    I felt that the choices were too obvious, ie. Very plain pub grub. There were no stand out dishes that you would return especially for.

    Lunch with friends midweek. Although we had reserved a table we were offered the option of sitting inside or in the garden where full table service was available. We sat in the garden which was very pleasant and the service was first class. Food was freshly cooked and served promptly. We would not hesitate to visit again.

    I booked the table for my partner and myself, always good there for a wonderful Sunday lunch, lovely staff, good service, plenty on our plate, we never have extras as its too much for us. But like to say the stuffing balls and the cauliflower cheese always tempting. Sometimes we share a dessert, but usually im full up.
