I was fortunate to have the Manager's Special 4.99 for fish, chips, and garden peas.
I also had a portion of onion rings and a side order of roasted vegetables. The main meal was good, but the sides weren't the best.
The Shipyard craftbeer was very good, too.
Just over £11.00 for the filling feast.
Sunday night is quiz night.
Well, it's a weatherspoons pub, so it does what it says 'on the tin'. A wide menu selection, with a soft drink or beer for £10 or less. Curry, pizzas, burgers, fish, and chips. Ice cream, etc. The place is huge, with lots of smaller areas that all flow into one another. There is a pay and display car park at the side, but be careful parking here as I got a parking ticket. The festival car park is only 1 minute walk away and free after 6 pm. You order and pay at the bar for food. You need to tell them your table number, or you can download the app and order from your phone while sitting at the table. There is free WiFi that you have to sign in to use. It's never too busy in the evenings. You can usually get a table. There are tvs always on and fruit machines if you don't value your money..
Well what can I say? This really is a lovely big pub, full of little rooms here and there with a single large space in front of the bar. The staff were very friendly and happy to share a laugh. Out the back is quite a respectably sized beer garden with plenty of space to enjoy the late summer sunshine. As per usual, the fish & chips was excellent and totally NOT greasy as you seem to get a a lot of spoons. If you have difficulty walking or are in a wheel chair, take note that there are a couple of steps throughout, but you can probably get where your going by just choosing the best door. The Guinness was also excellent.
