They advertise they open at midday (12pm) every day. We arrived at 11.50am and waited outside till 12.20pm and still not open. The saw the staff arrive at 11.55am and go inside. But they never opened the doors. We waited and knocked several times and never got food or service or even in the doors. Good job guys. So yeah, thanks for nothing. View all feedback.

Without a doubt, The Family is the best pub in town! From the staff and service to the food, drinks, music, and atmosphere, they excel in every aspect.

Hands down, best pub in town. Fox and Forbesey have it laid back, inclusive and make you really feel like family. Also, there are dogs.
