Decided to give our local pub a try havent been for a while. Lots of good seating in the garden and well thought out, although full ashtrays in a abundance, chose a table in the sun with no ashtray. apparently food was 50% off, bonus.

The fish was very unusual, since it was cooked fresh, with a homemade beer batter. Unusually, the size of the portion was very large for a couple in their 70’s. So no supper needed. Again another pleasant surprise. The cask beer was very good! It was somewhat undeceivable quite which takes a point of atmosphere.
