"A first time visit spoilt to some extent by a litany of failings. At opening, only one beer on the hand pump, and this soon ran out without being replaced. The menu was incomplete at start of service, and to top it all, my colleague and I were removed from our seats as apparently the table was reserved for a group, although this was not mentioned during the first hour of our visit and was not indicated by any reserved notice on the table. We were given a free drink each at the bar in recompense, only, to our amazement, to see the group who had been given our table leave the pub ten minutes after we had been ousted without having eaten a thing. Whilst the manager was inept, our Sri Lankan barmaid was superb, and had it not been for her we would have left without our free tipple. In essence, a lovely pub spoilt by an inadequate management."
