reservation turned out to be a fantastic holiday celebration – great service, ample space, and a joyful atmosphere. Highly recommended for spontaneous festivities! ❤️

Amazing members of staff food just perfect will definitely be going again. And recommending to
Completely inept. One of the usual requirements for a pub is to have beer to sell. Apparently not here as we progressively had each pump eliminated from the menu. No Guinness. No Madri. Moretti gone after 1 beer.

Very welcoming and friendly,helpful staff. First time visiting and me and the family will definitely be coming back!! Food was GREAT! The place was clean and staff was staying on top of cleaning jobs throughout the day they kept themself busy which was nice to see as it was a little quiet in the pub when we was there but really good pub! Highly recommended

Booked a table for 3 of us at 5 p.m. Walked in to a warm welcome, ordered drink and sat in the bar. Ordered two The Classic from the Dogs menu and halloumi fries, normal fries and the chicken tenders. Ordering was easy and stress free! Food arrived and looked lovely. The hot dogs were so tasty and the crispy shallots, ketchup, American mustard and pickles added so much to the flavours. Biggest challenge - eating the Hot Dog without making a mess!!! The halloumi fries and chicken were so lovely. This is a gem of a setting and would recommend to any-one. The staff are fab and we just need an excuse to return asap. Thank you for your welcome and excellent food and service. (Biggest regret - I didn't take a photo of our food to share with everyone!!)

Had a party in the events room (The Vault) which was great. Lovely atmosphere and a lovely space. Staff were super helpful and came into the space every ~15mins to take orders saving us to go to the bar.
