A local pub. Not my usual. Popped in after a Wake, 😔. Popular with locals and visitors alike. Food, no idea.

I would like to thank all the amazing staff that assisted our party when one if us became severely ill on Saturday evening. They managed the situation professionally and discretely while waiting for the ambulance to arrive. The young lady that managed the situation went above and beyond and we can't thank her enough.

Great vibe, lovely English b/fast next morning, only blip is the service, not enough staff, and, the staff available not deployed to maximum effect, cheated a bit got my Guinness in the Bricklayer's next door, and went back to the BT, I would suggest waiter or waitress service with a card payment machine.

Great place for a drink. It's been one of the most popular Cross pubs for years. Always has a buzz and good music playing. Went on Thursday for 241 burgers. They were delicious so went back for breakfast today. Food here is really good. Coffee is particularly good. Staff are absolutely lovely and very funny. Nightmare to park, so try and walk there if you're nearby. Dog friendly. Outdoor tables and a roof terrace.

Lovely place, with great music, a good vibe, been a long time since I've heard jazz music played at a bar, so it made a lively change, heated outside area, friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because I did not try the food, but I will go back and sample the menu, then I will amend my review.

Fabulous pub tucked in the corner on Parr Street, Ashley Cross. The outside terrace is a wonderful setting, one high table encompasses a fire pit, and there is plenty of seating as well as benches outside of the pub. There is also an upper terrace which I believe may have to be booked. The emphasis is to enjoy all the outside areas. Inside is quirky, but pleasant and the staff are all incredibly attentive, you don't have to wait long to be served and they offer table service. A truly nice venue to spend time enjoying a drink in Nice surroundings.

We visited this establishment on a Tuesday lunch time. There was outdoor seating available we chose to sit there and watch the world go by. Orders were taken at the table, but I would note you had to go inside when you wanted to pay. We both ordered Ham egg and chips, which was disappointing. The egg ( yes only 1) was cooked in a ring ( very McDonald’s esq) and was very overdone. No runny yolk as one would expect with this dish to dip chips and ham into. The Ham was ok, and the chips passable but sparse. I’d say possibly we made a bad decedent with what we ordered, however it’s not difficult to get this british staple meal right. I’d say overpriced based on our meal that day. I wouldn’t choose to go back. On a side note and this is outside of the proprietors control. We were bothered several times by shady characters whilst sat outside establishment. All trying to sell counterfeit or stolen perfume and tobacco. They are quite persistent and off putting.

We sat outside on a warm summer's evening and enjoyed a delicious pizza. I had the lamb, pickle and yoghurt pizza, an unusual but delicious creation, my daughter had a margerita pizza. Both were perfect. The service was excellent and the waitress was friendly and welcoming.
