• Yep, I knew when I walked in it was going to be rubbish, should have walked out!!! Horrible meal, service terrible. This place used to be really good, not now... Its not even good value, at least other pubs the food is OK for the money, this was just horrible, bad stomach for a day as well...

• Went for Sunday lunch yesterday 23/9 it was disgusting. Frozen or powdered potato, burnt turnip loads of hard peas and a few skanky carrots for our veg. Me my husband and youngest daughter have all had an upset tummy today. Will certainly not be going back

• I would not recommend at all after spending £30 on a prawn sandwich, Burger (made from goodness what), Chicken and kids Pasta and Pizza(disgusting) They twice got my dessert wrong no apology from the staff got my £4 back and the staff went out for a smoke. Also I stuck to the very dirty tables. Will not return
