Had a son and mummy dinner date start of the week. Staff lovely esp with my son. Seen they had a menu refresh. Son always orders pasta but Alex told him how amazing the pizza was. This was apparently the best pizza he has ever had. I tried the new signature burger, lovely. We occasionally pop in for take away desserts. Brownies are fabulous x

This used to be a great place to eat with efficient service and excellent food. Feels as if management is cutting cost with not enough staff for the volume of customers hence long wait for drinks and food and tables not being cleared. We really loved this pub but after today's meal we wont be returning to eat here again.

Booked a table for 1:30. Order not taken. Had to order at the bar (ordered at 2:30). Food arrived at 15:00 along with a bad attitude from the waiting staff. Not sure what was going on. Normally good service, not this time!!!

Food was ok, but not brilliant. The lasagne was very dry. The green garnish was very limp and peas were over cooked with the gammon.All the meals on the menu had fancy names even though they weren't accurate. Eg the pizza extra topping was labelled as "pulled chicken" whereas it was really chicken chunks. Which suited me as I'd prefer it as chunks. So why bother being fancy on the menu?Thinking about it now maybe I'd say the food was very disappointing.Food took a long time, visited on a Wednesday lunchtime around 12:15 and it took over an hour for the food to be served. Given the long waiting time you'd expect at least to be warned about it, but we weren't.

Fantastic meal tonight! Love the live music doesn’t happen to often in pubs these days and really created a great atmosphere!! Only issue was the two waiting staff who was moody and moaning about it being loud.

Atmosphere was very good with live music but unfortunately the food didn't match, the jasmine rice which accompanied the curry was solid and i was told it was sticky rice when I queried it. The chicken was also overdone. Fobbed off by the waitress and will not be returning.

Lovely cozy pub, had the lasagne and everything on the plate was delicious, from the cute salad bowl to the garlic bread! Very well priced too!

On this visit we had a very disappointing experience.-We arrived 10 minutes early but table wasn’t ready. We were told to wait in the bar. 25 minutes after booked time we were seated at a table that was free when we arrived. Whilst waiting in the bar as advised, I received a text to say I hadn’t turned up and table was cancelled.-There was a 50m wait on food but whilst waiting, no one could let us know when it would arrive-When food arrived plates were hot but food wasn’t-The meat was dry and tough mostly inedible, especially the pork belly as fat not rendered down-ran out of stuffing on Turkey dish so they offered pigs in blankets as substitute. Which were uncooked and they also tried to charge us for.- Dessert was offered but out of 7 desserts, 3 were not available. At 3.30pm this seems early to be running out of desserts-Whilst it was busy there didn’t seem enough staff and there was no organisation between the staff that was there. Very disappointing visit

Really lovely food and atmosphere. The waitress who took care of us (it was her first week) was just lovely and looked after us well.

Had the hunters chicken schnitzel, which was decent, bit over priced I would say at £17.95 but I did enjoy it.Staff friendly, nice pub
