Lovely old pub, the fire was going which was so nice. Had the steak pie, the beef was really tender and the pastry was spot on. Just a shame the bench seating was a bit hard, but the staff were very friendly.

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.

I was pleasantly surprised by their vegan options! The staff was super helpful and even whipped up a simple pasta dish for me that wasn&#39;t on the menu. Really tasty.

Food was solid, and it&#39;s nice to be just outside the tourist zone. Felt like a proper local spot. The vibe was relaxed, not rushed. A good find for a casual dinner.

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

Been coming here for years. Their homemade kombucha is the real deal, especially the rhubarb one. Not too sweet, just right. It&#39;s the main reason I stop by.

The beef cheek was lovely and tender. The staff were so attentive and friendly, which made the whole evening really pleasant.

A decent spot for brunch. The grilled halloumi flatbread was pretty good, fresh and nicely seasoned. Service was quick and friendly. The place has a nice, rustic feel to it.

The waffles are massive and really tasty. The place is lovely, clean and bright. I just wish the chairs were a bit more comfortable for a longer sit-down.

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.

Stumbled upon this spot after checking in. The sausage rolls were spot on, really flaky pastry and good quality filling. Owner was lovely too.

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

The cask ales here are a proper treat. I tried a couple of the local ones and they were spot on. Really adds to that classic pub feel. Prices are decent too.

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.

Just tried their new pizza. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy, and the burrata on top was a lovely touch. Really hope this one stays on the menu for good!

Specials menu is solid, good variety. The set menu offers decent value for money. Food quality is consistent, no complaints there.

The chicken mandi was spot on, tasted exactly like what I remember from my trip. Portion size was decent for the price, definitely enough for two.

The som tum here is fantastic, but wow, that spice level is no joke. I love a good kick, but even for me it was a lot. Maybe ask for mild if you&#39;re not sure. Still, the flavours were spot on.

I had a wonderful evening at The Pine Marten, where the ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. The staff, especially Lily and Layla, were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our visit truly memorable.

Been going here for years, staff are always quick and friendly. Last time my son was with me, he&#39;s autistic, and they handled it really well. Just made the whole thing easy.

Lovely afternoon tea, and the staff were so friendly. They even gave us some cakes to take home for later!

Been coming here for years. The staff are always friendly and have a good laugh with you. It&#39;s that kind of relaxed, familiar feeling that keeps me coming back. Makes the whole place feel like a proper local spot.

Been coming here for years. The breakfast still hits the spot, really fills you up. Coffee&#39;s always good and strong. Portions are decent for the price, can&#39;t complain.

The full English was spot on, and the coffee hit the right note. But what really got me was the light in the morning, streaming through the big window onto the wooden tables. Just a lovely, quiet start to the day.

Really liked the space, felt open and inviting. The food was solid, and everyone working there seemed genuinely nice. Prices felt about right for what you get.

The fish and chips were spot on. Crispy batter, fresh fish. The real winner for me was the house pale ale&mdash;cut through the richness perfectly. A bit pricey for a casual meal, but the pairing made it worthwhile.

Been here a few times for a quick bite. It&rsquo;s a decent spot for a casual meal or a pint. The food&rsquo;s good, plenty of choice. Staff are friendly, never feel rushed. 👍

Popped in to get some work done. Wi-Fi was solid and I found a spot with a power outlet easily. Staff were nice about me staying for a couple of coffees. Good spot if you need to focus.
