Modern uninspiring building with large and comfortable spaces inside. We hadn’t been here for some time because we had been doubtful about the menu and the food quality. Menu is typical Sizzling fare which appears to have lots of choice on the surface but is typical pub food with the addition of sizzling hot cast iron dishes for a range of items. My sirloin steak was OK at under £8, my wife had a large(king size) portion of scampi which was good, but our friend was unable to eat her rump steak on the ‘surf and turf’ because it was too tough. this is basically a ‘chips with everything’ menu and we don’t find their chips particularly appetising, perhaps because of the oil used. Why can’t they offer baked potato like other places? why also was is necessary to put so called onion rings(mainly batter) onto a dish already containing partially cooked fresh onion? Drinks were reasonably priced. The staff are excellent, very friendly and helpful. We are just sorry that they have to serve food that isn’t attractive enough to get us to return.

Situated at the side of a housing estate most of the regulars seem to be locals. It’s a nice looking pub outside and is very nice inside. Spacious and well decorated. The drinks on offer are well varied and I can well recommend the food. I found this pub after being taken there for a business lunch and have visited ever since. Well worth a visit for lunch or a cosy evening.
