What visitors say
Deep fried chicken wing starter would not recommend. Fried till all the chicken gone. Steak was really well cooked fresh. Chips were a bit dry but not the worst. Other than the chicken wings food quite nice. Loads of space to either eat or just hang out and have a pint. Staff friendly promoting a nice welcoming atmosphere. Spacious if visiting with family.

Entering the pub, it was cold. With it being minus temperature outside, it wasn't very warm inside. The food was okay. The burgers were good flame grilled. The smothered platter was nice. Some meats little on the small side. Steak cooked good. The chips were good, as was the fish and chips meal. The kids have a good variety of options, from little to big kids menus. Indoor play area attached for the kids. Overall, decent chain pub grub. I would go back again.

Visited for my granddaughters birthday (15/08). Sat in the children's play area, good atmosphere but music was very loud. Food was ordered, quite a lot of it. Unfortunately it wasn't worth the wait. My daughter had the mixed grill, but only a 4oz steak not 8 like she ordered. Took so long for them to check and refund that her meal was cold, no offer to reheat or replace. Food was greasy and warm. Hairs on cutlery and plate, dry chicken, chipped crockery, disgusting egg!!! We complained to the manageress and she said that we needed to complain to head office. Staff were very un helpful. We all suffered upset stomachs for next few days. My daughter ended up with food poisoning resulting in a very unpleasant trip to A&E. (The staff at the hospital need a medal) Definitely spoiled our day out!!! I can honestly say we will not be back!

We had the unlimited cooked breakfast… sadly the cereal was the best thing on offer. We didn’t enjoy any of the cooked offerings other than the hash browns. I have never seen such unappetising scrambled eggs. Very disappointing.
