The Man Of Kent in Tonbridge and Malling

Travelled down from s London, and was well worth the journey. Shame that the rain prevented us sitting outside watching the fish, but the meal was great. Friendly service just when needed, meal was huge but apart from some veg ( that went home in a tub) everything disappeared. We had a variety of roasts, the pork was scrumptious but the beef a bit chewy. The veg were cooked to perfection, and as for the pale ale and bitter, it’s no wonder CAMERA approved. Even the icecream and cheesecake were wonderful. Certainly would return.

This has to be the friendliest most welcoming pub around with great food and very dog 🐕 friendly. Our first visit for a while but can't wait to go back.

What a find, stopped for a quick pint and loved the pub, great atmosphere and great outside area looking onto the river will definitely be back for food

We had the Sunday roast which was the best we have eaten in a very long time. Would definitely recommend and we will return. The service was excellent prompt and efficient and very very friendly.

A lovely venue with some nice beers and ales, the MOK burger was half a lb fantastic food. Book in advance is recommended

Went with friends for Lunch, warm & friendly welcome on arrival. There was a large party close by but no delay in service because of this. Nice Pub Menu to choose from & all very happy with out choices of Ham, Egg & Chips and Pint of Prawns which came with plentiful & tasty bread. Of particular mention the eggs were perfectly cooked and Prawns fresh & delicious. We also enjoyed a Bottle of Chilean Sauvignon wine and a Cloudy Cider,. Throughout the meal all staff were very efficient and gave excellent customer service in a friendly manner, we really could not fault anything and all at a sensible and reasonable price, how refreshing it all was, would recommend & will no doubt return in the future, thank you everyone.

We arrived to a vibrant busy restaurant and was ushered to our table by a very attentive waitress. The food being delivered to the other tables was well presented and inviting. Try the venison or cottage pie; excellent value with just the right portions. Clearly they have a top drawer chef on board.

This place is a bit grubby in corners and the furniture and fittings could do with updating. However, the staff were lovely and the food was tasty and good value. Undecided as to whether or not I would come back though.

Our family just visited the man of Kent for Sunday lunch There was 14 of us in total, The food and the service from the staff was exceptional And would advise any body to give it a try.

Booked for Sunday lunch, sat in the garden and it was great service, great food and a lovely setting. So disappointed that we were charged £14.50 for veggie lasagne as the veggie alternative to Sunday roast. You don’t get any extra’s, salad, garlic bread etc because it is. Sunday. The exact same meal appears on the regular menu for £10.80. When I questioned this as I went to pay the bill, the young chap just looked embarrassed & shrugged his shoulders, he asked a more senior member of staff to explain and she just said she didn’t make up the rules and that there was a set price on a Sunday. This explanation isn’t good enough. You just cannot charge 33% more for a meal on one day of the week!

4 out of 5 times they have stopped serving bar food before their advertised serving times The one time i did get food it was advertised as a baguette and arrived as a soft very sweet brioche burger bun A good pint of beer but anything else don't bother

Brilliant pub, lovely staff, low celeings, great atmosphere and the landlord Neil is excellent! Stella served cold and frothy, lots of craic. Couldn't wish for a better pub!

Excellent food as always 👌 Service and ale also great 😎 still need to write another 40 characters to make this a worthy review! Done

We have visited this venue many times but the roast today was impeccable… Meat was delicious homemade gravy and abundance of veggies Lovely cosy atmosphere Highly recommend

As always one of the few real pubs in the area. No fancy, overpriced, craft beers. No artisan bar snacks. Just the locals having a good time. Now has a jerk chicken stall outside and local bands that you can dance to. What's not to like?

We visited this pub for lunch based on previous good reviews. Unfortunately it did not live up to our expectations. The staff were friendly and efficient enough but the smell of chip fat put us off. That along with the dirty sticky tables made it an unpleasant experience. We couldn’t wait to leave. Nowadays especially with COVID I expect tables to be wiped down regularly. We couldn’t even put our elbows or hands near the table. The food was pretty average. Nothing to rave about but ok. Won’t be returning.

Iovely food and great service so pleased to have such a great local pub. Have visited twice this month and food / service has been great

Excellent pub food and good range of tasty beers. All staff are really friendly and accommodating. Beautiful setting right on the river. Couldn’t recommend this pub enough if you’re in the area!

