9 of us enjoyed a lovely family meal celebrating a birthday today. Exceptional food (enormous portions) enjoyed by all. Great value for money. Nice, friendly staff.

Excellent food cooked fresh. Very friendly staffParking: Small car park at the rear. It was empty when we arrived but was full when we were leaving because of a large birthday group.

Martin Nolan
Great place, really dog friendly, I've had a number of good meals here, only small point is sometimes a bit slow with the bill.Parking: Always found I could park up.

We went for my Mum’s birthday last week. The booking was for 18 people. When we arrived we were seated in 2 booths and a table. We had to sit 2 people on the end or there would have been 2 people excluded from sitting near us. The waitress came over and took the first tables order, the second order was children’s and before the third table ordered the first tables food arrived. The food was very staggered as by the time the third tables food had arrived the first table had finished. The children’s chicken nuggets came out different (some nuggets, some chunks and some a mix). The staff were friendly and helpful just not great for a large booking. The meal had been booked in advance so it was slightly disappointing the experience we received.

Nice relaxing place to meet up.

Disappointed. Booked a table, 5 mins after we arrived we were pushed to order because 'there was another party after us'. Drinks service was quick, so was starters. Huge delay until mains, however the food was very hit and miss. Chicken Wings were disgusting and hardly had any chicken on, lamb koftas were dry and tough, sausages seemed freezer bought rubbish, pie was stacked but the pastry inedible, chicken katsu had one good bit of chicken and one terrible bit. Puddings were a bit bland. Worst of all the maitre'd was just strange. She had no positivity, didn't ask how we were or how it was, couldn't seem to get rid of us quick enough, she was just a very strange presence and by the end, we all thought we had pissed her off without having done anything wrong - even the kids were well behaved. The rest of the waitresses were lovely and willing to help. Very disappointed as we were really looking forward to this.Parking: Small, if you get there late afternoon there are no spaces.Kid-friendliness: Lovely atmosphere in general, lovely pub, no issues with ours or other kids. Also allows dogs which is a massive bonus.

Been a couple of times now for a meal , it was a toss up between the rag pudding or chicken dinner for me .....husband had the rag , I had the chicken dinner and I have to say its probably the BEST Sunday roast I've ever had AND it was only £15 ?

I broke down on the junction and these guys were great. They let me use their facilities and gave me a warm drink. Later when I was waiting for the RAC I came in for lunch and had what I can only describe as the best (and biggest!) steak pie I’ve ever had!

Called in on the chance there was a free table for a hot sandwich and drink as we have been several times before and it’s usually good Was shown to table ordered food which wasabi two sandwiches on beef baguette and fish sandwich sandwiches arrived short time later looked impressive however the beef baguette was more fat than beef what could be salvaged and as staff came to ciear the plates we mentioned the large amount of fat found in the dry baguette to the member of staff , she didn’t apologise and only said she’d mention it to the chief as we paid for the food the same staff member said the chief wood look at it but I’m sure he’d have looked at it as he put it on the baguette, it was disappointing that they still didn’t apologise or offer a reduction in in price of the food It’s put is off going there again and feel that others should be mindful if they go there
Lovely little pub, very cosy interior and looks like the outside seating area would be nice in the summer months. The service was friendly and attentive, food was very good - other half had the comfort haddock and I had the cheese and onion pie. There’s a lot of pubs in this area with great pies but pleased to say this was up there with the better ones. It was also nice to see a couple of dishes that I’ve not seen elsewhere like rabbit and a game hot pot which I’d like to try next time. Only slight grumble was the chicken nuggets on the kids menu seemed just like frozen ones where some other pubs we visit have been using “home made” ones….not that our daughter complained, she still enjoyed them. All in all, worth a visit and would go back.
