We wish you a warm welcome to…..The original, the famous and the much celebrated,
WINE – chosen with care, priced to be reasonable for the quality
ALE – against the odds…….we are still a 100% free house (‘can’t think of any around here’), so we are able to stock any real ale (a real passion of ours), or lager we wish and keep the price right. Our ale is not determined by accountants or bank managers (unless they are customers and behave themselves!), it is decided upon because of it’s quality and local popularity
COOKHOUSE – virtually our entire menu is freshly cooked (i.e. not ‘bought in’), i.e. we cook it ourselves and once again, even though the portions are on the ‘very generous’ side, we tend to keep the bill lower than the local competition. We opt for honest quality of ingredients and source locally and use local trades, supplies and consumables, wherever possible

Head Chef’s Note;
‘Please bear with us; we consider quality far more important than speed!’
(However, if you are in a hurry please let us know when you order)
Upon the unavailabilty of a product, I do my best to replace it with one of equal quality
Thank you

No Service Charge is ever added to any bills (nor the dodgy ‘optional’ service charge…), as we believe that our customers, if they so wish,will reward good service appropriately
