Very enjoyable Sunday Lunch

Even though the staff were under pressure as a result of a couple large group bookings, they remained cheerful. The food was very good, and reasonably priced. Good selection of Fullers Ales, plus wines and spirits.

Having parked up and found a space in their car park, it was chips galore for lunch! We ordered sandwiches as well as a couple of bowls of chips - little realising that sandwiches, from a fairly limited lunch menu, came with chips. Menu should...More

Finally someone who can cook a steak medium rare

Went here a couple of days ago and had the steak which was perfectly cooked (unusual in my experience). Nice outside seating area for the sunny weather. The service was friendly and attentive. Good pint of London Pride.
