It’s not just the open fires and friendly service that make this such a warm and welcoming pub – the delicious beef fat crumpet and the sticky toffee pudding also help! The traditional building has origins dating back to the 11th century, so it's a place full of character, with the garden also supplying super-fresh produce for the clean, well-executed dishes. While there are more informal 'light' and 'large bites' on offer at lunch, the à la carte is available at all times to show off the kitchen's skills.
