Moorcock Inn in County Durham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We were trying to find somewhere to eat late on our travels home back to the dales when we came across the moorcock on trip advisor. Finding somewhere to eat past 7pm now seems a rarity. The service was outstanding, all staff were great to chat to and really helpful. The food was out of this world, we are big meat eaters and also farmers therefore to find somewhere that produced their own meat was amazing! There needs to be more places like the moorcock. We had the chicken Parmo & fillet steak and they were both delicious. No improvement needed in this field!! We will definitely be making sure we return for some tea on our next travels over this way.

We were looking forward to a meal here. We both ordered the Shorthorn steaks, we had a choice of Fillet or Sirloin (same price), which I thought odd, as fillet is generally a more expensive cut. The meat that came was DEFINITELY NOT Fillet or Sirloin it was 50% gristle. In my youth I had worked in a butchers, I know my meat! My hubby explained to the waitress, who discounted some of our meal, and told the chef. We could see him behind the bar, but he didn't even look in our direction. We had tried to eat here last year, it was Grouse Season, the restaurant was very busy, we waited 1 hour for our order, we left in the end! Definitely avoid if you fancy a steak! Will not be returning.

Firstly. The staff. Exceptional service. Attentive and friendly. Felt at ease immediately. We had a roast beef Sunday lunch. I believe the beef was raised locally, prize winning herd and wow ! Melted on the tongue and packed with Teesdale flavour. Delicious meal. The farmer and the chef. What a team. We stayed 2 nights in a lovely room. Clean and warm. The shower was the best hotel shower experience I have ever had. The breakfast buffet was gorgeous. My daughter stayed in a glamping pod, again. Brilliant, inexpensive and very cosy, the facilities on site are also exceptional. What a place. And the views of upper Teesdale. Breathtaking. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A traditional country inn with all the charm you would expect and with all the mod cons you would wish. The staff are welcoming and friendly; the service excellent and the very reasonably-priced food is superb and comes in generous "Northern portions". Our room was spotless and very comfortable. Thoroughly recommended and five stars in every category.

A lovely country inn with accommodation, camping huts and a large function room, my group and I used them all this weekend. We were looked after so well by friendly staff and hosts. The rooms and the hilltop huts were comfortable, clean and well appointed, the camping facilities were very good. The bar was well stocked and very reasonably priced. The cozy restaurant provides excellent traditional, homemade pub meals, make sure you leave room for a pudding, delicious! Surrounded by wildlife and spectacular views across the dales we really couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommended.

Stayed at the adjacent Hill top huts for the weekend so I ate multiple times at this inn. Yes, the menu is a little limited, however, the quality is excellent and reasonably priced. They try to locally source a lot of their ingredients and it is freshly cooked. I had a ribeye steak that would better any I have eaten anywhere in the world, I was truly excellent. Sunday dinner was great with plenty to eat, you will need to book for that! as they sadly had to turn folks away such was the demand. This will become a regular dining haunt for me...and a shout-out to the staff. very helpful and friendly.

What an absolute gem, found by accident- fantastic food and 3 course for £17 - went down very well with us all- tender roast beef ( from their own farm) fresh vegetables and gravy fab.

I have been frequenting the Moorcock Inn for years since the late 1970's, the food is good & the service is good, but what the 'decent' customers don't wish to hear is bad language when enjoying their meal.After lockdown & the sun was shining I thought I would call in to the Moorcock one Saturday afternoon for a beer & a little country air. Unfortunately, sitting at the table next to me were two women & three men-one of whom couldn't string a sentence together without using the 'f' word. As you would expect I relocate to another table to the rear of the inn where the sun didn't shine; so I left!I'm sure there's a byelaw stating 'No Swearing' on licensed premises!

The food is good & the service is superb, I'm not so sure about the table spacing.We have been frequenting this establishment for over 25 years & never have I been abuses by a so-called 'professional'. Beware of the Geordie NHS 'super spreader' (visitor).We all know how rife the virus is spreading on Tyneside, this is probably the reason why:-On Friday evening we visited the Moorcock Inn Eggleston outside Barnard Castle for a tipple. When entering the hotel I met a woman who was not wearing a face covering, so as you would expect I confronted her only to be met with a hail of Geordie abuse. She even had the gall to state she was an employee of the NHS & produced an ID to back up her claim. Apparently, she had asthma & thought she was exempt from wearing a face mask; 'NOT IN MY BOOK HINNY!'As most intelligent people know - we wear face coverings to protect others, so if you are not able to wear one for what ever reason don't mix in public places-especially if you are an NHS super spreading employee.

