Greene King pub with the definite feel of a chain pub, right down to the cameras in the car park and the machine on the bar to input your vehicle registration.
We arrived to find a few groups of people enjoying a meal and drinks on evenings out. Although there did seem to be a few people just there for a drink at the bar.
The pub is set on a couple of levels, with plenty of secluded areas to enjoy a meal. I hesitate to say "enjoy a drink", as my beer was far from enjoyable. Greene King IPA & Abbot are the regular beers. Guests were Greene King Ghangly Ghoul & St Austell Tribute. With Halloween just around the corner, the Ghangly Goul was my beer of choice, but was a real horror show! On the plus side, my son did enjoy the slice of cake he had spotted (for sale) on the bar and being a Greene King pub, I did at least get 10% off the Ghangly Goul.

Fairly large roadside inn on a main road through the village, opposite a McLaren car outlet suggesting a well to do area.
Pleasently decorated in purple and light green inside, there are diffent areas and levels around the bar. The menu looked good and most meals under £6, though I didn't eat here. A comfortable nice pub.
3 real ales, Courage Best and Directors, plus a guest (Brains SA on my visit).
Well worth trying.
