Came here for a birthday lunch and the food did not disappoint, not only were the portion sizes generous but it was equally as delicious. Service was very slow for a Wednesday lunch time waiting 25 minutes for food and my brother ordering 10 minutes after us waiting 45 minutes for food. Other than that, food is great and drinks went down nicely.

Went in at lunchtime with my toddler for something to eat. Purchased the cheese pie and children's Chicken nuggets. Both plates were absolutely delicious. Staff were super friendly. Only a 10/15 minute wait after ordering. Very happy to make adaptions to my order changing peas to Beans on my dish and swapping an item on my sons plate with an alternative. We were allowed to sit where we wanted and had a lovely experience. I understand the pub is under new management and my 4 stars instead of 5 is because of a few improvements I would suggest that would make the experience better. They are - More vegetarian options. Looking at the menu I think they could very easily have more vegetarian options without having to change the menu. For example Sausage and Mash could have a veg alternative if they served both pork and quorn Sausages. The fish and chips could have a a fishless Fillet or halloumi filet. The katsu curry could have a quorn Chicken alternative or just have a plain katsu option. Myself and other customer tables asked for Mayo with their food so maybe just have the bottle on the table with the other condiments provided. The outdoor play area could really do with an upgrade. The current climbing frame has seen better days. I think a new climbing frame and perhaps a swing would be wonderful especially with summer coming I think the children's menu was quite expensive considering it doesn't include a drink. £7 for just the main meal means I probably wouldn't come here regularly as its not budget friendly. The last 10+ cafes/pubs I've visited usually charge around £6 for kids and this includes a main, side, drink and dessert. For example there's another food establishment 5 minutes away who provides this children's deal for £4.50 It would be nice to have a lunchtime deal menu. Perhaps main course and a drink for £10 or two main courses for £15 or buy one get one half price. Possibly an early bird offer between 12-3pm weekdays. Something along those lines. These are only little things that I think could make a great improvement. Overall the food, staff and atmosphere was amazing. Its just not a pocket friendly place at the moment for myself personally so I'd only pop in once in a while at present as a treat
