The kitchen

British ingredients, globally influenced plates

The menu changes with the seasons and is built around fresh British ingredients. Expect thoughtful gastropub cooking across lunch and dinner, with steak, burgers and classic comfort dishes among the options. Sunday brings a standout roast, while desserts such as toffee pudding have also earned praise.

The bar

A proper local stop for good beer

The central bar has three hand-pulled beers alongside craft ales, draught beer, wine, spirits and non-alcoholic options. There is outdoor seating too, and dogs are welcome, making it an easy place to drop in for a drink or settle in for food.
