Uninspring Greene King food-house, lots of small areas up and down steps, all very random. Loud shouty clientele, big screens everywhere. Huge outdoor decking area at the front of the pub - bet the locals love that late of a night. Complete contrast to the Black Horse across the road, but yet similar in a lot of ways.Just as unappealing.
I know the comment about being a bland gastro-pub was made two years ago, but it's more Hungry Horse than it could ever be described as a gastropub...

Popped in here the other week as I was visiting friends around the corner. Really friendly barman who was slowly getting his way around the till but explained that he was new and a little slow - but got the round of six drinks perfect every time. Decking outside looked inviting if it wasn't for the downpour. Inside was very pleasant and the landlady seems to be running the pub very well.

Typical Greene King ales and the odd promotion on spirits. A tad expensive but was more than happy to stay longer than I had originally planned. Food was very good and actually quite reasonable - we had planned to go to a restaurant but were enjoying the pub too much!

Only problem was that the gents toilet was a little in disrepair, a problem that the landlady and barman apologised for. I guess that it will be fixed up soon.

I was told that there is a quiz night and a poker night during the week. I will definitely visit my friends more often now that I know they have a decent little pub on the doorstep!

Cheers!

Tables Dirty, and a very smokey pub, even in the non-smoking area. Food is reasonable out of a packet stuff and is cheap, certainly not a Gastro pub as mentioned before. Can't hear yourself think sometimes as normally 4 TV's on each on a different channel and music playing as well. Not really recommended if you fancy a pint try the Blackhorse over the road

Lost a lot of character of the last 5 years or so. Now more of a family restaurant that a proper pub, nothing either going for it or against it. Another bland gastro pub.

Visited but didnt spend much time there as the bar was too smokey and loud. Couldnt hold a decent conversation and had to shout to be heard.
Nothing special about bar menu, so we didnt eat there.
