10/10! First time visiting - brought my parents here for some food and drinks. We loved everything! Food was delicious (big portions) and the staff were all super friendly. The bar manager even gave my dad a pint glass to take away, as he collects brewery glasses. Will definitely be visiting again!

My biggest advice: come with an empty stomach and make sure you book!
The carvery here was insane (in a good way XD). It was busy and we overheard the host say that it was fully booked all day. You get a choice between gammon, pork, beef and turkey. The veg is self serve.
The price is really affordable and all the staff are incredibly friendly - the atmosphere is really joyful. Shout out Dan who gave us a friendly and warm welcome - he said we will be back...I don't doubt him now.

Stopped off while on a narrowboat holiday. A short walk from the canal but well worth the trouble. Friendly staff , nothing too much trouble, with a lovely atmosphere. The menu was excellent and the food was delicious. Good helpings , so go hungry!! Would definitely recommend and would return.

Took my friend for her birthday at lunch time today, staff were friendly but very disappointed with food, fish over done and chips the same, been here a lot over the last couple of years and always been very very good, not sure if there is someone different in the kitchen?
Service was good but usually more talkative, very quiet atmosphere.
A really shame my friend had never been before and I was saying how good everything is and let down today.

Service was good but unfortunately the food didn't match up. I had the pork belly, which was overcooked and not that much of it. The mash and greens were nice and was very hot too, and plenty of to be fair. Sticky toffee pudding was lovely, though it did come with custard vs ice cream which I ordered. Still ate and was nice though.

Hi ! I was recently here with my two mates for some food, and boy, was I pleasantly surprised. I had a steak and guiness pie, and It was the best pie I have ever had ! Gravy delicious, meat nicely cooked and falling apart, nice pie crust on the top, just 10 out of 10 dish ^^ . Good portion as well if you are hungry. Staff was lovely and helpful, the atmosphere was great. They have few craft beers there, which is a big plus for me. Massive beer garden with a stage for music performance! Definitely coming back there at some point :D. All the best!

Young but friendly staff, service was wonderful, fast and helpful.
Food was delicious, not cheap but reasonable priced considering the portion sizes and quality of food. Absolutely delectable.
Plenty of tables inside, nice atmosphere large bar.
Outside covered area, stable wooden/metal benches, entertainment areas with heat lamps, can vape but not smoke under cover.
Grass garden with loads more wooden tables, umbrellas and ashtrays.
Some bigger wooden tables around front of building.
Quiz nights on Tuesday, some nights have events/entertainment booked, areas to rent out for events.
Definitely plan on another trip.
