First time after 5 years of almost making it. Didn't disappoint. Really friendly service, fab selection of beers. And the food.....just awesome and in EPIC PROPORTIONS. I love my yorkshire puds and the loaf pud was delicious 😋 just don't expect room for a main meal after this bad boy! Will definitely be returning soon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Been to a function this evening, under staffed with a landlord who clearly just wants the money, smoking area was disgusting with ashtray that looked like not been emptied for months? Bar staff was good apart from the fact that one man had to deal with everything, had to clear tables and the landlord was totally miserable to everyone?? If you want a private booking not the place to be. Too sum up could do better and don’t forget customers pay your bills??
Great range of beers and ales so good for a pint or three. Fabulous Sunday lunch. Best Yorkshire Puddings around. Dog friendly. Stunning building
Fantastic Sunday dinner. Lots to choose from on the menu. Had the lambs liver this time. Perfect. You definitely walk out stuffed that's for sure. The beer is great. So are the locals and staff. Definitely be returning again.
