We had to wait an hour for our food. A note before we came in for our booking that this would be the case could be helpful as we would've come in and order earlier. The staff were friendly and i could tell they were doing their best to make us comfortable in the Sunday lunch chaos and the food was delicious in the end.

A large group of us came for our work Xmas dinner. Needed to leave on time for a concert and the staff were extremely attentive to ensure the food, drinks and bill were received in a timely manner. The food was absolutely delicious, the group agreed it was the best pub food we have had in a long time. Atmosphere also great. Thrilled with the visit, thanks all.

Nice, airy dog friendly pub with friendly staff. Food is ordered through a QR code on the table which has worked with no issues every time I've used it.Menu is varied so there's something for everyone and food is good quality with good portions.There's some vegan options on the menu- one on the sandwich menu and at least two on the main menu and they're not half-hearted. Would definitely recommend trying the falafel, as they are super tasty, crispy on the outside and light on the inside. They go well as an extra to the nourish bowl.

Good Christmas meal I had a while ago. Interesting flavors with their burgers but wasn't all too interested in anything else. The price matched that of London's and the burger was too dry for my liking. Maybe I'll go back again for round two to see if anything has changed but it won't be a while.

It was a nice place to have a drink, shame about the £85 parking charge for having a drink there though!Very professionally dealt with after speaking to the General Manager Dan.Will be returning for many more drinks and meals. Very friendly and helpful staff also.

Food is okay. The Sunday roast sold out very quickly. We were lucky to be able to join the pub quiz last Sunday too. What a fun experience!

Food was easy to order but took nearly an hour to arrive for basic roast dinners. When they arrived it was all like warm and the cauliflower cheese was cold . Didn’t help that the people sat by us had a dog which was climbing on the seating and they were feeding it food off their plates.Won’t return or recommend
