What ChloeLouiseSmith doesn't like about The Sportsman:
The restaurant is nothing extraordinary, could use a fresh coat of paint in the function room. However, one does not expect a local pub to resemble Buckingham Palace. The function room is spacious, but if you plan on renting it, be sure to bring some decorations as it can be a bit dull. The drinks are affordable and the service is great, just like a typical English pub! View all feedback. What User likes about The Sportsman:
The staff at this restaurant are charming and accommodating, the food is delicious, and the function room is fantastic. The addition of the garden room outside is a nice touch, allowing diners to enjoy their meal on comfortable benches and cushions in the open air. View all feedback.
