I had Cream Tea for around £6ish, it was good, not the greatest I've ever had. Another visit, I came on a Sunday afternoon which was busy. Again a cosy small pub inside. I liked that they had Sunday papers to read while I enjoy a drink. I will return to try their food next time.

I like it here. This strange little wonderland of Thai British pub with one section of beer…read moredrinking, singing chanting soccer watchers, another section with tables for dining in and all sort of authentic Asian food to order. I was totally blow away by their special steamed Sea Bassdish, it tasted exactly like my father in-law's home cooking! The appetizer sampler is the way to go if you are not sure what to order, or just want food with drinks. The portion is enough to feel satisfied for two person that's not too hungry. Be aware, all special dishes (more home cooking style) are on the sweeter side, so if you are one with savory preference, you may want to stay on the safe side with regular Thai curry dishes.

What a lovely pub! Popped in here on a sunny afternoon…read more The place is ye olde and has so many quirky features. The barman was a chatty friendly bloke and it would seem really enjoyed his job - which makes a difference. There is a good selection of drinks on sale here and they are happy to mix it up a bit if you ask for something "off-piste". It is very well looked after and everything is clean and tidy. You can hire this place out for occasions and the staff will work with you on what exactly you want. There is a patio area to the rear, which is lovely and quiet and you forget that you are near a main road. Good prices, fantastic service, I am definitely going to be making this one of my preferred local pubs to go to. If reviews did emojis, I'd probably insert a heart blowing kiss one here.

One section was like being in your own living room. The food was amazing and well presented on a breadboard. I had one of the best turkey, stuffing and bacon sandwich on sourdough bread ever! It was served with a side salad. I chose the local pilsner to drink. The only thing that I was disappointed with was the fact that I live near Toronto and won't be able to go there again. For those wondering, it's also gay friendly.

Saturday evening, my husband suggests finding a pub with a nice outside eating area to cheer me up…read moreas I'm recovering from foot surgery and can't get out much. Searched online and phoned this pub thinking we'd get the "sorry we're fully booked". Imagine my surprise when we were told that they have plenty of seating inside, may be a few outside tables but to be aware that there was a private function outside. Car park was full and we had to park on a verge, then navigate our way past the bar with jugs of Pimms (for the private party) and the bouncy castle (for the private party). The waitress found us a table at the back of the pub where some of the private party were but was away from the music and the noisy children. The waitress brought us the menus and asked if we'd like to order drinks and told us to order food at the bar. However, when she returned with our drinks, she took our food order. No doubt taking pity on the guy walking with sticks and the woman with her foot in a Barco boot! I haven't had a very big appetite since my foot surgery so opted for the halloumi and red pepper stack on ciabatta bread whilst my husband had the salmon. Have to say that the food was really nice! Felt that the waiting staff went out of their way to be helpful! Wasn't sure that I would want dessert but the passion fruit eton mess was tempting and husband was having nuttela gnocchi so, why not? Sometimes eton mess is really rich and sweet but can honestly say that the passion fruit eton mess had just the right mix of tart and sweetness, I highly recommend it! This pub might be in the middle of nowhere but the menu is good and the service excellent, and there's not many places where I've been able to say that!
