  “Thought it was going to be nice as the houses around it are beautiful, but no, absolute dive, no beer garden to speak of, said dog friendly, but no water available ( luckily I had my own) just felt like if you weren't a regular, you weren't welcome. Landlord came out, didnt smile, or greet us. Didn't even finish our drinks. Wouldn't go back.”

  “Nice pub in a lovely village location. It was early doors and the bar was very busy, the back room much less so. The beer (ale) was very good quality. Would go back.”

  “Absolutely appalled by the loud middle/latter aged men who sat at bar using the most disgusting language, especially an Irish man. They were quite obviously locals. Staff never told them to quieten down either. Even my husband (ex miner) couldn’t get out quick enough. Zero consideration for other pub dwellers. Offensive, crude, loud, bombastic & downright unpleasant! Never in my adult years have I experienced such disrespect & blatant disregard for others including the children present. We visited in the hope this would be our local yet felt we were in the middle of the roughest pub in the equally roughest part of the Potteries. At one point the friendly barmaid asked if the Sauvignon was to my liking and the loud mouthed Irish bloke interrupted her, she said I’m talking to a customer whereas he replied ‘tell them to ‘four letter word’ off’! This was banter but what a way to create a new customer base as we later found out he was the new owner. Simply cannot believe how low respect, dignity & manners have fallen in the UK! Our money will continue to be spent in the likes of Shoulder of Mutton in Fulford where there is zero tolerance for this shameful behaviour, The Black Lion in Cheddleton, Butchers Arms in Forsbrook Royal Exchange in Stone etc. Having seen an ex Stoke footballer, who runs a delightful pub in Cheddleton leave a few days ago we were hoping it would be of a similar calibre. How wrong we were. Once visited and couldn’t get out quick enough. On a positive the Sauvignon was delicious but pint of Bass putrid!”

  “Pub no longer does food, just visiting food vans in then evening. Service was OK and they still do a good pint. Can't really comment on the atmosphere as we were the only patrons at the rime which maybe says it all.”

  “Fantastic food and lovely staff. Service was quick and the food came out quick too so we werent waiting ages. Food portions were great and the price was worth it. Not too expensive either. Definitely get what you pay for. I had the hunters chicken which came out great. No complaints and they are happy to make any changes to your meal if asked. Definitely worth a visit.”

  “Amazing food! Great atmosphere in the bar! A real local find! It was a little tricky to book in but once we were there the welcome from the staff, the ambience of the pub and the fantastic food made it all worthwhile. My Dad had the steak and ale pie (which he has tried in many pubs over the years) and he gave this one a 10 out of 10 (high praise indeed), my Mom had the mushroom starter (as a main) which she thoroughly enjoyed and my Partner and I had the steaks, cooked with sauces (Steak Dianne & Drunken Bullock), the steaks came with chips (hand cut - delicious), fresh minted peas, mushrooms & onion rings. The steak meals were outstanding! We shall definitely come back again! Dog friendly in the bar area and they also have a (non-dog) restaurant area. There's good parking and are set in a great location (right next to the Wedgwood Estate).”

  “What a nice and relaxing place . The food i.e. steak was the best I've had for a long time , enjoyed it that much that I'll have to go back for another.. Well I said I'd go back and thus I have for Sunday Dinner and what a delicious beef dinner it was . The staff are soo helpful and do not rush you . All I can say is its even better & taster than before. If you do want a Sunday Dinner then please book to avoid disappointment .”

  “Food is excellent and served in portions that leave very little plate visible. The staff are pleasant and attentive. The choice of beers is very good, e.g. Doombar, Sea Fury, Bass. The decor is a little worn and not what it once was when this was just a pub.”
