This family-run, food-led Free House consists of two dining areas; a large split-level dining area which leads off to a smaller, more intimate dining area at the side.
Focusing on quality ingredients, cooked to perfection, The Waggon Inn caters for diners of all ages and is very popular with diners returning to the Pub on a very regular basis.
To the rear of the main bar is a smaller public bar with a pool table and darts board to the rear. The Waggon Inn is one of the few pubs that cater to the sherry drinker by offering cask-matured draught sherry – we even have LCL Lager for the lager lover who is concerned about his figure! LCL is a Premium Pils lager and is lower in sugar than standard lagers (originially LCL was short for Low Carbohydrate Lager.
And if you are interested in Railway history the preserved Bowes rope-hauled railway runs to the rear. For more information, visit our History section on this site.
And don’t forget about our Pub ghost!

This is one of our favourite places to treat ourselves after work. We love the atmosphere and the food is great.
Went for a family meal. Staff were brilliant and made us very welcome. We all had various starters and mains and were all in agreement the food was delicious and portion sizes were great, well worth it. Would recommend.
I really enjoyed our experience in the Wagon and definitely will be back. Gave the atmosphere 4 stars because it was early evening when we were there and a true indication can't be assessed until the place is full. Really attentive and friendly staff . Food is fresh and cooked to order. Thank you and well done Wagon Inn.
Good meal although one 2 of the meals were served cold (mainly veg), they heated back up which isnt ideal but both said tasted good still. Nice atmosphere, good menu.
Absolutely tip top. After leaving a nearby establishment due to expensive lunch menu and absolutely freezing cold room, we came her for more than a warm welcome. Warm and friendly. Delicious hot and fresh food. Amazing steak and onion rings. Great burger and sharing platter. We will return.
