    I was very grateful for a vegan option of a roast dinner. However the nut roast lacked flavour and texture, but still tasty. May be consider adding a vegan Yorkshire pud. Also it would be nice to have more than one vegan choice on the desert menu. Overall a lovely meal My go to pub for drinks and food I will return Thank you 😊

    The food was over priced and average quality. Would not recommend for anything other than a drink

    The roast dinner is always good. I also like the burger. Other items on the menu are a bit dear for what they are (i.e. Chicken supreme with gnocchi).

    Staff were very friendly and attentive, even though they were busy. It was quite noisy , which made it difficult for my husband with hearing aids , and my autistic daughter. The Sunday roast was okay , although the swede had far too much pepper in it and the roast potatoes skin was chewy instead of crispy. Everything else was good
