The Ball and Wicket, Heath End

I've lived in the area for six years and have only had the delights of this pub introduced to me in the last few months.

The atmosphere, orchestrated by a thoroughly decent and friendly landlord is so welcoming that I've found myself taking on more than just the vibrant weekend nights....and now even enjoy a few cheeky pints midweek, where the beer and banter are both first class.

Aside from all that, the reason I'm commenting here is because I want to recommend the new bistro chef. He's American, but once you get over the silly accent you can appreciate the fantastic food. I've had the Sunday lunch with all my (large) family and have eaten midweek and it is delicious and affordable. Proper American burger with a pint? Perfect.
