Fun locals pub serving a few ales. Historic building near the canal. Outside seating. 🍻 👑

Lovely location, after walking around the adjacent reservoir we had an excellent meal and fantastic welcome from John and family The bar was dog friendly. We will definitely return .

Pass here often out walking and not ventured in since last year. Spotted the generously filled custard slice and went for it. Friendly people, efficient service and the tables are cleaned after each visit. Mug of tea and the custard slice was delicious, like they all used to be when I was growing up.

Took the kids, had a stressful afternoon, kids loved the food they all calmed down, had a great pint of Moretti. Staff were great.

Booked for a lunch with 3 adults and 3 young children. We arrived before midday and given a table right near a door way. Hardly any room for 2 high chairs and nowhere for the pram. We put the pram over near the fireplace to be told we couldn’t leave it there but was offered no alternative. Another waiter did eventually offer us a place to put the pram. We were sat for 15 mins before we were offered drinks and menus. After ordering we then waiting a further hour for food- which with 3 small children is no mean feat to keep them still and entertained. At no point did anyone apologise or offer more drinks. People that ordered after us were getting their food and in the end we had to ask- again no apology. No one came over during our meal either to ask if we were enjoying it. I mentioned this when we payed on leaving and a half arsed apology was given. Get the impression it isn’t very child friendly. The food however was very tasty, shame as our over all dining experience was tainted by the lack of hospitality by the staff.

Had a lovely visit to the flower pot on Tuesday evening great atmosphere went with family the waitress told us it was fish and chip Tuesday we all had the special it was lovely and for the bargain price of £9.99 each definitely recommend we will be going again shortly
