It was our Anniversary and we had the chateaubriand and it was gorgeous, cooked to perfection, slightly more expensive but worth it. Very pretty village and would highly recommend m.

Only fair because we had the Yorkshire platter - this was everything fried. No vegetables at all just a potato fritter (may have been some cheese in it somewhere), two crab cakes - again not very tasty, a very small fish goujon in batter with a small portion of chips, and a deep fried scotch egg. None of it was great, and was served with four pots of mayo/chutney presumably to give it some flavour.

Took friends. The risotto was cold, watery and tasteless. The fish and chips were not to their normal standard. Don’t know what fish it was, but the texture was not nice. ,

Delicious food at a very reasonable price compared to similar local restaurants. 5 star service, superb menu. There's nothing to dislike here (and believe me, I'm picky)

We're regulars but haven't been able to visit for some time because we moved to York. It was truly lovely to return and, if anything, the quality of the food and service was better than ever. The menu seemed to be more accessible too with something for everyone and to suit every budget. We'll be back as soon as we can.

Very good food as per usual, fast and friendly service! However there was a very loud pre wedding party in smashing glasses and singing, thankfully our table was far enough away it didn’t effect us too much

Always a pleasure to visit this establishment - a blend of good food, accommodation (which I don't sample living locally) and atmospheric village pub. Good food, reasonably priced and service which is friendly, and attentive without being intrusive.
