Rooted in Flavour

Here, food is honest and full of intent. Every dish starts with quality ingredients and ends with bold, uncomplicated flavour. Think slow-braised meats, hand-crafted pies, vibrant seasonal vegetables with real bite, and desserts that are as satisfying as they are beautiful. It’s not about fuss, it’s about getting the basics absolutely right. You’ll find care on every plate, flavour in every bite, and warmth in every meal shared.

Crafted Drinks, Poured with Purpose

Our bar is an extension of the kitchen, drinks chosen not to impress, but to belong. Local ales that reflect the region’s brewing heritage. Crisp whites and structured reds that hold their own beside hearty dishes. Spirits poured with precision, whether it’s a clean gin and tonic or a whisky to wind down with. Nothing flashy, just well-made, well-matched drinks that complete the experience.

Outside Dining

There’s something quietly magical about eating outdoors when it’s done right. Our garden is simple and unfussy, with wooden tables that catch the sun and gentle floral scents on the breeze. It’s a space that hums with conversation and ease, perfect for a chilled glass of wine or a pint that’s just hit the spot. The food tastes better here, not because it’s different, but because the moment slows down long enough for you to notice it.

Seasonal Classics

Our chefs cook with heart and precision, serving bold, honest plates, juicy steaks, hand-crafted pies, vibrant seasonal vegetables, and desserts that balance beauty with indulgence. Every dish is built around seasonally sourced produce, with local ingredients handled with care to elevate pub classics. Drinks are equally considered: local brews with heritage, wines chosen for flavour over fame, and cocktails crafted without fuss. It’s food and drink made to share, savour, and remember.

A Sunday Tradition

The Sunday roast, an age old British tradition, reimagined with a playful nod in our pub. Perfectly roasted meats, spuds with a satisfying crunch, Yorkshires puffed up like proud old hats, and seasonal veg with just the right bite. All bathed in chefs rich, glossy gravy. It’s a meal that feels like a hug from history, comforting, familiar, tasty, but with just enough finesse to keep things interesting. A proper Sunday, done right.

Private Dining & Events

Step into a space that feels personal, intimate, warm, and full of quiet charm. Our private dining is gently lit by day and ambient by evening. It’s a place where courses flow, stories unfold, and laughter lingers between sips of wine. With thoughtful touches and a timeless feel, it’s made for special moments, shared meals, and company that deserves something more.
