What Kevin R likes about The Owls Nest:
Great pub. A freehouse with different beers each week. Great home cooked menu, simple choices, with options for vegetarians and vegans. You are always made to feel welcome and never rushed… They have music nights on most weds as well. If you want to experience a good ‘ole British pub, this is the place to come.. View all feedback.