Just had the best take out dinner ever. I had fish and chips and husband had braised steak with dumpling. Piping hot and perfectly cooked all at a very reasonable price.

Random lunch date with the wife to The Man of Kent today.Really friendly staff, very clean environment and respectful of social distancing.Great choice from the menu, we opted for the MoK Burger which did not disappoint!Two fully tummies and happy people, happily go back for another meal!

My husband and I visited The Man of Kent today for Sunday lunch and what a lovely, pleasant surprise. It’s a pretty little pub sitting along side a river with plenty of inside and outside seating. The staff were amazing too... you could tell they try really hard to make sure you are having a good time!Very Covid friendly too. The food was beautiful and good quality... we couldn’t fault it! We will definitely go back... maybe the summer so we can enjoy the outside too!

My wife and I having stopped by a few times recently for drinks, booked for Sunday lunch. There were 4 of us and each had the Sunday roast. The pub is well organised for distancing, the staff were all super attentive, and food was just what we needed (We have had a few “go to” pubs in the wider area for no nonsense home cooked style Sunday lunches close recently). MOK ticks the boxes so will be back. You will need to book ahead.

We were just passing through but the pub caught our eye so we stopped for some lunch! We were seated on an outdoor table right next to the river where you can sit and watch all the fish. The staff were so lovely and friendly and the food was delicious! Generous portion sizes and as a vegetarian I would recommend the lentil bolognese! It’s a very peaceful setting and there were social distancing restrictions in place too!

Had driven past this characterful pub a few times and eventually paid them a visit today. Great food and drink served efficiently by the staff. Wonderful setting on the banks of the river Bourne with its resident fish, even saw a couple of kingfishers flying along the river. Good value food, served timely, well worth a visit.

I visited the MOK a while back with some family members to watch the Rugby on a Sunday afternoon. After ordering some pricey drinks at the bar, I was told by the scottish landlord ("You haven't said please, young man. Try learning some manners"). Maybe he should follow his own advice. Having read some other 1 star reviews, it seems this behaviour is not a rare occurrence. Never gracing them with my custom again. Visit was a while back, but on principle I'm submitting a review, having heard other horror stories.

My friend and I went for a joint birthday lunch today, as we share a birthday week. The food was delicious. We were able to sit outside, despite the pouring rain, because the tables by the river (so pretty) were covered by gazebos or large umbrellas, and it was still a very warm day. There were lots of fish in the river, and beautiful dragonflies appeared when the rain stopped,A customer noticed that I had a flat tyre and came to find me, and offer me help. The kind and friendly publican (Neil) pumped my up tyre (only 2 months old) before I left so that I could safely drive the 12 miles back to the garage near my home. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this lovely pub.

This was the only pub open in the village. Landlond asked if a table had been booked, and when told 'no' he sighed and said he would 'see what he could do'. On being taken round the side, there were many free tables. Then he closed at 7:30, despite being the only pub open in the village.

glad to see Neil & Shelly back up & running again in these stark & uncertain times!what hasn't changed is the welcome & quality of food served in a lovely setting by the river bourne.please get out & support this fine establishment as all covid considerations met for outside eating/drinking if any doubts linger etc?recommended to all!

We were staying at the Hop Farm campsite, this pub was the closest to walk to that was open. Lovely position next to the river, many fish swimming around for entertainment. They had the social distancing spot-on with a one way system for the bar and all tables outside. We were lucky to have got a table without booking & stayed for a couple of drinks. Didn’t eat here, the menu seems quite reasonably priced, if a little fancy for our liking.

Great Sunday roast. Lovely river side and good service. Great all round pub with good beers on offer too

Great classic pub food with friendly staff in a beautiful setting on the river with outside tables. Nice selection of food suitable for everyone.

A lovely traditional pub. Serving quality food by friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere. Great portion sizes for children and adults. Slightly more expensive for us to go regularly but I don’t mind paying extra for quality food. Thank you so much we had a lovely family dinner. Clean toilets as well (always a good sign)

Had lunch here in Monday. Lovely old 16th century pub, so be careful of the low ceilings and small door. Nice warm fire and very friendly bar staff. Food was lovely and well presented. Menu was made up of traditional pub favorites and also a few unusual items. The mushroom and spinach baklava is highly recommended. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Had a lovely lunch here ...the owner let us park car while we explored area before it opened ....warm welcome and tasty food would definitely recommend.

