Nice little atmosphere here for watching the rugger world cup. Not rammed by any means but some genial gents enjoying their local. Cl an facilities and good bar service. Nice choice of beers as well. Would recommend for a warm welcome and a decent pint

A regular haunt of mine, I have Sunday lunch here often. Warm welcome from staff and manager. Karaoke nights and themed dining nights. They now host a monthly Rock and Roll Bingo night too

AVOID AVOID AVOID Worst pub I have ever attended. I felt intimidated the whole time I was there. They were so rude when I was being served and continued to give my friends and I dirty looks throughout the night. We played a game of pool (none of us play professionally) and got called “pool hoggers”. They continued to confront us and use foul language towards us for ‘taking so long’. A man also invaded my friends personal space and got in his face saying“You will follow the rules of the f***ing pub”. Im assuming people who don’t play pool professionally are a big consent here. Two of my friends left due to feeling so uncomfortable. My other friend and I got chased out of there accused of ‘stealing’ and called foul names AGAIN by the landlady herself as well as some of the staff. We are banned without explanation or I’m guessing for ‘taking so long at playing pool’?? Avoid this place I have been here multiple times and have never had a good experience with the staff but this night really showed that.

The single most worst experience I’ve ever had in a pub. Not only were the staff awful but we were also made to feel incredibly uncomfortable the whole night. We received dirty looks throughout the night and were told we were “hogging” the pool table when we were just playing a simple game of pool (none of us are professional players) throughout the night we were threatened to get kicked out for “hogging the pool table” when we were just trying to finish our game. Men got in our faces and were yelling at us to leave so two of us ended up leaving early and when our two other mates left they were chased by the bar staff and excused of stealing and then searched. To top it all off we are all now banned. Overall a terrible experience caused over a table and clearly a terrible attitude towards younger people. We were treated horrendously by most of the people there. Honestly steer clear.

Made myself and everyone I was with feel incredibly uncomfortable. They were rude as we were being served and continued to give us dirty looks throughout the night. We were playing a game of pool and got told we were ‘pool hoggers’ as we were playing (none of us actually play pool professionally). They continued to threaten to kick us out for ‘taking so long’ .Overall an absolutely horrendous experience I’ve never felt so uncomfortable in a pub. I will not be going here again and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
