I love visiting this place, if only for the puddings! There…read moreis a huge choice on the menu, including quite a bit for vegetarians and a seperate kids section which allows them to basically 'build' their own meal, great for fussy eaters. The service is good, and the prices are great. There is a garden with a deck and a childrens play area, and a nice big car park. We try to visit as often as we can and we have never once been able to finish everything on our plates. If you want a good value, relaxed family meal out, I can recommended this place.

Today's visit: hot sunny day, but only can have food in the small covered area rather than rest of garden. Go in to order - can't have a tab in the garden (?!?!) order wine, have to go find it, kids colouring menu - can only find on broken crayon, can't find salt, can't leave ketchup with us... Think I have given it enough chances... Such a shame ...

He seemed very drunk and I didn't have any idea what he was likely to do, but the landlady thought this was quite normal because she didn't bat an eyelid. Decided I didn't want to have a meal there, with my wife, so we left. I don't know if the landlady even noticed or cared. The man came outside and was shouting to somebody in the car park as we left. We won't be going back.
