Lovely food, waitress friendly, second waitress feeling the need to come over and complain that "we were in an area with no table service" ruined it, especially as it was after we ordered and made no difference to her. Place recommended just try to not get the rude waitress with the overly long nails. Sorry.

Lovely catch up with friends today. It was a warm sunny day and, although we'd booked to sit inside the restaurant, staff were more than willing to let us sit outside. Food was good and we were looked after really well by Zara and Carl. We eat here fairly regularly, as a group, and always feel comfortable and never feel that we are being pushed to vacate our table.

Haven't been to this pub for a while as previously the service was poor. Went to give it another try and found the service to be top notch. Food was delivered quickly and tasted good. The beer was cold and tasty The surroundings were decent if a bit worn. Good car park close to the main road. I intend to visit again soon.

I was in here for the Leeds match on Saturday. Great venue for the match, we were inside. The bar staff were excellent despite being so busy. They all deserve a bonus. Also, want to give a shout out to the doorman, who was calm and assured with his work, even though his team lost.

Had the beef roast, - the beef, carrots and potatoes were a little hard to cut, could’ve done with a steak knife. They put me and my elderly mum right by the door. People kept coming in and out and I was getting irritated by having to keep shutting the door to save my mum sitting in a draught. We had to move in the end. Very dog friendly place. Staff fairly attentive but we must’ve had about 5 people serving us. They didn’t seem to realise we had had to move tables. The place was heaving as we left, it seems very popular. Not sure we will return as there are lots of other places to try. But was pleasant for a change. We had 3 courses and enjoyed it generally. Just a few quibbles.

As always a cosy atmosphere. The staff were very efficient and the young lady who served us was exceptionally polite and attentive. The food was well prepared, well presented and tasty. Only downside is the price of drinks but that is to be expected as this is a restaurant that sells drinks more than a pub that sells food

Had christmas dinner here. The food was ok, a bit more attention to detail would be good and as we were last sitting it felt rushed at the end. The beef wellington had seen better days however they were able to swap it for a good pork belly. Zara our waitress was lovely and attentive so 5 stars for her. Just a few things that could be better but we had no washing up to do so all good there 😀

A lovely cosy pub with period features and lots of old photos to look at. Fabulous food. Absolutely delicious! So full of flavour and presented nicely. We had the Signature Burger, and the Hot Beef Brisket Sandwich, followed by the Mango and Passionfruit Eton Mess, and the Sticky Toffee Pudding. We had booked a table in the dog friendly area and we sat in the upper section. It was quiet in this area as most people sat in the main area where there was an open fireplace. We ordrered our mains and desserts at the same time at the bar along with our drinks. (Ordering through the app is available too). Service was fast for our main course. It took a little while for our plates to be cleared and our desserts to be served. They were definitely worth the wait though! My Eton Mess was to die for! It has its own car park, with two disabled parking spaces.

Not much about the atmosphere rather just your simple fish and chips joint. Was my go to lunch place every day as I was working from Gnosall. The food was freshly cooked using fresh ingredients. The staff were always happy and welcomed me with a smile. I'd usually just get a meal deal that came with a generous portion of chips either kebab or fish and a drink. Was enough food for two actually.
