Our first visit to this tidy, spacious establishment. For those of a certain age there are some comfort food items on the menu including liver and bacon, steak and kidney pud and spotted dick other tastes are catered for. Mrs B. is addicted to fish and chips. Too many chips on the plate a common practice and such a waste. They scored 8/10 though. The fish’s batter was thin and crispy. Gone are the days when I could manage steak and kidney pud followed by spotted dick, so I plumped for swordfish steak. It was a meaty generous portion with tasty new potatoes, accompanied by buttered cabbage, sugar snaps and chantenay carrots all tasty and al dente. Pity about the soggy nuked broccoli. ‘Twas no...

I feel well qualified to review this pub as I’m a Londoner but its not my local and I’ve been here many times over twenty years or so. You will find a couple of bad reviews here from the masses who find a beauty spot on uTube, jump in the car on a busy summer day and then expect England to be like it was before the internet told the masses about it. Visited many times with my elderly mum, with my wife and with walking and running friends and always find it to be great warm local pub with good pub grub. This weeks lunch was no exception.

Visited here today for Sunday lunch.All five of us had a different starter.Each one was lovely.Three roast dinners,a salmon dish and a burger.We all enjoyed our main dishes and three of us made room for puddings.All of which were delicious.My only minor gripe and it is minor,as the food was enjoyed by all,would be a bit more veg to go with the three roasts.As i say it is minor but my personal choice.Have to say,it was a very late inquiry to try and get a slot,but they managed to fit us in which we were all grateful for.The service was was polite and friendly.My third visit here over a couple of years and will return. I would definitely recommend this pub if your passing and fancy a pint or a...

The pub looks lovely with all the beautiful hanging baskets. We sat inside to eat, nice variety on the menu, decent prices, and good size portions of well cooked food. It was pretty busy so I'm guessing popular with the locals. Afterwards we had a look at the outdoor seating area, we would have sat there if we'd known about it. The toilets must have had a recent refurbishment, they look great. Only negative, my friend had the seafood tagliatelle and the prawns were in their tail shells. She had a mouthful of shell.
