What a great pub! Visited yesterday evening on the year's first comfortable sitting outside evening. Sadly, they have just discontinued the Gale's HSB but the Fuller's London Pride and Gale's (Fuller's) Spring Sprinter were in great shape. As well as fine beer and very friendly staff the food was good, too! Partner had grilled squid followed by the trout special, and I had the lentil and bacon soup followed by leg of rabbit stew. Delicious! And sitting outside was a bonus!

Oh, dear! The soul of this once heavenly village pub has now been torn out in the interest of making a quick buck on over-priced, under-sized meals. Fortunately the beer is still excellent, served just as bitter should be. (Timothy Taylor's Landlord and Dark Star when we visited.) But the food….! Magnifying glasses should be provided so you can find the food on the plate! My two tiny pieces of venison were miniscule, chewy and tasteless. My partner's burger was dry and tough.
This was our first visit since the "refurbishment". We did so love visiting this pub, but now…How have the mighty fallen!
I'm going to give this pub a decent rating because this is a beer website, and the beer was truly good. But we won't be eating here again!

What a great pub! 12 (local) real ale beers on. As I was driving I had to limit myself to a pint of Goacher's Fine Light Ale (3.7%) but there were several stronger beers available. Warm, sunny day so we ate outside. Superb menu at reasonable prices. Friendly, efficient service. Highly recommended
