   Nice venue, cricket themed. Clean and tidy in the bar area (and toilets) with a big restaurant at the back. Three "real " ales on hand pulls, great to see. Several locals popped in during lunch also a good sign. Few diners when we visited and therefore quiet. Our opinions varied on the "piggy" pie - one unhappy that it seemed to be 80% sausage plus bacon and couldn't identify the supposed third variety of pork. I just thought it was delicious and didn't mind. The diner who had the burger, sent it back to be warmed up. Credit to the chef though, who gave her a complete fresh one. Prices were reasonable given the current cost of eating out. Overall, I would recommend this venue.

   Fantastic lunch with my sister who'd come up from Sussex for the day. Welcomed on arrival and allowed to chose a table. Prompt, polite service, food and drinks came very quickly. Excellent fish and chips, couldn't manage a pudding, but they all sounded nice. Would highly recommend this pub, they've got it so right, well done to all concerned, we'll be back.

   Lovely afternoon with friendly staff. Possibly the roast potatoes were a bit underdone but that didn’t affect the overall experience - we’ll be back!

   Very disappointing Googly pizza. Probably worst I ever had there in about four years!

    I accidentally booked in the bar so the ambience and service don't really apply but we had a disappointing visit yesterday compared to our amazing meal last month, both times for a roast dinner. Yrsterday my roast potatoes were clearly reheated and undercooked too, (not very brown and crispy). They were that unpleasant I had to leave them and the chicken was a leg with hardly any meat on. I'll think twice about returning so soon.
