Refurbished and renamed Lime Tree in June of 2015. Kaffir is also a variety of lime, hence the origin of the pub's new inoffensive name. The main bar at the front has the appearance of three rooms knocked through to form one large room with sufficient bits of the dividing walls left intact to maintain a perception of distinct individual areas. To the rear there is a large restaurant. Outside there is a paved area with picnic tables and then at the back a very large garden with a well-equipped childrens play area. Popular for family dining, with vegan and gluten free menus available.
