If I could give no stars I would! One of the worst food and service I've ever experienced, we were made pay first, take our own cutlery, ask if we really were going to order food. We had to pay first, myself and my friend ordered a portion of chicken wings each, and two chips, firstly the waitress brings our chicken wings in one bowl, and says that's the two portions, we asked for another plate and she wouldn't get IT, I really think it's ridiculous to serve two different orders in the same bowl. chicken was soggy and flavourless, chips came out ten minutes later. My other friend ordered a mac and cheese and it was like one from packet, you just add water, (AVOID THE FOOD HERE)

Sat upstairs for some food. Food arrived after 30 minutes, the lettuce was black on the burger and the chips were a miserable portion. Now for the real reason of this review… not long after we sat down we were greeted by a very unpleasant guest… A MOUSE. Running around the floor under our feet when we were trying to enjoy a few pints and decent food.. poor bartender was put in a awful state of trying to explain away the mouse along with mistakes made by the kitchen.

Chill ambience! We stopped here for a quick beer and cider. It was really good mixed with the nice ambience.

A fantastic Sam Smith pub. The interior feels as though you're in a gorgeous paneled time warp downstairs and the upstairs dining area is like a country hotel. Open fires add to the character. With amazing value beers and decent food you can't go wrong. The great staff were just the icing on the cake. With so many pubs competing in the area these guys are doing something right. Defo drop in for a pint to break up your shopping or sightseeing or grab a bite for lunch.
