Nice little pub tucked away from the main road. Tanya, the manager, was really welcoming &ndash; felt comfortable straight away. Had a decent pint and a pie, which was pretty good. Just a bit on the pricey side for what it is.

Dog-friendly spot, perfect for our pup! The bar area was great for a casual meal. Service was quick even though it was packed.

Been coming here for years. That late lunch vibe is always spot on - quiet, relaxed, the light&#39;s just right. It&#39;s my go-to spot when I need a proper pause. Food&#39;s consistently solid, never lets me down. A real find.

The king prawn starter was fantastic, really well cooked. They handled a small mix-up with the order professionally, which was appreciated.

The seafood basket was cooked just right, and the fish selection looked so pretty on the plate. It&#39;s the kind of simple, careful presentation that really makes a meal feel nice.

First time trying their pizza and it&#39;s a real treat. The crust is the star - crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside. The sauce has a nice depth to it without being too heavy. Just a solid, tasty pizza.

Vegan tasting menu. Kashmir squash main was the standout. Desserts were creative too. Solid choice for plant-based dining.

The tandoori chicken was so fresh and flavourful, and the portion was generous. Really enjoyed the quality of the ingredients.

The spicy lamb sausage was the star for me, really well-spiced and juicy. The fattoush salad was fresh and crisp too.

Great pub. Linda was really attentive, and the house red was a surprisingly good match for the steak pie.

Great spot for a business lunch. Staff are attentive without being intrusive, and the menu has solid options. Portions are generous, which is appreciated. Pricing is fair for the area. The relaxed atmosphere helps get through a long meeting.

Been coming here for years, and the food is always spot on. The fried dishes never feel greasy, which is a big deal for me. The breads are light, just how I like them. It&#39;s my go-to for a reliable, quality curry.

They made my dog feel so welcome here. Brought him a water bowl straight away, and the staff were lovely with him. A really nice touch for a dog-friendly spot.

Grabbed a takeaway and ate it right by the harbour. The fish and chips were super fresh, still hot and crispy even after the short walk. Perfect for a quick bite with a view.

Spiciest curry I&#39;ve had, the Gunpowder Vindaloo Chicken. Paired well with garlic naan. Staff were quick and attentive.

Shared the nachos and garlic mushrooms. Both were spot on, exactly what you want from pub grub. Decent portions for the price too.

Popped in for a coffee and a slice of cake this afternoon. It was so chilled, perfect for a break. The staff were really on it, even with the place being packed.

Breakfast was solid - loads of choice and everything cooked properly. The harbour view from the room was a nice touch.

Stopped by for a quick drink and the staff were so nice. They let me try a sip of their house lager before I ordered a pint. The vibe in here is just really relaxed and friendly.

Been coming here for years. The pasta dishes are just like what I had in Rome &ndash; simple, hearty, and you get a good plateful for your money. No fuss, just proper food.

Came here for a quiet dinner. The service was efficient and friendly, which made the whole evening very relaxed. I particularly enjoyed the okra side dish. The prosecco was a nice surprise, too. A comfortable spot for a low-key night out.

Good spot for a quick bite. Mussels were solid, dessert was nice. Service friendly but a bit slow.

The new sharing chips were a solid menu addition. Decent portion, crispy on the outside, fluffy inside. They came out hot and well-seasoned. A nice side to share, though the aioli could have had a bit more punch.

Really lovely meal out for four people. I can especially recommend the sea bass - great presentation and delicious. Attentive waiting staff as well.

Absolutely excellent roast dinner, we will definitely be back again soon! Everything was brilliant. The lovely new landlady, Rebecca, came around personally to introduce herself and check how our meal was, really nice touch!
