Heard good things about this pub. Good experience from calling to make the reservation to leaving the venue. Courteous service throughout. We were a party of 7, including 2 wheelchairs, on arrival we were immediately helped getting the wheelchair up the entrance step and directed to a large table in the corner of the pub. The pub had a 'friendly feel' about it and we soon felt relaxed & settled. Drinks were ordered at the bar and kindly delivered to the table quickly. We took a while to peruse the menu, which offered a selection of choices for vegetarians, non meat eaters & vegans, which accounted for 5 of our group of 7! In fact the vegans were spoilt for choice, which pleased them. A friendly young man came and took our order, happily 'tweaking' a couple of the menu items as requested. The whole venue had a great relaxed feel about it, ideal choice of music playing in the background, loud enough to hear, but not too loud, conversations flowed freely throughout the whole pub. We waited about 25/30 mins for our food to arrive, which was exactly timings we had been advised when we ordered. All meals looked well presented and inviting to eat. A further drinks order was taken at this time. Conversation was limited at our table for the next 20 minutes or so, apart from the sound of 'umm' a good sign that everyone seemed to be enjoying their menu choices! The overall opinion at the table was very good, just one slight negative comment, two people said the batter on the 'battered halloumi' was bit to thick & heavy, apart from that, everyone else happy. Even though everyone was 'full' we decided to order a couple of desserts for everyone to share, including the vegans within our group, another positive with the menu! Overall opinion from our party of 7, age ranged from 25 - 81, good choice, friendly relaxed welcoming venue, varied reasonably priced menu catering for a variety of customer needs,'service orientated attentive' staff. We all enjoyed our night out, would highly recommend and next time we visit family in the area we...

Read moreDidn’t have food Called in toward the end of the football wed night. Gave us drinks we sat down was cold so shut the window directly beside us. Not difficult-pulled the plug out on the side and Closed the window carefully as an old sash window. The landlord came across very annoyed. Saying why didn’t we ask be nice if you asked to close the window to which I apologized. But nope he was off on one about asking to close windows because if they don’t know it’s been shut they think it s locked and someone can get in. Well landlord some advice. Be nice to customers who are buying off you and always check window s and doors are closed at the end of the night !!! Rude and...
