a. h.

Lovely place to eat chat and be merry lovely family run pub with delicious food too. Lots of space two great beer gardens too. If your looking to gave a nice meal and nice vibe then get to the horse and jockey soon.....

O. D.

Nice clean place.. wasn't a great experience food wise tbh.. starters and steak sandwich was great.. fish was tastless and chicken burger burned...don't think we'd go back though sorry.. I'd wouldn't say don't try it though... we might of just caught them on a bad day...

C.

The atmosphere in this place has really changed over the last few months. It is a fab place to eat, and staff are very friendly. Food is well presented and delicious and the prices are very reasonable.

K. F.

We had a lovely meal here recently. Never been before even though very close to us. Ribeye steak and they served the bang bang chicken and chips as a main. The chips were to die do, triple cooked I think, we could have eaten a barrel load they were so good. Steak was cooked well, medium rare and had lots of flavour, bang bang chicken was lovely. Great cocktail selection and also a great non alcoholic selection too, great as we like the choice to not have alcohol but still enjoy a beer or cocktail. Staff were perfectly pleasant, overall good experience and would return

r. P.

Nice pub good food great biers

A.

Great food but staff really do need some training. Three times on Saturday I saw them deliver a bottled soft drink to a table and not include a glass. And very slow to acknowledge you, its like customers are totally invisible.

a. (.

Lovely staff friendly to talk too, my partner nocked the her drink off the bar and they just cleaned it up and was happy to help her with a smile and the barmaid replace her drink for here free off charge and was refusing me to pay even that it was my partners fault, Staff you have is well worth keeping I would be proud to have staff like that

S. C.

Fantastic food, the homemade pie was beautiful and the chips wow 🤩 great friendly staff, very accommodating. Stayed over in the Moho in car park,very secure and quiet. Will definitely return. Highly recommended.

W. L.

Didn't like this place much, slow service on arrival, no drinks order taken. Only two drinks ordered and they needed to come back and check what they were. The roast dinner arrived warm, not hot and needed sending back, both of us ate half the meal because it just wasn't very nice. When asked how everything was, advised of the issues and they apologised, when bill was presented no effort made to adjust by way of goodwill gesture until prompted and was advised, best I can do is take 1 of your drinks off, which they did.

E. L.

Food was lovely although service wasn't great. We spent a good chunk of our allocated 2 hour slot waiting for the waitresses who were stood talking at the bar. Had to flag them down to order food and drinks. It's a lovely venue with a great menu. Just a shame on the service

b. c.

Been 3 times now since restrictions ended, lovely home cooked food a big range of veg nice clean surroundings and the staff are all young and friendly, can't do enough for you. Book for Sundays as it gets pretty busy.. Little doggy there this week so being a dog friendly pub is a bonus

J. B.

Went to the pub Saturday we booked table 4. What a change since last visit. Staff excellent. Soon as we give are name in young girl asked any alergys. All pubs should ask. Meal drinks were fantastic.

C. M.

We rang last minute and the manager sue booked us in, the food was lovely the staff were all very polite with great service and we will definatley be going again, sue the manager is doing a great job with the rest of her family if I could give 6 stars I would.

c. f.

Great place, New owners and its got even better, salt and pepper box is a must plus cant get it for take out.

M. G.

we were sat in a lovely outdoor booth, menus pretty good and the food was lovely

S. B.

My wife and i arrived Sunday afternoon 12th Dec without a reservation to try to get a table for sunday lunch. We were greeted by amazingly helpful and bright young staff who made us very welcome and were treated to one of the very best sunday roasts i have ever enjoyed at a restaurant. Highly Recommend

r. n.

Good service good food but lack of draught lagers. Only had 1 on draught. Bottles as well but not to my liking. Overall the food was good but drinks were a let down. Kids drinks too expensive also.

C. H.

Had a meal here on Thursday lunchtime. Chicken with mushroom sauce, and my partner had pork, both came with chips. The food was excellent, couldn't fault it. Good value, great service. Thank you so much

C. T.

Lovely food. Well taken care of by staff.

A. H.

Love the new look to the outside of our local 😍 food still fantastic and service is friendly and welcoming

D. L.

Went for our tea as its local. At first no one else in the food area till about 6.30. But that means we get served very quickly. We both had mixed grill and 2 drinks price came to just under 60 pounds. Not the cheapest but was ok. Since first visiting we have been many times. The small plates menu ( tapas) has been very nice, again still not cheap but tasty.

