While walks‑ins are always welcome, we do recommend booking in advance.

For Sunday roasts, larger groups, or busy evenings, please book with us in advance to avoid any disappointment by using our booking tool on the website or give us a call.
We do - our beer garden and front terrace are open year‑round and are favourite spots in the warmer months. The garden is dog‑friendly, family‑friendly, and perfect for a relaxed pint or outdoor dining.
We offer a wide range of drinks, including:

• Local guest ales that rotate regularly
• A strong line‑up of beers and ciders on tap
• A curated selection of wines and spirits
• A great choice of non‑alcoholic beers, ciders, and soft drinks

There’s always something new to try, especially if you enjoy local breweries.
Yes - we’re very happy to host private events. We offer exclusive hire of our restaurant, which comfortably seats up to 40 guests or holds around 60 standing. If you’re planning something larger, you can also hire the entire pub, with space for 80+ guests.  Please contact us and ask for Jon to discuss your specific requirements. 

For group dining, we can create set menus based on our current offering, or work with you on a bespoke menu tailored to your event. Please see our Menu section for sample catering options.

Yes - our kitchen team is fully trained in handling all food allergies, and we offer clear guidance on gluten‑free, dairy‑free, vegetarian, and vegan dishes.

However, as all dishes are prepared in the same kitchen, we cannot guarantee that our dishes are suitable for guests with severe allergies.
