The Sunday jam session is worth it for the live music alone. It&rsquo;s a chilled-out vibe, but honestly, I&rsquo;m just here for the tunes. The music was solid, really fills the space. That&rsquo;s the main draw for me.

Thursday quiz night is a blast! The host keeps it lively and it&#39;s free to join. We grabbed the student deal on drinks and ended up winning a bar tab. Perfect for a laugh with mates.

The scones were lovely, crisp outside and fluffy inside. But the afternoon tea set is a bit pricey for what you get.

The dirty fries were a real highlight, so much flavour and surprisingly filling for a small plate. The cocktails looked great but service was a bit slow, had to wait a while to order a second round.

Decent local pub, staff were friendly and efficient. Had a couple of pints in the garden on a warm evening, very pleasant. Good spot for an after-work drink.

The rum tasting with Tom was good. He had his own notes and knew his stuff. For the price though, I expected a slightly bigger pour of each sample.

The model car displays are a nice touch. Had a quick coffee meeting here, the background music was at a good volume for conversation. Decent spot for a casual catch-up.

Perfect for a quick coffee or a pint. The comfy sofas are a lifesaver for a lunch break. Just what you need to unwind for 30 mins before heading back. Service was fast, got my order in no time.

The beer garden is really nice, especially on a sunny afternoon. Staff were quick with our drinks. Prices seemed fair for what you get.

A handy spot for a break when you&#39;re out shopping. Their selection of cakes and biscuits is decent for a quick pick-me-up.

Been coming here for years, and the bread basket is always spot on. Fresh, crusty, with a great selection. They still do the little olive oil and balsamic dip on the side, which is a nice touch. It&#39;s just consistently good.

Popped in for lunch while on a work trip. The daily specials were pretty good, with some nice Italian touches. Proper home-cooked style, a decent change from the usual. Portions were generous, though the dining room was a bit warm.

The owner is lovely and the place is dog-friendly, which is a nice touch. Had a quick coffee and pastry, both were decent.

The beer selection is solid, and the atmosphere is genuinely warm. The decor is a bit rustic and could use a refresh in spots, but it didn&#39;t detract from a good evening. A reliable spot for a casual pint.

Steak and Stilton pie was the highlight. You can really taste the quality in the filling, proper local beef. The crust was a bit thick for my liking, but the flavour was spot on. Would order it again.

The onion rings were actually pretty decent. Crispy, not too greasy. The chips were alright too, just standard. But honestly, the whole thing felt a bit... thrown together? Like they weren&#39;t really trying.
