Visited back in April. Four hand pulls at the bar, but only two on, offering Black Sheep Bitter and Wily Fox Vixen. The Vixen may have been slightly below par, and set me back £4.15 for a pint.
It's a nice modern feeling pub, food is served including monthly set menu specials. On the subject of food, I opted for the Dandy Burger at £12.50 which was very nice and filling, however the chips could have been a bit fluffier and most would have benefited from another minute or two in the fryer.
Dogs are welcome and it is family friendly. Live music was being advertised for Easter, not sure if this is something that happens regularly throughout the year.
Two front of hours girls were working hard in the reasonably busy pub at the time of my Wednesday lunch time visit.
Despite being a bit on the fence about the quality of the pint, I'd probably be willing to give it another chance if I was in the area.

A pleasant enough country pub in a small village. 2 roomed with the smallish public bar area housing a pool table. The larger lounge is pleasant and clean though rather spartanly decored. There is a raised area by the front windows. The servery serves both rooms and there are 2 handpumps on the public bar area. A reversed Doom Bore clip was on so no loss there. There is also an Indian restaurant connected apparently.
