Group of 5. Food undercooked (fried food) overcooked steak, and pizza poorly made and the place is run down. One of the staff (female) seemed like she would rather be anywhere else but there, male staff was good. Place is very run down now (have visited in previous years). Good selection of beers and sport on tv otherwise it wouldve been a 1 star review. Would not recommend.

Used to be so much better. Don't eat there anymore. Really wish they would clean and update the place properly, everything is jaded. Nothing much going for it except the alcohol prices are good.

A local pub with below par food unfortunately. We went here to try somewhere different but won't come back for dinner. I had the Chefs special of beef schnitzel but there was nothing special about it. Ordered a side of garlic mushrooms which was a sad small plate My partner had the mussel pot but the mussels were overcooked and shrivelled the curry sauce was packet sauce, watery as and not rich as a good curry sauce should be. The owners did compensate our meals by giving our next drinks free and the service was prompt. The atmosphere was ok, clean tidy, welcoming.

Didn't have the ingredients for 3 of our orders (pasta) and we waited almost an hour to get served. They didn't understand our order and kid got adult size and we got charged for it. Not coming again. Ended up taking the pizza home and cooking it properly.

Went for dinner last night.. Chicken cabannara was a pile of spaghetti with 3 shredded chicken pieces and 4 bits of mushrooms..bacon on top was cold.. My grandson and i left half of it behind.. Service below par. Girl who served food and drinks had a puffer jacket and a beanie on. 2 staff behind bar not much better.very dissapointing to time gone by when that place had alot of class and meals were amazing.. Had family from Australia with me too.. Not impressed..

Chicken is not ready. Between all stuff we ordered just chips ok. Not worth the money.

What a shame the lady behind the bar was very rude and doesn't very keen on taking our order. A guy who came to check on us look like he just came from the beach or gym but was friendly as . I though it was a pub/restaurant they could learn some manners and dress like they r meant to be there . Only good thing there the food was yummy not sure if the valid of money to what we got was worth it .

Good sized place with an outdoor area, screens and a pool table. That's almost the end of the good. Only one person behind bar. Was not interested at all. Had air buds in. Sat at table which was very sticky. I went there with family, some who ordered the Guiness. Came out like black tar. Kilkennys was good. Those who ordered ribs were bitterly disappointed. Tough as well as cold in parts. The chicken tacos were rubbery. Chips were fine. I ordered the bangers and mash which was surprisingly good.

Typical English styled pub with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating areas. On the day of my visit there was only one person at the bar which made for a wait. The beer promo was poor, 3 out of the 4 choices were not available despite a sign been up advertising the deal.
