| A Lovely pub, Great beers, Green King, Olde Trip and London Glory. A very enticing menu, food very tasty and good portions too. Staff very friendly and attentive. Beautiful thatched pub in a lovely village. Only fault is that food is a little pricey. nutbrown_ale - 16 Jul 2012 23:35 |
| Two room village pub that seemed popular for diners and walkers. It's a Greene King pub and IPA, Old Speckled Hen, Olde Trip & London Glory were all on. The latter was being dispensed by gravity. There is limited seating. But this isn't a bad pub. blue_scrumpy - 1 Mar 2012 18:17 |
| A nice pub but the food was overpriced and I was dissapointed with the quality of the beer. country2010 - 23 Nov 2009 17:15 |
| I'm afraid I only gave this place 7/10, but would probably have been higher if I'd stayed to eat. A good little pub in a pretty little village, and the menu certainly looked very tempting. This is the village where Steve Marriott died in a house fire, and the pub still collects for the fire brigade. There are lots of thatched cottages in the village. rah - 2 Jun 2005 16:24 |
| Lovely place, top quality Speckled Hen, friendly, but disappointed by the food. Small portion of cod, indifferent chips and veg., �9+ Dave T - 27 Jul 2004 17:19 |
