Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the food, served in generous, filling portions and described as tasty and piping hot. The steak with cheese sauce, done perfectly, draws particular praise, and others name the Stilton chicken with fries and the black and blue burger as delicious. Sunday roasts get a mention too, and one family celebrated a daughter's birthday meal here. Service comes up repeatedly as friendly and helpful, including staff who stayed attentive while the pub was busy. A homely feel, a good selection of drinks and draught beer in proper tankers round out the praise. The reservations are small. One reviewer finds the food slightly overpriced with too few vegetarian options, and another calls the ambiance dated and dreary while noting the pub is due to move to the Rose & Castle up the road. One suggests calling in advance because the place fills up quickly. Reviewers also mention a gluten free brownie for dessert and a 2 for 1 offer before 8 pm.

“What a find... fantastic home cooked quality food, great beer served in proper tankers, not a big place but just perfect in every way. Order your food and within 10 min you'll be eating like a king & queen. Decent draft on tap. Felt so comfortable from walking in the door. Highly recommend you try if you haven't been before like us. Id travel to eat here again I enjoyed the food and drink that much. Very happy customer 😀”

“Was just passing by when I was feeling a bit peckish so decided to stop here. Had the Stilton Chicken with fries and it was absolutely delicious!! Service was great with staff there when I needed them despite them being busy and me arriving unannounced! Great pub!”
