First time we had visited and we will certainly be back. This is a super atmospheric pub lovingly restored after being derelict for a few years. The service from Rob was exceptionally good and all the staff were helpful and friendly. The mince and root veg pie was fabulous - my pork tasty but just a tad dry - the desserts were amazing! Can’t wait to return.

Lovely evening spent for Valentine's. Set menu which we were aware of. Welcome complimentary fizz which was lovely, the staff were attentive and the food was delicious. We struggled with our desserts! The ambience was great. But do bear in mind it is in the city, so look ahead for parking. There is a public car park within 2 mins walk but is only small car park for 10 vehicles.

Went on NYE, set menu where every course was a delight. Lovely warm greeting on arrival, taken to our table and the menu explained. Service was impeccable and always with a smile. Cannot recommend this place enough. We have been before and it has always given 💯, did wonder if they could keep those standards at such a busy time. And boy did they!! Just AMAZING, big thank you to the lovely Camille who served us with such a smile, warmth and made the whole experience even better. Happy New Year!

We had the five course New Year menu. The food was outstanding in presentation and taste. As a vegetarian, it was nice to have some variety. Our server, Will , was spot on and treated us like royalty. He was really friendly and nothing was too much trouble. It was our first visit, but we were so impressed, we will definitely return.

A mountain out of a molehill? Perhaps. Out of this world? Absolutely. Lost for words? Well, almost—but I’ll push a few out for this review. This wasn’t just a Sunday roast; it was the Sunday roast. The kind of meal that makes you question every roast dinner you’ve had before and wonder if they were all just poorly seasoned lies. The beef? Cooked to perfection. The potatoes? Crispy, golden, and quite possibly hand-delivered by the Roast Gods themselves. The Yorkshire pudding? So fluffy it could have floated off my plate if gravity hadn’t intervened. The staff? Attentive but not in a hovering-like-a-helicopter-parent way. The service? Slicker than a buttered banister. The atmosphere? So warm and welcoming that I half expected to be tucked in for a nap afterward. If you haven't been yet, go. If you have been, go again. And if you're still reading this instead of booking a table—sort your priorities out!