We go to the MOK regularly and our children are always very welcome- their favourite thing is the fish pond and spotting trout in the river alongside the pub. Food here is excellent and there is always a roaring fire in the pub through winter. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Kids menu is good and the kids roast is enormous! It’s a small cosy pub so if your child is running around they risk getting hot food land on them hence why you’d be better bringing colouring etc and keeping them at the table! Ruby the dog is an added attraction too. Definitely worth a visit!!

We arrived on a Sunday (often considered a family day) at 4.30pm. On arrival my 18months old was very pleased to see her 2year old buddy: they ran up and down the pub making a lot of noise in their excitement to see each other: and so we were asked to stop them running about and sit them down: we did what they asked, even though it wasn’t in the politest way. We understood it was a little over excitement! We then sat with them in high chairs while they had snacks and played with some toys we had bought along: we spent at least £100 while there and as we left; around an hour later, who I assume was the front of house woman followed us outside to tell us we were not welcome there with our children who upset the locals and ruined their time there! They are not a child orientated pub were her words(even though they have high chairs available!!!!!!) I was shocked and appalled by this attitude and would warn anybody with young children not to waste time going to such a hostile place! Apparently children are NOT WELCOME!!!!!!!

Last weekend we booked all the tables in the pub for a fantastic birthday party for my husband. The food was absolutely delicious (we all ate chicken breast with cream and wild mushroom sauce, rosti potatoes and buttered veg with profiteroles and generous cheeseboards...). Many of our guests commented on how brilliant the service was and how much they enjoyed both the warm friendly atmosphere and the quality of the meal. In the group two of us are gluten-free and three are vegetarians and we all had our own plates that were just as delicious and individually prepared. It was the most wonderful, welcoming place to be and I couldn't recommend it more.

We were in the area and fancied a spot of lunch so looked up some nearby places and decided on The Man of Kent.So happy we did. What an excellent pub. Independent with happy, friendly staff and an ideal lunch menu. Yeah, about that menu. Do not look any further than the homemade Chicken Kiev. OMG it is to die for. Undoubtedly THE greatest Chicken Kiev in Kent if not the UK. Incredible. Thanks for a great visit.

This is a very old pub with very low ceilings so a good place to take visitors from abroad. Three of us had the duck starter and one had the pigeon. For mains three had the fish pie and one had venison. All meals were very well cooked and really tasty. The lady in charge that evening was excellent and made us feel very welcome. We'd definitely go back.

We booked a table for 13.30 for 5 people. It was a treat for my mother in law as she came to the area as a child hop picking. Our welcome was warm and we were shown our table. We ordered drinks and ordered our food. We ordered a range of food from their Autumn menu. I had the leek and potato soup, it was gorgeous, piping hot and in a very generously sized bowl. I then had the fish pie, never have I eaten a fish pie that tasted so fresh. It was beautiful and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. We’ve eaten here a few times but the general consensus amongst our party was that it was the best meal we had ever had there. Thank you. Xx

After goodness knows how many years (too many!) my wife and I returned to The Man of Kent for an early dinner as we did not want to cook. For a pub, the seasonal menu is quite adventurous and we found the food tasty and very well presented. I started with the crispy duck salad which was fresh and tasty; my wife had a generous helping of whitebait with a (?) tarragon mayonnaise, also very good. We both opted for the ribeye steak for mains. I have to say that the steak was not the best we have ever eaten, (variable thickness, rather overcooked) but the accompanying "jus" was great as were the shallots, spinach and fondant potatoes. The quantity was very generous and we could barely touch the side of carrots and green beans. We had a pint of Timothy Taylor bitter plus a G&T; to start with, then 2 glasses of red wine - a very nice Carignan from the South of France. An issue with my original red (oxidised - open too long) was speedily resolved. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere in the pub very warm - plenty of local regulars. We just could not mange a dessert, alas. We paid £66 for a very pleasant evening, and promised ourselves to return with a much shorter gap!

What a great place for lunch. The sun was shining and I needed to celebrate two years (to the day) of retirement ! Being a Thursday, arriving at 13.00 hours wss not a problem as there were plenty of tables still available. Fridays and Saturdays may be a different story and you might be wise to book. A pint of Harveys and a cloudy apple cider saw us to our table and some 15 or 20 minutes later along came the food. It was delicious and the portions were a sensible size - didn't leave the table feeling uncomfortably full.

