"Was initially shocked to see so many negative reviews for what I found to be an excellent pub, until further reading revealed that they all pertain to a previous landlady who sounds like she was a right piece of work if the accuracy of the previous reviews are to be believed. Fortunately our experience was more aligned to recent reviews post October 2019. Firstly it’s a cracking pub building. The original Victorian section is still in place with three separate small rooms arranged around the central serving area accessed by a corridor that retains a serving hatch. Still a very traditional feel to these rooms but the small bow-windowed panelled room to the right-hand side of the central entrance is particularly inviting. Then a more modern mainly flagstone extension section to the back doubles, if not trebles the inside space and, although lacking the character of the front section, is comfortable enough and contains a large flat screen tele for those wishing to view the sport. And then beyond this section is a very nice outside raised walled courtyard garden which was catching the mid day sun for our visit and has the benefit of being far enough back that any traffic noise is negligible. Secondly a decent selection of ales were available. The front bar supports four hand pumps and for our visit these were badged with Timothy Taylor Landlord, Totally Brewed Four Hop Men of the Apocalypse, Draught Bass and Oakham Citra. The Landlord was currently off so we went for the Oakham Citra which was on fine form. No hot food was available, but large cobs as I believe they call them in these parts were available from behind the bar and cheese board and pork pie platters were being advertised on a chalk board. We went for one each of these and they hit the spot completely. No better pub food has ever been devised than a substantial locally produced Pork Pie and English Mustard for soaking up a pint of English ale. With very friendly service levels from the team working the bar we enjoyed our visit here, and I would thoroughly recommend the slight uphill detour from the banks of the nearby River Trent to visit this one."
