This a place that never disappoints, even when really busy the staff still manage to offer excellent service. Friendly young staff who are really good at their job. This is a flaming grill pub that offers standard pub food, it's hot, well presented and reasonably priced. We come here often and dined this time with our grandchildren and it was really busy, thank you for a really nice time.

Fantastic place, on arrival was greeted with a friendly hello from staff, we found our own table and browsed menu, lovely friendly staff took our food and drink order from our table! This is unusual as with Green King pubs you order your food at the bar with your table number and pay. This was a lovely touch. We ordered mixed grills with added mushrooms and sauces. I chose Diane sauce and my partner chose peppercorn. The drinks arrived quickly and the food not much later. All cooked to perfection, there was no fat or gristle on any of the meats. The chips and onion rings were all fresh and hot. Have no complaints whatsoever and will defo be going back
