We serve local real ales & craft beers, wine and a specialist gin and whisky selection and delicious coffee.

Dogs are welcome, 'paws on the floors' please.
Children welcome, we have a kids menu.

Delicious food but took over an hour to arrive and they didn’t apologise- maybe they were short of staff? Also the pear and rhubarb fritters were very disappointing- you couldn’t taste the fruit. I usually love it here just a bit of a letdown today.
