I have been there several times. It is local. The restaurant is lovely, has a real ambiance and food is really good. We had a Christmas dinner. Very economical. Extremely enjoyable and the servings are really generous. You don't need a dessert.

My wife and I wanted to avoid the Father's Day crowds of hordes of children running amok, so arrived about 6.45 in the evening. The pub was crowded, but fortunately, they had a free table. Unfortunately, it was near the door to the garden, which was propped open, letting in a cold draught. Another customer got up twice and closed it. I had smoked mackerel on a bed of leaves and warm potato salad to start, which was exceptionally tasty. We both wanted the roast beef, but they'd run out. We had the roast chicken, which was very good. It came with roast potatoes (a bit overdone), peas, cabbage, broccoli, and mashed swede, so we got our daily allocation of vegetables. I wanted a second pint of Tribute ale, but they'd run out. I had London Pride instead, which I was fine with, but it did seem strange that they promote Tribute so much - umbrellas in the garden with the Tribute logo - and then run out. My wife had ice cream and the portions were generous. We had to ask twice for the bill and as no-one came to take payment, we just left it on the bar as walked out. Perhaps it was nearing the end of a long day, but the staff just seemed weary. We're coming back next month with a group so will see then how things are. Summary: great food, but the service could have been a bit better.

Delicious and generous roast dinner, as always. But why no stuffing with the roast chicken? And did I detect garlic on the roast potatoes?? That's not good, but I do love this place. Good social distancing and cleanliness too.

First time here and was pleasantly suprised... It's quite loud but that's not a deterrent at all as it's just very lovely inside and the staff is absolutely fab. 2 things....1).food is hearty portions so bring appropriate belly for dessert 2) dessert menu was really good and varied and our choices were fab. The lady I went with is very fussy but loved the food she had even though she couldnt finish it special mention going to the deep fried brie she cant stop talking about. I had chicken for starter....2 big thigh pieces...(like I said hearty portions). My burger was good but my fries were little underdone....not a problem saves belly for dessert. ... We will definitely be coming back . Great little find good food excellent service. Very happy customer
