The Robin Hood and Little John, a family owned pub and restaurant dating back to the 16th Century.

Bought by David and Fiona, the pub has recently undergone refurbishment and opened in July 2024. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 12 noon.

David and Fiona are keen to keep the traditional country pub but also incorporate some amazing home-cooked dishes created from the finest local ingredients.

    Our party of 6 enjoyed the Festive menu. Food was excellent, staff were attentive and lovely, and the atmosphere in the restaurant area was cosy and festive. Dog friendly too, so the 7th member of the party was very happy.

    Great service. High quality pub grub with great friendly service. Decent sized portions. Love this pub in the summer ☀️ but nice for a cozy dinner too. I had steak with peppercorn sauce abd cheese. Kids loved lasagne and puddings great.

    Lovely food which we enjoyed. We were a bit squashed in to the room with lots of other diners but it was ok. Service was mostly good until the end when we needed to pay so we went to the bar and sorted the bill ourselves, I think the staff had become distracted with a large party that had just come in.
