We're not above a bit of flattery and we recently came across this amazing review on our Google page from a lovely visiting American.

If you enjoy the pub and our food or drinks, a Google or TripAdvisor review is a quick, easy and free thing to do that really helps to support your local, independent pub (and other businesses!)

🐾 In fact we're dog obsessed.

Your furry friends are welcome to join you for food and drinks in the bar and outside- we just ask that you don't take them into the restaurant area.

We have treats on the bar and water bowls dotted around, so if you're taking your dog for a walk this weekend, stop in for some great food or a quick drink on your way home. We love to see them!