We have stayed several times at the Moorcock, the rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast is very filling and tasty. Evening meals there is a great choice and all good prices. The staff are all very friendly. We will return again

We visited whilst glamping at Hill Top Huts. Food was lovely. The parmo burger well worth a try. Will be returning. What a lovely little place

The Moorcock Inn was very accommodating and had excellent service despite Covid-19 restrictions. The food was excellent however it was very limited on vegetarian options. We will definitely be returning 😊.

Great food and great service as well.I have visited twice and enjoyed both visits.The Rib-Eye was excellent but so was the Lamb Burger!Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, who are friendly and always about.I would recommend trying this place out, it also has its own Glamping Pods. They cater for 3 to 5 guest and are excellent, very clean and well lifted out!Can’t wait to come back again...

The food I would say is good but there isn't a category for 'Good'. On a sunday they have a set menu: One £10.95, Two £14.95 or Three courses £17.95 So value is fine. Okay choices for starters - four to choose from. Sadly main choices are poor Roast Beef or Pork; Scampi; Nut Roast; Sausage & Mash. Four desserts to choose from and they ran out of Sticky Toffee Pudding so had Meringue with strawberrys & icecream and Ginger Sponge and custard. What a disappointment. It is the smallest portion of ginger sponge I have ever seen. You would be better not having a dessert and saving the £3 for the extra course and buy a McVitties Ginger Sponge from a supermarket

Visited this place twice during the past weeks holiday in this wonderful area. Saturday teatime enjoyed fish and chips and gammon eggs and chips. Both meal delicious and service excellent. Our first meal out since lockdown but we felt very comfortable and reassured with Covid measures. Excellent customer service and made to feel very welcome. Returned the following day for Sunday roast. Beef was amazing and full accompanying veg, spuds fantastic. One of the best Roast dinners I have had in a long time. Definitely recommend this place for great food in hearty portions.

The chicken burger was just a breast rather than an actual burger and was rather bland on a bun with just a bit of lettuce and one slice of tomato. The home made chips were very chunky which resulted in some of them still being raw in the centre. There was also not much service as they never came to check on us to see if the food was alright or if we would like more drinks. Once our plates had been collected we weren't even offered dessert.

Stayed Friday 28th February to Sunday 1st March.Food was excellent, good sized portions which is locally sourced with sensible prices.Staff were very friendly and accommodating.Facilities over near the Huts are excellent and well maintainedWe will be returning again soon.Has a big thumbs up from me

Had a terrific meal at the Moorcock on Valentine’s Day. Asparagus wrapped in smoked salmon. Steak done to perfection, melted in mouth, and a delicious champagne and raspberry posset. Definitely a meal to remember beautifully cooked, and served by friendly staff.

Sunday lunch lovely beef from their own farm tender and melts in the mouth with plenty of veg and gravey. Staff were friendly and very helpful . A nice pint of beer and all at a reasonable price. Will be back again soon.ps if you can get a window seat and enjoy the view while you dine

Called for a bite of lunch and disappointed to find they had a party in and were not serving lunch. However they said if we waited until 2pm they would find us something. The people in the bar were so friendly, we stayed and had soup and great chips. Very obliging people and friendly locals. Beer great too.

We attended their first wedding reception but you wouldn’t think so. The service was seem less and professional, the food excellent with generous portions. A polished service which will struggle to get better. If the inn is full their pods (hobbit hutches) are warm comfy with good external lighting and all you need. Just pack flip flops and a brolly if you’ll need the loo at night.

Simply the best steak pie I have had. (I have had a lot!) Awesome! Great beer - great atmosphere - fab value for money. Organic meat at its best!

3 evening meals whilst stopping at the adjacent excellent hilltop glamping pods site. Very well looked after on each occasion and the food ( stake pie, hunters chicken and gammon ) first class on each occasion. The ale was superb too. Venue handed kids and 2 allergies in our family brilliantly. Highly recommended!

We stayed at the moorcock inn last week. The food was fantastic(especially the shorthorn beef) and the rooms we great.

