Been going to the REV [as locals call it] for the past 15 years. The staff have always been superb nothing is to much trouble. The menu changes every 6 months and is a mixture of new and old classics and there is a specials board. They also have a monthly special which consists of a meal and a pint. For rugby/football fanatics they have a large screen TV which you can request to be on, we go down and book a table for about 20 on the champions league at the atmosphere is fantastic. If you like rugby the world cup in the REV is unbelievable special dishes put on for the game.

When arriving at The Reverend James the place was as if it was in the country. its a small pub but with a lot to offer when myself and partner walked in we were greeted by a young bar man who recommended the bread of heaven bitter and for my lovely wife a glass of house wine. he showed us to the table and gave us time to look over the menu there specials board was a variety of classic and new dishes but the thing that caught my eye was the wild mushroom and goats cheese starter and my wife had a prawn and crayfish cocktail. they were served within minutes and was full of flavour not disappointing at all. then for main course I had no trouble ordering a full rack of pendering whisky ribs with a homemade bbq sauce which was divine a deep full flavoured sauce and my partner had the Caerphilly and leek stuffed chicken with a light red wine sauce and tasty peppercorn mash. after all that being impressed with the first two courses how could we resist a third we both decided to try the homemade apple and pear oat crumble with a vanilla ice cream which did not disappoint either. the waiter then brought us two coffees which completed our meal. i would say the atmosphere in the establishment was calm and inviting and would soon be paying them a visit back .
