This traditional country pub has a homely feel, but its restaurant steps up the style with brown leather chairs and deep-red drapes. Serving an all-day menu, the kitchen turns out everything from early-morning breakfasts, to lingering dinners. Traditional English dishes on the extensive menu start with soup of the day, or duck and orange paté, served with warm bread and apple and pear chutney. Come mains, hearty, comforting dishes take centre stage – see the homemade pies, beer-battered fish & chips, and a classic lasagne served with garlic bread and salad. Desserts change daily so be sure to ask your waiter what’s on offer, while lagers, wines, draft beers and ciders are on hand to wash it all down. If you’re looking to make an evening of it, stop off in the cosy bar which comes complete with an open fire, but if you’d prefer a night in, the restaurant also offers a takeaway service.
