We were greeted with a smile and were immediately taken to our table in the area where the quiz was. Few things on the menu aren't available but that didn't matter. We picked fish and chips. This was a good choice, such big portions. Really lovely food and the service was quick and super friendly. Price per person: £10–20

Food came up quickly and was VERY VERY GOOD !Atmosphere was nice, several people in the bar at 6.30 in the evening, and they were pleasant and welcoming. Our little dog enjoyed a fuss. I speak as I find and the whole experience was very good. We have booked Sunday lunch I am so pleased that we have a nice new local. Thanks to Brian. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
