About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
Open Tuesday to Sunday with food served all day from noon.
We now have 3 Giant heated Tipis, they provide lots of fresh air and a lovely open environment, they are also heated.

Formerly an 18th Century farmhouse boasting exposed beams, oak floors, exposed brickwork and oak tables. This leads to a very relaxed and cosy atmosphere with candle lit tables and real flame stoves.

The cuisine is typically modern European, classically cooked using cornerstones such as stock pots to create their sauces with a brigade that has a passion for what they do.

This is exciting times for the pub which now has a new bar serving real ale straight from the cask. Be sure to check out the website regularly to keep up with the latest events and offers.

    Limited selection on menu on a Sunday, all geared up for Sunday roast. I had roasted lamb shank and Hubby had mixed meat roast. Both where tasty, although I found the roast potatoes a little salty. Staff friendly.

    I came for a long, relaxed lunch with a friend. The food was sensational and the ambience conducive to conversation. The staff were attentive and friendly. We weren’t rushed along to leave when we’d finished eating and it was all a thoroughly great experience. I highly recommend it and we’ll definitely be back!

    Last night was the 1st time going to the Moody Mare and we was pleasantly surprised, the food was very good and not overly expensive. The dining area was decorated nicely and Staff were attentive but not smothering us. The Sauvignon Blanc was nice and they even had Zero Guinness for my partner as well. There is a nice garden area and plenty of parking, we will be returning.
