Excellent pie let down by reheated chips which were bitty , onions rings hadn’t got enough batter on them very greasy, no one did a check back after the food came out , but asked at the end !! Someone on the next table kept clearing his throat very annoying!!

Very friendly pub. Limited parking, but free car park 2 minutes walk away. Great pies, kids food and good selection of drinks. Good value and worth going, but book ahead.

Great food especially the gluten free offering, would have given top rating had it been for the fact we were seated next to a table with two dogs that yapped, dogs should not be in any restaurant, as much as we liked it we will think hard before coming again for that reason

Delicious pie, could have done with more mash potato/ veg. Also no vegetarian / vegan desert except sorbet, in the winter one would like a hot desert.
