First time trying a nut roast and it was a nice surprise. Really generous portion, cooked perfectly. The texture was spot on.

Despite some minor issues with service, the overall experience was positive. The local vibe and decent food make it a place worth visiting.

The service at this pub is exceptional! Our server Erin was super friendly and attentive, making our evening enjoyable.

The Sunday roast here is absolutely fantastic! The attention to detail in the food preparation is commendable, and the service from Henry was both attentive and entertaining.

The service was exceptional during my visit. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant dining experience.

The lunch deal was a solid choice. The fish was clearly fresh, and the local produce in the salad tasted like it. A nice, simple meal before heading out for that walk in the woods.

Great little find. The local ales are spot on and the food is well-priced. Very welcoming for dogs, too.

Came for a family dinner, the portions are huge! We ended up taking half the pasta home. The staff were really quick with our orders, which was a lifesaver with my toddler nephew.

Always a lovely atmosphere - dog friendly, child friendly - what else would you ask for.  Wonderful staff and great food :)

We came with the family and the portions were huge. Everyone got their fill. The staff were really helpful with the kids, too. Solid spot for a big group dinner.

Nice spot for a drink after a walk. The outdoor area is good, and they&#39;re really dog-friendly with water bowls and sausages.

Menu changes often, which I like. Good selection of drinks and wines. The space is spread over a couple of floors, feels cosy. A solid, reliable choice for a business dinner.

Lovely to see they welcome dogs, but the real highlight for me was the freshness of the ingredients in the salad. The greens were crisp and vibrant, and the grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned. A very pleasant lunch.

The live music nights are a nice touch. But honestly, I&#39;m here for the food. The fish and chips are the real draw - the batter is light and crisp, and the chips are proper thick-cut. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Been coming here for years, and the garden is still the main draw for me. Always find a quiet spot under the trees. They remember my dog too, always have a biscuit ready for him. It&#39;s just a consistently nice place to unwind.

The Tom Yum soup was the star. Just like what I had in Bangkok &ndash; that authentic, fragrant kick. Generous portion too, packed with prawns. A solid choice.

Six of us were celebrating a birthday and we were very well looked after from arrival to departure.  The service was excellent and we were cossetted by Mikhail our waiter whose jovial observations made the visit memorable.  The ambience is very relaxing and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

The burger was spot on, juicy and cooked just right. Paired it with a local craft lager that cut through the richness nicely. Service was warm and genuine. The pasta dish, however, felt a bit underwhelming compared to everything else.

Friday night ribs were spot on - tender, fell right off the bone. The band was a nice touch, kept the energy up. Staff were friendly, but it did take a while to get the bill sorted. Still, a solid night out.

Solid pizza, cold beer. Sat in the garden on a sunny afternoon. That was it really. Nice spot.

Lovely spot by the water, and they&#39;re dog-friendly too.

Took my mum for a birthday lunch. Staff very polite and attentive. Food great, lovely atmosphere, jazz music just right volume. No rush to finish. Perfect access for wheelchair user in our group and plenty of space. We had a lovely time

Great selection of ales, perfect for a casual pint.

Been coming here for years. The staff are always friendly and helpful, no matter how busy it gets. They remember regulars, which is nice. Makes the place feel local.

Owen at the bar was on top of things even during the rush. Drinks came quickly, service was sharp. Solid spot for an after-work pint.

The staff were really helpful with my dietary needs, checked everything with the kitchen. Quick service too.

Been coming here for years for the Sunday roast. The Yorkshire pudding is spot on, and you get a proper portion for the price. The dining room feels a bit dated, but that&#39;s not why I&#39;m here.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food here. The pub itself is beautiful, and the service was exceptional&mdash;definitely a place I will return to!