Wonderful setting, personable publican, good variety of beers. Excellent food. Charming decor. Had a fabulous time.

My Partner & me had Lunch on Saturday the. 15-6-19 I Had the Rib eye steak served with chips & a dressed side salad. It was delicious & succulent..

First visit perfect Sunday lunch. Roast beef and roast pork cooked beautifully. Lovely side of fresh vegetables loved the celeriac bake. Attentive and very polite staff. Would highly recommend. Will return for an evening meal.

Pay a visit to the Man of Kent!You won’t be disappointed!!Food consistently very good and the Landlord and Staff especially Lesley are second to none.A great spot by the River.

The food was fantastic and the service really good.The Best Roast I have had in a while.It was a sunny day and we moved out after our meal for drinks and to watch the fish, The children loved it.

I visited this pub for lunch for the first time yesterday. Nice atmosphere inside, pleasant seating area by river. Staff helpful, food lovely. Will return.

Visited this pub this evening hoping to eat. It was early, 6.15pm. Told that as we hadn't booked we would have to wait to eat until those who had booked had ordered. Okaaaay, but the group that had booked weren't even there! They weren't expected until 6.30-7pm. So, why could we not order a single course meal there and then. Sorry but either you want the custom or not! In this case obviously not!

The is a lovely old pub situated by the river.

What a great place to spend some time. Great service and the food is ALWAYS amazing with a monthly menu - we have to keep going back! Thanks guys!

warm welcome great service lovely home made burger child:s portion enough for adult nothing not to like about this pub

Full of character. Don’t forget to duck when you go in. Food is fabulous. Highly recommend. Even bar snacks are good

A really warm welcome with lovely friendly staff. Cosy feel and great atmosphere .The landlord/lady very helpful and accommodating for our group of 12 walkers plus 3 dogs. Evenoffered to refill our water bottles which was very sweet . Food excellent and reasonably priced . I little more choice would be nice but it was done very well. We will definitely be back.

Called in for a quick drink with dog in tow pub was buzzing and a very inviting roaring fire and great selection of drinks was just what we needed. Met some lovely locals and very friendly landlord and staff. We were so comfortable we decided to stay for dinner and it was a real treat. Very nicely presented and delicious, sadly too full to have a dessert. Very pleased we discovered this lovely friendly proper country pub and will definitely be coming back!

Been few times but this one time the chef had reduced menu as it was hot only serving cold food and when we asked for something that is normal done we got told very rudely he doing cold food only with wait of over an hour I Left my group and ate else where- do not eat or drink here waste of time

We arrived after a long, muddy walk with 2 dogs, having pre-booked, and given a warm welcome. We were seated next to the log burner and immediately attended to for drinks. The waitresses were all friendly and attentive. The food (trad. Beef/lamb roast or veggie) was excellent and served hot. The pooches even had some beef brought out by the owner at the end - what a lovely touch. It’s lovely in the Summer, with outside seating, alongside the little stream (R. Bourne). A good selection of real ales. Thoroughly recommended.

This is a lovely pub, mind your head though, very low ceilings with beams!

Have been twice in the last week. Polite staff, landlord very chatty. Different food each time we went, all lovely. Sat outside along side the stream. Lovely setting and good circular walk via East Peckham.

We have known the pub for a long while and it has an enviable reputation in the area. Whilst it is imperative to book for Sunday lunch it is still possible just to turn up and take one's chance in the evenings (no food on Sunday evening).

Found this pub by chance on the internet, as wanted a pub next to a river to take parents visiting us out for pub lunch. We had a table right next to the river and delightful to see the many fish swimming around which diners fed odd bits of bread to.

This pub/restaurant is not that easy to find, especially without a GPS in your car., once you are there, you will be impressed by it's location and enjoyable surround. Enter the pub, note that the ceiling beams are very low and space is somewhat limited. The menu is excellent and well prepared, it tasted delicious, the prices are reasonable and the service is friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and hope you'll do the same once you find it.

A very nice Public House in a beautiful country setting beside the River Bourne. A varied menu to suit all tastes and real ales. Very welcoming staff and a good place to relax.

