Our freshly cooked Steak and Ale or Steak and Kidney pies are simply the best in the area, served with either fresh vegetables or chips and loads of gravy the choice is yours.

Had a great meal here yesterday followed by a six mile walk to work it off. Service was friendly and helpful. Quite busy but we felt safe and the rules that are currently in force were being followed by the pub. Really good choice on the menu. Will definitely be back.

It’s such a shame that I was so impressed by the food, and then thoroughly distressed by this establishments COVID 19 measures. My family were seated and we had a considerable wait for the meal. High quality food and very much enjoyed. Until the end of our meal when the owner willingly let a waitress seat a gathering of 6 less than a foot away from us.

Our family has 3 vulnerable people and rarely takes the risk of eating out. We thought we’d stay safe and eat locally. Didn’t know we’d have to risk our safety so that the owner could accommodate and please the regulars. When brought to his attention he barely apologised and seemed oblivious.

Social distancing was not maintained by them, breaking COVID restrictions. More responsibility should be taken in the future, to make sure people are actually safe.

My apologies as this was not meant to cause offence but I can only speak truthfully of my experience and express my upset.

We arrived without a reservation and managed to get a table, it felt clean and safe and most of us had the excellent fish basket which had chunks of cod, monkfish and prawns in a good batter. Very reasonable and excellent quality
