I was in here yesterday with my Brothers and Farther in Law On a regular Pub Crawl of the area. As already said the place looks more like a licenced café than a pub. Its not very cosy or welcoming and its badly laid out nearly every table was set for food making it feel even more like a café. The bare wood floor and stripped out interior Don't make it feel any better. I found the staff very offish and unwelcoming added to the fact the few other customer that were in all sat around the bar making it difficult too get severed and were giving you evil eyes just for making them move. Between the four of us we tried all the Ales on Tap plus the Old Rosie Cider which were OK but there was nothing outstanding. I don't think we will be putting this on our regular Pub Crawl as there are much better Pubs nearby

I'm afraid the experience of the last reviewer is becoming all too common. This is no longer a pub, it is a restaurant. If you have to book to be allowed in on a Sunday that's a pity. There is still the Six Bells and White Lion that are hopefully more welcoming! Surely a first come first served policy would be better, if the food's good it would always fill up.

Tried to pop in for Sunday Lunch, only to be told that they can't allow walk ins.....as they are booked up...not going to spend my hard earned in here with that sort of attitude; I said we'd go somewhere else and the answer was ok...not very welcoming, bad service, would not recommend, stay clear and avoid.

Yes, they've got beer. So far only two (Youngs bitter and Bombardier, both very good quality), but there are plans to have ales from microbreweries too. Watch this space.

Yes, but any beer??? I go to a pub for a pint of bitter. I can get the rest at home.
I note that the new web site offers detail of their menu (item 1: carrot & coriander soup) but the drinks page is "coming soon". Guess the direction of this one! Hope I'm wrong but...
