Great pub, warm welcome great staff. Good selection of ales and fantastic food. From the main menu and Sunday roast, we sampled both. Dog friendly with biscuits and plenty of dog bowls for water . If you have not been then definitely put it on your list of places to try ...you won't be disappointed.

The Sunday dinner was terrible wasn't a proper cut of beef it was processedAnd the carrots weren't cooked very hardMash potatoes were powder mashAnd for £30+ pounds on top. You don't know any prices until you settle your balancePrawn cocktail £12+ £2 supplementsAll in all definitely will not go againAns I recommend no on else should goUnless you want terrible food at rip offPrices I will never recommend this place to anyone. Unless you are easily pleasedI would not let my dog eat there.

Very caring staff, felt very welcome as soon as I entered. Good, proper beers good pub style food. Not an extensive choice, but what we had was good. A plus for us, we could eat indoors with our dog and there were bowls and biscuits. Happy dog, happy owners that can relax and spend a little bit longer. Thank you!

Very nice, local village gastro pub.Lovely menu and still full of flavour and variety post COVID lockdown and with very workable social distancing measures in place.We had: patè, chicken strips and garlic ciabatta as starters. Sirloin steak, gammon, southern fried chicken burger and a prime beef burger as mains.All cooked superbly and tasted fantastic.

Driven past a few times but this was the first time in. Huge building with lots of tables to choose from all laid out perfectly. Light & airey with a great menu selection. Lady who sat us down & took our order was both professional & jovial. I had the regular fish & chips & Mrs P had the chicken & bacon bloomer sandwich with rocket & lettuce . Now I am 'Mr Fish n Chips' (I love it) so the bench mark was high!. Not disappointed at all as the fish was fresh, crispy, non greasy & the fillet was chunky & meaty) served with chunky chips, a wedge of lemon, tartare sauce & mushy peas...absolutely delish!!!. Mrs P commented on how much filling there was in hers & even ate it all (a rarity for her!). Being a big lad I could have done with a few more chips & Mushy Peas but it's not a massive issue. All washed down with a draught Peroni each this was a pleasant treat & great Value for Money. Definitely worth a visit. Next time we're up 'Rufford' way, we'll be in again.

First time visiting here. Just myself and my Dad who has dementia. It was nice and quiet on a Wednesday lunch time which suited us. Staff very helpful and friendly. Love the original features of the place. We had fish and chips and the burger. Possibly the best burger I've had. Definitely will be calling in here again. Would recommend. Quite reasonable too.

First impressions: cosy and popular place, this is why it was quite busy (we were there on a bank holiday Monday).First we just popped in for a drink but then decided to have dinner too, even if we have to wait for our table.The food was just the usual pub grub, the staff was above average.

Lots of parking is available, outdoor seating and children's play areas. Inside is nice with an old world feel, toilets immaculate. Service was very pleasant and polite but food took 45 minutes to arrive. Advised that all the tomatoes had been used so not available as described on menu. Steaks about £18-22, sides about £4. All of us enjoyed the food. Rump steak shown, no tomato, no side.
