A tad gastro for my taste, but it's been done well and not done out in identikit Farrow & Ball greenygrey like so many up and down the country. The beer is good, the staff are friendly and the food very nice indeed, it has its own smokery so was always going to be a winner with me. Not sure it has the kind of atmosphere that would make me drop in for a pint of an evening, I was there for lunch and as such it hit the spot.

Very much an unmarket gastro pub, and a popular one at that! There is space for drinkers, but not much more than a few stools at the bar when we were there on a very busy Friday night.

Available beers included Crouch Vale Brewer's Gold, Woodforde's Wherry and Humpty Dumpty Little Sharpie. I tried the Crouch Vale and Humpty Dumpty and both were in good condition.

The staff were pleasant enough, but seemed run ragged serving the food. Not really a place for a quiet drink and a chat. It could be different on a midweek night, but I only made the one visit.

Modern gastro-style pub that appears to mostly accommodate diners but also welcome drinkers in the bar and has overnight accommodation. Popped in for meal on a Saturday night and it was virtually fully booked. However the staff were friendly and accommodating and managed to fit us in without a fuss. There were three real ales on offer: Brewers Gold, Adnams Best and Wherry. The four pints that we had were all very well kept. The food was also excellent - not cheap but certainly value for money. Good beer, great food and wonderful service. Definitely recommended!

I concur. Excellent gastro pub with very good selection of local ales with Crouch Vale Brewers Gold being the house beer.
Lovely place for a quiet Sunday evening pint.

Large stylish gastro-pub. Very good food, great beer and wine, excellent atmosphere. Gets very busy - tables on a first come first served basis.
