"Managed to get a table at late notice which was good. Table was small for 4 persons and dogs were allowed in which sadly for daughter was not great as she’s terrified of them. Service was fine and meal arrived quickly. The menu online is not the menu offered on a Sunday as prices are more expensive than online. (Said £6.95/7.95 and upward online) Still for £9.95 not a bad Sunday lunch price however you really don’t get a lot of food. We got one bowl of veg between 4 plenty carrots, cauliflower and cabbage but not a lot of turnip 3 spoons and it was gone. A separate bowl of mushy peas. We did not get a lot of meat and one person had only a few shredded pieces on their plate and small spoonful of mash/roasts. One large Yorkshire. Food tasted nice just don’t expect a huge portion. Desert menu was plentiful priced around £5 each. We enjoyed deserts and quite filling. Drinks reasonably priced also."

"Friendly village local pub and restaurant. Fresh food is First class and very reasonably priced with good portions of great British fayre. Place is spotlessly clean, always a smile from behind the bar from Ian, Joanne and Lee, Caroline is our favourite waitress and Sophie the chef cooks steak to perfection. A very happy welcoming place buzzing with lighthearted banter that has a special magnetism which draws you back time and time again."

"Asked to order food at 5:50 after receiving a menu at 5:00. Told they would be with us in a few minutes. 6:20 we get told that after a few tables he would be back to take our order. After taking orders of other customers after us we went inside to be told we could not be in the pub and that someone would be with us. 6:40 more orders taken after given a menu 5 minutes before. 6:45 we decided to walk out. Absolute awful service."

"Went out with a family of drinks where okay (but no fosters on tap), ordered our meal on a quiet Saturday night at turn over time was good, but forgot one of the starters, so had to eat that alone as everyone else...had finished before that starter arrived. Then the mains came, pizzas where good to be honest, but had the risotto which was wrong when it arrived so sent back to fix, they brought another dish out completely different and then once the correct dish came out it was disgusting! It was horrible chicken, loads of raw spring onions, and I found a piece of rubber in the dish. When I mentioned this, I got... aww sorry. This was it, nothing else just take the plate away. This is on my door step and truth be told, I would rather stay at home and cook myself if this was the experience I knew I was going to have. For me, it ruined our family night out together."

"We have just returned from an excellent afternoon at the Duke of York. The occasion was my mother's 80th birthday and we had circa 30 guests family and friends there for the afternoon in a private area. We have been planning this for a few months and talking to Imogen, who runs the pub, who has been excellent not only in listening to the detail and requirements of our event, but also giving advice and sharing her experience to help ensure that the quantities and timing of the food were right, and also being very patient and flexible when last minute changes were made from our side. On the day, everything was as it should be and the food was excellent. Again, seeing how the afternoon was flowing, she identified and suggested slight changes that really helped things run smoothly. Throughout, Imogen and the team were friendly and helpful, and we can't thank them enough for helping make my Mam's 80th a success. As I type this, I'm still getting messages from people saying how nice the venue and food was. And while it doesn't matter on an occasion like this, we were also very pleasantly surprised at the final bill! Thank you!"
