Booked for Sunday lunch. Amazing food with a varied menu for those who don’t like Sunday roasts. We do like a roast so opted for the pork which was fantastic! Very tasty with plenty of veg and ‘proper’ gravy. Good portion size so sadly couldn’t squeeze in a dessert but they looked good! Will definitely book again and definitely recommend !

Best pub meal I think I may ever had. Everything was flawless. We were in the area for a couple of days for Alton Towers, but this was our favourite part of the whole trip. Cannot recommend enough!

6 of us ate sunday roast, 4 had single plates, 2 had a sharing platter. Outstanding quality for all meals. Puddings were not as good, not much choice either, but the main meals were good enough to not need a pudding.

In town for one night, I made a reservation at 4pm for 6pm. Upon arrival, it was a busy Saturday evening at it wasn’t clear if they could honour my booking for a bar seat. As it was, they made a cosy place for me by the window. The service was excellent, with all staff being friendly and courteous. The food was excellent value for money (lamb burger, followed by plum and pistachio tart) as were for 2-for-1 cocktails. Throughly recommended!

Lovely welcoming fires and the staff were equally as warm. My partner complimented the chief on the food ( which she rarely does ) so that speaks for itself.
