Stepping Stones

Read about this place as we have a large German shep, and wanted somewhere to eat. Got to say it was really really good! The staff were lovely and spoilt our dog with treats and his own water bowl. The food was delicious and well presented and the place itself is very pleasant. It was a quiet Monday night so not busy, but the whole evening was a treat!

After several hours of hiking the hills, a group of us finished the day here before heading back to London via the nearby train.
I could have stayed a few more hours here.
From the outside it looks like a nice country pub. Once you step inside, however, it’s a beautiful sanctuary. The first big room is a casual bar with lots of informal seats with a modern farmhouse vibe. The second area is a nice, smart dining room. Very spacious and bright. The back area had another feel, something a bit more relaxed and country. We were all rough and muddy, so we headed into the back.
Food-​wise, they are pretty modern, offering salads, seafood, heart soups and sandwiches, plus a chalkboard full of specials. And on our visit, being a Sunday, there were also several traditional roasts and entrees.
I thought the food was pretty solid, but my roast beef was a bit tough. That might have been the cut. But otherwise, I felt we were served by the whole family — and done so quickly, efficiently and with a smile.
You can’t go wrong with a stop here.
