We have family in the village, but hadn't been to visit since mid 2017, so it was great to go to Quiz night at the pub and enjoy a pre-Christmas drink. Always busy, always quirky decor, great service and nice fellow patrons.
First visit for us and some friends for a very long time and we were not disappointed. Quiz night on Saturday and the place was almost full but the landlady was very accommodating in getting us a table. The beers are really good, recommend the Raby Ale, and there are plenty of others to choose. The decor is clearly a lifetime collection of all sorts which add to the atmosphere. We will definitely return. The quiz was excellent by the way, great questions and well managed.
Went with some friends for an evening meal. There was some issue about us getting a table although the dining area was almost empty. We were given a table in the end and the food was good. There were NO vegetarian options on the blackboard and we had to ask and they made a pasta dish. I hate having to ask for vegetarian meals as it makes you feel awkward and a ‘special case’. A good range of beers and cask ales. Decor a bit overwhelming, every space filled with stuff. I would hesitate to go back here due to the initial resistance to our wanting to eat even though it was only 6:30pm and they advertise food service until 8pm.
Lovely home made chips and rhubarb crumble delicious however vegetarian lasagna bit bland
