Sadie and Sam kitchen team presented the food with such care and excellence. Amelia brought the food out and delivered it with kindness. What an amazing pub and what an amazing team. I definitely recommend
Lovely pub,a shame no one clears tables,every one near us has empties on and us and a number of other people have cleared the table themselves,not busy so ni excuse
This was a lovely bar for drinking, with a neat interior across its well patterned walls! The lighting and flags are really nice, counter is stylish in its layout. I had a pint of Asahi, sitting comfortably at a smooth table and pool was fun here too very accessible!
