"We visited on a very busy evening for the pub however the service was still efficient. The portion sizes were generous and we left feeling very full!"

On arrival, the pub looked cute and cosy open early for breakfast, decent reviews it seems a place to get out of the snow! After sitting down for a few minutes we ordered breakfast coffee, all seemed fine until we heard ‘local regulars’ having a xenophobic, conversation with the waitress about refugees. This conversation took place as the waitress was behind the bar and the couple sat across from her at their table, and with no music playing no atmosphere at all actually) and no one else in the pub it was hard to hear anything else! Myself my partner felt very awkward, angry and extremely uncomfortable it was just loud enough to hear and as the only other people in there we couldn’t decide if this was the norm in this place, or if this was just a few ‘bad apples’ but they obviously didn’t seem to care that we could openly hear their conversation discussing refugees as if they were item? which makes me think it’s the norm here) Extremely harmful, especially given the tragic history of this place a lynching had taken place only 3 years ago) the continuous shocking racism that comes from their local MP Philip Dune. And this isn’t a personal ‘woke’ agenda as the business owner tried to suggest when we complained, ‘leave my agenda at the door’ we were told in the only google review the venue have seemed to respond too, quite worrying they are not trying to reassure us we had misheard but instead were very defensive and took no accountability) this is just the truth of this town information you could easily find on google when reviewing where to visit, which made this whole experience even more uncomfortable. Even if they were having a completely innocent conversation, why do they feel the need to do this over the bar to the customers and not have their own personal conversation at the table which we did not have to overhear? Are the staff too lazy to walk around to the table? It most certainly was not busy so there was no excuse for this whole situation to take place. It was our first time in this town and the whole thing was just really uncomfortable. You’d think the town a local business especially, would be doing all they can to separate themselves from such things. It’s a shame the energy and atmosphere doesn’t match the beautiful surroundings. I’d recommend avoiding, awkward xenophobic conversation aside the Veggie breakfast was very bland and basic, sausages had no flavour other than the sauce I put on them and my partners poached eggs were undercooked soggy
If someone mentions carvery I’m normally out as it’s usually a good way to ruin a roast, however I’m so pleased I didn’t swerve it, as it was delicious! There were 14 of us on a Sunday, service was friendly and swift, food was great, well cooked, hot and tasty. Next time I would mention vegetarians when we arrive, they did a Moussaka for the veggie option which was really nice. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area.
Great food, me and a friend came, had the most beautiful meal, I returned with my husband a few weeks later as I had enjoyed it so much! The beef rib starter was incredible melted in my mouth. I had a surf and turf which was beautiful and my husband a mixed grill which was massive, he really enjoyed. We will be back.
