Really tasty, home cooked style, good quality food. The service was spot on, not overbearing but attentive. We would definitely return. The pub has loads of history with tasteful decor. The interesting vehicular access makes this place feel like a hidden gem.

Lovely location by the canal. Could do with some better sign posts to get to it. Food was ok, but not amazing. Staff were lovely. The lasagne was a very small portion, more like child size. We

Burger was over cooked and the cheese not melted, refused and they produced a moderately better burger but very disappointing. Poor quality ingredients and poorly cooked.

Nowhere to sit. They had a new seating area which was cordoned off but people were sitting in it. We sat down and hot turfed out. No explanation to why. Never again..

Found by chance as part of our narrow boat holiday. We were able to book a table last minute. Waiting staff were very friendly and accommodating. We noticed it did seem quite short staffed and was very busy so we did have to wait a little longer for some things but they did apologise for this, and it was made up for by the wonderful food, particularly the sticky toffee pudding!

Booked an anniversary meal here. 2 hours before the booking they emailed me to cancel our reservation but gave us no reason for this cancellation. Tried to call them multiple times to seek an explanation or to see if the cancellation was a mistake but no one answered the phone. Thanks for ruining our anniversary plans

First time visiting today. We called in here today for lunch after a dog walk, we hadn’t booked and it was very busy but we managed to get a table outside in the sunshine. We both had the steak and ale pie, my husband is an avid pie fan and said it was probably the best pie he’d ever had! Piping hot food, fresh and fantastic service too. We will definitely be returning!

A lovely quaint pub next to the waterside. The menu selection was varied enough for both meat eaters and vegetarians in our party and the service was excellent. Unfortunately, they had run out of mushrooms for my side order but the waitress made it her business to try to find me some mushroom sauce as an alternative. Not exactly the same but full marks for not just dropping the bad news then walking away. Great attitude towards your customers.

We had a nice cosy table by the log burner in the corner. The pun is olde worlde and nicely decorated. A good vibe within the restaurant area. Service by Emily and another waitress ( didn't catch her name) was friendly and efficient. Nice array of non alcoholic drinks ( preferred after Christmas lol). We both enjoyed our meals, we don't eat meat but do eat fish and we both found something we liked. Unfortunately no mini cheese cake afterwards for me as they had just run out so we settled on a coffee each. Always enjoy coming here as it holds lots of memories of years gone by and the lovely setting next to the canal. Sadly too cold and damp for a walk when we came but always next time. The approach to the pub is narrow so take care there, as we saw a car in the ditch that had come off the little road. Car park can get busy but was fine when we visited.

We (me, my son, his girlfriend their 3 year old daughter) visited on a busy Saturday lunchtime. We hadn't booked but we're made to feel welcome and a table was quickly found for us. The pub had a great atmosphere and was warm and cosy (it was damp and miserable outside). Sophie was an attentive and friendly waitress and interacted well with my Granddaughter. The menu was varied and arrived quickly. It was delicious and good value for money. We will visit again.

Gorgeous lunch at this pub for my birthday! It is a typical country pub, cosy lights and yummy food. I went with my husband, dad and stepmum. I had the chicken burger, my husband had the gammon, dad had the pie and stepmum had the beef rib bourguinon. We also went for desserts, i had the cheesecake, my husband and dad had sticky toffee pudding and my stepmum had the eton mess. It was honestly all so good! We had a really lovely waitress too and it was really good value for money! Lovely setting right on the canal, although take it slow on your approach to the pub very bendy and probably slippy in winter. Toilets nice and clean! Cant wait to come back!

Food was great. Many things not available on the menu but what we did manage to have was cooked to perfection. The only down side to the whole experience was the feeling of being rushed. Just sat down and was expected to know what we wanted to order as we were taking our coats off. Then the mains were coming out as we were still finishing the starters. Same with desert menu and paying the bill. It’s as though they wanted us out before we sat down
