Great spot to bring friends (and dogs!). The carvery is as good as they say, and the staff were super welcoming.

Hidden gem indeed. The steak and Stilton pie was massive, could barely finish it. Pork belly portion was just as generous. For the price, you&#39;re getting a lot on the plate.

The homemade pies are a bargain and very tasty. I liked the simple, no-fuss vibe in here &ndash; just a solid spot for a good-quality bite with your pint. The wooden tables and benches felt proper cosy.

The staff were so lovely with our dog, even brought him a water bowl without us asking. Made the whole lunch feel relaxed. Food was decent, but honestly that bit of kindness for the pup was the highlight.

Found this spot and tried their new karaoke rooms. The manager was really nice and helpful, which made the whole evening easy and relaxed.

The steak and ale pie was so rich and flavourful. The crust was a bit firm for me, but that filling!

The location is very central, making it a great spot to grab a bite before heading to the theatres or shops. The menu offers a variety of options at reasonable prices.

A decent spot for local cask ales. They had a few from Wensleydale Brewery on my visit, which were pretty good. The bar staff were friendly and seemed to know their stuff.

Booked a surprise birthday party here. The staff were really helpful with decorations, which was a nice touch. Food was good too.

The staff were so nice, especially with our dog. They even brought him a water bowl. Felt like we were just popping round a friend&#39;s place.

Great place, friendly staff good GF options! Pizza/burgers also looked great. Beer pong and good cocktails on offer

The Sunday roast here is spot on. Beef was cooked just right, not overdone. They brought an extra jug of gravy without me asking, which was perfect for the generous Yorkshire puddings. Portions are big, left feeling very full.

The soft play area kept our little ones busy for ages, which was a lifesaver. Staff were really sweet with the kids and didn&#39;t rush us at all. A solid spot for a family meal when you just need everyone to be happy.

Been coming here for years. Love the old arcade games and pool tables - they&#39;ve always kept them in good shape. The local photos and stuff on the walls are a nice touch. It&#39;s just a solid, fun spot.

The space is perfect for a big group breakfast. We all had room to spread out and chat comfortably.

Popped in for a pint with the lads. They let you bring your dog in, which is a nice touch. Good spot to just sit and unwind.

A decent spot for a quiet afternoon. The atmosphere is pretty relaxed, even with the football on the telly. Good for a pint and a read of the paper. The staff are fine, though service can be a little slow when it gets busy.

The chorizo croquettes were tasty, and the three-course set menu is a good deal. The space itself is really bright and airy.

Came for the Sunday roast and went for the lamb shank. It was so tender it just fell off the bone, and the roasties were spot on. A proper, hearty plate of food.

The Sunday roast is lovely, feels just like home cooking. I really appreciated the Yorkshire puddings - they were so light and fresh, not at all stodgy. The gravy had a nice depth of flavour too, clearly made from proper stock. Just a heads up, it&#39;s served on the first floor.

The pork ribs were spot on, really tender. Tatties Bravas had a nice kick to them too. The whole &#39;Yorkshire tapas&#39; thing is a fun idea, though some portions felt a bit on the small side for the price. Still, a decent meal.

Steak and ale pie was perfect for a quick bite. Pastry crisp, filling rich and hearty.

My go-to for a quick lunch. The steak special was good, chips are always spot on. In and out in under 30 mins, which is key for me.

Great spot for a catch-up with mates. We grabbed a table in the cosy back room and it felt really relaxed, not packed in at all. Plenty of room to actually hear each other talk!

Quick bite at lunch. Food came out fast, the nibbles were spot on. Place is dog-friendly, which is a plus. Got a bit loud when the game was on, but fine after. Good for a speedy lunch.

The barman knew his stuff, suggested a great local ale to go with the pie. Perfect spot for a pint in such an old building.

The bottomless brunch here is fantastic! Our server Simon was attentive and made sure we never ran out of drinks. Highly recommend for a fun outing!

The fish supper was so fresh, you could taste the sea. It came out steaming hot, and the batter was just right. That first bite made the whole evening.

The gluten-free menu is solid. Staff knew their stuff when I asked about allergies.

Booked the pub for a birthday do. Staff were really helpful with our requests for the music and decorations, which made things easy.
