The pork pies are so good, we&#39;ll drive over just for them. Perfect for grabbing a few to share with mates.

Generous portions for the price, perfect for a casual lunch with friends. The fish and chips hit the spot!

Cosy spot, and the staff are genuinely attentive. You can tell they care about the details, which made the evening feel relaxed. Service was spot-on without being overbearing.

I was really pleased to find the upstairs seating area. It&#39;s a clean and cozy spot, a definite upgrade from just grabbing takeaway. I could focus on my meal, and the ingredients in my salad tasted wonderfully fresh.

Nice spot with a balcony and pool table. The drinks selection is good, and it&#39;s a relaxed place to unwind.

Popped in for a quick lunch. The grab-and-go fridge is such a handy option. Everything I picked was fresh and tasty. The seating area was a bit cramped, but it&#39;s fine for a solo bite.

Loved the giant Yorkshire pudding with the curried veg soup! Perfect for a quick catch-up with friends. Staff were super nice too.

Grabbed a breakfast bun and hot chocolate after a long walk. Perfect quick bite. Bun was fresh and warm, hot chocolate hit the spot. Service was fast and friendly, just what you need.

They were about to close but still made us fresh prawn and cheese sandwiches. Really nice of them.

The team here is really nice. They noticed my elderly aunt had trouble with the stairs and helped her find a comfortable table without us even asking. That sort of consideration means a lot.

Love the new look! The touch-screen ordering is a game changer for a quick catch-up with mates.

The view from the terrace is just lovely, right on the water. They even had a water bowl out for dogs, which was a thoughtful touch. A very peaceful spot for a quiet drink.

The smashed burger was spot on, really juicy with that crispy edge. I went with a local IPA on tap, and the hoppy bitterness cut through the richness nicely. Chips were solid. Quick service for a lunch stop.

Came here with a group and was pleasantly surprised by the bill. Seven of us had a proper meal with drinks, and it didn&#39;t break the bank at all. The staff were really friendly, which made the whole evening feel relaxed.
