The staff asked us if we had a booking for two adults and the two five year olds we were with. When we responded no, they said they couldn’t possibly take any more covers due to a technical issue. The pub was empty with only two tables reserved. When we were upset about this, they just said it wasn’t their fault and became quite aggressive. As we were leaving, one of the ladies behind the bar swearing at us in earshot of our children. When we got home, I kindly called the pub asking to speak to the manager. I was refused and told she already spoke to us. That is when I decided to share my experiences.

It is so easy to get in touch with people because of the diversity. The interior is quite old fashioned which I like. They show all kinds of Sports on 3 screens and have a beer garden at the back of the pub in the summer. Choices of Drinks is good. They have an artisan Pizza which is freshly made in front of you. Not at the back. You can watch the Chef creating and baking your own creation. The Pizza is great. It is probably the best on the Isle of Dogs and in a radius of a lot of miles. They also offer Sunday Roast, a pub quiz Sunday evenings which is a lot of fun. They also offer three rooms accommodation B&B based. Staff is always friendly, attentive and helpful. Great pub to watch Football, have a Pizza or just do random Pub Talk.
