The Chairman left this review about The Bowling Green
Last visited in November 2023, I can vouch for the quality of both food and beer. The pub is really food led, being very popular for dinners during the holiday season, and those who just want a drink use the area just in front of the bar. The 3 ales on offer were the almost ubiquitous Wherry along with Greene King Abbot and Rocking Rudolph.

Great little pub. We have been here many times. Not the easiest to find, but well worth looking for.
Woodforde's Nelsons Revenge on a hand pump, very nice indeed, in every respect.
The food is good, too. Try the ham. It is proper ham off the bone, not the reconstituted elastoplast you get from the supermarkets.
