Staff was very friendly and the starters have been delicious. However our mains came out cold. After complaining we got new mains and they were hot. Taste wise it was unfortunately very, very disappointing.

Several of our favourite dishes were no longer on the menu and background music was too loud, probably because we were under a speaker.

The gammon served to two of my party was horrendous. It was very fatty and the meat was very soft unlike any other piece of gammon I have had. Half of it was inedible. The steak my husband had was not the size ordered but very overpriced and fatty. The fish my son ate was very greasy and left him with sickness and stomach ache a few hours later. There were lots of chips perhaps to compensate for the lack of meat! The children’s meals were lovely and we wish we had have ordered more for the adults.

It was okay overall. There was a large group in the conservatory maybe that’s why the staff seemed fed up. Maybe we went at a bad time.

Lovely small pub with large cozy marquee towards the rear. Food was lovely, great range of IPAs and Lager, and a lovely attentive staff. Couldn’t ask for more, unpretentious and great value food and drink.
