After a long wait for our very average meals, two of our party order the Eton Mess. They were tiny when they arrived, despite costing £6.25 each. But by far the worst bit for me was the fact that it wasn 't just warm though should definitely have been cold) it was really hot in places. It was literally defrosted frozen fruit and squirty cream, which immediately dissolved. No merengue pieces whatsoever! What a poor effort! Mentioned it when paying the bill and was simply told it will be passed on .

Lovely food and the staff were excellent. Parking: Nice location. Price per person: £30–40 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free parking lot

Brilliant food and a lovely environment. The way they have decorated for Christmas is elegant and lovely. Kid-friendliness: Our daughter (5) was made to feel welcome and there was no problem with us exploring the whole pub to find all the Christmas decs.
