This pub has stopped selling food and is just a pub, no mention anywhere on the website. Poor.

I used this site to book a table of six to have a meal there with friends this week. Despite receiving an email reminder about my booking when I arrived with my friends I was told that they would not be serving any food and that they had no idea about my booking and said the current manager has no access to the website. Not very helpful or organised and won’t be going again .

We travelled to the restaurant with friends having made an online booking only to find the restaurant was no longer in use. It was now only a pub. The website is still active despite this and still sends out reminder email and requests to review. Not impressed.

We pre-booked a table for 2 in order to enjoy our lunch at the canalside restaurant. We were treated very well and given a suitable table that met our needs. We were particularly impressed with advice given to us about the meal sizes as the server could easily have recommended the higher priced portions. The small sizes were perfectly adequate. The fish and chips were very nice indeed. Unfortunately, the dessert menu was limited but we found something that appealed.

We came on Thursday 10th November for a celebratory birthday meal. We were disappointed at the lack of options on the menu. It seemed a little basic to the point where we actually asked is this the right menu for evening meals. We ordered and when the food came the portion sizes seemed smaller than you would expect. They had also forgotten to put my order through so I sat watching the rest of the group eat whilst I waited for mine to cook. The ambience of the pub is lovely, but the menu does need looking at. It let's it down .

Excellent Sunday roast! Booked for late Sunday afternoon & we were very happy to be served freshly cooked food, will definitely visit again soon and recommend to friends.

Tea with a friend on Saturday. Service great, staff friendly and steak burger lovely and well worth the money.

Mark Ashcroft

Lovely pub, clean and extremely friendly staff, food was amazing and well worth another visit

Jen

Had a lovely meal here on a Friday lunchtime with family. No problems with getting a lovely table with a view out to the canal side. Service was prompt and didn't wait long for food. Ordered from the Market Menu which made the whole cost quite reasonable and the food was delicious. Although it was quiet when we first arrived (we like to eat early), it wasn't long before it was looking pretty busy.

Lorna

Regularly call for a drink on a sunny day but not eaten there for a while. The food didn’t disappoint as the steak burger and Halloumi burger were delicious, although we did have to wait a very long time for our second course (pudding) chosen on the 2 course Sunday menu despite ordering with the main course. We had to tell the staff we were still waiting despite our main dish being cleared away 30-40 minutes previously.
