Came for lunch. First time I've ever been in this pub and it was lovely. The landlord was very friendly and helpful and the beer was excellent. Really good pub.

Pub seemed quite quiet when we arrived at 1pm on a Sunday. It quickly filled up with diners for the carvery and we we lucky to get a small table for two amongst the sofas.

Given the number of beers and the age of the punters I thought this to be in excellent condition.

In good condition but I found this rather bland and shallow. Very few flavours coming through.
