    I almost don’t want to give this a good review because it is becoming increasingly difficult to get a table.. The food is so good- fresh quality produce and although smallish menu every dish is delicious, also great Margheritas and affordable good wine. Also the playlist is brilliant so basically everything you want in a pub - quality food, warm atmosphere and great cocktails.

    We had a dinner booked for 7.30pm they were running late with service but I have to say we hardly noticed the pub had an amazing atmosphere the staff are very attentive and apologetic, they took a drinks round off the bill for the long wait. The food was amazing I had the monk fish tail and my husband had the pork loin absolutely delicious. You must try the beef fat popcorn omg it’s very tasty they should sell bags of this loved it. We will definitely e back can’t wait to sample the Sunday dinner.
