    The food was pleasant but for a Friday evening it didn't have a great deal of atmosphere - we were sat in an empty part of the room on a table that would seat about 6 when there was just 2 of us.

    The booking had not been acted upon by the staff. Oblivious to it. So,. we were put into an empty side room. Not set up for dining . 2 menus brought to us by the waitress and told "its bar service" . The menu was fine if you liked meat. We decided there was nothing on the menu to suit us. We took the menus back to the waitress and explained this. Retort "oh ok". Went back to chatting with those around. Totally uninterested and unconcerned whether we ate there or not. We left and found a very nice meal down the road.

    The food, service and ambience were just perfect! We even got a complimentary bottle of Prosecco and rose petals on our bed because we were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and staying the night 🥰

    A fantastic traditional pub environment with great beer, food and service. Limited but traditional style menu and the food quality was exceptional. CAMRA members should ensure they carry their card as they allow us to enjoy a good discount
