On a recent visit we ordered two local specialties Northumberland homemade sausages and pork sampler plate. The sausages were served on heaping mashed potatoes with plenty of nice gravy. The pork tenderloin came nicely displayed with black pudding, and deep-fried, breaded ball. Restaurant has full menu and dessert; waitstaff are quite attentive. Gingerbread cheesecake was delicious with outstanding eye appeal. Two suggestions: a few additional choices for wine by the glass, and, slightly larger two-top tables and comfortable chairs allowing the diner more leg room.

On arrival we were pointed at a table and when my wife asked about the location of the toilet the member of staff proceeded to give indistinguishable instructions whilst walking away from her.

I had the Vegetable stir fry for the main meal and for dessert, a deep dish apple and cherry pie. The Hobgoblin had run out on tap (much to my disappointment) so I had was drinking Black Sheep instead. For all the years I have been to this pub, I have never actually been in the beer garden so I can't really comment. A perfect stopping place for your jaunts out in the country.
