The decor is traditional and cosy with a bar serving a good range of drinks. The menu has the normal gastro-pub type fare but the standard of this food is what brings us back time after time. It is all delicious and cooked properly, not just bunged in the microwave. The staff and owners are friendly and accommodating and we were particularly impressed when we had been let down one night and arrived late at the pub as a family party of 8, wanting a meal. Although officially they had stopped serving food, they got the chef to cook our meals. And it was to its usual high standard. Perfect!

The place really is a proper locals pub which can be intimidating to some, but there would never be a problem for anyone going in there. The pub has a terrific selection of real ales, usually 5 on draught at any one time, making out the town standout in that regard, and the main reason I give it 4 stars. It's not a place to go with the family, but for a quality pint or two it hits the spot.
