please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
This pub's website states that it opens at 11:30 Monday-Saturday. But, we arrived shortly before midday last Saturday to find it still locked up. The landlord did soon come to the door to let us in. I suspect the opening times have changed, without the website being updated, as locals soon started arriving for a drink shortly after midday. Drinkers congregated around the bar, whilst a couple of groups arrived for food. Adnams Bitter can be found here. They also had a guest ale - Rare Gold from Elmstree. Not the friendliest of places. But, the waitress seemed ok.

PLEASE IGNORE COMMENT ABOUT BEING BOARDED UP - a technical glitch caused this comment to appear on the WRONG PUB!
I have tried to get the post removed via Support but with no luck.

A proper local pub! Old fashioned slightly grumpy and entertaining landlord. Beer was in excellent condition. Honest homemade food.

The pub is in an ideal location situated in a quiet hamlet with good access but the meal we had was far from ideal. Firstly we were greeted by a very rude barman who made a mistake in my drinks order and then tried to tell me that it was my fault for not speaking clearly! Next we were shown to a filthy table where we waited for a long time for our order to be taken (even though the place was empty except for 2 locals that the barman was talking to). When the food arrived (1/2 roast chicken) it was greasy and well over cooked and my husband suspected it was deep fried. My husband also found an amimal hair in his prawn salad.
