    A fantastic location and a very atmospheric pub. Friendly and helpful staff who rectified any issues immediately and with good grace and professionalism. Sunday lunch was a bit average, but the food is not the main attraction here. Would still recommend others to visit and would probably go back again but maybe make different menu choices.

    The service and friendliness second to none...outstanding. The Sunday roasts were close to inedible.....the beef was extremely tough, I couldn't eat it. The pork was 2/3 rds fat 1/3 meat. Veg good, puddings good. Prawn cocktail unusual but whitebait was good as were puddings. We didn't complain as were with friends who I was treating, not a great treat .

    We booked to celebrate mothers day although the day before the actual date. All four of us enjoyed our own meals which were well presented in good time and with a welcoming smile from all of the staff we met.

    Excellant food, friendly and efficient service. Lamb medallions were excellant and the steak was also a winner. The waitresses were friendly and helpful. We visited in February, I would definitely visit again I would imagine it will be beautiful in the summer, the garden area looked stunning.

    Arrived for Sunday lunch ( booked 2.15 ) It was fairly busy - took about 30 mins to get order taken . Another 40 for food to arrive - but our side orders weren't available (roast potatoes) as they didn't have enough - meal came with 3 v small potatoes - very crunchy - over cooked - brocolli like rock ... and only just warm . Really disappointing ... However I cannot praise the staff enough for their willingness to try and resolve things quickly. I can only assume that on this day the kitchen were not able to cope with tje quantity of orders . Food was discounted and drinks offered . Good restaurant staff and very friendly.
