Came for my mother's 65th birthday on Thursday evening and wow I was very impressed with the pub what a gorgeous place, we was greater by Donna who was fantastic very engaging and down to earth. We all had starters black pudding stack mushrooms fishcake and prawn cocktail for the birthday girl she was very impressed with the amount if prawns, my Stilton mushrooms where unreal I had a ribeye for main which again was unreal cooked to perfection. The kids had chips cheese and gravy and loved every bit with ice cream after. Unfortunately we never had any room left for dessert but will deffo be back for the famous roast they do and hopefully fit a dessert in then.

Working away and found this little gem. Had a great meal and a few pints. Staff are really friendly. It's like a home from home. I don't think you will be disappointed at all.

I went along with 3 friends and our booked table was not suitable but Donna very seamlessly moved us to a more suitable one. I had steak pie with chips and veg and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Very tasty and a reasonable price too.

Nice pub with friendly staff and good Guinness. The curry of the day was excellent in a home cooked old school way, as was the home made rice pudding.
Enjoyed it so much went back the following night and had the same again!

Popped in for a bite to eat. I was very impressed with the food. Belly pork was lovely and crispy, a must for pork lovers. The homemade chilli con carne was lovely, flavourful and plentyful! Great service and a lovely counrty pub. Will be back.

Quirky little pub with lots of character. Gammon was thin but very big, cooked properly with a perfect fried egg. Their chips are wonderful - crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle.
I'll go back again : )

Been here many times but this visit not so good for me personally. Was quite amazed that the coffee machine looked old and uninviting and no oat milk to offer at all. I swerved as I really fancied just coffee and cake and ended up with a shandy and pate.. which was very little and too much price wise. Lovely pub for the locals .. but maybe a bit more Tlc from the lady who served us, I noted the customer service awards … maybe she was not feeling great that day.

Called in for a beer while out walking. Nice country feel pub with a beer garden and play area. Indoors seemed really nice too but I only went to the bar. Felt like it could be in the middle of nowhere not set back just off a main road. Definitely on the list to go back for food and a drink when nearby again

Good food and reasonably priced. I had T bone steak and the wife had salmon. I like my steak medium to well done ( so not dry but cooked all the way through ) this was done to perfection and yes as you can see by the pics, I like ketchup on my chips. Wife had salmon which again was perfect. Can get a bit busy, so definitely book ahead. Plenty of parking So no worries there. Only downer on the night was one member of staff who was a tad miserable. Not sure what was wrong but hope she recovers because other than that, it was an excellent dining out experience. Will definitely be going again.
