An unassuming but charming little pub next to a canal and if the weather is kind there is plenty of outdoor seating to watch the swans, ducks and occasional barge on the water and there's a children's play area too.

I have driven past it on occasions but never ventured in. I think it has had its ups and downs in the past but the reviews looked good recently so we decided to visit for one of my families bi-monthly Sunday Lunches. We were not disappointed, it was fairly quiet at 2pm on a Sunday, but gradually got a lot busier and when we left at 415pm, there were lots of people sitting outside in the sunshine.

We booked here as a family of 7. It was very busy as it was a sunny Sunday. We ordered our meals. Had a little wait for them as it was very busy. Lyndsey was very apologetic. All meals arrived lovely and clean plates at the end. My 2 granddaughters especially love the zip wire! Always a warm welcome in this establishment. All staff are lovely but a special mention for Lyndsay who is so friendly and has time for everyone even when it’s extremely busy! Book a table now
