Huge gastropub, excruciatingly slow service, portions small, food nice but overpriced, two ales on tap (Doom Bar and Tribute) and a decent selection of bottled beers.
As the previous poster said, this place is geared up to eating. My Tribute was middling and well overpriced.

This is not a pub - it's a restaurant. Hundreds of tables - or so it seemed.
Beer not a top priority, Doombar and a guest - at £3.84 a pint!. No cider at time of visit and no J2 0's.

Food is expensive. A small 6 ounce steak for £16, fillet is well over £20.
There is the option for smaller portions (not for steaks though) if money is an issue (how kind).
They do expect a tip when you settle the bill. Mine is; Reduce your prices and I'll tip the waitresses.

Do not ask for brown sauce, they don't have any (far too common).
Also, be careful of the stupid tall square pepper/salt pot.
The pepper is easy to operate but the salt? I gave it a slight twist and whoosh............half-a-ton on the plate.
Happens all the time the waitress informed me. Do something about it then!!!
A replacement meal was cooked for me without any fuss.

The good side was plenty of staff available and food served all day.

We went there to celebrate our son's 50th birthday, on a Friday. we were hugely disappointed by the whole experience. We were not met on arrival, we had to ask if they were ready for us to be seated, we then waited 15 mins then asked for a menu, we then waited 1 hour for our mains, which after 45mins we asked how long they would be, and were told they were the next ones out, we then sat and watched 6 other meals being brought out! The meals were ok, but only 2 of my guests were asked if they wanted veg or salad so the rest of us had none. We were a party of 9. Before ordering the dessert we asked if they would be long, we were told not, but they were and the sticky toffee puddings were barely luke warm. Overall a dreadful experience on what should have been a celebration. We will not be returning.The menu starter menu was far too pretentious, the mains ranged from burgers to steaks, service dreadful.

Lovely decor, well written and thought of menu and on my first visit it was lovely and i had no problems, couldnt have faulted it. Returned on sunday and even though staff were polite, the atmosphere was lovely and decor was still nice the food wasnt the same quality. Our food took literally minutes tobe delivered so i had barely had one bite into the bread and oils My roast lamb was fatty, i couldnt cut my potatoes, veg was basically raw, no one checked back to see if we were okay and i couldnt get anyonesattention for another drink as staff seemed panicked and running around and the desert we had was pretty pricey!! It may just have been a bad experience but it puts me off returning!! Sorry :(

I visited this pub with my mother for lunch on Sunday and have to say it has been decorated beautifully. Our table wasn't quite ready so we sat in the lounge (lovely rug on the floor) and had a drink. There were a lot of staff on duty and though they were friendly if I had any criticism they didn't really go that extra mile for us and we did feel a little rushed. The food was pleasant but a slight disappointment considering the decor. We were surprised we had to pay for bread with our soup and the desserts were quite pricey.
