When my husband sadly died in late August, there was no need for discussion as to where to hold the Wake ……. obviously it was going to be The Jolly Sailor, Ramsey, David’s preferred drinking place for over 40 years. In his latter years he was even afforded his own seat next to the bar. If someone was in it when he arrived, they were politely requested to move. Stacey, the new Landlady, very thoughtfully placed a photograph of David, together with his pipe and cap, on the seat for the duration of the Wake.
Stacey was most helpful and accommodating and arranged a Wake far and beyond my hopes and expectations. On arrival there was a warm and welcoming atmosphere and the food and presentation was exceptional - the quality, variety and amount. Many complimentary comments were made.

Read moreMy first time in this pub only to witness a very aggressive man behind the bar, I can only assume is the manager of the premises shout and use profanity to a middle aged lady. The lady didn’t make any scene or say anything wrong to him as I was close enough to hear the whole conversation. First impressions are everything to a business and this was a lasting one for me. Whilst shopping in the community, I mentioned my experience to find that I am not the only one to have witnessed this behaviour from this man. Such a shame as this is a cosy pub but I’d hate to be on the receiving end of this particular man. Other staff seem nice enough but not enough to...
