    I had the steak pie with mash and gravy and it was very tasty and satisfying, followed by Cookie Dough and icecream which I highly recommend. Service was quick and friendly.

    A very pleasant family Sunday lunch. The kids meals were great, really generous portions and the puddings totally polished off. We will certainly return.

    What a lovely place for a Sunday dinner. We were driving through to London and found this charming pub with a booking available for 8. They were very accommodating and welcomed us even at their last seating of the night. The food was fantastic, and service was superb.
