Food was excellent, we both had Pies that were amazing and full of filling and flavour . Drinks were great but a little over priced as it beat records at £7.80 for a pint !!! Would recommend but watch the drink prices!

We thoroughly enjoyed our pies! We requested extra room for our pushchair which was provided. We had to send back a pint of ale as it didn't quite taste right but we assumed it was the end of the barrel. The mousse was lovely but wasn't particularly light and whippy which let it down a little but other than that everything was perfect.

Overall good experience but the price of a bottle of prosecco at 36.00 was quite high. We were not given a wine list so had no option to choose a bottle ourselves.

Our table felt a little crammed in between 2 larger tables and consequently felt dominated by their conversations/chatter. As for the food, the pork was good, but the beef was particularly poor - tough and flavourless. We both found the gravy extremely salty.
