"This restaurant is a hidden gem, conveniently located away from the main routes. It features a cozy, old-fashioned decor that tastefully blends elements from various periods, showcasing wood and exposed brick that create a warm, fire-side ambiance. The service was both attentive and friendly, perfectly complementing the food, which represents a delightful fusion of country pub fare, continental dishes, and modern cuisine. The warm Scotch egg and fried chicken strips from the snack menu are both outstanding. The wine list is extensive and carefully curated, and there’s a great selection of keg and cask ales alongside an impressive gin menu. Overall, the quality of the food and drink is excellent, all offered at very reasonable prices."
