We popped on today after walking the dogs on the moor. The staff are super friendly and told us it was dog friendly (we didn't realise and had left them in the car). Naturally I sent my husband to get the dogs. We ordered our drinks and was also offered water for the dogs. We then ordered our food and was told they did "doggie dinners". Of course , we had to order them one each. I must admit the doggie dinners looked very appetising (chicken breast, sausage and gravy) and very reasonable at £2.50. Our food was very good too. Feeding ourselves and the pampered pooches was less than £20 (plus drinks). We'll definitely be back. Thanks 🐶🐾🦴
The pub is amazing, it has well priced drinks and the food is great. I absolutely love bathe Wednesday burger deal. The bar staff are really friendly and the service is quick.
This was a pretty good place. It was dog friendly and relatively quiet. The food arrived quickly, and the staff were friendly. The food was ok, and the atmosphere was relatively good. I’d probably come back here again.
Went the other night for a few drinks and food with the girlies and it was a great atmosphere, great food and great service! Great for allergies as one of our group has an allergy and they handled it very well.
Really lovely pub, quaint and cosy. Friendly staff. Good food and nice atmosphere. Dog friendly too
