Inspector comments
"Anglo-French cooking in traditional country inn."
Overview
A smartly attired Georgian pub with low oak beams, log fire and exposed brick bar, this cosy bolthole also benefits from a garden and terrace. Well-kept real ales and a large range of wines by the glass are matched by some serious food, including creative daily fish and vegetarian specials.
