First time visit to this local pub / restaurant and we felt lucky getting a table as we only booked it today. . Beautiful old building and friendly greeting upon arrival. Shown to our table in the busy restaurant and service was very good. Friendly staff and fantastic food. Everything appeared to be homemade which was really lovely. This place delivered! Only negative was we were seated upstairs near the corridor where the door is so it was cold. Apart from that it was excellent and we will return.
