What a find! Happened to find this gem on Google whilst working in the area. Booked it on what I later learned was the opening night for the new menu/restaurant side of the pub. The set up is quite unusual in that there is a typical pub bar area and a separate restaurant area so you get a separate food and drinks bill when dining in the restaurant, but it is very well run. The restaurant part was cosy and nicely decorated, and the service from the friendly waitress was excellent.
Fantastic food, massive portions, amazing prices. We had calamari, prawn cocktail and deep fried brie starters all approx £5.50 each(from memory). All were hearty portions and perfectly cooked. We then had the lasagne with garlic bread and the steak ciabbatta roll with chips. All around £12 per main. The food was perfect. Huge portions of lovely home cooked food with a side of chunky chips. The bread was also absolutely wonderful and from a bakery local to the pub. We couldn't finish our dinners and were very full and happy customers!
The chef/owner came out to speak to us after the meal and was so friendly and kind to us. He should be very proud. I honestly can't believe we had such a tasty and substantial meal at such a good price. I wish this place were closer to home but I will certainly come back and would advise anyone living close enough to go there...

Read moreHad my son's 17th birthday meal here. We were a group of 13 and we pre ordered our meals beforehand. We had no trouble booking and were sat all together upstairs. The food was absolutely lovely. It came altogether so none of us were waiting. The food was hot and the portions were huge. My nephew ordered the 'Son of a Gun' burger. My god...it was absolutely massive! The food was freshly cooked. Considering it was really busy the staff couldn't do enough for you and always made sure you had a drink. The decor is cosy and has really nice ambience. We had a server Jade and she was second to none. So friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely eat...