J. B.

Had a meal here with my wife, thought it was a bit bland. The pub it's self was good.

p. f.

Had the most amazing tapas lunch today with my daughter n grandson, so very tasty and delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection and I would say the best tapas I've had. Thank you to the chef for your amazing cooking skills and to all the staff for being so friendly and helpful....lovely experience all round and would highly recommend.

J. M.

First time there. Really lovely place. Very friendly staff. Went for early Saturday eve drinks with family. Food looked lovely. Ordered house chips. Wasn't disappointed.

a. e.

Nice meals decent price, The fish I especially liked. Surroundings are Nice and the staff were very pleasant on are visit would go again

M. C.

Nice pub, nice area. Food prices are aiming at a level that the food itself isn't quite attaining though was still tasty. Service a little slow and required a couple of prompts. That being said, the average age of staff looks to be very young and as such they are actually doing well. Overall a decent experience and I imagine will only get better as time goes on. (Covid specific considerations: lots of space for people and sanitising of spaces between sittings)

A. P.

Another lovely Sunday roast , Hard finding somewhere that does a good roast but this place never fails , meat , veg and roasties spot on , excellent service too from very polite and friendly staff nothing was too much trouble

B. M.

Spotlessly clean. Plenty of friendly staff . Food was delicious. Portions were huge, maybe consider smaller portions so you could fit in a pudding.

I. C.

Friendly place, very good food. Not formal but enjoyable with helpful staff. Nice place for a family meal.

D.

Excellent food and amazing staff only criticism is hot drinks in glasses with no handles was very hard to drink my hot choc apart from that excellent 😀 👌 👍 xxxx

N. N.

Excellent food and service. Can't wait for the garden to open and pizza oven to be back on.

S. P.

Food was lovely my 1st visit would have liked to see something other than chips

N. G.

Gorgeous goat cheese tart. Always friendly staff

m. h.

first time visitor, lovely place plenty of seating options inside and out. took 50 mins from placing the order to getting our meals and they wernt busy when the order was taken, that said gave us time to chat and can confirm the food was excellent and worth the wait, would definatly revisit.

L. S.

Incredible experience all round! Beautiful premises, friendly & helpful staff, quick service, & amazing food well worth 2x the price - even the presentation of the food resembles a Michelin star restaurant, the chef/s are clearly very talented and care a lot about the quality of the food they serve. Very very impressed & will absolutely be returning 🤩

B. S.

Had Christmas Dinner there yesterday. Food was out of this world, every course was soooooo tasty. Nothing was too much trouble. Not rushed at all. Service was brilliant, very polite staff. Definately book for next year.

K. H.

Not really impressed! Food wasn't that nice. Probably wouldn't go back.

I. V.

Ordered the take away roast online due to current restrictions, picked up 30 minutes later at the door! Food as ever great, nice and hot and big portions..... couldn't be easier 👍 support your local businesses

P. U.

Nice pub, very very attentive staff, salt and pepper chicken burger wasn't very salt and peppery, more like bland chicken pieces. Will try again though as the outdoor eating area is beautiful.

M. M.

Absolutely perfect food, staff and venue.

Went for father's Day lunch today. Food was delicious, staff were lovely. Definitely be going back again.

L. M.

Great food and friendly staff. Service was a little slow but think that was because it was reopening weekend. Would visit again.

P. F.

Sadly my favourite eating venue failed miserably, staff are not trained and out of control, my beer was sent back (flat) we asked for all meals to come out together, I got my meal 15 minutes after the others in my company had started eating, all cutlery came rolled together in 2 napkins, I asked for more napkins, this request was forgotten, I got my steak and it was very good but I had to ask for a steak knife and fork, and more napkins, we asked for more drinks ,, they didn't arrive, One of our lamb meals was below standard and tough, we asked for the bill,,,,it came with the the drinks on it that we hadn't had,, Sadly it looks like poor quality un trained staff and poor management combination resulting in a disappointing family event for us

D. B.

Great place to eat and drink staff are friendly

D. A.

I gave only 3 stars because although the food was good the staff were painting the walls at the other side of the room and it was a bit pricey for pub grub without the painting i would have given 4 stars and would visit again

T. L.

Had another lovely meal here, staff very friendly and they even have a excellent gluten free menu, which my 10 year old was very happy to have a good choice instead of the usual jacket potato.

l. q.

Really nice food and staff but when me and my family went there the bouncy castle had to be taken down because there was no adult supervision when there was so they just need to check to see if there are any adults watching their kids before they do something.
