The QR code ordering was a nice touch, made it super easy to grab a quick bite. Drinks were fairly priced too.

Been coming here for years, and the vibe is always spot on. It&#39;s that cozy, low-key bistro feel that just lets you unwind. Never feels rushed, even on a busy Friday. That&#39;s the main reason I keep coming back.

The seafood spaghetti was the star for me. The pasta was cooked just right, and there was loads of fresh seafood in there. A solid tiramisu to finish things off.

Great little spot for a drink and a bite. The bar food was spot on - the burger was juicy, perfect with a local IPA. Staff were friendly and helpful. The place has a nice, cozy feel to it, feels like a proper old pub. A solid choice.

Solid local chippy. The cod was fresh, batter had a good crisp. Chips were spot on - crispy outside, fluffy inside. Decent portions. Staff were polite and helpful.

A really lovely Sunday lunch. The roast was spot on, and the menu had some nice choices. Felt like a good deal for what you get.

Great pint in the garden. Holly was a top host. Quick, easy spot for a drink.

Booked a garden cabana for a group. The roast dinners were solid, but those &#39;pigs in duvets&#39; stole the show &ndash; massive! Staff were on it, Hannah was lovely. A bit pricey, but a nice spot for a get-together.

Stopped in for a couple drinks. The staff were really friendly, no complaints there. The fireplace area was a nice spot to relax. Noticed they have a Thai kitchen attached, which seems handy if you get hungry.

Really liked the vibe here. The seats are comfy, and the background music is just right. Feels like a proper, friendly local pub. A nice, relaxed spot for a quiet meal.

Cosy spot with the open fire going - perfect for a cold evening. Staff were really friendly, and they let us bring our dog in too. Just the kind of place you want to settle into for a few hours.

The staff were so lovely and chatty, really made the evening. The portions are huge though, couldn&#39;t finish my pasta. Menu has loads of choice, which is nice.

The food was flavourful and nicely presented. The wine list had some nice options to complement the rich dishes.

Popped in for a late lunch. Sat by the window watching the boats bob around. Food was decent, nothing crazy. Just a nice, easy spot to chill for a bit.

As a vegan, I was impressed. The staff checked with the chef to confirm options and even adapted a vindaloo dish for me, which was delicious.

The food was lovely. The initial greeting was a bit awkward though, as we weren&#39;t approached right away.

Jamie&#39;s D&amp;D nights are a solid idea. It definitely brings in a different crowd. He&#39;s always on the floor, checking on tables and helping out. The vibe is fun, though it can get a bit loud when the dice start rolling!

Always come here for their truffle pasta, it&rsquo;s just so good and doesn&rsquo;t break the bank. Staff are lovely and quick, and parking round the back is a lifesaver. My go-to spot!

Been coming here for years, it&#39;s my local. The Sunday roast is always solid, proper Yorkshire puddings. Had it last week, beef was spot on. Can get a bit busy though.

Been coming here for years, and the fish and chips never disappoint. The batter is always light and crispy, the fish inside is flaky and moist. Just a solid, reliable classic.

The chicken korma was pretty good, and the lamb biryani was decent too. The free mushroom soup and veg pastry were a nice touch. A solid spot for a reliable curry.

Service was quick and the staff were really friendly. They recommended a lovely local red that went perfectly with my steak. Made the whole evening feel relaxed.

The garlic salmon portion was huge, I couldn&#39;t finish it. The curry was rich and flavourful too. Service was decent. For the price, you definitely get a lot of food.

The full English breakfast here was just right. Not greasy, cooked perfectly. I really appreciated how comfortable the seating was, made for a relaxed start to the day.

Came with a big group and the garden out back was a real find. So peaceful even though it&#39;s right on the street. Our pup was very welcome, which was a nice touch.
