About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Kid-friendly
  • Good for special occasions
We want to offer everything we believe a village pub should - brilliant, genuinely home cooked food, fantastic cask ale and a warm welcome for everyone from families to dog walkers, from locals to cyclists and from ramblers to business customers.

Chuck in some free wi-fi, freshly ground coffee, a kids corner with board games, and we should be all set.

We look forward to seeing you soon....

    It was so disgusting that we didn’t even eat. Filthy. Bad atmosphere. Seemed like a bunch of mates of the owner just hanging around with their dogs. Drinks were horrible. Don’t think beer lines had been cleaned ever. Surprised it is even open and passed any health / hygiene tests. Stay well away.

    On ordering we were told few dishes were not available. Due to limited choices all of us ordered from the daily specials, three the same, the chicken curry taste was fine but the amount in the bowl was not even 20% it looked that one portion was shared out between three and the fourth order was meant to have stir fry vegetables but it tasted and looked like they leftovers from the chow mien which was one of dishes not available!!

    Booked a table with friends for Sunday lunch roast and were very disappointed when handed a BBQ menu. The food was much to be desired and very basic in cardboard boxes. Very let down as we had told our friends about your usual Sunday roast and were all looking forward to it, totally spoilt our Sunday!

    Having eaten here on numerous occasions we were very disappointed. The table was sticky and I asked for it to be cleaned as my arms kept sticking to it. The waitress cleaned it but it made no difference. The Yorkshire puddings were burnt and the reheated roast potatoes were inedible, Charged 50p more for the roast pork than advertised and for a beverage that wasn’t ordered.
