I have been here a few times but was rather disappointed at the last visit on Saturday evening. We arrived at the pub at 6.35 and ordered quite quickly but then waited until 7.25 before the food arrived, I did complain and asked to speak to the manager who thought that a half hour wait was quite acceptable and was not really interested. When the food did arrive the lamb was nice but the gammon tough and the sausages under cooked. The food is quite expensive for what it is. Unlikely to return again.

We stumbled across this place quite by chance and I'm so glad we did! The atmosphere is very laid back and the place is decorated traditionally with an almost gothic feel. The food was great with chalked specials boards. Love it! Might even go back this afternoon!

Comes highly recommended. Excellent range of foods, including a well-stocked Specials board. It manages to maintain a homely pub setting but with a refined restaurant edge. Would definitely go again.
