Another Enterprise pub that was seemingly doing well but has now closed and is available at a rent of �32K pa.

We ate here for the first time tonight. By 8pm they had run out of "Specials" (seemingly just a 15oz T-bone) which was surprising as there are only about two dozen covers. There were other steaks on the menu but I chose a decent enough 1/2lb lamb burger with chunky chips and onion rings (�9.95) and my partner had a fairly bland butternut squash risotto (�8.95). For pudding, we both had the Panna cotta (way too much gelatin) with chocolate truffle (more like a chunk of chocolate) at �4.75 each. The bill totalled �45 and that included good pints of Patriot Morris (�3.20) and Old Hooky (�3.50) and 2 glasses of wine. The menu is not really much more than decent pub grub we felt but the pub was heaving and there was a good atmosphere. Plenty of people sitting in the nice rear beer garden too. 7/10 overall.

Popped in yesterday for a quick Bank Holiday pint. The Patriot offering this time was "Kiwi".

Visited this evening at about 6pm. A pleasant crowd of locals at the bar but there is plenty of room elsewhere in this roomy pub, we chose some leather seats near a few tables which might be taken to be the dining area (although there are other less formal tables in the "bar" area). Enjoyed superb Old Hooky and Patriot "Morris", Wye Valley HPA also available. Did not eat but the menu included �3.25 "grazing and sharing" starters (e.g. herb sausage sauteed in honey & mustard or tiger prawn skewers with lemongrass) and a good grill choice along with classic mains (inc. sage marinated pork tenderloin with fricassee of wild mushrooms, jersey royals and asparagus @ �10.75). Nice exposed stonework and brickwork gave the place a homely feel. Our current favourite in the area, we will definitely be returning.

Also have big TV and Sky Sports News, but not sure about normal Sky Sports channels.

Had Hobgoblin on tap the other day, very nice.

Can be a bit 'local' on Friday nights. Got a few stares when I went in (maybe I'm just odd!).

Nice old pub in a lovely village.

Has oak beams and low ceilings inside and is very cosy, particularly in the winter.

Has some good real ales, a dart board and pool table.

The gentleman that runs it is very friendly, as are the rest of the staff.

Not a bad clientelle either.
