Booked for a big 90th birthday lunch. Went for the pensioners menu - solid choice. Everything came out quickly, even with a full table. Meals were good, desserts too. Staff handled it well, no fuss. Got us in and out smoothly.

Been coming here for years, and the Gosth Jolpai curry is always spot on. That rich, slow-cooked flavour never changes. It&rsquo;s the main reason I keep coming back.

Good spot just off the main street. Convenient for a quick business lunch, quieter than expected. Had the grilled salmon, decent portion, cooked well. Service was prompt. A solid option if you&#39;re in the area and need something efficient.

A lovely old pub with original gas lamps. The real ale was fresh and flavourful, a nice find near the park.

The lamb kebab was the star, no question. That &quot;posh&quot; salad it came with had some sort of herby dressing that just worked. Ate the whole thing before I even thought about the sides.

The service here is just right. Kamal and Ala were really attentive, but never made us feel rushed. It&#39;s the kind of friendly, easy-going place where you can just relax and enjoy your meal.

Been coming here for years. The paninis are always solid, and I&#39;m a big fan of their homemade cakes. The cheddar and apple scone is the one I keep coming back for. It&#39;s just really good.

The app deal made it a good price point. The food was tasty, but portions are a bit modest. The house red was a nice, easy match for the meal.

Been coming here for years. The mains are always a decent size, you won&#39;t leave hungry. I like their deal with the three small plates, lets you mix it up a bit. Good for a casual bite.

Been coming here for years with my dog. They&#39;ve got a proper menu for him, which is a nice touch. Staff always remember us, makes it feel like a local spot. Good to have a place that welcomes the whole family, furry ones included.

Cosy spot with really comfy seats, perfect for a quiet afternoon. The music was nice in the background. Just a lovely, relaxed place to unwind for a bit.

Been coming here for years, and the steak bites are always spot on. Just the right amount of char, never overcooked. That consistency keeps me coming back. Brooke&#39;s always friendly, too.

Cathryn and her team are so lovely. The vibe is warm, and the food is always reliable. I tried the fish and chips for the first time&mdash;the batter was light and crispy, just right. A nice spot for a relaxed evening.

The breakfast portions were huge, seriously generous. I had the full English, and the bacon was cooked just right, not too crispy. The sausages had a nice herby flavour. Couldn&#39;t finish it all.

Been coming here for years. Staff are always friendly and know the menu inside out. Makes for a relaxed lunch.

The pappardelle with mussels and fennel salami alla vodka was spot on. Pasta cooked perfectly, sauce had a great depth.

They were really good with our group, especially for the two of us who need gluten-free. So many options, which is great, but it still just felt like a regular place to eat.

Been here for breakfast a few times. The steak and eggs is solid, cooked just right. Staff are quick and friendly. Good spot to start the day, though it can get a bit busy.

The Viz annuals were a fun touch. But the main thing was the food. The pork belly was cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and just melted. The sauce was a bit too sweet for me, but the meat itself was spot on. That&#39;s what I came for.

Food&#39;s always hot and fresh, which is a nice touch. The space itself is cosy, with these warm wooden tables and soft lighting that just makes you want to stay a bit longer. A proper little find.

The free arcade games were a total hit with our group! It kept the vibes going while we waited for our drinks. The jukebox added to that classic pub feel, perfect for a casual catch-up.

Came for a quiet dinner. The ingredients felt really fresh, especially the greens in the starter. You could tell they source well. Kieran, our server, was attentive and knew the menu inside out, which helped with my dietary questions. A nice spot for a mindful meal.