Attended the Man of Kent for lunch today. Not the first time I have been but have not visited since last year. I am never disappointed when I visit. The pub is set in a lovely location with the stream running next to it. Staff are friendly, service is good as is the food. I only had the prawn sandwich today on brown bread but you get salad and crisps with it as well. Food always tastes nice and good value for money.

Just passing and decided to have some lunch here x so glad we did it was delicious x The service was good and staff friendly which was also nice xxx lovely to sit outside on a sunny day xx my ploughmans was the best I've had in a long time xxx lots of it and fresh xxx

Having driven many times over the little hump-backed bridge flanking this cute pub, we thought we would give the menu a try and booked in recently for a Sunday lunch. We weren't disappointed. The service was great, and the chicken was cooked just as we like it. The pub sits on a little stream with a lot of fish visible in the clear water and provides an inviting environment for those wanting to sit outside, with the soothing sound of the nearby weir. This is a good place to take a visitor, to experience a taste of quaint olde England!

Visited here last week with some friends what a great place!

I came here for a drink with a great friend, we arrived around 8pm and at 10:15pm we were on our forth pint. By this time the pub had no other customers, due to this the bar staff (and I assume landlord) started making loud yawning noises to try to chase us out so they could shut early...advertised closing time 11pm!!! I have never been subject to this type of treatment in any other establishment in Kent...or the world for that matter of fact. Clearly a place that only welcomes customers at their convenience, not customer friendly or polite. I won’t be going back and nor should others...this sort of behaviour should only be dealt with by falling customer numbers!

Came for a mid week drink due to the lovely weather. Decided to eat and had a lovely duck leg and vegetable puff pastry with veg and salad respectfully. Decent but un original ale selection of coppernob, sussex best, landlord and doom bar. Great setting next to the river too and kind staff.

Went for Mother’s Day lunch - was very filling , had the roast beef and it was yummy. Loads of veggies come out with it. Bargain for the price. Had the honeycomb cheesecake too and it was to die for!

This is the first time we have been and stopped on way back from the Hop Farm for a late Saturday lunch and had a lovely meal. Staff are extremely friendly and food and service excellent.

We called in today with a young Italian friend and her Mum. The food was especially good, I had Hake & chips, cooked superbly with the best chips ever, and I don't recall what our friends had but it was that good they finished before me. Giulia's Mum has a dairy allergy so they went out of their way to advise her of what was suitable. Two fraught beers on handpump and a very helpful landlady. 10 out of 10.

Stopped outside while checking for directions and decided to pop in for lunch. We were found a nice table. Sunday lunch menu was great all very fresh food and very hot. Excellent dessert too. Would visit again if in the area.

Great pub, good selection of very delicious ales, great selection of food (generous portions at reasonable prices). A welcome setting, pleasant staff and a comfortable and cost atmosphere.

We have been here quite a few times over the last year and always had good food but had noticed...

Neil y Shelly a mis hijas lo fantástico día tuvimos anfitriones genial! ! ! ! Lo recomiendo para cualquier ocasión especial o la cena y unas cervezas

Teniendo en cuenta que llegamos a pie el domingo pasado, llegamos alrededor de las 12 del mediodía sin reserva y tuvimos una cena muy agradable, fuera asado junto al río. Llegando en coche este domingo a las 11. 30 con vistas a pasear al perro en primer lugar, se acercó a la casera y me dijeron que el pub estaba lleno y nos hicieron sentir muy incómodos. Plazas de aparcamiento son claramente una prima de aquí y sospechosos de orientarlas. Afortunadamente para el pub, que parecen ser lo suficientemente ocupado para no perder nuestro negocio.

En primer lugar, importa tu cabeza, antiguo encantador pub país junto a un río, una buena selección de cervezas y un menú para satisfacer todos los gustos. Fui por el especial, que fue magnífico mok, 2 hamburguesas hechas a mano cubiertas con buena calidad de bacon y cubierto con queso, lo que no gusta!

Lovely Kentish village pub alongside a river . Excellent for a pint of beer and lunch. A rural location between Tonbridge and Hadlow - return visit very soon

the views are lovely and the staff are lovely thought i had the fish of the day an chips which was cooked to perfection - i never had such a lovely pub classic before. However, my boyfriend order the ham egg and chips which was nearly the same price and the basically gave him some chips two fried eggs and two pieces of ham (not the cooked fried ham you would expect from a pub) it was like ham you could buy chilled at sainsburys... and only two pieces!!! - such a shame especially as these and two diet cokes cost £30!!!!!!!!

