Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the roast dinners, with the Sunday roast singled out, and the homemade steak and ale pie served with a pint of Bass and followed by apple crumble. Friendly staff and a good beer and ale selection come up repeatedly, along with reasonable prices. One diner found the four cheese pie's pastry raw, and one bingo night left a visitor feeling unwelcome.

“Friendly staff. Food not so good. Four cheese pie, pastry was raw, looked like lasagne sheets and topped with a slice of garlic bread. Wouldn't recommend.this dish.”
- David Lyons
“Great value for the money. Good service friendly staff. Would recommend.”
- Franck Sauvage
“Very nice roast dinner (and probably the last one of the day). Generous in plates, smiles and service. We will come again for sure.”
- Chris Morgan
“In the category of classic cozy pubs serving great pub food, fantastic drinks, and with lovely friendly service, this is perfect. We stopped by for a drink in the afternoon and after a warm welcome from the landlord who showed us the food menu, we went back for dinner. A few friendly locals, lovely atmosphere and amazing homemade steak & ale pie to go with a pint of Bass, and apple crumble for dessert. And great value.”
- Julie Prince
“I didn't eat here, I just turned up for a bingo night, which was a total shambles, most of the tables are reserved, it's extremely rowdy and very clicky, myself and my friends felt like outsiders and we were dictated where to sit by a bolshie woman, possibly the landlady? We won't be returning to this establishment, we were all out of our comfort zones and didn't feel welcome.”
