    We were with friends and despite some reviws we had a lovely meal. The specials which was the xmas burger and slow rosdted pork belly were delicious. Also the steak and ale pie. Everything was hot. The winter berry cheesecake was the nicest I havevhad for a long time. The pub was quiet but not cold as some reviews had mentioned.

    We enjoyed a very good lunch thank you. My haddock risotto special was excellent, my daughter in law was very happy with the duck and the two children enjoyed their fish and chips. The children's portions were quite small so we ordered extra fries! Very good and attentive service.

    Fantastic Sunday dinner. Lovely starters and puddings as well as a really good roast. Loved the bottomless vegetable and gravy offer - although the portions were large enough that we didn't need to take advantage of these. Excellent service - would thoroughly recommend.
