Good Honest Pub Food

Our kitchen takes a thoughtful approach to pub dining — familiar favourites prepared with clarity and quiet confidence. From tender steaks and hand-crafted pies to seasonal specials, every dish is rooted in quality ingredients and simple, honest flavour.

Drinks are chosen with the same care: local ales, well-curated wines, and British spirits served without fuss or pretense. It’s a modern pub experience, generous, unfussy, and quietly refined, with an energy that’s all its own.

Valentine's Menu

Make this Valentine’s Day one to remember by joining us for a delicious meal in a warm, welcoming setting. Whether you’re celebrating a romantic evening for two or simply enjoying great food with someone special, our carefully crafted dishes and relaxed atmosphere set the perfect scene. Sit back, savour every bite, and let us take care of the rest while you enjoy quality time together.

Crafted Drinks

Our Pub drinks are selected with the same care as our food. Local ales, perfectly kept and full of character, sit alongside crisp coastal whites and rich reds that complement hearty dishes beautifully.

A thoughtfully crafted gin and tonic, or a warming whisky, these are honest, well-balanced flavours that reflect the land and sea around us. Nothing flashy, just drinks that whisper rather than shout, leaving a quiet, memorable impression, those that belong effortlessly to the moment.

The Outside Inn

The outdoor lawned gardens are extensive and delightful, unfussy, and quietly beautiful. The outdoor area catches the afternoon sun, with local aromas brushing the air with scent. You can hear the soft clink of glasses, the hum of conversation. It’s the kind of spot where a pint of local ale or a crisp glass of white feels just right, and where food tastes better simply because you’re outside, with time to spare and nothing to prove, just watch for the rain.

Seasonal Food & Drink

Our chefs don’t just cook, they create dishes that move with the seasons. Each menu reflects the best of what’s fresh and in season, with ingredients chosen for their flavour, quality, and integrity. Inspired by modern British classics, the kitchen is grounded in proper technique and guided by a deep respect for the produce. It’s food that captures the moment, honest, thoughtful, and exactly as it should taste.

A Sunday Tradition

The Sunday roast, a time-honored British tradition, reimagined with a touch of playful flair.

Sink into perfectly roasted meats, crisp golden potatoes, Yorkshire puddings puffed up like proud old hats, and seasonal veg cooked to just the right bite. All generously coated in the chef’s rich, glossy gravy.

It’s a meal that feels like a warm hug from history, comforting, familiar, and deeply satisfying, with just the right amount of finesse to keep it fresh. A proper Sunday, done right.
