Went for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The Staff were very friendly & welcoming. Steve in the restaurant was attentive and gave excellent service. The food was very good, came quickly and we really enjoyed it. We weren’t rushed at all. Would definitely go again

First time visiting and we were hoping to find a new local pub which was dog friendly to take our new pup, following our experience would definitely recommend avoiding! Didn't even get to try the food or even get inside the pub! We parked up and proceeded to try and let our pup run off some steam before having lunch but as we walked down the driveway we were shouted at by an incredibly rude female who unfortunately refused to give her name but can only assume she was either the landlady/manageress due to the references to "my pub". She told us we could not park in their car park if we weren't going to use the pub. We explained we were just walking our dog but were then going to have lunch with them, however we were then spoken to extremely aggressively to say "why should she mind our car while we went for a walk?" telling us to park in the road and move it when we returned. She then asked what time we were booked in as they were fully booked, when I tried to explain that their website states that its "first come first served" for the areas with dogs and you're not able to book she told me that I was lying and if I had clicked on the booking form I could put information in the special requirements. Despite trying to explain, she was unwilling to listen and then was again extremely rude and aggressive stating that she would inform head office. Having read other reviews, this lady really does need to be spoken to about her manner and tone with customers even if she felt she was in the right and we were wrong there are appropriate ways to speak to potential customers. We could understand if it was a busy location where the parking facilities could be abused but this pub has a large parking area, of which there were only 2 other cars parked in when we arrived at 11.50am, and is in a quiet country location. Unable to leave a review without giving 1 star but wouldn't give that if we were able to. Appalling experience which could have been handled completely differently!

Good attentive staff, reasonable prices, good food and a good location. Only 3 stars as the rear of the pub is a bit neglected and scruffy, would like to see the patio area not taped off, but I guess it's earmarked for improving. Saying that, plenty of safe space for kids to play and just enough tables. Recommended pub for a sunny day ☀️

I'm happy to update my review, previously I gave the place 2 stars, years past the service was terrible. Decided to go back after a few years away, what a great place it is now. Meal was served quickly, tasted great, staff helpful and friendly. We will be back 👍. Happy to delete my old review and give the place credit for what it is today.

We visited today as a 'recce' for a large family booking in August and it was wonderful! Delicious food, excellent, friendly service - all very helpful and not over-bearing. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and a subtle soundtrack. Highly recommended.
