Great beer, really good food on a busy matchday and welcoming to both home and away fans.
I’ve heard good things about the roast at The Beer Engine so it’s been on my list a while to try. There is only one option available, it’s one choice for non vegan too, this time it was a Wellington with a lentil filling. Good selection of veg including cauliflower cheese. No Yorkshire puddings for the vegan dinners. Menu is a little confusing and it would be better to have a vegan roast option, rather than the vegan and vegetarian being listed together. They are looking into this however. They are happy to serve half portions if the full portion is too much. My friend did this and was able to try one of the puddings, the sticky toffee, and she really enjoyed this. 3 1/2 stars ⭐️ Would like to see a clearer menu and it would be good to have at least another roast choice on the menu too. Car parking available next to the pub which is paid for.
THE BEER ENGINE DO NOT TAKE ALLERGIES OR DIETERY REQUIREMENTS SERIOUSLY. I booked in for 2 vegan Sunday roasts, my boyfriend requested they both be made vegan as I'm vegan with a dairy allergy. When I got home I had a severe allergic reaction. My eyes started swelling and my throat was red and itchy. I hadn't eaten anything else that day so some part of the roast must have had dairy in it. I was really upset as I was looking forward to supporting vegan options at a cosy independent, but I highly suspect their vegan roast was either not vegan or was contaminated with dairy. I contacted them on Instagram and got a pretty terse reply a week later, misspelling my name and reassuring me the dish was vegan. Be wary if you have an allergy or dietary requirement.
Great range of beers, wonderful tapas and a beer garden. Plenty of seating, much of it now undercover, even when it's really busy. And always a lovely atmosphere.
The beer garden is stunning! The small plates are well priced and are delicious. There's a good mix of meat, veggie, and vegan options. There's a great selection of cask and tap and wine too. All the staff are really lovely! Great for Sundays, after work drinks, or casual drinks/food.
