A Taste of Tradition

Our chefs pour passion into every dish, serving bold, honest flavours that speak for themselves.

Think hand-crafted pies, juicy steaks, vibrant veg with a proper bite, and puddings that please the eye as much as the palate. These are dishes served steaming and full of character, often made with ingredients sourced from talented local producers. Nothing overly complicated, just food done with care and skill.

And the drinks? Local ales with stories to tell, wines chosen for taste over label, British spirits picked with thought, and cocktails that delight without the fuss. Come for the food, stay for the company, and enjoy moments made to savour and remember.

Crafted Drinks

Our Pub drinks are selected with the same care as our food. Local ales, perfectly kept and full of character, sit alongside crisp coastal whites and rich reds that complement hearty dishes beautifully. A thoughtfully crafted gin and tonic, or a warming whisky by the fire, these are honest, well-balanced flavours that reflect the land and sea around us. Nothing flashy, just drinks that whisper rather than shout, leaving a quiet, memorable impression, those that belong effortlessly to the moment.

The Outside Courtyard

The outdoor courtyard and garden are delightful, unfussy, and quietly beautiful. Wooden tables catch the afternoon sun, with local aromas brushing the air with scent.

You can hear the soft clink of glasses, the hum of conversation, maybe the faint cry of a gull or blackbird overhead.

It’s the kind of spot where a pint of local ale or a crisp glass of white feels just right, and where food tastes better simply because you’re outside, with time to spare and nothing to prove, just watch for the rain.

Pub People

Whenever you visit us, you’ll be met by the warmth and charm of our remarkable pub people, custodians of tradition and welcome. In our proudly independent, locally rooted pub, a team spirit runs deep, offering every guest not just service with smiles, but a sense of belonging. It is this quiet pride and personal touch that makes each visit truly memorable

A Sunday Tradition

The Sunday roast, an age-old British tradition, reimagined with a playful twist in our pub.
Think perfectly roasted meats, crisp roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings puffed up like proud old hats, and seasonal veg cooked to just the right bite, all generously bathed in the chef’s rich, glossy gravy.

It’s a meal that feels like a warm hug from history: comforting, familiar, and delicious, with just enough finesse to keep things interesting. A proper Sunday, done right.

Private Dining & Events

Beyond the bustle of the bar, the conservatory offers a bright and elegant escape, filled with natural light and views of the garden. Sunlight dances across the tables by day, while by night, it glows with soft ambience and quiet charm. It’s a space where slow-cooked dishes and good wine take centre stage, where laughter drifts on the evening breeze, and moments stretch out like a perfect afternoon. A room made for warmth, celebration, and lingering company.
