Outside to the back is a small paved, partially-covered patio area, and a lawned area with picnic tables, childrens play equipment and a petanque piste. A wide range of food includes traditional pub favourites, value lunches on weekdays, plus a Sunday carvery. Tiger drinkers should be aware that the keg version is also sold.
