The Golden Key, Snape

Pub has changed hands recently from previous (longish) term incumbent. As far as I can see any change from previous excellent regime has been for the better - difficult I know - but true. Food has certainly been upgraded - had line caught cod & chips - my two guests had a pheasant pie the like of which I have never seen before. Made to share for two, with a shin bone as a funnel, it could have served three - however they ate it all and the generous servings of veg that came with it. My cod was probably the best I have ever had - batter crisp, chips huge, obviously hand cut, and homemade tartare sauce, and even a fantastic salad garnish - the lemony dressing was out of this world - no dry tomato & cucumber here. Beer was good too - my pint of Old was decent and a nice temperature. Pub decorated well too - not much clutter - nice solid furniture
Food fantastic
Beer pretty reasonable
9/10 overall