We had a table near the window which is better for mum as her sight is not good. The surroundings are pleasant and the pub was not very busy so we had the undivided attention of the staff. The meal was good as it has been in the past.

I went for a birthday lunch with my wife, daughter (her birthday ) and baby granddaughter.My daughter and I both ordered the ploughman's. I had pork pie and paid extra for some cheese. My daughter had ham. I thought I would get a whole pork pie for the money but all I had was two small slivers. My daughter had a few slices of thin ham.It is a shame the pub tries to stint on these meals because my wife's swordfish was excellent. When I challenged the landlord he over-reacted, said 'I don't expect to be spoken to like that ' and told his barmaid to refund the cost of my pork pie ploughman 's.Rather spoilt the occasion. Still, the refund was enough for the second star.

If you look at this on Streetview , you can see the outside area overlooks the river. It's a great location for sitting out in the sun and eating/drinking. There are huge carp , also a pike , and some ducklings there when we visited, and the water is clear and shallow.Right opposite is an old water mill and you sit there with the sound of water cascading down , so it's a lovely area.I had a burger which came with chunky real chips and salad. The burger was very good and the whole lot quite filling.It may be a bit out of the way , but worth it I'd say.

Called in with my daughter for lunch sat outside by the river beautiful sunshine. Had their chicken snitchsel absolutely lovely covered in a sauce with double cooked chips and lovely fresh salad. Reasonably priced but cooked fresh succulent chicken Would recommend this pub.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with the dog in tow. Food was lovely with plenty of it and arrived quickly, was reasonably priced for £11 each recommend the Yorkshire puddings!

Wonderful food in a very old, very well kept pub next to a stream full of fish. Really lovely, well worth a visit! Got good romance points!

We had been meaning to go here for a while so decided to call in whilst in the area. It's a real old pub in every sense, low ceilings and open fire. If it's a nice day they have a lovely beer garden over looking the river. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the food is tasty.

A pub with a welcoming landlord, well kept beers and tasty food, it ticks all the boxes for me. Delightful garden with a river full of fish to entertain you, also some interesting bird life.

Went again just had a drink outside and sat by the river. Lovely to relax and watch the ducks and fish. Easy walk from the village. Drinks price a tad high but great service.

Was in the area and we needed some lunch so we checked TA and found this little gem. Fabulous old pub dating back to the 17th century where they were obviously a lot shorter than we are now as this is a very traditional place with small doors and low beams to avoid. We were welcomed and showed to our table (which aren't that many of) promptly and drinks order taken. Menu has the perfect amount of options and there was some interesting specials. For us, we would say the food was very much 'home-cooked', delicious and good value. Couldn't really fault it and if we are ever out this way again we would not hesitate to pop-in for lunch or dinner.

Arrived as in the past before opening hours and prepared to go for our country walk before lunch. Publican came out of pub and sarcastically waked if we were just going to leave our car there. Explained that we were off for a walk and would return for lunch. He demanded that we move our car. Reminded that the pub was advertised in the Walks from West Kent pubs book series only to be told that that was an old publication. Obviously not welcoming walkers anymore. We left, parked,walked and ate elsewhere ... His loss not ours. Never again and will tell all our fellow walkers.

I've been to this pub several times in the summer and winter and love it!The staff are lovely and friendly and the food is amazing! Especially the pint of prawns.Would highly recommend

The Man of Kent is an amazing place. Staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a party of 5 and a baby. They did everything to make sure our experience was fab!!!!! We shall 100% return. Oh and food is out of this world 5*!!!!!

Very lovely place by the river which is filled with fish (chub)Food very nice.Good beer ..Proper old pub with a lovely feel..

I am not a regular reviewer here, but when you find a hidden gem like this, it should be applauded. Lovely old country pub, with a warm welcome & a log fire. The menu is regularly updated, and infinitely more than just "pub grub". While there is traditional pub fare to be had, which is very tasty, a lot of the dishes would be very well received in a "fine dining establishment"....The service is friendly and attentive, great wine list, and superb food every time ! All that combined with very reasonable pricing too.

Just had an amazing meal. Love everything about this pub but especially the food which is so much better than the usual pub grub. The Christmas menu is so good. I had rib eye steak with cottage pie and red wine jus. My wife had the rack of lamb. Starters and sweets too excelled
