Late Sunday roast with all the trimmings hit just the right spot!
Having moored our holiday narrow boat we were eagerly looking for something to fill our hungry tummies. The White Bear sounded inviting and it sure was. Sunday roast was advertised until 4pm so...with trepidation we ventured forth to see what else we could sample. A welcoming waitress showed us to a table and declared roast was still available! Yes!
Two courses for £16.95 sounded very good value and it lived up to its billing. We all chose a starter, king prawns with chilli and garlic, garlic mushrooms and Thai style crab cakes. A fabulous collection of appetisers, the mushrooms were decidedly the stars with a gorgeous creamy cheese sauce atop toasted ciabatta. I was a bit jealous of the crab cakes which my son scoffed with enthusiasm. There were plenty of prawns on offer with our final starter, spicy with chillis and garlic.
Three roast beef dinners followed with the usual yorkies (perhaps a little over done but scrummy all the same), roasties, veg and several slices of beef. Tasty and delicious 😋
With a couple of glasses of red, lager for the boys, we needed a wander round the village before heading back to the boat.
Try this pub if you are in the vicinity, it’s well worth it!More