I had a lasagna wich was excellent and good portion with homemade chips my partner had rump steak wich was grissly ...I know I expect to "loose" about a quarter not half through grissle .the waiter was polite I asked for English mustard ....he returned and said sorry there was none ....what about French mustard...again none .....many people may have sent the meal back as mustard with steak is not an unusual request !?to be honest I have not had a descent steak post "horse meat" era 2013 ....my observations on the horse meat is the government blamed mince and burgers that contained horse .....but I've been told you get the ,same, cuts from a horse ....so I think we must have eaten horse sirloin .topeside and rump !?...ph my meal was "saved"! they did have tomato ketchup ....as a third choice oh and yes I didn't leave any meat ....I took it back for millie our boarder collie

Great atmosphere with friendly helpful staff and regulars .Making a lone traveller very welcome Highly recommend

Lovely Sunday lunch, great beef & plenty of it.

Stopped in after a day of sight seeing. Warm atmosphere, happy people, good service and good food. Four of us order different dishes and everyone said they were good.

We are constantly looking for new places to eat and we decided to pay a visit to the moorcock based on what we saw on the internet , the selection was great and quite varied which was brilliant as it’s difficult to find places that do things differently such as steak and ale pie and hunters chicken are becoming common place on almost every menu , we arrived and it is in a great location the restaurant is separate from the bar which is nice , we had sirloin, lasagne, scampi, and burger , all of them where very nice and with real home made chips which makes a refreshing change , the only gripe would be what is advertised on internet is not necessarily available on the menu when you visit , I would definitely visit again , very good value for money and big portions .

We came in on a Friday early evening and got a meal for two. There was a good menu without it being too extensive. The Moorcock prides itself on "Gate to Plate" and so features a lot of local produce. The selection we made were for Chicken, Ham, Mushroom pie with new potatoes and the Burger with Hand-made chips.

Booked a table for 6 on a Wednesday night. Food was as excellent as it has been on previous visits but the service was useless. From arrival to having our main course plates cleared was over two hours, we did not delay in ordering and are not slow eaters. Asked for drinks when our main course was delivered but they did not arrive. We were going to have desserts but due to the wait for everything else gave them a miss.

We went out for lunch we didn’t know where we were going through Durham and beyond we ended up at hill top Bishop Auckland and the Moorcock Inn we ordered the roast chicken and vegetables and for desert we had meringue pie with ice cream the staff were friendly and polite

Had better stays. Very unorganised. Turned up for check in at 3:30pm (Check in time was after 2pm) and the place was deserted! I finally managed to get hold of Jo the manager after several attempts and she told me that nobody would be there until 4pm. All the while I could here voices in the back room. However, I had to wait until after 4pm to check in.

Called in late afternoon with family for lunch. Very friendly staff, with good food at a very reasonable price. Would certainly recommend to visitors.

Had a meal here. Staff explained when we arrived that two large parties just in so may have a wait which was fine. Found the menu a bit limited and chips with almost everything, which didn't really suit someone on healthy eating. Both our meals were served hot. Beer was enjoyed and well priced.

Stayed over as part of the Britstops scheme in our motorhome. Staff all very helpful, food amazing, even paper towels in the toilets, top rating from us.

Called for an evening meal with a group of friends. We were shown into the back room, which at the time was empty and lacking any sort of atmosphere. The bar area looked full and boisterous which is possibly why the music was so loud as to be intrusive. At the bar there was a limited selection of beers (John Smiths or Guinness plus a couple of lagers and ciders). A pleasant enough young lady took our order and I chose the deep fried brie followed by steak and ale pie. The brie was fine but the pastry on the pie was wafer thin and tasteless. The filling itself was decent enough and filling. Prices were in line with other pub grub we've had. We left feeling a little disappointed in the whole experience.

Our walking group booked dinner at the Moorcock as it was close to where we were staying. What a mistake. Probably the worst meal out we've had for a long time.

As a group of 11 staying close by on the weekend of 8th March, we made this fabulous proper pub our base. Having visited the year before we were delighted to be remembered and were welcomed by both the locals and the Landlady. We ate here on both the Saturday and Sunday evening and really enjoyed the fabulous food and great service.

