Local pub that I haven't revisited for 27 years as the last time I went in it was a classic bay'nt be welcome here experience. Pleased to report it has definitely changed for the better. I had heard several promising reports so decided to go for lunch with a friend. We were greeted very cheerily and asked if we had a reservation. This really surprised me as it was a rather wet Wednesday ( and at this point we were the only potential customers) I said no and we were shown to a table that would be needed at 2pm, which was fine. At this point I did think that some heating would be good because it was very chilly. However within about 20 minutes the place was heaving , and considerably warmer, with all those bodies. The menu is good very much something for everyone. Classics like fish and chips, steak and ale pie and gammon as well as a curry either veggie or with chicken. This is what my friend had. She said it was really tasty, not too hot but really well spiced. It came with naan bread and she chose half chips half rice. It was quite a playful. I had the goats cheese tart with red onion chutney, sweet potato fries and a lettuce, tomato and pine nut salad. This consisted of a very crisp pastry base with chutney in the bottom and the most enormous slab of chevre cheese that had probably been grilled. It was lovely and I love goats cheese but I did feel it was a quite overwhelming amount. The salad acted as a nice foil to the richness and there were a lot of pinenuts . In summary good service, busy although it was school Easter holidays I suppose, good generous portions of food a reasonably wide ranging menu. Good friendly service and very good coffee. With a glass of Malbec and a coke the bill was 45. Would go again but next time I will book and go a little later to allow the room to warm up
