Two of us arranged to meet up for lunch in here before going to visit a friend who is now in residential care. This was my first visit here and I found the place to be very busy and welcoming, but I thought that a poorly supervised toddler crawling about between tables could have created a potential trip hazard.

Popped in whilst waiting for the train. Disappointed in the range of beers but I guess it's only a Wednesday.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|

A late lunch taken here. I’m not pointing any fingers, but I then experienced 48 hours of upset stomach. No doubt just a coincidence.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Everards (see entries against Joule's & Robinsons whilst its new brewery was being built) - Terrapin Rye | 5.50 | | A very nice beer. Rye tastes not overpowering. Amber-coloured. Lingering bitterness. |

Sunday lunchtime and reasonably busy. I like the front half of the pub and even the food serving area at the back with a bit of an open kitchen.

Evening. Almost everyone seemed to be dining.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prescott - Track Record | 4.40 | | Uninspiring English bitter but ruined by fish smells from diners. Oh if only caffs for food and pubs for beer |
