I have Just enjoyed a lovely Sunday carvery, I had the vegetarian option of nut roast and my husband had beef and pork and it was delicious. Plenty of vegetables including cauliflower cheese, roasted parsnips, carrots, broccoli, cabbage, roasted onions and the best roast potatoes I’ve had in ages. Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent value for money, would definitely recommend a visit.

Fillet steak with homemade mushroom sauce……. Absolutely banging! Great service and a really friendly atmosphere. The landlady was super friendly and allowed our dogs in which was amazing. We will definitely be visiting again soon for another delicious steak. Only downside was we had to go home :-(

Lovely pub , good food carvery spot on but gravy was thin and watery, have been over for classic car meetings 3 times now and nothing ! Embarrassing when you have invited friends to join us please stop advertising events that do not happen , the the bar person not welcoming had a bit of an attitude even though we were pleasant and polite she was unresponsive and didn't care less , she was older bar person wearing an orange and white dress , again love the place but a bar person left it feeling not welcoming.

Went last Friday lunchtime (6 of us) for a meal. Surprised when we were handed one hand written menu between us. 3 ordered the fish & chips, they all said it was good and hot - other 3 had gammon which wasn't that good. Meat was tough, fried egg hard. For desert two of us ordered roulade which was very cold, verging on still defrosting. Cream came in a gravy boat. We understand the pub has been refurbished to quite a high standard to what it used to be likeand only recently reopened.but l feel that delaying the opening for a week or so would have been beneficial to the wait staff and chef. After all of the foregoing we will give them another chance once they have become more established.

Went here for a wake to celebrate the life of a very good friend. Easy to find with a huge car park. Buffet was served which contained good selection of sandwiches, 🍕 slices, quiche with other nibbles. I just wish a cocktail stick with a note saying what the fillings are and what the other nibbles on plates were. Quite difficult to choose if you have any allergies if you don't know.

Went Wednesday lunch expecting a comprehensive and good priced range of menus as seen on the web. Actuality was the opposite. We don't have a website was the response, that was the previous owners We can't change it. So beware of what you see on the internet. In practice the menu was adequate and all four dishes were fine with service pleasant. A little slow but assume that was because food was individually prepared and caused no problems. Good portions leaving no room for dessert! Get the web sorted and this will be 5 star.

I arranged a summer barbecue at the Dog and Gun for our local walking club. From our first meeting Charlotte was very helpful and accommodating. On the day of the barbecue we couldn't have asked for more. The food was plentiful and delicious. The lady that served the barbecue Jay was extremely efficient and although there were 46 of us, we were all served quickly. To top it all off Charlotte had arranged for a singer to come along and provide us with an afternoon of fabulous entertainment from the 50s through to the 80s. A big thank you to Charlotte and her team for providing us with a wonderful afternoon of good food and entertainment.

We visited here for a child's party. Mixed review which is why I gave it 3 stars. The outdoor space was really good, plenty of seating and having the bouncy castle for the kids was a perk. Ample car parking too. The food we had was ok, fairly priced. Cheesy chips were good, nachos were really good. We also had the roast which could've been better. The meat was dry and chewy, roasties were perfect and the Yorkshire pudding was excellent! I enjoyed the veg but my partner said it was raw (it really wasn't but all personal choice!). The thing that lowered the score was the toilets. They were really outdated and dirty. The ladies was dark with no light switch to be seen and the changing mat was almost unusable! Moving round a small cubicle with a wriggly toddler whilst trying to pull the table down and shut the door was really difficult. Why is the table in the cubicle?! There was also a dirty mat on entrance to the pub which made the rest of the space look tired. The staff were really friendly though and we were served quickly especially considering how busy they were.

Looks great on the inside and good food and service but badly needs investment into the external look as the windows at the front of the property are rotten and the car park desperately needs resurfacing. Update Feb 19. The front of the property now looks better with repointing of the brickwork and new bigger pub signs but the resurfacing of the car park is still a headache.

This pub can be a bit hit and miss regarding a good night out. Food wise it's ok. It's good pub food, nothing spectacular. Had Sunday Lunch recently and couldn't fault the attentive staff and service. The setting has a country pub feel. The bar was very lively and the weekly charity raffle is always a hit. Has benefited many good causes. The monthly Karaoke is a great draw and the party atmosphere is infectious. It's a shame the acts that are put on on subsequent Saturday's are under attended. As the acts are usually very good and well above average. Roll on the summer because the large child friendly garden is a welcome haven for outside drinking any day of the week.

What a turn around! Had stopped using this, our local, for some months, as the food was declining, the place was looking less than inviting & the food hygiene ratings falling. However, having been told by several people that things had changed, we decided to give it another chance & so glad we did. The food just gets better and better. The place itself has had a much needed upgrade, giving you confidence when you walk in that what you walk out with will be good!! Spare ribs are amazing, lemon or orange chicken is extremely good and great value. Chow mein is no longer full of grease, just delicious layers of flavours. Great job on the upgrade, long may it last!
