Have been here a few times now, the events are well organised and the food is good, but avoid shots unless money is no object...£4 for a Baby Guinness is taking the mick!
We had a lovely early Family Christmas at the C&S, we used the skittle alley and Kim and her team had set up the tables for us and made it very Christmasy. Great afternoon and the youngest member of the family won the skittles game and Kim came in and presented the cup. Good food, good beer, fantastic atmosphere and the welcome from Kim and her team was brilliant.
We stumbled upon this lovely little pub quite by accident, thanks to Google! I was looking for somewhere not far off the main road to meet a friend, and this came up. The description of a "thatched pub" sealed it for me, and oh! I'm so happy we came here! The village looks like something straight out of a tourism brochure: thatched roofs, narrow lanes, history everywhere you turn... it is just beautiful. And the pub itself: slanted ceilings, huge old fireplace, dark beams, even a friendly pub dog! Neil, the landlord was very welcoming, as was the young lady behind the bar (didn't catch her name). Oh, and a lovely, quiet beer garden out back. Would definitely recommend this pub, and I look forward to stopping here again on a future trip back to the UK!
What a wonderful pub! The owner was gracious enough to allow us to take photos! This pub was in the town that my Mayflower Descendent, Stephen Hopkins, was born and baptized! The beer was cold and the conversation wonderful! At the time, they were looking for a chef - otherwise, we would've eaten here. I'm sure it would be as wonderful as the rest!
Fantastic service from the team at the Crook and Shears. They catered for a large event with fresh, tasty food and the staff were really friendly and helpful. The skittles alley was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.
