Nice and clean, beers and food not always available . Allowed vaping spoils the taste and enjoyment of the beer. Dogs sit on seats , not hygienic.|Terrible music ???? |Food is good but not always available.|Outside areas are roomy with enough seating.
I was refused a glass of lemonade for having no ID. The bar staff then followed me outside and proceeded to kick us out for not having ID as it was 7pm. Even though there was a LITERAL 12 year old within the premises. I am 20 years of age and definitely don’t look 12.
PUT THE HEATING ON!! Cold winters day 4pm in the afternoon and folk sitting in their coats. 1 table directly in front of the log fire occupied by 2 people and no one else gets a look in. Apparently heating doesn’t go on until 8pm! It’s bitter cold outside ????????????!!
After the refurbishment
This is one of my favourite pubs.
The garden is gorgeous
Shade (from the sun) , if you need it. Or a great spot to catch some rays & have a great selection of beers/ales/ciders & wines etc
Very nice place food is amazing loved it.
A great variety of beers on cask and draught, very friendly service from the lady who served us. Nice beer garden with live music playing when we visited also. Will be returning again soon!
Our visit as a family (grandparents, mother and baby) started really well. The beer garden was lovely and a nice traditional selection of foods available and good beer was available. The lady that took our order was friendly and informative. The ploughman’s platter and homemade scotch egg we ordered was great quality and served by a lovely young lady who made the scotch eggs herself. However, our experience was pretty much ruined when the lady that took our order came out into the beer garden after our plates and empty glasses had been cleared and spotted the small package of sandwiches we had brought for my 11 month old baby who is only starting to try small very soft solids in small mouthfuls. Myself and my mother were changing the baby when she approached my father in his 70s and told him sternly he couldn’t sit there as “the beer garden was only for customers”. My father had personally paid this very same lady for our meal and drinks. My father replied “I am a customer I’ve just spent 28 pounds” to which the lady did not apologise and walked off after making him feel embarrassed in front of a full garden of customers for no reason other than holding some snacks for his grandson. My dad was left quite distressed as he had finished a paid meal and drink a the small package of sandwiches in his hand was for my baby. On our way out, the same lady approached him again and said abruptly “next time please just let me know if you are bringing your own food”. I explained that the small package of sandwiches was specially prepared for my weaning baby and yet we still received no apology other than “next time let me know so I can get you a plate and make it special for you”. All it required was a simple apology, my baby does not require a plate and only eats small mouthfuls by hand. The pub advertises on its outdoor marketing collateral that it offers a “warm welcome” and is “family friendly”. In my opinion family friendly is not calling out an elderly man who has paid for food and drinks for his family just because he happens to have some sandwiches for his baby grandson in his hands in the beer garden. An apology would have gone a long way as our experience up until this incident was excellent. Family friendly? I don’t think so.
This little gem is my secret heaven. Absolutely love the scotch eggs. They are freshly cooked and the size of a cricket ball. Divine. The Golden Wanderer, Shropshire pale and The Oracle are all fantastic pints. I’ve never had a bad pint here. So friendly and welcoming. Sam was so friendly and helped everyone feel safe during the covid times. I saw all staff cleaning and helping the flow of customers be safe, log in with the track n trace, show us how to keep to the one way system and still feel relaxed and happy. Outdoor seating is fab and cute little garden. I simply can’t stay away. Thanks to all staff for your efforts during such a difficult time. Sam, Joanne and Dougie. See you soon!! I’m missing the beer already. ????
