"We went here after it being recommended by a friend and unfortunately have to say it was disappointing. Unfortunately the service was not good at all. Initially drinks spilled slightly on table. Waitress apologised but didn't wipe up. 40min wait between finishing starters and main course arriving. Had request a second drink from the bar as had waited 10 min for it between courses so presume the waitress had forgotten. When main course arrived again waitress struggling to carry 2 plates at a time tipped it towards me. I had to grab the gravy boat to avoid it spilling all over me. In doing so burned my hand. Again waitress apologised and left. Leaving us to clean up the mess and me to go to rinse my hand under the tap. Waitress was very young girl and whilst understand these things happen on occasions the spillages were not isolated to just our table. This needs addressing and training given along with accident reporting as I could have received a very nasty burn (I'm fine but it was sore). Lovely pub and nice atmosphere, but the food average at best so won't be returning."

We had booked a table elsewhere but their power went off. They fitted us (9) in for food and didn't have to wait long to be served. Steak ale pie with real homemade chips was delicious View menu

We had Sunday lunch. Choices of beef. Gammon. Pork and turkey. Couldn’t eat the mashed potatoes. Beef lacked taste. The roast potatoes were very tasty. You did get a pig in blanket. Sticky toffee pudding for dessert.

Been here a couple of times now as its a bit out off the way for me so it's family get together. Never an issue, service and staff attitude is very good. Food good and probably better in a smaller group, priced good too. Large carpark is another plus. If you are after pub grub give it a go.

Wanted ketchup with meal went to find waitress who I could see washing up hung around for 5 minutes she didn’t come out so just went without.

Won’t return
