It been four months since the refurb and the new landlord ( Thierry ) and his crew moved in and this pub is now great !

We've been in there more times in the last 4 months for both meals and drinks that we'd been in there the past four YEARS. Great value and decent pub food (standard Greene King fare but nice ) with deals on food and drinks all week. Sunday lunch pretty decent , but only three veggie options.

Gets busy at peak times but they take table reservations. We just had a two course meal for FIVE , plus drinks for less than �60 ! Staff are friendly and efficient , but are sometimes caught out by just how popular its getting , with the chef having to leg it to the Spar to get more chips the other evening ! I suppose after just a few weeks , they are still working out the demand .

Good range of beers , ales and wines and if you are eating you can start a tab if you swipe your debit card.

Pub quiz on a Thurs with "Joe the Knowledge" is a great laugh and not too competitive. Function room and heated covered decking overlooking the MASSIVE beer garden ( roll on summer ! )

Now one of the better pubs in this town . Well worth a little mooch I would suggest.

After five years , we finally have a local !! happy days :o)

Popped in after the recent refurb and it looks great ! Really nicely done - very upmarket . Good ranges of beers and wines and a decent , great value menu . Good ,prompt service and friendly staff. Lived nearby for three years and until now never really rated this pub. Been in there more times in the past month that I have for the past three years .. Just hope it lasts ! Quiz nights Thursdays ?
