    Having been to this pub before for an 80th Birthday celebration and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, had the Sunday Lunch time menu. Booked again for another Birthday celebration Service was good however the meals were average and expensive for what we received. Would I go again I doubt it.

    We looked on the website for ideas from the Sunday menu we had a good idea what we were going to order but found they had taken most of the selections off the menu so we were left with just the Sunday dinner ! When I asked for the salmon the server said it's just the Sunday lunch now I did ask why they couldn't be bothered to update the website and they couldn't give a reason why it's a simple task to alter a website pressing a few buttons on a computers to inform and update a menu. So if you are going to this pub it might be an idea to see if they have bothered themselves to update the website and menu to avoid the disappointment
