Outstanding food and excellent customer service. Our experience at the fox was fantastic- all the food was delicious and our waitress was so lovely. We had a guest with a gluten allergy and he was treated so well by staff. Our waitress made sure to spend a bit of extra time with him to point out the items on the menu that were suitable, reassuring us that the allergy was no issue to them to cater for.

We have just had our first visit to The Lytton Arms and we could not speak anymore highly of the experience. We had the roast and it was absolutely delicious. We were way too full for pudding but after seeing the menu we couldn’t resist, we’re so glad we did as the cheesecake and mousse were to die for. The pub had such a homely welcoming vibe and the staff were so attentive and polite. We had a lovely chat with the manager John and could see he puts his heart and soul into what he does and it pays off. We will 100% be recommending this pub and returning! Thank you!

We visited The White Horse pub on a number of occasions, as we really like the overall ambience. I decided to treat my wife and I to a festive meal. We ordered drinks, and the main course was brought out. It only came to mind later, but they did not ask how I wanted my steak. I was going to wait a little while for the pudding, but when I visited the toilet and came back, the pudding was there. The food was wonderful, and even though I have highlighted some issues, we will be going back
