Pleasant local bar/eatery with polite and efficient staff and an easy going laid back atmosphere. On my last visit my pint took a while to pour but it was of excellent quality and was well worth the wait. Has plenty of big screens for watching sport if that’s your thing and it can get particularly busy during the Six Nations rugby tournament in February and March. Have not eaten here before, but the food looks good and would try it on a future visit.

Came expecting to get eggs Benedict and scrambled egg on toast for my son to be told the menu has all changed and there's no breakfast options. I cannot fault the staff as they helped out with my kids. However nachos without sour cream is a crime! Also the server asked if my little boy would like a scoop of ice cream and sauce so I agreed, then my son asked for more so the man got him more. He failed to tell me it was £3 a bowl so I got conned £6 for ice cream. The waiter made out like it was free!

Would have been 5 stars, reserved a table to watch the rugby, plus drinks and nibbles however a couple came in and asked for the football to be shown, (take it they were locals), so we did not complain we just finished our drinks and left.

Really nice and friendly pub. We stopped here for some drinks and food and were delighted with our choice. Staff were very friendly and very quick with their service. Food was amazing and luckily open until 10. I love that breakfast is all day
