    .I have been dining here since the '80s. Gone is the more traditional, formal dining of that era. Over the past few years, I've enjoyed several very good meals here, usually with a high quality ale. The Irish stew and shepherd’s pie are my usual fare. These two are called 'enduring traditions,' and I think they are as good, if not better than in past years
