The extensive menu includes some global influences among the pubby favourites, but it’s the signature country pot pies that catch the eye, with a different filling each week and a generous enough portion to satisfy even the most hearty of appetites. Every dish comes with a wine or cocktail recommendation from the well-priced list, and the warm, welcoming team show a real desire to please.
