What a brilliant find! Looking for somewhere 'half way' to meet up with family. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the food choices (which we established are all made on the premises) were great, with the possibility to change portion sizes, etc, to suit taste and appetite. The chicken pie was amazing! We sat near the log burner, which was attended to all afternoon so we were nice & toasty on a bitter cold day! Large car park and we could see a large garden and play area for children. Loved it, great pub, we will be back.
