What a wonderful pub! We got into Beckington pretty late on Friday, luckily we were very close to this gem, we walked in at 20.30 and asked if we could get food ( knowing they stopped at 21.00 ) and was greeted with a huge smile by the lovely bar staff, who checked and said if we decided quickly we were good to go. We decided within about a minute and placed our order - they didn't have what our son wanted ( not surprising at that time of night ) so he had an alternative. All three of our meals came out nice and promptly and were absolutely beautiful - proper pub food! The wine and beer we had with dinner went down very well aswell and i have to say the atmosphere in the pub was superb, there was a birthday party and the landlord got us all singing happy birthday, which was a lovely touch The landlord also made sure to come round and check everything was good with us, which was appreciated. A great experience at a lovely pub...

They did say they would look at it for the next guests, which we hope they do, but it spoilt our stay a little. You may say, why didn't we request a discount? because that would have been uncomfortable for all, and you shouldn't...
