Just had a fantastic Sunday lunch for seven including one junior, all food was served as requested, I am quite particular about the cooking of beef it was spot on!
I have also used this establishment for weeknight meals and it has been excellent, I will return.

Stopped off for a drink during a canal walk. 'Bar area' has no stools, only luxurious sofas where, presumably, diners wait for their tables. These being full, we had to sit in the overspill restaurant at dining tables. Only handpumps were Greene King IPA and Old Rosie cider. My wife had a coffee - when I queried the bill the girl had to go to the till to find out the prices - coffee £1.90 a cup and weak as dishwater. No bar tariff or gravity of drinks displayed.

One to avoid.

Went today 08/01/12 for sunday lunch
1st restraint is in two parts one conservatory which is nice as long as u want to eat with dogs in the same room

The other room long and thin dark and deserted.

The place is big enough to keep the dogs in bar or outside but not in the restaurant

Well the menu was small so we all selected a duck pate which the girl who served us was described as a strong smooth pate. Well it came in a ramekin looking at it looked like should be more like a potted pate but this topping was white more like lard.

The taste was so bland and even I who never has to add salt or pepper to any thing had to. After a couple of spreads it was so bad I gave up.

The main course was a mess unless u want your dinner in a soup of gravy that had been standing under a heat lamp so the edges went crusty.

The only part of the meal was the vegetables and really good I think from a Jamie recipe.

We complained and said the starter what cost 6.00 was horrid but they would not reduce price.

So I warn all don’t go there

This pub is nice and homely and there are good ales available. There are also presently various innovative attempts to encourage people to attend.

More negatively, we found the owner to be rude and unhelpful, unlike the bar staff who were pleasant.

Keeps a good pint, normally the local Putity range, and a guest (at the moment Hereford HPA) good atmosphere with a mixture of all characters, loads of events, excellent Sunday carvery.

Pleasant management and bar staff who know what there doing.

Dog and children friendly

A good stop off if your walking / boating the Grand Union canal
