I'm ashamed to say that, even though I have lived in this area almost all my life, this was my first visit to the Pot & Glass. We had heard about the recent change of ownership and our party of 6 were keen to try the food. We had heard it was very good and I'm pleased to say we were not disappointed. We chose a selection of starters that we shared between us, all of which we enjoyed. I chose sweet & sour chicken for my main course, as it's a dish I eat regularly and therefore perhaps a great way to assess the quality of the food. It tasted wonderfully fresh and was full of flavour, in fact one of the best I've eaten in a good while.

Unfortunately however my partner was served a very overcooked steak and when he asked for the rare steak he had ordered the rest of his meal was microwaved so we didn't get to try the chips which looked to be the only good thing on his plate pre microwave. I'm really...
Read moreThis is a lovely pub. The bars are made from dressers and very ornately carved. They have some nice real ales these included Hobgoblin Ruby and to me the King of ales, Theakstons Old Peculier. The food is to proper grub. The portions are generous no Nuvous Cuisiene here. I can't remember the name but I had a chicken hot shot dish. Basically chicken breast flattened with tomato sauce, pepperoni, topped with cheese and Jalapeño. ( Chicken Pizza) served with large chips and salad. Awesome. Just to top it all off the staff are lovely and friendly. Dave the landlord hasa wicked sense of humour and is entertaining. Can't wait for an opportunity to...
