This has the potential to be superb, however the service is diabolical. You are lucky to get served for a drink before you die of dehydration, don't even chance waiting for food. This used to be THE best pub in the area, god knows what has gone wrong? Simple solution yet for the last 3 years nothing has changed.

Having been here before and had a great time, went over the weekend with friends and family. Although numbering 11, and with a mix up over the booking, they managed to "squeeze us in" - to the completely empty restaurant area - however chef sent a message to say that as we had not booked we were not allowed starters! Our order then arrived without a Steak pie but with an extra chicken, We sent the chicken back but chef again returned it, saying that we had definately ordered the chicken not the steak pie. The waiter also started to get a little offish at this stage. To be honest most of our party saw the funny side of this complete farse and we carried on regardless.
Shame though as always thought of this pub as a gem of a find, but realistically it is only average with this type of service.

Great Pub for a beer, cosy in winter with great bar staff and lovely icy cold pints of HB on tap. Ask the barman to make his dog Rooney to do tricks - my kids love it. Food OK, generic menu, nothing fancy but well priced so what do you expect.
