Walked in... waited for around 4 mins. Someone was scrubbing something out back. Had a table of people sat in the corner vaping. So walked out.

Good range of beers and a lively social life - very good local pub and atmosphere for all concerned.

Personally I don't like town pubs and this is a typical one. Friday and Saturday evenings it gets quite busy. It is near the taxi rank, so it is convenient for a last drink before heading home after an evening meal.

As a female I can honestly say that this pub is a rare find, I walked in and the atmosphere and warmth was amazing, I felt safe and welcome and the drinks were great! There was no sign of trouble despite it being a Friday night and I could tell that there was strong rules in place to protect the customers.

The bar area is great with friendly staff and a regular crowd during the day and of an evening but it's best to use the toilets at Sainsbury's, Subway or even an alleyway late at night to avoid the horrors of the Gent's Toilet within "The Hags". I have often wondered if it's the toilet there that has prompted a few fights to spill onto the street at a weekend - although they don't maintain dedicated parking if a police car visits Market Place on a Friday night they are generally visiting The Nags.

Warm, welcoming pub which tends to have an older crowd. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Music is welcoming change to the everyday hits. Great central location and defo worth grabbing a table outside when the sun is shining and watch the world go by.

We decided to try this tea room for the first time after being given an afternoon tea for 2 gift card as a birthday treat. I have to say we were more than happy with the whole experience. It was welcoming, the staff were brilliant and the surroundings were very clean. We had 2 lovely sandwiches with a salad garnish. The salad leaves were so fresh, brilliant. Followed by 2 very good fruit scones, jam and clotted cream and more little cakes on the top tier of the cake stand . Tea and coffee was also included. Thank you.

Another local pub close to me. Always serves a decent pint of lager and seem very friendly. Very handy for parking at the station too and paying inside, cheaper than the station car park!

Me and my girlfriend went for valentines and couldn’t be more disappointed. I booked the table online and then had a call from the restaurant saying that I needed to pay a deposit over the phone, so I paid it. Then when I checked my bank account they had overcharged me for the deposit. When we got there the place had a strong fishy and musty smell especially in the dining room which was very unpleasant. We ignored this and was hoping the food would be good but it wasn’t. The prawns to start had so much garlic and salt on them and were tough to bite into. The main course fillet steak had a charcoal burnt taste to the outside, the chips tasted frozen and the blue cheese sauce was like hot milk with a hint of blue cheese. We decided not to stay for desert but because of it being a set menu they gave us it to take away. The desert was inedible they gave us 2 rock hard, Ice cold chocolate brownies. This is not what you expect for £150 meal!! Don’t waist your money or time going here it’s dreadful! ruined our Valentine’s Day.

If only I had read the reviews first!! Should have done myself cheese on toast instead, would have had more flavour. AWFUL!!! Tried one slice, the rest in the bin 😏

Lovely lunch with friends yesterday. We all shared a selection of starters (small plates) which were so delicious and beautiful presented. Mains were cooked fresh, peri peri chicken was huge and so nice. The only fault would be that the mussels main course should have come with bread - rather than having to ask for it (and pay 4.50 for bread and oil) but we had a lovely afternoon and the service was outstanding, the lady was super friendly, attentive and clearly loves her job - a real credit to you. We will see you again soon when we are back in the area.
