Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the food, naming a ploughman's called fantastic at lunch, deep fried dough balls that seem strange at first but turn incredible after the first bite, and a child's burger at a Sunday roast with generous portions. Close behind is the welcoming staff, described as friendly and funny, along with a landlord couple who run the pub well. Weekly events draw regulars, including poker night, quiz night and curry Thursday, while football days bring a loud crowd that one reviewer calls a fab atmosphere. That same reviewer warns that the tables are big and diners should be prepared to share. The garden comes up repeatedly, and a great beer choice is mentioned too. One family describes a private function room they were free to decorate for an 18th birthday party with more than 30 guests. Dog owners get a small touch of their own, with treats kept behind the bar and a water barrel in the garden.

“We had the pleasure of visiting here with our four-year-old son for a Sunday roast, and he thoroughly enjoyed his burger. The food was truly excellent, offering both generous portions and high-quality ingredients. We are certainly looking forward to returning.”

“Went for drinks on a weekend in May. It was a chilly day so everyone was shut inside. It was football day and it was loud. For those who love the footy, it was great, with a fab atmosphere. Tables are big so be prepared to share. Service with a smile too.”
