The Sunday Roast is nice but the pizza is not very good. Good service except there are some people smoking near the entrance of the pub which ruined my dinning experience.
Char main lady on bar and head chef poppy are absolutely stunning characters. Brilliant atmosphere very personalable. Get yourselves a visit top notch
Great Tuesday afternoon to celebrate a work colleagues retirement. Food was amazing ordered fish and chips, chicken tikka, lasagne with garlic bread and scampi with chips it was all lovely 2 for £12.99 so was cheap aswell. Sian served us and she was brilliant lovely lass and witty go and support local business. Music could've been lounder though.
The pub is great, the bar staff amazing. The assistant bar manger always makes me smile and makes my visist the most enjoyable
Called in midweek at White Bear for a bite to eat, lovely staff, chilled atmosphere and a gorgeous pizza washed down with a couple of ice cold Coors. Would highly recommend.
