We were recommended this pub for great food , however I think the people that recommended it haven't been since new management took over....
First impressions we were not expecting a kids bouncy castle outside and screaming kids, outside this village pub ,the entrance was blocked with a sign saying use the other door, not a very welcoming entrance.
The menu choice was very poor burgers ,more burgers, fish and chips, a couple of salads and one choice of pasta dish .. nothing jumped out at us .

Hopefully the minor issues experienced are just teething problems and things will...

I checked with a lady organising who confirmed where we could sit. Said we were happy to join in. She said great it’s for charity open to anyone. Had we seen the poster. Got second drink. AFTER paying I was told by the young girl behind bar we were not wanted and asked to leave as soon as possible as she wanted our seats for someone else. I said we were joining in the quiz and had been told it was ok. She said we will see about that, we don’t want you. Drink up and go. Rude is not the word. Her mum needs to teach her...
