Surprisingly excellent food, as the pub is a bit scruffy from outside. Hot real fire, nice easy menu. Fish and chips and the homemade steak pie with jug of proper gravy were the best we've had in a while. Will come back for the carvery on Sundays for sure.
2022 Friendly local pub. No ale on draught but got some in bottles 2023 update, Ubu pure on tap, a solid 3.5 out of 5, high praise from me! Quiet this late in the season on a Thursday at 13:00h, the owner is friendly though and the kitchen is open nonetheless. Busier Thursday Friday and Saturday nights with special events such as Halloween fancy dress (see their Facebook page ;-) ).
What a find! When holidaying in the area we always return to this great pub and restaurant. A fantastic family run place with the right mixture of everything. We loved the Saturday music summer session and we weren’t the only ones! It’s clearly very popular with holidaymakers and locals alike. The new menu brought us even more choice than before and we all enjoyed our meals. The staff were friendly and helpful and seemed genuinely happy to work here.
Wow, what a lovely place! We, a family of 4, had the Sunday roast and it was perfection. We all tried a different meats and the sides and sauces were delicious. One of the best roasts we've ever had. The chef was helpful and talked about the cooking process also! Also it's great that little ones can get a baby bowl of roast alongside their parents. As for the pub, it's decorated very cosily in a prime location opposite the beach and with ample parking. Another commendation to the staff, they are very welcoming and helpful. We only booked our table 30 mins before and they responded to every message. The landlady was present talking to lots of customers and the place has a very upbeat friendly atmosphere. Will def return, we loved it.
A beautiful example of what pubs used to be in the best way - friendly staff, honest food, and decor that gave me a flashback to my childhood. This is the opposite from a gastropub. We came for Sunday lunch without a booking and they fitted us in. The food was tasty, was it the most amazing Sunday roast I’ve ever eaten? Maybe not (however the roast potatoes were simply amazing), but it was a decent, tasty carvery with good meat and staff who obviously cared about food and making their customers happy. Strongly recommended for the experience and atmosphere.
