Lovely now its refurbished, not that I went to old one ever, so can't compare.
Haven't tried the food yet, but everything else seems in order.

Pretty nice environment to sit and have a drink, but in my opinion choice of lager and cider is poor.
Don't bother with the food either.... Frankly overpriced for what they are serving, you could go to a proper restaurant for the prices they are charging and at least then you'd get table service and wouldn't be expected to pick up your own cutlery and sauces from a table like a Wetherspoons.
We were a table of 10, they forgot 1 order and the rest were far from exemplary especially considering the price. The potted salmon salad turned out to be two turgid pots of oil with fishy shards floating around and a couple of sprigs of lettuce. If you are going to call something a salad then it should resemble it!
It's trying very hard to be a high end gastropub, but apart from the prices, failing miserably. The menu is unimaginative and badly executed. FIne for a quiet drink, but nothing else.
