Just wanted to say that had a Christmas Meal at this pub last year. The staff were brillant, nice and friendly. The food was more than enough to eat. We had a wonderful time. Thanks

The first thing that I noticed when I walked in to this pub was a lectern with a sign attached saying “Please wait here to be seated”. I think that gives you some idea about the sort of establishment that this is, and it’s not likely to be somewhere that any of the regulars on this site are going to pop into for a decent ale, not least because every table in there seemed to be laid up for food. Not exactly welcoming if you're just popping in for a pint.
I’m struggling a bit as to how to describe this pub. It’s just got that bland, corporate feel to it that must be replicated in dozens of other similar chain pubs up and down the country. There’s nothing at all offensive about it, there’s plenty of wood around, it’s all nicely carpeted and it was clean and tidy. It’s just got no character whatsoever. Unsurprisingly, it seemed very quiet on a recent Saturday evening visit.
The food is on a permanent “2 for 1” offer, all day every day. This immediately alienates me as clearly you know that the food is only going to be worth, at best, half the marked price. I didn’t study the menu, but did notice a large selection on a board just by the entrance, that you could peruse while you were “waiting to be seated”.
Beers on offer were Brakspear’s Oxford Gold and Pedigree. The solitary cider was Strongbow, unfortunately.
