"First of all the good points. This is a very pretty pub in a great location. The beer was well kept and the wine we ordered was very reasonably priced and delicious. The food was again reasonably priced and the service was good. We had 'dropped in ' at this pub being recommended by my customer that we had just made a delivery to. We got there at the same time as a party of 7 people who were ordering drinks and they then went onto order meals. We ordered our beers which we were enjoying drinking when my husband went up to the bar to order our meals. We were surprised to hear we couldn 't order before 7 pm. It was 5.45 pm at this time. We paid for our beers and said we would try somewhere else. The barmaid/ waitress came up to us as we almost finished our beers and said she had a cancellation so we could order a meal now. We both ordered the broth and pie for main. We ordered a bottle of wine to go with the pie which was duly opened and put on our table. After about 10 minutes, we were then told that there were no pies available so we would have to re-order. We were both disappointed but I ordered the scampi and chips which were very nice and my husband ordered the gourmet burger which he enjoyed. We were just surprised to be turned away at the beginning of our evening. The barmaid/waitress did seem under pressure and I think she was waiting for more staff to come on duty."

"We were travelling and decided to have an early lunch having seen the pub previously when passing. We arrived just after they had opened and I didn't see any other customers. Bright and cheerful welcome, no problem with our dog coming in which was nice. Given it looked pleasant with tables in nice looking bay windows, we were a bit surprised to be given a table next to the disabled toilet, by the walkway and bar, but I think it was so they did not have to walk far. Almost immediately I thought I could smell urine, and eventually realised the toilet door was not shut properly. That made all the difference, though I did not go in to find out why it smelled so strongly. No idea why the staff though could not smell it. The drinks came quickly and likewise the food, but we were the only people there. We had a Caesar salad and jerk chicken wrap that came with fries and a little salad. Very average Caesar salad, and the wrap was tasteless, fairly sure some jerk sauce just stirred into mayo, though the fries were nice. Even though I left 3/4 of the wrap, the girl who collected our plates did not ask if there was a problem and no one had asked if the food was okay. By the time we left, at best there were only half a dozen tables occupied. Frankly, it seemed as if they were not interested, perhaps because it is on a main route and picks up passing traffic. Nice looking pub but we won't stop there again."
