  • "Cosy wooden pub with huge comfy window seats and a relaxed atmosphere."

Cons:

  • "Only reason for not giving 5 stars is the taps in the toilet haven't been fixed in months. Just a dribble comes out from them 🀣"
  • "The table wasn't clean and we had to ask if someone could do wipe it which only happened when we managed to grab someone who came to wipe another table and even then it wasn't cleaned properly."
  • "However the 'nachos' were honestly the worst, most embarrassingly pathetic nachos I've ever had."
