| My local pub, so I'm probably biased, but having tried the others in the area, this is by far the best. Good atmosphere, very friendly bar-staff plus a chef in the kitchen who can work wonders, and certainly does care about food (The food is so fresh that it is not unusual to see unplucked pheasant, or freshly caught fish brought in, and put on the menu forthwith), plus the best belly pork I have ever tasted. The clientele is certainly civilised, and very eclectic (the regulars include a roofer, an opera singer, a carpenter, a film director, a ski instructor, a nurse, a magician, and more than one artist! The main occupation within the pub however, is conversation. Good food, good beer, good company - say no more! crossman - 10 Dec 2008 18:14 |
| Fab pub. Excellent 'real' food. We only had two sandwiches and I was bowled over. Someone in the kitchen really cares about food. Real hand carved ham from a joint and a fantastic cheddar on a really lovely artisan bread, plus a Haloumi sandwich that was also excellent. Nice local ales too. Staff are really friendly and accomodating as are the few local people who were at the bar when I was ordering. Never been there in my life before but it felt like home. There's a lovely little dining area at the back and the TV is mercifully in it's own little room too so not intrusive. My only minor criticism would be with the interior of the main bar, which is a bit dated and has a weird layout gives a feeling a bit like a bunker. Obscured glass at the lower windows and blinds half closed makes it feel a little oppressive as do solid 'closed' doors especially to the front. Clear glass and glazed doors would connect it with the splendid outside view and make it lighter and maybe a little more inviting as would returning the rest of the interior to nearer original period. hard to fault it otherwise though, a welcome surprise. jamie_fixit - 8 Dec 2007 16:49 |
| A good small traditional street corner pub. Nice beer ( good Harveys) and very cheerful staff, who dont get flustered when its busy. A bit cliquey and not much space. Park opposite, so take the kids and watch them from the patio. Dogs ok. flagship - 19 Aug 2007 12:13 |
| Quality beer and nice outdoor drinking area overlooking park. Easily the best pub in the locality. hrse12 - 31 Jul 2006 22:56 |
| Good real ales, and well kept. Nice fire in the grate and thankfully, a civilized clientele - unlike some other pubs in the area. anonymous - 1 Dec 2005 13:40 |
