Pub with a food focus offering a comfortable bar area with various extensions to provide space for a large kitchen and restaurant

The pub claims to be the first pub to accept card only payments for food and drinks.

Outside the entire site has been re-landscaped and improved with new car parking areas, large garden areas, a wide screen cinema room.

The core of the building is thought to date from the 17th century, with 18th or 19th century extensions to the left and a 20th century extension to the right. Reopened in early July 2018 after a major building and site refurbishment. Had previously been closed since 2010.

The pub is open on Bank Holiday Mondays, but otherwise closed on Mondays.

Food Service hours should be checked with the pub prior to a visit.
