Unpretentious pub, excellent location next to canal, good value prices - we enjoyed the Senior Special at £7.75 for 2 courses. Good range of ales. What's not to like?

It was Saturday night and they seemed rather busy. They seemed short-staffed behind the bar and it was a bit chaotic. Whilst the menu is nothing special, the food was excellent.

Went for a drink but didn't stay. More a pub that does food rather than a food place. No tables laid up, looked dirty inside, smells coming from the kitchen dominated by deep fat frier.

Beautiful canalside location in need of updating and cleaning. Toilets always are the mark of a place - and these need locks on the doors and regular cleaning. Old school location that could improve greatly. Food basic. Menus sticky...!

there is no way possible you would be able to eat 3 Blue Bell Brewery belly busting meals. I desperately wanted a traditional dessert but after a generous starter but it would have been illegal never even managed to finish my delicious main. the food was freshly cooked and quite wonderful. This pub with a variety of ales and ciders is fabulous along with the very welcoming and helpful staff only downside we need to find a t-total mate to become our designated driver because I wanted to stay longer been illegal Please visit the hidden gem, which is the Blue Bell

A warm and friendly atmosphere and the food was delicious. The only fown dude was the wait in the queue for the carvery - but that was expected at 2.30 on a Sunday. Overall, an extremely positive experience, highly recommended!

The food and service are excellent but the place could do with a bit of refurbishment, especially the carpet. It is always busy so best to book

We went 8 people for Sunday Carvery and it was brilliant as usual, we booked on Friday to ensure the availability of spaces, because on Sundays is usually fully booked. If there is good weather you could eat outside.

We were not impressed. Sorry. Didn't like the seating arrangement. We sat under the television, which had football playing. The vegetables didn't look appetising, either.
