"Positives: The pub looks the part inside and out, and it 's in a picturesque setting. I went for lunch on a Saturday without booking and there was no problem getting a table. The prices are lower than at similar places. Negatives: The staff seemed inexperienced and did more blagging than was necessary. My friend ordered a lime soda and ended up with a glass of soda water with a slice of lime in it. In the same vein, the pizza we ordered arrived without one of its main toppings 'nduja), and when we questioned it the staff initially claimed that it was us who were mistaken. Ultimately and after some minutes in the kitchen they had to acknowledge that they actually hadn 't put any on, because they 'd run out. The chef put some more salami on in recompense but overall it was a bit of a strange experience. The garden is supposed to be a feature of this place but you 're not allowed to eat in it even when it 's very quiet). Summary: A visually charming locals-type pub let down by some cut corners"

A gorgeous pub in a small village. Friendly staff and the most beautiful beer garden. Wish I lived closer but well worth a visit if you're in the area.
Constantinos
Nice, cosy pub in a small village, polite stuff, with good selection of ales and ordinary pub food done right. They also do a selection of pizzas. Had a good time : View menu

large village pub with fab selection of real ales of the timothy taylor landlord was excellent! chicken strip free in this wonderfully relaxed environment in the shadow of the church. worth visiting.
adrian
The owners of this restaurant frequently make empty threats toward customers, but they do not follow through when confronted. These individuals are small-minded and not worth taking seriously. It might be amusing to visit and see them try to act tough, but overall not a recommended experience.
