    The restaurant is beautifully decorated for Christmas with fairy lights and a warm cosy atmosphere. There is an open fire and comfortable sofas where you can have a drink before your meal. The linguine was tasty although a bit on the sweet side. My friend enjoyed the halloumi cheese dish and the meal was hood value for money. The service was friendly and efficient. We are very likely to be back!

    It is a very friendly gastro pub with very good range of good food including for vegan and vegetarians. There are tables also outside but being near to a main road it’s better to sit inside

    Very pleasant and accommodating staff, no problem having a starter as a main, delicious mushrooms, piping hot and full of flavour. Cosy rustic ambiance. Would definitely recommend.

    Enjoyable business dinner with very good food and service. Also a good selection of beers. Atmosphere is casual and relaxed, suitable for most occasions.

    They struggled with service on Bank Holiday Monday. The food took a long time (30-40 mins) to arrive and many items were cold or luke warm. The menu was good and food was of a good quality, just shame on the service.
