    Horrid calamari, horrid chicken wings, lovely Brie bites, Cold stuffing on the carvery, chips weren’t great, onion rings very greasy. Long wait for food, not a great meal. The website made it look good, shame it wasn’t.

    The pub was quiet in the eating area so we had our choice of seats. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was tasty and there was plenty of it. Overall we had a lovely meal and it was good value.

    For a Christmas menu, the food I regret to say was no more than average. Service was attentive and friendly.
