We rang up to book a table, and they told us they could fit us in at 7.30. Upon arrival, it was very busy, we saw our table and sat down. The couple on the table next to us told us they had been waiting an hour for their meals, so I found a member of staff to ask if there was a long wait for food. He ansered that he wasn't sure, but the kitchen was busy. I told the group. By this point, no-one had come to us, so I went to collect menus myself. After about another 15 minutes, still no one had come to us, but the couple next to us received their order, more than an hour after placing it. At that point we decided to leave and go elsewhere.

Staff couldn't decide if we were to order food at the bar or someone would come to our table. Other than that a very lovely pleasant evening. Remember some change for the jukebox. We kept the pub full of music and were taking requests from surrounding tables. We will be back when we are in the area again. Food was lovely, we both had Sunday roast. Wasn't keen on all the fried parsnip all over the top of the plate. But I just put it to one side. Great selection of beers, friendly staff and a...
