  “Fantastic pork roast, really enjoyed it. They were very busy but wait wasn't ridiculous and though my plate was missing items they quickly remedied. Fussy daughter said the chips were the best she'd ever had. Staff lovely too. Marked down slightly due to overly crispy in places yorkshire pudding, and slightly over roast potatoes. Though this is personal preference and not a slur on the chef. Would 100% recommend.”

  “Recently came here with my family and had a great time. We also brought the dog and they were very accommodating for us and even gave him a water bowl while we were enjoying our meal. The food was fantastic and so was the service.”

  “I called into this 196 year old pub a few days ago whilst staying on my boat in the Brayford Pool. I’ve been in this pub back in the 1970’s when it earned the nickname of the blood tub because of the frequent drunken brawls that broke out. It is now a much more reputable establishment which offers a really nice eating and drinking experience within its historic charm. The service was excellent and as a solo traveller I felt comfortable in there. I had the steak and ale pie which was beautifully presented and equally tasty. The pint of Landlords bitter went down a treat. There is plenty of outdoor seating if you want to sit by the water and watch the world go by. Thanks guy for your hospitality.”

  “We dropped in for a drink and meal on a summer afternoon. To our pleasant surprise, the food was incredible and the dining nice and spacious. A bit of a line up to order but that's a sign of the popularity of this establishment. The seabass from the salad menu was one of the most fresh and enjoyable pub feeds I've had in England!”

  “Absolutely loved the food, was fresh and the dirty chips which had chicken on was beautiful. The burger was great pit something burger. Was super fresh. Drinks was amazing and great friendly staff. Please pass our thanks on too the chef. He deserves a pay rise lol.Or cook more local to us save us the 70mile round trip to try you. But we'll worth it and a bit of shopping as well. Thank you.”

  “Real disappointment. Wouldn't recommend. Slow service. Mediocre food, Steak Pie with Gristle beef. The Gravy was a weak watery concoction when advertised as a Bone Marrow Gravy, NO WAY! Bar Staff quite indifferent. Gents toilets out of order! Not on my bucket list to revisit.”

  “Treated my friend to Sunday lunch, for her birthday, today, 22nd March. Excellent. I had booked earlier in the week, Julia took booking. On arrival, no record but they accommodated us. I had the pork with crackling and Myra had roast beef. Both were delicious and good portions. We both had a pudding, my crumble was huge. Drinks reasonably priced. Unfortunately, started both courses before I remembered the photos but they were beautifully presented. Would definitely recommend and well behaved dogs allowed. We will be back.”

  “Good pub with a nice friendly atmosphere and really nice staff. Great outside seating area with lovely views over the river. We only had drinks so I can't comment on food but from what I saw of other customers tables it looked fine.”
