"I didn’t make a reservation for dinner tonight, but we were warmly welcomed by a pleasant waitress named Morgan, who was incredibly helpful. She showed us to our table, and our drink and food orders were taken promptly. The meal was fantastic—honestly, the best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time. Unfortunately, my phone battery was dying. We were also attended to by Jack, who was equally friendly and always smiling. I highly recommend this place! Thank you for a lovely evening. x"

"There were three of us visiting for Sunday lunch. My wife and I live 100 miles out of Burton and wanted to take my Burton based Mum out for Sunday Lunch. The pub website specifically said ‘Gluten Free menu available’, and the ratings were good. When we arrived though the experience for my wife was very poor. There was no GF menu available and, eventually, the (helpful) server got a menu (partially) marked up by the chef. There were four starters available none of these were GF, and all included some bread, with no GF bread available either. Mother’s prawn cocktail was superb but our enjoyment was limited with Dani having to just watch. For main courses there were 2 roasts and eight other choices. Two of the non roasts were GF and the roast dinner options were advised as ‘GF available’ (which just meant taking off the Yorkshire pudding and stuffing of course). Dani went for Roast Turkey, and we had two Roast Beef dinners too these were all very good, with plenty of veg, but Dani’s enjoyment was again limited when she saw how good our (huge) Yorkshire pudding was. It was also surprising that extra gravy (which was GF) was charged for. Eight desserts and only two were GF, and one of these was ice cream. Overall the food was good and I would recommend provided you don’t have a coeliac (like Dani) or other GF in your party, as there’s very, very little GF awareness (although they did suggest they were going to ‘sort this out’ as we left)."

"I had been eager to visit this restaurant for some time due to the positive reviews. The pub has been nicely renovated and the staff were friendly and attentive. However, the food did not live up to our expectations. The Albondigas starter was tasty, but the sharing Camembert starter was lukewarm and it was clear that a ripe one had not been used as it did not melt. We expressed our disappointment to the staff. As for main courses, one person in our group had the delicious salmon, while the venison pies were decent and the king prawn linguini was lukewarm. We once again shared our disappointment with the staff, as we believe honest feedback is important for the kitchen. They offered to replace the pasta, but we declined as it would have meant eating separately from the rest of the group and it was not as enjoyable as we had hoped. The restaurant seemed quiet for a Saturday evening, and we regretted not opting for Sunday lunch, as that is when the good reviews seem to come from. Would we come back? I don't think so, but I hope we just caught them on an off day."

"Lovely little cafe with reasonably priced light bites, sandwiches, paninis, potatoes etc. The coffee is from a machine but is nice and has decaf which is a winner Paninis were lovely and had the added bonus of salad and crisps. Good fun watching the planes go past on a sunny afternoon Plenty of parking, not really space for a pram/pushchair instead but there are outside tables if weather suits. Ramp available for wheelchair users.
