Evenings are nice for professionals working or a few drinks with friends and weekends are very family friendly. It is lovely seeing the community come together on a Sunday.

Honest and friendly local pub. Staff are very welcoming. They have great value food and you certainly aren’t ripped off with the drink prices. They have a very large and neat garden area with a children’s play area and a sheltered outdoor area for smokers etc. In the warmers months they also serve fresh pizza from their outdoor oven. This place is just a simple, easy, honest, friendly and great value local pub.

I wanted a quiet drink with my friends but ended up with screaming kids running around the beer garden and the dodgy looking play area...loud boorish drunk blokes in the little beer garden, choking on smoke from a Pizza shed and loud traffic on the main road...not my idea of a quiet drink...still it may appeal to others if you like that sort of thing.

We chose this pub for a pint specifically because it is listed in the current edition of the Campaign for Real Ale ‘Good Beer Guide’ and we were not disappointed. This is still a ‘proper’ old fashioned pub and I say this without criticism. A small range (again, not a criticism) of real ales were available on hand pumps – quite sufficient to meet our needs. More beers do not always equate to better, as they may not be sold as quickly. The licensee served us, made us feel welcome and was full of bonhomie. The pub was the busiest of those we visited that day and is clearly well supported by locals, who included us in conversation. Food should have been available at lunch time but was not. The licensee was apologetic about this and explained it was a ‘work in progress’ and was due to happen soon. This didn’t help us at the time of or visit of course, but at least the apology was offered. This is a pub I will happily return to when circumstances allow.

We also had some keenly priced, good lunches here. Has a huge beer garden for summer time too. Very highly recommended! We'll be back!

Traditional family pub that does a good range of beers and lagers, the food is home made and served in good sized sensible portions. There is also a pizza oven within the garden area that serves up delicious pizzas, I cannot say enough about the family who run it, they are really welcoming and friendly.
