Fish and chips with crisp beer batter and fresh fish is the draw reviewers name most, alongside a roast dinner and a kids' play area. Dogs are welcome. The main complaint is toilets that need a clean. One reviewer waited for dessert and the bill after food arrived quickly, and another found the inside rather dark. Staff are called friendly and polite.

“Food freshly cooked although a little salty. Good allergen information. Service good although we weren’t too sure if it was table service. Seating areas rather dark inside. Toilets could be cleaner. Bar staff friendly.”
- Angela Ferrassi
“Fish and chips ten out of ten. Crisp beer batter and fish fresh in every day. Couldn't be better and you can take your dog. Once you've ordered food comes quickly but then they forget about you and leave you waiting to order dessert and waiting to pay. I've been twice and it's been the same both visits. Staff need reminding to check tables now frequently. Staff are friendly and helpful though.”
- Dominic Hoppe
“Very lovely homely feel, food was unreal and couldn’t complain. Really quick and positive service. Only complaint is the toilets could do with a clean and makeover.”
