Recently re-opened, refurbished and under new management, this now describes itself as a �Country pub and Restaurant� which gives you a clue as to what it�s priorities are. It consists of a L-shaped bar area along with a restaurant section down a couple of steps to the left. It was very quiet on a recent Tuesday evening visit with no other punters in the bar the whole time I was there, although there were a few eating in the restaurant. Although I didn�t visit prior to the refurbishment, it�s obviously that it has had something of a makeover and now has a very contemporary appearance with Farrow & Ball pale green paintwork and a mixture of flagstones and strip wood flooring. Seating in the bar area is very limited, although it�s not a bad size most of the space seemed to be just that � space. The seating that was there consisted of a few leather armchairs clustered around low tables and one circular table to seat five or six. I didn�t even notice any bar stools. An old fireplace was off to one side that housed a wood burning stove, although it looked as though it may have been more decorative than functional. As is popular these days, a selection of artwork for sale was dotted around the walls. The restaurant area was off to one side, and appeared to be split in to two with a partition wall between them. This too looked very contemporary, and the end wall in one half was made up of log ends, perhaps supposed to look like a stack of logs ready for the fire. The menu itself was fairly concise with four or five pub classics such as Fish & Chips, Ham & Chips, etc, a similar number of Thai dishes along with a few salads and such like. Prices for the main courses started at around �9 and went upwards � my shredded duck breast with stir-fry noodles and a spicy sauce was a pleasant and tasty dish, and there was a decent amount of it. Whether it was worth �12 though, I�m slightly unsure. Beer choice was disappointing with just Greene King IPA being available, although I did see pumps for Old Speckled Hen and Abbot Ale which appeared to have run out. The solitary cider was Aspall�s Suffolk. Overall this is a decent enough place for what it is, but it�s difficult to score it highly as a pub either in terms of ambience or beer choice.

Really nice village pub with a good car park and a decent garden. Greene King beers and very friendly and helpful staff. seagullfan - 3 May 2010 19:50 |
This is a great pub - gorgeous decor and great day or night. Nice bar area with comfy leather seats and attarctive restaurant. Food is very good - my stepdad is a fussy chef and he was very impressed! Slightly pricey, but worth it. Pretty good choice of drinks available, various lagers, wines and spirits, but not sure about ales? Well worth a visit in my opinion. sara_lou_82 - 16 Oct 2008 16:17 |
