The waiting staff were excellent - cheerful, appropriately chatty, prompt - and the food (we ate mostly off the specials menu) was plentiful and good. All the party enjoyed it and would go again.

The Olde Dog Inn is the usual meeting place for me and a couple of former colleagues. Firstly, the food is great, secondly, the service is superb, and finally, we are always led to a table where we can talk amongst ourselves. We have been going there for a few years now and unless something changes we will continue to do so.
