The live band on Saturday night was a nice surprise. They played some pop covers, not too loud, which made the evening feel more lively. It&#39;s a good option if you want some background music without it being overwhelming.

Popped in for lunch, fish and chips. Portion was massive, honestly could&#39;ve shared it. Beer and cider were decent, staff had a good suggestion there. Chips were proper crispy, fish was nice and flaky. Solid feed for the price.

Lovely little wine bar, perfect for a catch-up with friends. The staff really know their stuff - they suggested a wine that went so well with the pasta we brought in. Made the whole evening feel relaxed and easy.

A solid, classic pub. The fish and chips were pretty good &ndash; nice crispy batter. Plenty of seating downstairs, which is handy. Staff were friendly enough. A decent spot for a casual meal.

Managed to squeeze in a birthday bash for 17 of us, kids and all. The tables were pushed together just right, didn&#39;t feel cramped at all. Staff were super chill about the whole thing.

Great vibe with karaoke and pool. Drinks are a decent price, especially with the student discount. Lewis at the bar was really helpful.

Had to wait about half an hour for a table, but it was fine. The service from James was really nice and friendly, which made the wait easier. I had the mince and tatties, and it was just what I wanted. A comfortable, easy meal.

Been coming here for years, their fish and chips is the real deal. The batter is always perfectly crisp, and the fish inside is a proper, flaky piece. Chips are spot on too. It&#39;s just a solid, satisfying meal every time.

The gin tasting was really informative. I appreciated how Abbie explained the botanicals in each one. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and thoughtfully sourced. A nice way to spend an evening.

Lovely casual spot. The food was spot on, and they had a nice selection of wines by the glass to go with it.

Mussels were fresh and well-seasoned, easily the best I&#39;ve had. The rest of the meal was solid, though the haggis wasn&#39;t for me.

Came for the breakfast, had the vegan option. Honestly, the portion was huge, couldn&#39;t finish it all. For what you pay, you&#39;re definitely getting your money&#39;s worth. The food itself was good, solid pub grub.

The loaded chips were fresh, with good quality cheese and bacon. The Crofters Pie had a nice flaky crust and the filling was hearty. Portions were generous, felt like a proper meal.

Fish and chips spot on. The fish was perfect, crispy batter, not greasy at all. Mashed peas tasted fresh, like from a garden. Good portion.

Stumbled upon this spot and it&rsquo;s a regular now. Their beer list is seriously good - tried a local pale ale I hadn&rsquo;t seen anywhere else. The &pound;2 pool table is a nice touch too.

Decent selection of local drafts here. Grabbed a pint after work, it was a bit pricier than I expected, but the beer itself was really nice. Good spot for a drink.

David&#39;s a top bloke, always looks after us. The place is spotless, and the food/drink deals are solid.

Popped in without a booking on a busy Friday and they squeezed us in. The steak and ale pie was spot on, proper comfort food. Staff were dead sound.

Josh was brilliant. Super friendly, remembered our drinks, and just made the whole thing smooth. Honestly, it&rsquo;s the service that sticks with you. Might go back just for that.

Popped in before a gig. The place was buzzing for a Monday night! Portions are huge, my burger was stacked. Cocktails were on a weekday deal too, which was a nice surprise on the bill.

I had an amazing experience at this cozy restaurant. The staff was incredibly attentive, and the sea trout and honey cake were outstanding. The view of the park added to the lovely atmosphere.

Loved the truffle fries and the Ladybug cocktail here. The vibe on Ashton Lane is great. But honestly, for the portion size you get, the prices are a bit steep. It&#39;s a fun spot, just wish you got a bit more for your money.

Irene&#39;s been my go-to bartender for ages. She remembers what I like, even if I&#39;m just in the mood for something different. That kind of attention keeps me coming back. Her cocktail suggestions are always spot-on.

Loved the vibe here, really lively and welcoming. Perfect spot for a relaxed evening out. They&#39;re super dog-friendly too, which was a nice bonus. Staff were on it, made us feel looked after.

Lots of big screens for the game, which was great. The tables were wiped down quickly after people left, so it never felt messy. Good beer selection too.

Been coming here for years, it&#39;s my local. The wine list changes a lot, always find something new by the glass. The big cheese and meat board is a decent feed for the price. Staff know their stuff.

Solid pub, good drinks selection. The fish and chips were spot on - crispy batter, proper chips. Plenty of screens for the match but it wasn&#39;t too loud to chat. Decent spot.

They let us bring our dog in, which was a lovely surprise. The staff were still so kind, even though the place was absolutely packed.

Been coming here for years. The fish and chips are always fresh, and the outdoor spot by the lock is perfect for a pint. Moonwake&#39;s beer is a nice local touch. Sometimes the service is a bit slow when it&#39;s busy, but it&#39;s a reliable local spot.

The veggie curry was really tasty, and my mate&#39;s lamb dish looked great too. They&#39;ve got a solid menu for everyone. Portions are decent, prices fair. Just a nice, straightforward meal.
