Great pub, good vibes.
UPDATE August 2023. Such a shame. This pub is closed again after issues with the lease agreement between landlord and tenant. After a renovation and and enthusiastic land lady injecting some life and soul into the pub , we are once again closed!!! PREVIOUSLY. This pub has been transformed from a very run down pub to a very pleasant and friendly place to come and drink .The landlady has invested in the essentials to turn this place around. The next step is introducing food back , which I look forward to. The Halloween night was great with music in the back and we thoroughly enjoyed the musicians playing a few weeks ago. A great asset right on our doorstep. It just needs us all to support it .
To think this used to be one of my locals, young lady behind the bar was pleasant and polite, I couldn't stop noticing the bright LED lights around bar area? , what used to be the snug seams to have gone . The lounge area now seems to be a cross between lounge and bar , it's lost that village cosy open fire appeal Nothing really matches, It clearly needs an injection of funding to make the lounge area more attractive for new clientele. Outside looks the same perfect for sunny days .
We dined there to celebrate one of our friend's birthday. Apart from the pub, they have a restaurant section too. Very simple looking but we were the only party at that time and that was all we needed. As they noticed bday party we got complimentary prosecco which was a very nice gesture. The food was good, portions were ok. The only letdown was the heating, it was very cold. Clearly, the restaurant section is not used often and heaters were turned off. It didn't get any warmer with time and we left earlier than expected.
Booked as a venue for a wake. Emma and team did an amazing job. Couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating with special diets - there was plenty of food and it was all really tasty. So welcoming and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this pub.
