"We came as a family last Sunday and couldn’t believe how cute the little building was on the outside and transported you back in time when you stepped into the tea parlour. Our host was Stacey who was really friendly, funny and attentive. We decided to go get a selection of the classic afternoon tea and savoury afternoon tea- both were so tasty and made to order. The bread for the sandwiches was so soft, the fillings especially the egg mayonnaise was creamy and not eggy in the slightest. The cheese scones and pork pie were delightful too (Stacey told their secret to making the cheese scones so light and fluffy). The onion marmalade was so moorish we ended up buying a bottle to take home. The classic afternoon tea was also delicious with everything being well presented, sweet but not too sweet and plentiful (we took a doggy bag home). The presentation of our afternoon teas was lovely and we loved the china as it dates back from the early 1900s and some from the mid-late 1800s. I have to say that this is the best afternoon tea I’ve had in the U.K. and after travelling and living abroad. It is definitely worth booking going, you won’t regret it and I can’t wait to go back!"

"Eating was really good. 4 of us ordered 3 different dishes and 3 of us ordered the same dessert. In portions were on the small side, we had to ask for additional maic with the nut roast and the dessert portions could also have been larger and with more fruit in the crumb. the personal was generally excellent and very friendly. Being dog-friendly is also crucial to us because we were in the opposite and the dogs would not have left behind too. really enjoyed the meal and would come back absolutely. book them further to be sure that a table is also in the middle of the week they are good to be busy."

"How sad to hear of the closure. We really enjoyed our overnight stay in August and were looking forward to returning. Everything exceeded our expectations...the room, staff, food and entertainment. Many thanks to Simon and all the staff, Scott Wardell and Bladerunner for a fantastic day and night Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5"

"Food Food for when your drunk, thats all this is. The food was bland and dull but was overall okay. The chilli was as flavourful as water and full of mince with little to no beans or other ingredients. All in all the food here isnt great but its what you expect from pub food and isnt going to be top notch. Service The service was okay and the food came quickly. Complaints There was a few flys around as well as the overall place being a little unclean."

"Just called in for Nachos as had them before as great, not disappointed. However ordered a half of Diet Coke and my wife had water, when settling bill I was charged £3.40 for the half of coke I queried this and was told by bar person I always ask if you want a half or pint as pint is only 50p more,I said you did not add the snippet of pint only 50p more. I feel they are just out to rob you by charging so much for a half and not advising small increase for the pint. Bar person had permanent smirk on face when pointing this out, we will never return despite good nachos and would recommend you all to ask for drinks menu before ordering."
