“Another great meal at the Bird. I had the chicken schnitzel with mash from the specials menu. Would highly recommend! My wife had a vegetarian option and the kids opted for fish fingers and chicken nuggets. The only thing preventing clean plates all round was the portion sizes! Although I managed to fit in a homemade brownie for dessert. Excellent, fresh food with a great atmosphere.”

“Lovely pub, with a nice atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. I am Gluten free and they had lots of options. All of our food was tasty and well presented. I would recommend the fillet steak. Ample parking is also a bonus.”

“Whilst I cannot fault the food quality, please be warned if you order from the £10.95 Winter Warmers menu you will be served with a child sized portion although no mention of this is on the menu. I left still feeling hungry 😢 Even now I can't see how £10.95 can be justified for such a small amount of food. …”
