Nice pub visit. Welcoming staff, comfy seating. Can recommend.
I hosted my daughters baptism gathering at the pub and i just wanted to say a massive thank you! Antoinette and family were so helpful going above and beyond and the space and service was exceptional 👏 The private area came with so much space including bouncy castle for the children, inside and outside seating area for adults and the drink service was very efficient. Really made the day for us , so a big big thank you to you your family & the staff ! Would return in the future and would recommend hiring this venue to others x
Such a lovely freindly place .eill be going back.
Dirty, grubby, smelly, the glass looked like it was from the 80s. Chilly reception from the bar staff, just stared at us when we walked in. Couldn't get out of there quick enough
Used to eat and drink here before new owners the previous owner would be ashamed of the state of the place if I could post pictures of the disgusting state of the ladies loos I would. Don't think the toilets have been cleaned since before old owner, tap is not working properly the all step is broken and there is an inch of dust everywhere wall need wiping. Glad they don't do food anymore would hate to think what the kitchen would be like.😕
