Spacious and bright, with a modern feel. The atmosphere is just right&mdash;not too loud, not too quiet. A really pleasant spot to just sit with a drink and let the afternoon slip by.

The staff were really thoughtful, especially with our dietary needs. Kids&#39; meals arrived first, which was a big help. The fish and chips were solid, and they had a decent ale selection that went well with it. A proper pub experience.

The team was really helpful with my dietary restrictions. They even added a little birthday note to the dessert, which was a nice touch.

I was really impressed by the iced Thai tea mocktail. The flavour was so unique and refreshing, you could tell the ingredients were fresh. A perfect choice for a non-alcoholic option.

This pub has a fantastic atmosphere, perfect for watching sports with friends and family. The staff are attentive and the selection of beers is impressive!

Tried the set menu. Portions were huge, honestly couldn&#39;t finish it all. Good value for what you get.

The lamb chops were incredible, honestly. The mixed grill had so much flavour. Just wish the portions were a little bigger for the price.

The staff were really friendly and attentive, even on a busy Saturday night. They made the place feel welcoming.

The prawn puri was a nice start. But the pistachio king prawn curry was the star. I asked for it extra hot, and they delivered. That sweet, creamy sauce with the serious chilli kick was just right. Really hit the spot.

Been coming here for years. The food&#39;s always fresh and cooked just right, flavours are spot on. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Flying Special pizza was the move. Fresh ingredients, you can taste it. Crust had that perfect chew. Went back for it twice this month.

Came here for a hearty meal and wasn&#39;t disappointed. The portions are huge, proper comfort food. The pierogi were spot on. A shame their beer selection was a bit limited, but the Żywiec I had went down a treat with the goulash.

The Indian ice cream was the standout. It had this subtle cardamom and pistachio flavour, not too sweet, just right after the main course. A really nice finish to the meal.

Loved the vibe here - super cozy and relaxed. Their wine list is seriously impressive, I spent ages just reading it! Ended up with a lovely glass of red that paired perfectly with my pasta.

Arrived a bit late but staff were very helpful. They let us stay longer at the buffet so we could finish our meal properly. Good service when you need it.

Been coming here for years, their lamb balti is the one I keep coming back for. The sauce is rich and the meat just falls apart. Staff are always friendly and quick. A solid choice.

Really liked the bright, airy feel here. Big windows let in loads of natural light, which made it feel clean and fresh. A nice spot for a relaxed family lunch.

The app discount is a nice touch, and the free salad bar with the mains makes it feel like a decent deal. The space itself is a bit basic, but it&#39;s clean and the booths are comfy for a casual bite.

The menu is huge, which is nice when you&#39;re not sure what you fancy. I had the grilled salmon and it was really lovely. Service was friendly and prompt, no fuss at all.

Came for the bottomless brunch. Good value for the price. The cocktails were well-made and solid. Place does get very busy, so service can slow down a bit. Worth knowing if you&#39;re on a tight schedule.

A proper old-school pub, love the atmosphere. Their ale selection is solid, had a nice pint that went down a treat. Gets a bit loud later on a Saturday, but that&rsquo;s part of the charm.

Service is solid here. Staff are friendly and attentive, they handled our large group booking without any fuss. Good to see a place that gets the basics right.

Staff were really helpful with my colleague&#39;s diabetic needs, which was appreciated. The place was quiet when we arrived but got a nice buzz later on. Felt relaxed the whole time.

Service was friendly and quick. The ham, mustard, and cheese panini was nice, but I really noticed the cheese quality - it was fresh and melted perfectly. The chips were more like good homemade oven chips, not greasy at all. A comfortable spot for a simple, fresh bite.
