    We were with friends and despite some reviws we had a lovely meal. The specials which was the xmas burger and slow rosdted pork belly were delicious. Also the steak and ale pie. Everything was hot. The winter berry cheesecake was the nicest I havevhad for a long time. The pub was quiet but not cold as some reviews had mentioned.

    Have put a review on Tripadvisor. We were not impressed. We had looked up reviews for this pub , which were favourable. Our experience was anything but. The pub was cold. The only warm area was the nook where the fire was lit.. Our order of 2x fish and chips plus 1 steak and mushroom pie took 45 minutes to arrive. Twice I asked the staff to chase our order as later arrivals were being served before us. The food was uninspiring. We had booked, the pub was only a third full, so excuses, Such as we are busy, short staffed, just do not wash. Such a pity as we had looked forward to meeting up. We shall not visit again
