It is said to be 13th century and so it may be but a lot of what you can see appears to be more modern, ersatz antique rather than the genuine thing. The pub has some pretensions to being a gastropub in that there is a separate restaurant abutting the only bar and another room that is more bar-like but still essentially a restaurant room. When we were there the bar had been colonised by a group of elderly, well-to-do locals that made getting bar service a little difficult. There were three real ales on offer and my Doom Bar was especially well kept and eminently drinkable. Prices were on the high side of average. The menu is not that extensive, roughly one choice of main meal for each type of meat and three vegetarian alternatives plus some lighter meals like ploughman's platters. It is said to be made up almost exclusively of locally sourced food which may be the case, and is laudable, but you wouldn't notice. Two of us had starters which were okay but nothing special - dill mayonaisse served with my smoked fish seemed to be remarkably dillless, my daughter's broccoli & stilton soup may have been homemade but was probably out of a carton - it looked and tasted no different to the Covent Garden Soup version she has at home. My starter and my main course had side salads, identical in each case, which struck me as being a little unimaginative. My daughter and I had chips, which were more or less white and bog-standard frozen. Other than these quibbles, everything was fine. Except for one thing, the price. While we did enjoy the meal it was no better or worse than we could have got elsewhere, without what amounted to a 50% mark up on average prices for pub food of similar quality elsewhere.

Perhaps this mass appeal is how it manages to be the only pub in the town to make it into the latest edition of the Good Beer Guide (which is how I found it).

Lovely location, slightly set back from the front with a great front garden facing south. Warm greeting showed us to our place - nice open fire. There were about 3-4 other couples on a very quiet day on the front. Limited but good beer options with Young's bitter and a pale ale. Limited but very good food options - we had a 'special' plaice with fish and chips plus a couple of beers and a wine. Quality of service was excellent and quick. We felt safe with COVID precautions. Really nice food with interesting vegetables to go with the plaice and homemade tartar sauce!! Cost for single course and drinks for 2 was £48, so by no means cheap, but good quality. Overall fully recommended as a quality food pub - worth the money..
