This place has such a nice, easygoing vibe. The staff are really friendly and the crowd is always a good mix. I&#39;ve noticed the food has gotten a lot better lately, which is a bonus. Just a solid local spot.

Good range of craft beers, some interesting rotating options. Prices are a touch high, but you get what you pay for in terms of selection.

Nice local pub feel. They&#39;ve got a decent range of drinks, which I always appreciate. My pint was spot on, and the wine list had a few interesting options that paired well with the food. A solid choice for a casual evening.

Managed to snag a last-minute table for a big group, which was a lifesaver! The staff were so on it, really attentive. Made the whole evening easy and fun for everyone.

We booked a table of 3 adults and a large labradoodle. They made a big fuss of the dog, which he loved, and made us very welcome. The food was great with a huge choice.

Love that they&#39;re dog-friendly! The staff were so nice to our pup, and the rooms are spacious and clean. Perfect for traveling with a pet, makes everything so much easier.

Tuesday steak night is solid. The steak was cooked just right, and the staff were really helpful with the gluten-free options.

Lovely spot by the river, perfect for a sunny lunch. The terrace seating was very comfortable, and watching the swans drift by was so relaxing. Service was friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience feel effortless. A really pleasant way to spend an afternoon.

Popped in for a drink, but the food coming out of the kitchen looked too good to resist. Ended up getting the fish finger sandwich and the mac and cheese. The sandwich was spot on, really hit the spot. Mac and cheese was decent, maybe a bit too rich for me.

Food&#39;s clearly fresh and made to order. Had to wait a bit, but the portion was generous and tasted good. No complaints from me.

Decent pub with a traditional vibe, quite spacious. Had a couple of drinks here before heading out. The atmosphere was pretty good for that. A bit on the pricey side for the area, but fine.

The family room was spacious and spotless, perfect for our needs. Staff were polite and efficient. Good value for the location.

We had been to the windhover before but its got even betterwarm welcome has we entered the door we was seated straight away by the window as requested staff was very good &amp; cheerful meals was exerlent nicely presented &amp; hot sweet also just to say have no doubt about returning great value thank you for a great Anniversary dinner

A proper old-school pub, and they let you bring your dog in. That&rsquo;s a nice touch. The regulars seem friendly, and it just feels like a comfortable spot to settle in.

The new owners have done a great job here. It&#39;s such a cosy spot for catching up with friends, especially with the fire going. We shared the fish and chips and a burger - proper pub food done right. A really nice, relaxed vibe.

Tayla and the team were really on it for our dinner. Friendly, checked in without being overbearing. Food came out at a good pace, which is all you can ask for really.

Came for the seabass after a friend mentioned it. Really nicely cooked, flaky and moist. The whole menu looks promising, but honestly, the lighting and those dark wood tables just made it a really comfortable spot to unwind.

Good place to catch a game. Multiple screens, so you can follow a few matches at once. Decent beer selection on tap. It got a bit loud later in the evening, but that&#39;s expected. Solid for what it is.

The loaded fries with chicken were good. Staff even threw in some extra cheese sauce for free, which was cool.

Great service and quality food. Served at a good pace and piping hot. Pleasant waitress Amila??  Not sure if that was her name.Its my go to restaurant to go to. Knowing that everything will be spot on with a good atmosphere. Food of a high quality and fair price

Managed to snag a seat right away&mdash;lucky, as it gets packed. The food was just... really enjoyable. That&#39;s it. Just a nice, simple meal.

Portions are definitely generous. The sea trout was perfectly cooked, and the Thai fishcakes were so flavourful. We were absolutely stuffed afterwards!

Cosy little pub, perfect for a cold night. The fire was lit and it just felt so welcoming. I&rsquo;ll definitely be back when I&rsquo;m in the area.

Sunday Roast Trio and Duo, amazing! chocolate Bomb and Trio for dessert, fantastic! We ordered mixed meat from mains and mixed mini desserts, we are all so happy to taste different food in one meal! Scrumptious and satisfied our greedy wishes on food!

Met some friends here last night. The vibe is just right for a proper catch-up - not too loud, so you can actually hear each other! The pale ale was super fresh. Food was solid as usual. A reliable spot in town for a casual hang.

The fish and chips were spot on, and the cider went down a treat. It does get packed, but that just adds to the buzz. Really good for a catch-up with mates, even if you have to wait a bit for a table.

The refurbishment is a huge upgrade. Love the new layout and lighter decor, it just feels so much more open and inviting now. A much nicer spot to relax over a meal.
