This is my local and it never fails me! After a bad experience at another pub, the staff just made our day a lot better. The food is always enjoyable and we are guaranteed a good experience at this pub.

I tend to visit here more in the day time periods - but have once or twice ventured into the evening. I have mixed feelings over the place. Anyway here we go -- Beer prices slightly expensive but one fantastic plus is that you can pay by card so that alone is the best reason to drink here. so thats... More

Haven't eaten here for a while and i believe it has been updated since i was last there. I was always happy with my meals but they are run of the mill pub grub.

We're sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your steak. I think you missed the salads on the menu - we have a chicken salad and a steak & mushroom salad on our main menu, along with a couple more on the specials board. Customers are welcome to either eat or drink on both sides of the pub, there is no... More

Hi 1jeff. Well, we really have had a mixed bag of reviews from you! Some ok, some not so good (but you keep coming back so can't be all bad!). Next time you're in the pub will you ask for me so you can give me more feedback - give us a chance to respond/rectify issues? Thanks, Kath. More
