Customer Review Summary
Diners consistently single out the food as exceptional, with the southern chicken wraps and Christmas lunch earning repeated praise for taste and value. The atmosphere is frequently described as lively and friendly, with a separate restaurant area, three TVs for sport, and a dartboard adding to the appeal. Several highlight the welcoming staff and the pub’s ability to accommodate groups, including private room bookings for events. A recurring complaint centers on slow service and overpriced meals, with one reviewer describing lasagne served with brown lettuce and a slug. Another notes disruptive behavior from children and parents, though this is framed as an isolated incident. The wood burner and real ales also draw positive mentions. One group reports a chef introducing himself and sharing his background.

“Came for Mother’s Day. Food was exceptional. Staff were friendly and attentive, there was a wait but this is expected on a busy day. A lady up the corner was very rude to the young lady serving and dimmed the atmosphere. We spoke to the manager about our feelings about this. But this did not spoil it for us. The pub can’t help how the customers act. But her attitude towards staff was disgusting. I would recommend every time, we came for Christmas, we came back for Mother’s Day and will definitely be returning and recommending the place to friends and family. Value for money. Lovely tasty food and friendly welcoming staff.”

How this listing is sourced
- Where the data comes from
- Name, address, hours, contact details, amenities, ratings and review counts come from the business's publicly available profile data — not from the owner and not from paid submissions.
- How it stays current
- Every listing is re-checked on a recurring crawl, and anything reported as wrong is corrected at the source rather than patched on the page.
- How it is ranked
- Placement is never sold. Every business on the page is ordered and compared using the same public signals, so an owner cannot pay to move up.
