The 3 story pub has lovely, warm, very British ambience. The Raven's food has a strong focus on hot pies, with a nice selection including Steak N Ale, Venison, Chicken, Beef N Cheese, Jackfruit, and Mushroom. My venison pie was delicious! The gamey meat was tender and succulent. I accidently ate into my wife's jackfruit pie...it was so good that I mistakenly thought it was my venison pie! £20 for any hot pie 'LOADED' which came with chips or Mash, plus heaps of roast vegetables and seasonal greens. It'll fill you up, and deliciously! Side Story: they accidently gave my wife a Chicken Pie instead of the Jackfruit Pie. The staff was so overwhelming apologetic about the error, and they refunded our ENTIRE bill! We said a small discount or just her pie being comped would've been more than fine, but they insisted on refunding the entire amount.

Great place for a drink after a long day. Comfy, homey, and slightly dicey. It just what we needed.read more

Despite the inauspicious location on an industrial end of a street, this place is great. Completely off the beaten track from the tourist circuit, locals fill the place and on the dome evening we were there, live on the patio as walkers and cyclists pass by. Service was slow because they were understaffed but those working were doing the best they could with good attitudes. I'd .you sit on the patio, you order at the bar. Food was better than usual pub fare while still offering the requisite fish and chips. I had the falafel burger and my friend that the fish and chips. I would highly recommend for atmosphere inside and out, especially when the weather ia good.

They have several local ales on tap and some "Real Ale" cask conditioned for a traditional experience. Sadly, there was no roast beef when we arrived so we'll have to wait for the classic Sunday roast. Steak and ale pie, and a butternut squash pie were good substitutes. This is a popular spot, especially for outdoor seating. We sat inside in a cozy dining room but if the weather is dry outdoors is a nice option.

Service was a confusing at first, but was just swell once we were seated...the leftside is a side is a traditional sit down restaurant service, the right side is a classic pub style where you order everything at the bar, and the expansive outside patio is self service as well, a completely taken over by smokers and vapers like every other European patio. £20 FISH & CHIPS! The fresh beer battered haddock was thick and crispy on the outside, and moist and tender on the inside, perfection!, The chips were pleasant enough, though crushed minted peas were just okay...maybe because they day prior I had some incredible mushy mint peas at another pub. Still a great plate overall! £20 SHORTCRUST PIES...wife went with the Chicken, Leek, and Herb...wonderfully rich and savory, with flavorful scent and warm, buttery pie crust. Lovely! Also came with seared greens, braised red cabbage, buttery mash potatoes, and rich decadent red wine gravy. £7.5 STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING...gooey, sweet, sticky, buttery, and fantastically wonderful!

At £22 for 3 courses it's pretty good value, we all preordered and prepaid for our meals. I had the parfait (pate) to start which came with thin crispy crackers and a sweet chutney, it was nice but there weren't enough crackers for the amount of parfait, having said that my plate was cleared. Main course- There was a hot service trolley so when we were called we went up and told the man what we had ordered, he ticked it off the list and the waitress then served the meat/ fish/ veggie option and you help your self to the trimmings including pigs in blankets, stuffing balls and veg. I had the beef bourguignon, which came with onion rings, the dish was nice it had a really tasty sauce but the meet was a little tough, the onion rings were cracking though! I had the cheese board for dessert, it was ok, came with 3 cheeses and a few crackers with onion chutney and celery. My friend chose the Christmas Eton mess and we were all surprised with the tiny portion, it was really nice but you expect more. There was one rather big error, one of my colleagues is vegan, his nut roast disappeared. Despite preordering and ticking off at the service trolley they managed to lose his nut roast. He waited and waited and at one point I believe it was suggested by staff that someone else must have had it by mistake (I think we'd notice if we had two mains, especially if one was nut roast and the waitress was serving the main dish) Any how after a rather lengthy wait he opted for a plate of veg instead, I'm not sure if he eventually got the nut roast, Not the end of the world but not such great value. On the whole the staff were friendly, theres parking out back and the pub itself is nicely decorated. But due to the very average food and the nut roast saga it's only a 3 from me!
