2/2/2025 update Sunday dinners very good. 9.85 (for a small but very filling) with choice of 4 meats, plenty of veg, yorkshire pud and your own gravy boat. Covid update, a pint is now 3.40, an eye watering (for a Yorkshireman) 50% increase. They also have a ban on smartphones Good Sam Smiths pub. Friendly staff. Cheap. Pub quiz on a Monday night. Good Sunday dinner on the afternoon.
Called in this pub with a group of male friends before going to the Indian restaurant over the road.We virtually all had a couple of pints of Sam Smiths bitter and boy we wasn't disappointed.The staff were very friendly and they were a few old characters in just like the old days,can't wait to go again.
