Cons:
"I enjoyed my starter but didn't enjoy my main meal of crayfish salad."
"The food wasn't worth the money, I had a flatbread and there were 3 tiny pieces of Halumi on it for £15.50."
"The cocktails are awful and for a pub that “specialises” in roasts we had to asks 3 times and waited a good 15 minutes for some gravy, which was basically brown water."
"Main course could have been hotter and crackling on pork was sadly inedible."
"Disappointed of the home made vegetarian kebab....a bad and expensive joke, with raw onion in it."
"The roast potatoes and veg seemed to have been reheated in the microwave as they were soggy."
"Food inedible kebab was meatballs in sauce.warmed in a microwave."
Ambiance and Decor
Pros:
"The pub was really nice and very clean."

"Decorated for Autumn warm and cosy atmosphere."
Cons:
"But as someone who needs to use the disabled toilet, I was unable to as the toilet seat was missing."
"I felt that we had been set a table up in. I can only describe as the walkway the table was probably not even big enough to fit on two dinner plates and two glasses of drinks."
"So recently visited here, I did request a table near the fire or in a booth, neither were made for us even though both were available."
"Although the table was efficiently close to kitchen and toilets it was close to the toilets..."
"We were very cold and the staff were more interested in chatting to someone they knew from the baby shower than making sure we were ok."
"Only place to sit was in the outside shed which I'm sorry to say had lots of food on the floor."
"However, we were seated at a table in an area where all the heaters were broken, until we requested to move."
Value for Money
Pros:
"The prices are around today's average slightly to the cheaper side."
"We used the 30% off mains offer which was an added bonus."
"Good choice of food available from the menu and at sensible prices."
"Great value for money and cooked to perfection."
"Look out for vouchers on the pubs own website (current offer 30% off all mains)."
"Prices of the food is Competitive."
"We took advantage of the 30% off offer!"
Cons:
"The food was quite basic and in my opinion it was overpriced."
"Very poor food and shocking presentation for £20..."
"Whilst i appreciate the cost of living has risen dramatically how can you justify reducing portion sizes and price increase."
"Every meal received has been over priced for both quality and miserly quantity received."
"Other than that i think the beer is overpriced. 6.35 for Neck oil. 6.20 for Erdinger is way too much."
"Ordered a 'feel good' salad thar was £10 plus £4 for additional chicken. The dish was absolutely not worth £14!"
"Pie and mash for £15 and beef dinner £15! Family of four with drinks would be £80+!"