Arranged to meet up with 2 other couples for Sunday lunch. They were there before us so when we went to join them we were told that dogs were not allowed in the main bar. We were told that we could eat in the "pool room". We agreed or otherwise we would have had to leave. Ordered our food and it came very quickly, a little too quickly to my liking. Chicken very bland, stuffing lukewarm, "roasties" al dente! Veg swimming in water. Hubby liked the lamb but I would say it was not worth the £11.95 per plate. We are alone until our friends joined us in this bar.

14 friends were well served and fed, many with Sunday lunch, at the Moorcock, and would happily do so again.

Fantastic free motorhome park up spot. Food awesome and great clear night for stars. Recommended for a great overnight stay.

Another pub we stayed in for this village. Again the fools was local and excellent, the rooms recently refurbished were good and clean, and right next to the walking splendours of the National Park Attentive service

As country pubs go then this is what you should be looking for. As good as they get and the owners, Mike & Joanne, make it a memorable and happy visit. Don,t miss it!

Had a table booked for 1.30pm...food finally arrived at 2.45pm.

Thursday evening, and we gratefully grabbed the last available table in the bar/restaurant. We both enjoyed our choice of main and desserts, very pleased that the food was well cooked and plentyful, and sourced from their own farm up the hill. For us it was good wholesome food unlike many other pubs in the area that seem to have followed a trend for fashionable complicated and expensive dishes. I.e Proper puds here with custard!

the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them. The food was top notch and the location is great. On top of the hill overlooking the dales. The room was very clean and looked like it had been recently refurbished to a very high standard. We couldn't fault anything here and have already recommended it to several people. We will certainly be staying again when we are that way next year.

Arrived by foot having walked a mile uphill to this pub on the edge of Eggleston. Ordered a gin and tonic and despite there being several varieties on tge bar top was given a basic gin from one of the optics, my husband had a beer. Mistake 1 was made by the young lady who was clearly not bothered whether we were there or Not! we asked for menus and my husband asked about "specials" as it said ask about our specials board. He was told there wasnt any. We sat and perused the small "pub grub" "usual suspects! Another couple arrived they asked about food, ordered drinks and what specials, another young woman said there was a 12oz sirloin and italian chicken available, take a seat she said i will come and get your order, she did! She walked straight past us, took their order and at this point we left! HOW RUDE! This place needs serioys staff training, on a monday in August very short sighted for a tourist area!

We found this place on the second day of our holiday and came back nearly every day. Friendly and efficient staff and amazing food. The Sunday roast was amazing. They even put a curry on the specials board at our request. Would highly recommend.

Our 2 night stay was great. The food in the restaurant was superb and there was plenty of it. My husband had a pasta dish and said it was better than anything he'd had when he was in Italy. The rooms are very comfortable and recently upgraded.

Called for tea a couple of nights ago, had steak and lasagna both very good. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a good hearty meal.

We stayed for two nights and were very comfortable in a bright room with panoramic views. All the rooms have been recently upgraded and ours was VERY clean indeed and had all we needed.The farmhouse breakfast each day was delicious and generous amounts of tea and toast. Excellent value for money.A quiet spot with bar and dining available ( we didn't frequent as we were seeing family. However, the food smelt fabulous!). Highly recommend.

Called again at the Moorcock pub for Sunday lunch .Had a Lovely meal .Beef was superb wife had lamb which was very tasty. As it was a sunny day we sat outside and tòok in the wonderful views.Had a look in the field to the rear of the pub to see how work was progressing on the glamping pods. Some pods on ( see photos)Will be great when finished.

Lovely meal, very friendly staff and overnight parking for our camper in the carpark. There was no Vegetarian meals on the menu but the chef was more than happy to accommodate offering a number of choices, freshly made.

Ate at the Moorcock whilst staying overnight. Specials board looks very inviting with a wide range of choices. Good quality ingredients cooked well and substantial portions. Not fine dining but very good pub grub.

When we booked asked if it was ok to take the dog no problem as long as it is well behaved. Food excellent as usual especially the breakfast rooms great with lovely views.looking forward to the glamping pods up and running and a farm shop going on site.well done to Joanne and Mick for all the hard work

Excellent stay at this B&B.; Clean, friendly service, great location with lovely views. Tried one dish in the evening, best steak and ale pie with chunky chips I've tasted. Breakfast, continental & full English was very filling and Included in the price of the stay. Landlady, Jo and bar staff were very accommodating and helpful. Pet friendly added bonus.

