Please call us to book a table; sorry, but we can’t accept bookings by email. Our policy is not to book out all tables just in case you don’t book in advance. We now have some big tables upstairs for larger parties.
Payments
We take debit and credit cards. Contactless and Apple Pay are available. Sorry, but we can’t take Amex/ Diners.

Parking and Accessibility

Parking
For the time being we have a small car park to the rear of the pub.  There is plenty of local parking close to the pub.

Smoking

As per the law, smoking is forbidden inside the pub and we have extended this policy to include a ban on e-cigarettes within the building. There is however an extensive outside terrace where smoking is permitted.  We request that smokers always respect the space of other diners and don’t cluster around the entrances. Thank you for your co-operation.

Free Wifi

Should you feel the need to use it, but try not to do too much work, this is a pub after all.
