"This is a pub with a bit of an identity crisis. The restaurants area is still sharing space with the pub and you’re not quite sure where you are. The staff were really friendly. However I’m a bit disappointed that when booking 3 days prior, we weren’t offered the Christmas menu, but instead found out it was preorder only when we arrived on Boxing Day. To be honest, we wouldn’t have booked if we had known that. Sadly the food was rather a let down. The beef croquettes were quite honestly the strangest and least appetising thing I’ve ever seen on a plate. They seemed to be just puréed beef, deep fried. A croquette should be mainly potato. These had none. They were really quite awful. Mains. Chunky chips seems like an easy thing to muster up? Nope. My partner and friend received a bowl of about 6 mammoth potatoes each. I don’t think you could even describe them as wedges. They were stupidly large chunks which inevitably where undercooked in the centre. My salmon was actually cooked quite nicely! However the strange imbalance of overly thick cream sauce and raw cherry tomatoes left it pretty much inedible. Finally, the acoustics in the dining room really were the nail in the coffin. A large table with multiple screaming children behind us meant that we literally couldn’t have a conversation with each other, despite being face to face. Such a disappointing experience."

Great selection of beers on tap. Amazing pizza from van outside only on Sundays, you're allowed to have it in the pub.

as mr. snarky said: we could taste the pub I thought of the restaurants near the railway station. When we landed here, I was surprised.

Friendly pub, didn't try the food but the real ale was in good condition. Plenty of diners enjoying the food but drinkers are welcome as well. Nice outdoor seating area.

The Sunday roast is fabulous. I had the veggie option and my partner had roast beef. Both were ample portions and very, very tasty. Staff can’t do enough for you and Lauren the manager is so welcoming and makes everyone feel like a regular. It’s a great example of a traditional pub.

Really hearty tasty roast. Good portions, tasty meat and the veg was really well cooked. The creamed leaks were delicious. Had sticky toffee pudding for dessert and it was superb, amazing flavour, good size and the custard was to die for. Reasonable prices, about £28 per person for three course and a drink. Staff were really helpful and efficient.

The former tavern seems to have retained its pub ancestry but none the worse for that. However, you first have to find your way in which could be made a bit easier. We were a largish group and full marks for bringing out all the food pretty much together. But while my fish was fine, the treble cooked chips were very disappointing and another diner found some of his still hard in the middle. My serving of mushy peas could only be described as mean. Generally, however, everyone enjoyed their meal and the staff were efficient and friendly.

Had a really delicious Sunday roast for lunch at The Chancery today. My husband had beef and I had the veggie option all delicious and the leeks, parsnips and carrots were especially delicious (side note: the Yorkshire pudding was HUGE! . Lovely desserts too: they have classic options like sticky toffee puddings and crumbles with a choice of cream, custard or ice cream. Great wine selection, friendly staff and a stylish cosy atmosphere too. A really nice place for a pub lunch: about £28 per person for a shared starter, two courses and a glass of wine.
