Overall a very nice experience. Good menu choice and food was timely and well cooked. The beer was good. A nice atmosphere in the pub and seating nicely spaced. The menu was a bit expensive, nearly £30 for a 8oz sirloin steak, with a mushroom, half a tomato, peppercorn sauce and some very nice chips. I would say it was fine dining as the portion sizes were adequate. Average price for starters and pudding was £9 although all delicious. Friendly and welcoming staff. Will go back again.

We had a lovely meal and they were very accommodating that we only wanted sandwiches. The pub had just been taken over so the website said they did sandwiches at the weekend but on the day they did not have this on their weekend menu. They were kind enough to allow us to order sandwiches off the weekday menu. In addition, the owner even discounted the price to match the weekday offer price - this is not something at all we expected as they had already accommodated us greatly, a very welcome surprise! If you are looking for a delicious lunch, we can highly recommend some lovely sandwiches and hosted by a welcoming and generous owner.
