why oh why are they serving aunt bessies and frozen veg with their "traditional sunday roast" what ever happened to the home cooked food?sadly the management changed and also sadly the new managers have kept the same awful,rude and unprofessional staff.A pub to avoid now unless you live in the local ymca.

Since new management have taken over what has happened to the food menu? Portions have been reduced and the prices have increased. Looking at the menu veg is a thing of the past - it's chips or rice with everything. Not everyone wants a spicy shepherds pie, spicy lasagna or a choice of 3 different curries - bring back the traditional roast where we had a choice of two sometimes three! Who ever put together this menu certainly did not have customer satisfaction in mind it's more for the benefit of the kitchen staff - 'slap dash' - (e.g. home made coleslaw has now been replaced with the cheapest supermarket version). I would advise that this is a drink only pub - if you're after decent food go elsewhere! Having been a long standing regular I think the customer numbers have dropped significantly. It appears the patrons are now going elsewhere and who can blame them!
Bring back the previous management and save the sinking ship - I guess we were just spoilt with good traditional homemade food and excellent value for money.
I wonder what curry will be served on St Patrick's day!!

Excellent pub.

I only manage to get in there occasionally but locals and staff are very welcoming. Food is superb. Freshly cooked to order - no 'chain pub' huge menus with all microwaved crap in here.

If you are passing would highly recommend you pop in.

This is a pleasing traditional pub which has undergone a modern refurbishment, resulting in a local's pub that bears a strong resemblance to a wine bar.
Even so, there's still a friendly and welcoming atmosphere and a good pint of Pride to be had. Large screens show all the main sporting events and there's a small beer patio out near the car park.
An odd, but not unpleasant place to drink in.
