We popped in for a bite to eat on the 25th Nov, but sadly the chef was off for the evening, but don't let that put you off calling in here, the atmosphere was brilliant, proper old time boozer, staff were very friendly and welcoming, locals all took time to chat with us, the chef was off for the evening to enjoy the 3 fancy dress birthdays all being celebrated that night, well ? The costumes were hilarious, I even got served by a Nun, brushed past by a cow,I kept trying to chat up the the guy in miniskirt which just made the whole experience all the more funny, anyway, the Buffet came out for the birthday guests and we were immediately told to help ourselves 😮 So, thank you Ashley , Quetin, Julie and Jeff and everyone else in that night, we haven't laughed so much in a strange pub ever before. Kind regards Darryl &Victoria P.s, Victoria bumped into a friend she hasn't seen in 30 years 😮😮❤️ We will call in...
