Popped in for a quick drink. The bartender crafted a lovely non-alcoholic spritz for my daughter, really thoughtful. Quiet spot, no blaring TVs. My old fashioned was a bit heavy on the bitters, but that&rsquo;s just my taste.

Loved the open, airy feel of this pub. It&rsquo;s modern but still cosy, and the light just hits right in the afternoon. Perfect spot to catch up with friends.

The staff were really nice. Food came out quickly, which was a relief after a long day. Just a nice, calm vibe in there.

The staff here are so friendly and helpful, even when it&#39;s packed. They made sure I was comfortable and my water glass was never empty. It&#39;s nice to feel looked after without having to ask.

The landlord here is a gem. So friendly and genuinely wants everyone to have a good time. He checked on us a couple of times, made sure we had everything we needed. It&#39;s a small thing, but that kind of personal touch really makes a difference.

Lovely little pub, feels really cosy. They&#39;ve got it split up into a few smaller rooms, which is nice. Makes it feel more intimate than one big open space.

Parking was a breeze, which is always a plus. The food arrived promptly and piping hot. My only note is that the wine list felt a bit limited for the menu&mdash;a more thoughtful pairing selection would really complement those hearty dishes.

The small plates menu is a real winner after their recent tweaks. The grilled octopus was spot on, and the burrata with heirloom tomatoes was super fresh. Perfect for sharing with a couple of friends.

Nice to find a pub that&#39;s so welcoming to dogs. The water bowls are a thoughtful touch after a walk.

A decent spot for local cask ales. They had a few from Wensleydale Brewery on my visit, which were pretty good. The bar staff were friendly and seemed to know their stuff.

The staff were so kind to fit us in for a birthday without a reservation. They even brought out our cake, which was a lovely touch.

The menu changes often, which I like. Last time the sea bass was cooked just right, skin crispy. I&rsquo;ve been back a few times now.

Been coming here for years, and the half-and-half pizza is a lifesaver. Lets me get my usual pepperoni and still try something new.

Menu&#39;s a bit limited, but letting you bring your own food is a smart move. Good for when you&#39;re just there to watch the game.

I had an incredible meal with the gluten-free chicken burger, which was spot on! The service was attentive and made the visit even better.

Dropped by for lunch. The cocktails are the real draw here, loads of interesting options. Went for a spicy margarita and it was spot on. Food was decent too, but those drinks are what I&rsquo;ll remember.

Stumbled upon this place. The wine list is huge, had a great glass of red. Staff really knew their stuff when I asked. Cool, cozy spot.

Management handled the safety protocols well without killing the vibe. Tables were spaced, staff wore masks, and it still felt like a normal dinner out. Efficient and sensible approach.

The views are stunning, but the wine list is a bit limited. Had a decent Pinot Noir with my steak, but would have loved more local options to match the scenery. Still, a lovely spot for a quiet pint.

Lovely local pub. The staff are so friendly and helpful, which really makes it a nice spot to catch up with friends.

Had a team dinner here last night. The staff were really attentive, made sure everyone&#39;s drinks were topped up without us having to ask. Made the whole thing run smoothly.

Lovely little pub, perfect for a chilly night. The wood-burning stove is a really nice touch. I appreciated that they had a couple of lighter, fresh salad options on the menu alongside the heartier pub classics. A nice spot to warm up.

Aqib was our server and he was great. Super friendly, knew the whole menu when we had questions. Service was quick and he just had a good vibe. Made the dinner feel really relaxed.

Loved the heated booths in the back garden. Perfect for a chilly evening, and just a short stroll from Victoria.

We&#39;ve been coming for breakfast every week. I really appreciate how fresh the ingredients always taste, especially the avocado in my usual order. It&#39;s consistently good. Shanon is our regular waitress and she&#39;s lovely.

The old billiard hall interior is stunning, especially the Art Deco dome. A real treat for the eyes.

This is now our go to carvery. Every visit is the same good service, good quality food and very welcoming, even if we have not booked a table. Thanks

The Christmas bottomless brunch was fun! Our waiter John was so helpful, really made it easy for our group to just relax and enjoy.

I love coming here for special occasions! The staff are amazing and always ensure my food allergies are taken seriously, which makes dining out so much easier.
