Not from being round this area, we read the reviews, majority being very positive so thought we'd try it.
First the positives
Beef was tender and Gammon tasty.
Real mash and the hottest item on plate.
Carrots and runner beans cooked to perfection.
Roast potatoes were really nice.
Coke was fizzy.
Prices really quite reasonable and two size options.
The lady serving the Carvery was lovely.
Negatives
Barman gave the impression that we should know how the Carvery works in this establishment, only when told we'd never been here before was we given an explanation.
Most places will give an explanation on arrival.
Gravy was really quite thin (I like thick gravy, I'm aware that it is a preference and others may prefer this type)
The cauliflower cheese didn't look appealing at all, it looked like bits of cauliflower floating in cheesy coloured water, but again others may prefer it this way.
The general vibe of the pub was unwelcoming, maybe it was because we're not regulars.
Wish you all the best and hope comments made will be taken as constructive criticism.

Very poor carvery, chicken was a very peppery fillet not off a roast chIcken. Roast potatoes and mash luke warm, cabbage only veg optuon Yorkshire pudding to hard to cut. Won't be returning

Dropped in for a meal on a Sunday as we hadn't eaten here before. Really enjoyed the food, they had two size options for all main meals which I though was a good idea and the prices were good too. My partner who is vegetarian could see no options for her on the menu but they were happy to make up anything she wanted including veg sausages, nut roast and veg burgers. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will be visiting again.

Recently taken over by new landlords this pub is very much on the up!!!
Huge beer garden is fabulous for the summer time and plenty of car parking even when they're busy. The refurbished concert hall is a great place for dancing and/or parties.
