Great pub. All the staff were really friendly. Popped in for one drink, ended up having a few, a game of pool and lunch. Shame I’m not local otherwise I’d gladly pop in more often.

They let their dogs bark at all sorts of times, for hours on end which is awful for the people who have to live next to them, and they are always on the roof the pub with no one caring. They gave me rancid gone off tuna while I was pregnant, and I haven’t been back since! The lady who owns this pub always has a horrible look on her face which makes you feel so unwelcome.

Picked this as a "half -way" venue for a meet up with friends. This proved to be a great choice. Friendly management/staff who had our table ready when we arrived but were happy to let us sit and talk (which we did). Good choice of traditional Pub dishes. Food was cooked to order and nicely presented. The proof of the quality was that every thing eaten. Dog friendly so next time the "boys" will come too. This seems the perfect place for us to get together.

Terrible food. Had sausage egg and chips. Sausages were overcooked hard and dry totally inedible. Staff couldn't have cared less. No apology just "well they were bought fresh today" no offer of rectification and a "huffy" attitude My friends chicken was also overcooked and dry. Wine was warm! Expensive at £19.40 for inedible food and one glass of wine. Very poor customer service extremely poor food.

Wasn’t great. ignored by the lady at the bar, she was too interested in talking to someone else and not bothering with us even though she saw us. To the fact we almost walked out before we were served and I would never do that. Ordered food still no smile… Steak was over cooked but didn’t want to comment as another table had already complained that the steak was over cooked. Was tasty and hot, so didn’t say anything. just not how I asked for it to be served. Guy bringing out the food in a hoodie was friendly, we went to the bar for another round of drinks again no smile from the lady behind the bar. As we left no thank you or any acknowledgment. Would I go back probably not, may for the occasional beer

Called in for tea after an afternoon out, service was quick, friendly and efficient. Food was good, tasty and plenty of it. Pub has recently reopened for food and would recommend, good to see a local pub improving 👍. If anything prices were bit high for type of meal, however with everything going up its probably understandable.

We visited this pub for the first time today and wasn’t disappointed. We had the Pork Sunday lunch and added cauliflower cheese, but didn’t need it as the dinner was huge. The meal was the best we’ve had in ages while out. At £8.95 it was a bargain! The people were lovely too. We will certainly be returning.

Sherry and her team cooked and delivered a hot Christmas buffet at home for our team as we didn’t want to go out this year. The food was excellent, we had a range of starters, a full roast dinner; beef, roast potatoes, huge Yorkshire puddings, stuffing and vegetables and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely being asking Sherry to do this again for us as the hassle free service was great.

It's been a while since I was last in this pub but nothing seems to have changed. The decor is still very tired and although the pub is lovely and clean and the welcome warm and friendly the pub feels as if its just waiting to close its doors for good. This would be a great shame. The beer as before was excellent and as I've already said pub clean and a warm welcome from the landlady. Please someone do something with this pub before we loose another of our great pubs !

Called in on my way back from visiting family in the area . The pub decor looking tired but pub was very clean compared to a previous visit. There was a a very nice lady behind the bar who was very welcoming and friendly. Had a lovely chat and even though not busy and the pub looking as if a part of the building site next door she was extremely "upbeat" and positive about the pubs future which was very refreshing to hear . Had a pint of bitter and was excellent . I look forward to calling in again when next in the area.

Always a clean, friendly pub. Ideal to stop off at for a very reasonably priced pub meal. Portions aren't overly generous but you can soon add a side or two on - the food is well cooked and presented to a good standard. Good choice of meals for a small pub. Bar staff are always friendly and approachable.

There's 3 chaps including myself that dine out and this is our new favourite place. The haddock is a generous portion, the chips are freshly cooked and a good plate full. Not keen on the curry but that's just my taste buds. Gravy is nice and we will be using again very soon. Lovely staff and the cleanliness of the establishment are worth a mention also.

We haven't been here for years but decided to try it again after our usual diner was closed and we were pleasantly surprised. Same friendly family service and same competitive pricing as we remembered. I had the eggs Benedict and they were nearly perfect, eggs not quite runny enough but the quantity, quality and pricing were right. My partner had a toasted tea cake and we both had drinks, mine a cappuccino and my partners a pot of tea for one that actually provided sufficient for three. We will be back again in the near future.

Went this evening 10th June 23, we have friends coming over next week and was looking for places to visit with them. What an absolute s**t hole The beer tasted like vinegar, children in the bar, no evidence of food being served. The place was utterly filthy cobwebs stained brown they were that old. We should have taken heed before we went in, we commented on all the dead hanging baskets. Didn’t finish our drinks, husband left his because it was so bad. Avoid at all costs, I don’t understand why so many good reviews it’s awful, in fairness we didn’t sample the food. Woman behind the bar was pleasant enough.
