  “We regularly pop in here for a cuppa and had a meal once it was delicious. Staff are always very friendly and so helpful. The atmosphere is very relaxed and you feel comfortable (even in me slippers) The outdoor seating area is a big hit ( weather permitting) There's even a dig menu so you can take your little best friends. Will keep popping in”

  “Absolutely shocking place to eat. The place was empty. The food was crap and the women that served us got angry when we complained. Avoid this place like the plague. There's much better places to eat than this in Washington.”

  “our servers elise and charlotte provided excellent and swift service for our food and drinks. The food we received was also excellent, I ordered the dirty burger which came with skin on fries, my partner ordered the fish and chips. Both were excellent. Much enjoyed, will visit again.”

  “Selection of starters delicious. The batter on The southerfried chicken was perfect. Tried the veggie beetroot falafel wrap too.. was great. Not my thing but very well but together and tasty... fries were really nice. Good pint too! Busy bank holiday and service was good, bit slow but to be expected on BH”

  “Our food here was fresh and tasty. Not quite presented as per the menus - with warm Mediterranean salad with roasted peppers etc, but it was nice. Our waitress was very lovely, so helpful and friendly - lovely smile all through our service. Nicely laid out tables. Quite a good menu. Busy place, which was good to see. Our mini dessert with a coffee of choic was really good. An enjoyable visit. Yeah would go again.”

  “Really disappointed with the food today, me and my husband ordered Halloumi no cheese starter which was clearly just straight out the freezer and shoved in the fryer, my main was the highland venison casserole, I can’t believe how poor this was, the portion of venison was x5 50p size pieces of venison! I’ve had more meat out a £2 microwave meal. My husbands steak was small for a 6oz, it was over cooked and the fries were like cardboard. I was so disappointed as this used to be a lovely restaurant, the staff are always friendly and the restaurant itself is lovely and clean. But the food today was shocking.”

  “I dined here for the first time today and I've got to say, I wasn't impressed. £15.95 for pie and mash is a bit much but I was willing to. I won't again though. I think that I can cook better than their kitchen. I'm pretty sure my pint tasted a little of soap too... As the pub itself goes, it's alright. There were plenty of patrons and a warm enough atmosphere. It's in a beautiful spot / location. River view couldn't be better.”

  “We stayed locally in an Airbnb to watch the Women's Rugby World Cup in Sunderland. We booked a table which was really easy. We received a warm welcome and was shown to our table. Good selection of meals - we ordered food from the set menu including steak, schnitzel and cottage pie. Every dish was cooked to perfection and very tasty. Good variety of drinks. The service was fantastic - I left my sunglasses behind and the staff went above and beyond so I could collect them during closed hours before I.left the area. Great local treasure! Thank you!”