This restored my faith in a Sunday lunch.

We went for the Sunday Lunch there today. It was a thoroughly enjoyable meal. The meat is sourced from the owners farm. They have a new chef and the cooking was superb.

As a party of 11 staying just a short hop skip and a jump away from The Moorcock, this became our “weekend local.”

We called in tonight to sample the food after reading the reviews and we were not disappointed. I had the steak and ale pie and it was the best I have had, it came with homemade chips and fresh vegetables. My partner had the special of lamb chops which he said was lush. The lady owner was lovely and friendly and was the regular customers. We would highly recommend a visit and are to return tomorrow.

Excellent service, food arrived quickly and nothing was too much bother, the roasts were delicious with all the meat coming from their own farm just a few miles from the pub. Would highly recommend both for meals and accommodation, having stayed here last summer. Will definately be back!!

Visited last night for a family birthday, the food was brilliant. All homemade and the taste was beautiful. All the family enjoyed there meals, we will definitely be returning. Amazing service so warm and friendly. Great pub, hidden gem

Food excellent having tried a few different meals especially the Sunday lunch. Rooms clean and comfortable with some lovely views of the tees valley and beyond from the front and views of the hills and fields to the rear.looking forward to stay again in the near future . Staff and locals make you feel very welcome

Went for Sunday dinner recently and it was beautiful would highly recommend.I know I will be going back.For me it's definitely the best in the area.Doesnt disappoint.The staff are very friendly too.Compliments to the chef.

Called in at lunch time with friends. Pub was very quiet but welcoming. We stayed for lunch and were rewarded with a very tasty steak and ale pie.

Stayed at the Morcock Inn Fri 6th Oct in my Motorhome. They have an area you can park beond the car park that is ideal.

We called in for Sunday Lunch around the 17th September. Shown into tap room as we had our dog with us. DID NOT STAY.

If you are looking for a gastro pub with fine cuisine don`t bother coming here, on the other hand if you want good tasty hearty food which is cooked to perfection and top quality products get there now. My wife and i ate there 3 times in 2 weeks whilst on holiday and every meal was outstanding, all there meat is reared on there own farm 3 miles down the road and you can tell, the lamb chops i had were as good as any i have ever tasted, there steak was full of flavour and once again cooked as we asked, even the side salad was a class act, not a few toms or lettuce thrown on a plate. Jo the landlady was a joy, even lent me a few books to read whilst on holiday, this is a pub where locals eat and drink and as we all know that is the best place to eat, a special mention to the chef in the kitchen who was not only a good cook but a nice guy to chat to, my wife and i will return in the future.

Had the steak pie.large chunks of meat lovely and tender in very tasty gravy. Proper home made chips and plenty of veg delicious

Went for a drink to try out the Inn. I had a couple of pints of Fosters. They need to improve the range of beers and get into IPA. The landlady was very friendly and professional. Will come again.

Fantastic staff and food great atmosphere real ale on draught low price drinks good bed and breakfast dog friendly area and open to motor home parking overnight free a pub not to be missed

We skipped starters to make sure we had room for pudding. We both ordered the lamb chops. Great choice! Three perfectly grilled chops, thick and meaty with crispy fat and just the right side of pink. Served on a mound of creamy mash and accompanied by cabbage, broccoli and carrots and plenty of thick gravy. A simple enough meal but perfectly cooked and I'm still raving over it 3 days later. Followed by New York cheesecake. With 2 glasses of red and 2 lime and sodas, fantastic value at a touch over £40. The venue is a pleasant, homely country pub supplied with meat from their own farm. Great place with very pleasant staff. Highly recommended.

Stopped here a few weeks ago on a Monday, all three of us had the Steak and ale pie, it was one of the best we have ever had! The meat was tasty and tender and was served with homemade chips, and plenty of veg.

Visited the moorcock again for Sunday lunch with the grandkids nothing was a bother to joanne the host and John the Chef. Adults had the own farm reared beef and pork with a large Yorkshire pudding 3veg and wonderful gravey roast and boiled potatoes. Kids didn't want a dinner just a bowl of chips not a problem said joanne . Big bowls of home made chips.the kids loved them.lovely food at reasonable prices and nothing is the bother will be back again soon. Ps if you get a table beside a window you have a marvellous view of the Tees Valley.

