I love their beer selection, always have a tasty tipple for me to get stuck into after a good biking session. I had the Firebird Citra for the first time this day and I enjoyed it a lot.
The staff are friendly and willing to help, which is all positive and encouraging.
The food hasn’t been amazing the last couple of years though, I thought this time it would be different, but I was sadly a little dissatisfied and disappointed. I got a sausage and onion baguette and to be fair that is exactly what I got. But…
For £10 I would expect what I got to come with Chips and sadly it didn’t, we had to order chips for an extra £7 admittedly we went for the cheesy chips, but I’m fairly certain the standard ones were a fiver.
Then the second nail in the coffin was the Half pint of Diet Coke I got, this was £3!! For a half pint of soda stream Diet Coke… that’s a lot by anyone’s standards especially round here.
It feels they are slightly taking advantage of the fact that lots of bikers come here and expect they have lots of money, but this is a country pub yet they are charging London prices for some things.
I hope my next experience is more positive, but I can’t help but be honest.
My mates Steak Baguette did look better, and was only 50p more, but chips included even just a small portion would go a long way.
We were in a group of 14 on a Sunday lunch time and had sent through our food orders in advance. Some of our party were a little late but we were seated without them.
Drink orders were brought over relatively quickly and food came out all together which is always a challenge for such a large group.
Very generous portion sizes but good quality too. My roast was lovely, however the potatoes were wedge style rather than roasts which was a little disappointing.
