We had an amazing evening celebrating a birthday here. The food was beautiful and service was great! - they couldn't do enough for us. It was definitely worth the price and I would definitely go again.

We’ve moved away but came back today for a late lunch. As on previous occasions everything was great from guiding in the crowded car park to the super meal and friendly helpful service. Lots of people having a lovely meal out. We’ll be back ! Thanks to all concerned.

What a great place for a Sunday dinner. Superb food- one of the best pub Sunday dinners I've had. The service from everyone was brilliant- happy, friendly, professional and efficient. Very busy- as expected- so a bit noisy. Best book in advance And great to see the parking is more sorted. 100% recommended- go eat there. Photo of my dinner.

Friendly historic pub, serving great food and great beer (namely the Harvey’s)! Did a walk in early Monday evening and was quite quiet with 3-4 tables having service and some regulars at the bar and in the garden. The lady at the bar provided friendly and attentive service and the food overall was delicious. Will definitely come back. Lots of nice food options you don’t see in most pubs and a specials board.