A group of 6 of us called in for Sunday lunch. Initially we were disappointed as we had a couple of dogs with us and were told that we could not take them into the restaurant despite the pub advertising itself as dog friendly, however they saved the day by opening up the function room for us and then providing one of the best lunches I have ever had.

Warm welcome by landlady and locals food excellent beer and lager spot on rooms have been overhauled to a very good standard all had a brilliant stay asked for a small portion at breakfast when it came didn't know whether to climb or eat it ps a mention for the night Porter he made sure I got to bed

Lovely friendly pub with excellent food. What sets The Moorcock from the rest is the fact that the owners are farmers and almost all of the meat is from their own farm. In particular they farm British Shorthorn beef cattle. This means the steaks are excellent. I had a rib-eye (off the specials board) and it was one of the best steaks, if not the best steak, I'd ever eaten. Liz had real homemade lasagne and that too was extremely good. The accompanying chips were proper home cooked thick cut real chips full of flavour too, and plenty of salad.

Lovely welcoming landlady, great food, great beer, great views, great accommodation, great pub. Made us 2 bikers extremely welcome

Called in early evening, had a drink and then ordered a meal. The portion was very generous as it was then the veg arrived. Fantastic meal coupled with excellent value for money and good cider. Will definitely be back, great find.

Visited the Moorcock after it was recommended by a friend and we weren't disappointed, lover,y traditional bar area, with a nice simple menu with extras on the special board. We had a steak and ale pie and the gravy was amazing, guessing it was made from the roasts they had done. Will definitely be back again

Been here lots of times, each time we have never been disappointed. Like the idea that special board changes. Great starters. Would definitely recommend. I would advise you book to avoid disappointment.

Called the pub 2 hours before arrival Jo was very friendly and relaxed about when we arrived. We pulled up into the car park there was plenty of space leveling blocks needed. We decided to eat in the pub as it was sour last night of holiday and we weren't dissapointed. I had the Dexter rump steak and have to say it was the tastiest steak I've ever eaten. It was cooked to perfection to. My husband had the sirloin which was also great and he's not a massive steak eater. There was 2 well kept real ales and a roaring log fire what more can you ask for. ☺

We left it a bit late we thought to expect to be served ie about 1:50 pm but not at all. We were made very welcome & not rushed into making our menu selections. No actual kids menu but don't let that put you off as you get adult choices from the main menu in smaller portions & prices. Kids had chicken goujons which were very good & not cheap processed chicken bits like most chicken "nuggets"(got chicken fillet). Local sausage & mash, Gammon, & fish n chips were the adult choices & not a bit left. Jo was a delightful host & the chef john came out to see how our food was. in summary 5 meals, 5 drinks very enjoyable & less than £50.

So pleased we found this little place out on bikes , sat inside and went again outside , very nice very friendly , we didn't eat only drinks , but the food looks very nice , and the coffee is only a pound a cup and it was actually nice ! Will be back !

We stopped off at The Moorcock Inn having found it as an overnight stop with Brit Stops (motor home stop over scheme).

We were on our way to Eggleston Hall Gardens and found this hostelry what a find. We had a wonderfully warm greeting by the lady host and settled for a table with fantastic views of the dales. We ordered lunch my wife chose the fish and chips and asked if a small portion was possible '' no problem '' was the reply. I chose the ham,egg and chips option. The food was excellent ,the ham delicious and the chips perfection. If you are in the area take a diversion and make this your food destination.

Stopped off for lunch with husband, I had hunters chicken and hubby had steak. Both were cooked beautifully and we were so full we couldn't manage puds! The dessert choices looked good though. The landlady was very welcoming. Would definitely recommend a visit.

The Inn has been refreshed and is bright and clean and welcoming. Good basic menu reasonable prices.

After a disastrous visit some time ago we returned to try the Moorcock under its new management, who I understand are actually the owners.

Chose The Moorcock over the Three Tuns because it's dog friendly.

Came across the Moorcock Inn on a tour of the North. We were lucky enough to take part in the 'Sheep Racing'Annual event for charity-which is held in the fields behind the pub. The whole atomosphere was welcoming and the food was excellent and reasonably priced. Service was quick
