    Amazing Sunday roast! We enjoyed the perfectly cooked sirloin roast beef and trio of meats. The crispy roast potatoes and selection of vegetables were also delicious! Family friendly local pub, would highly recommend!

    Amazing food. Really crispy roast potatoes which is rare to find! Really enjoyable food however lunch took over 3 hours for 3 courses which is a bit much.

    The Sunday roasts were superb, we had chicken, turkey, lamb and pork , One of each!) The service was excellent and we were not rushed, even though, due to a miscommunication on our part, we were an hour late starting our meal. We look forward to visiting again soon. Thank you to all the staff for great service.

    Disappointing. Overcooked lamb. Had to request mint sauce and apple sauce. Overall comparing to other local pubs we didn't have the good meal we'd expected.

    Most amazing roast pork lunch today, very good sized portion. Followed by the ice cream in a brandy snap basket with toffee sauce and popcorn, delicious! Staff very attentive and friendly. Good value too.

    A tasty Sunday lunch and a lovely venue. Friendly staff and we parked right outside the pub. Prices have gone up a little in 2025 but its quality food. Try it, we recommend this place for couples or families.

    This is a lovely venue which we have visited on a few occasions. This visit was on a Sunday for lunch. Very busy and consequently quite noisy, which was expected. However it was very cold despite having a lot of people there. The roast was a very good size with plenty of vegetables on the side, but the meals could have been hotter.
