| Pub has new owners and been refurbished since the last posts. We recently visited for lunch in the week. Friendly welcome and service. Beer selection and quality only fair. Lunch menu comprehensive, but when my first choice was unavailable, the spider crabs were recommended - and I spent an uncomfortable afternoon!! Not a drinking pub, particularly when there are so many good pubs nearby, and perhaps more attention to the food before it can be recommended as a restaurant venue. farmerroger - 13 May 2013 12:55 |
| Pretty unfriendly pub (staff wise) allthough the guy with the throat device was pretty decent. But the food...... We got recommended this by the guest house we were staying in, I can only assume he has spent the last 20 years eating prison food. Both of us spent a few hours in the bathroom after eating here, the steak with stilton sauce was terrible and should never be served to anyone again. Would not eat here ever ever again or for that matter drink there again. akscott - 10 Apr 2007 09:18 |
| An old early 18th century Inn on the edge of town, a bit of a walk from the town centre but 5 minutes in the car. The first things to catch the eye are the old urinals on the outside wall of the pub near the entrance � they now have a new use as flower pots. The pub was rather quiet and sedate on my visit. The interior is a good balance between dining and drinking areas. 2 Real Ales on pump � Websters & Old Speckled Hen. The main bar area is partly flag stoned, long and narrow with a couple of TV�s, fruit machines, dart board and small dais at one end that is occasionally used for live jazz music. There is a real fire near bar where the regulars seem to congregate. Various jugs and pitchers hanging from ceiling and line the shelves. There are some interesting old pictures and the ubiquitous Guinness mirror. A small room leads off to the rear of pub. From the main bar there is an oak beamed restaurant and this in turn leads to a large modern conservatory, also used for dining. There are some benches out front for warmer days and 11 en-suite bedrooms are available if you cannot stagger home. Homely and welcoming but there just isn�t any one particular thing that stands out as making it exceptional and it is probably better to visit on a busier evening. RogerB - 12 Dec 2006 12:33 |
