Used this pub many times for a meal over last years. Always thought food was good quality and reasonable priced. But last visits seems to have gone down. Quite often certain items not available, and twice have ordered pie which has always been lovely, sadly not anymore, they have been heated in microwave and become rock hard and the filling burnt to a crisp. also hubbie had fish and chips, again poor quality. frozen...
