"We went in for lunch today and wow what a disappointment. We walked in the bar/lounge area and wanted to get a drink. To start off we only had the choice of with 3 beers on tap, and not good beers either. After that we went through to the restaurant with chains hanging over the doors which nearly knocked our drinks over, its like walking through to a conservatory. As we walked through we saw the kitchen on one side and the bar on the other with also chains hanging over the door ways. We then arrived to the restaurant and it looked like we were walking into an old people’s home. No music, awful decoration and we felt like we were visiting some ancient relatives. We sat down and placed our order to then realise our food was out within 2/3 minutes. Now for me that is far too quick, it seemed rushed and they just plated up pre cooked food and sent it out. The food came out and it looked sloppy, the mash was more like smash. The Yorkshire puddings where bought in which is a disgrace. Yorkshire puddings are supposed to be home made all the time. The vegetables tasted like they were out of a tin; bland and watery. The meat fell apart but was awfully dry. We all coated out meat in gravy but couldn’t save it! The roast potatoes weren’t roasted properly they tasted boiled and then shoved in the oven for 10 minutes, they were awful and you cannot call them proper roasted potatoes. We never complain because we find it rude and it gives off a bad atmosphere for other customers that surprisingly maybe enjoying it. We then had dessert which actually was half decent but we were given a grape cut in half and the tiniest cut of orange, it was like they were rationing it for ww2 still, which would suit the average age of the customers."

Great food, beautiful homemade pies and desserts. The pastry is fantastic. Large portions with various fresh vegetables and all at a very reasonable price. Not surprised it was absolutely packed and we had to book a table. We went with friends who were equally impressed.

Been a while since I’ve visited so decided to go with the extended family to celebrate my 41st birthday. Still wonder how they can provide a roast and desert for this price and the beef just melts. Also don’t think you can beat the white chocolate raspberry gateau. Just wish this place was closer to home.

And before anyone moans; I hate leaving a poor review. Done it twice in 65 years. Running a pub serving food is hard at the best of times, but really this one needs work. First the lager smelled so I changed it for beer. No vegetarian option so we both selected fish and chips. Nw how hard could that be? The tartare sauce was lovely though.

We have been here several times, early evening (around 6pm) as they close after 7pm. It is a very unassuming place, the staff are all super friendly and the meals are all home cooked. Pies, steak, gammon, excellent curry, fish and choice of roast every day, all with a choice of mash, roasties or chips and plenty of veg. Dessert and tea/coffee are included and the dessert range is extensive including jelly!

I’ve written a few reviews about this place over the years and after eating here on Saturday thought it deserved another. The price of £8.50 is amazing value for the main, dessert and coffee. Staff are always polite and go out of there way to make you feel welcome and looked after. It was a hard decision to decide on my main but I do love the home made onion rings so I decide on the gammon, with my mate having the fish and homemade chips. I’ve attached pictures as they defo say far more about the amazing quality of the food you get than I can try and capture in words. For desert I picked the homemade cheese cake. Truly amazing.

"Very good. this renovated and updated gastro pub has a beautiful, high-end feeling, without too posh. the personal is pleasant, real and well maintained. good drink selection! music selection didn't seem fit, but not extraordinarily. eating is exceptional, but, based on some personal preferences, there were slightly smaller disappointments with each dish. all were presented beautifully! the scallop starter was perfectly cooked, but there was an unexpected sticky texture on the sea red side. the chilis needed something sweet to balance them, but it was a nice warm pop. the acid from the grapefruit mixed with the petersilie mayonnaise drizzle, but both were delicious. some either flash-frozen or dry germinated greens gave beautiful texture, and the dish as a whole was beautiful. the duck ice starter was rich without being hard. slowly boiled (inspiring sous vide,) the egg was perfect. it was on a bed of slowly baked cheekwange, which is longing! some picking mushrooms have also added beautiful acid contrast. the brioche disc on which everything sat was not my favorite, but again can be personal preference. it seemed too thick, dense and sweet for the court. either would have been a nice sourded or an airy crawling cut my choice. again a very tasty dish. the healbutt main was absolutely wonderful! in butter lubricated, with fennel, white asparagus, a butter sauce with raw and squid-ink pasta. all with dill fronds. only small critique was the toughness of the tips of the braided fennel without knife, which is suitable for cutting through. a unique and very pleasant experience! it was great."
