Bar staff vaping at the bar accounts for low score really not appropriate. People sitting at the bar so it was difficult to get served in between them. Customers swearing a lot at the bar in conversation and unpleasant to listen too. Inside could do with a refurb. Friendly nice waiters and helpful kitchen staff. Ordered Sunday lunch it was a big portion and one of our party enjoyed it the other didn’t. Pleasant sit outside by canal.

Had a fish and chips, my wife had scampi and chips. We asked about whether the fish Batter had milk in as my wife is lactose intolerant, they weren't sure, so my wife had the scampi and chips and hopefully they would be okay. It wasn't, it's had a really bad effect on her lactose intolerance! We think you need to start providing an allergy sheet to safeguard yourselves

When we went to the are the woman was having a go at and swearing at two men who wanted a refund. The chef was very rude with little to no hospitality. More cussing than cooking. Vented to us about people not taking orders. Shouts out meals, not ticket numbers. Many Holes in polystyrene, asked for double vodka .Really crispy outside of patty , almost burnt. Chips nice and crispy Pizza taster microwaved up and quite cold with an odd after taste. Very crumbly hotdog bread like fine sand grains. Worker drinking a Budweiser. Chef with no hair net on. Mistook an order and left someone without food. Closed to due too many orders, 52 minutes before end of service. Took someone’s order while they closed it from the side door. Every order took forever. Even a small tray of chips.

place nearly empty: fairly unfriendly clientele hovering at bar. canal full of green algae (not the owner's fault, per se, although it could do with a clean-up). some menu items not available. bartender wanted us to come inside, although there appeared to be "functioning" tables outside.. (early summer at time of visit)... we were served food in good time and a friendly bar lady served us fast when we arrived...plenty of seating inside with big tables. unfortunately, food portions on small side and battered cod was (almost) incinerated. didn't appear to be any real ales available. Can only award 1 star: I do not wish to debate seating arrangements on a quiet night out with friends.

Absolutely abhorrent customer service and severe lack of human decency. Arrived as a small group, a few with masks and 2 without including myself (exemption due to severe asthma). Within 30 seconds of entering the building 3 members of staff (2 behind the bar and one in front of us) aggressively yelled at our group demanding we wear masks. Attempts were made to try and explain my condition and exemption however I was confronted by the man from behind the bar who continued to ignore me. It wasn't long before all three staff members shouted us out of the building, clearly to the alarm of the surrounding customers. I would never consider returning to this place again and highly advise anyone considering making the trip to look elsewhere. There are an abundance of nice restaurants/pubs/bars in the area who are extremely welcoming and despite having strict Covid-19 rules they were able to calmly explain the situation to us and even went above and beyond to help us access the beer garden without needing to enter the building and providing masks for those who needed them.

Just had chips and 2 pieces of chicken and curry sauce for £15. The worst meal I’ve ever had from a chippy. Chips looked like the been sitting in the fryer for hours soaked in grease way too much salt dry fried chicken no moisture left in it at all the curry sauce was good but safe to say I’ve never eat from here again

If you are used to eating normal sushi, do not order from here. Tuna and salmon were extremely low quality, tasted watery, frozen and lacked any flavour at all. You can tell from the shape of the nigiri sushi rice and the cuts of the fish, that the chef is not a trained sushi chef. The maki sushi, the pieces of fish was so small, it was mainly rice. Wa so excited to find a halal Japanese restaurant.. disappointed was an understatement

Came across this lovely pub by accident... Popped in to get a drink in the day and walked into one of their 'cookouts' with the BBQ going and music playing... It was great! Food smelled delicious but we didn't eat as we had to get to an appointment... Would loved to have stayed though. Staff and regulars were really friendly.
