Every time I visit this charming pub, I leave feeling satisfied. The selection of ales is impressive, and their seasonal specials often have me coming back for more. Recently, I tried the fish and chips, and I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh and crispy the batter was! The atmosphere has a rustic charm that makes it feel like a home away from home. The only suggestion I’d make is to maybe add a few more vegetarian options to the menu; I had a friend who struggled to find something appealing. Nonetheless, it's a lovely place to unwind after a long day and I absolutely recommend checking it out if you’re in the area!

Having visited several pubs in my time, I can honestly say this one stands out for its welcoming vibe and delicious food. I was there last week with a couple of mates, and we couldn't stop raving about the hearty burgers we ordered—they were juicy and packed with flavour! The staff were incredibly friendly, making sure we felt right at home. One thing I noticed was the limited seating; it was quite crowded, which made it a bit hard to move around. However, the lively atmosphere added to the fun, so it wasn’t a big issue. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and will definitely return for another round with friends!

I had the most delightful evening at this pub! The atmosphere is just perfect—cosy yet lively, which made for a great night out with friends. We tried their homemade pies, and they were absolutely delicious; I couldn't get enough of the rich gravy! The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring our drinks were always topped up. The only minor hiccup was that the service was a bit slow during peak hours, but the food made up for it entirely. I can’t wait to return for another round of those pies and to explore more of their menu!
