Description

Nestled in the heart of town, this pub showcases a blend of family-friendly vibes and a welcoming atmosphere, complemented by a cozy dog-friendly beer garden. Diners appreciate the attentive staff, a diverse menu featuring decent meals at reasonable prices, and a dedicated gluten-free preparation area which particularly delights those with dietary restrictions. However, some patrons express disappointment over missed meal components and poor customer service experiences, casting shadows on an otherwise promising outing. Overall, while there are highlights and a committed local following, improvements in service and ambiance could elevate the dining experience.

Fantastic pub, especially for those with Coeliac disease. They have a dedicated gluten free preparation area in their kitchen. My wife was able to have her first chicken parma at a pub in her lifetime, it was delicious and no more expensive than a normal one. We will definitely return to try more gf dishes. Great service, location and dog friendly beer garden too.

Great service, they went above and beyond. I'll definitely be coming by again. Also $12 small serve Parma is great value. I'm a big guy and I struggled to finish it.
