13.1.25 - Staff serving were polite, professional and friendly. Food was hot and very good. Just personal preference; would have loved pork sausage roll on the pastry section, not black pudding and pork. All round good value for money. Would definitely visit again for breakfast.

The food was excellent, the service excellent and our dog was as equally spoilt. The snug was very tempting, but if we sat by the fire I think we would all would have fallen asleep
