Warning for Vegetarians. First impression, it seems like a pub for regulars who appear to like it. The restaurant is dark and gloomy; needs a good clean, doesn't seem to have changed since the 70s. Went for Sunday lunch: the positive is that the food was good and plentiful. However, not at all interesting for vegetarians. There is no alternative to the meat, just a plate of dry veg with undercooked brocoli and overcooked potatoes that looked like pieces of charcoal which seemed to have been selected for the vegetarians as the veg on the other plates was fine I would have complained but had gone as guests of another couple.

Was told 2 4 1 on meals but prices were exorbitant. Gammon was £20 and steaks from £28 upwards. Even a Southern fried chicken burger was £20!! Prices had been put up to reflect 2 4 1 so you weren't getting any offer. Free parking very limited but there is a pay and display right by it. Wont be going...
