Great staff, good atmosphere,poor selection of real ales

Nice clean pub... a bit too 'commercial' to be a true English pub for my liking but I'll most probably pop in for a pint next time I'm in Norton.

Nice place and pleasant bar staff. They let me run up a nice tab

Good food & Great service 👌

We went for a walk with the dogs and called in here for lunch. It was empty except for us, but it was a weekday. Lovely attentive bar person and a good choice of drinks. Quite an extensive menu, but we chose from the lunchtime one. Very tasty fresh food, we would definitely recommend. Dog friendly too, thanks

Worst meal ever had. Fish size for a child. Peas hard chips from supermarket cheap kind. Expensive nothing like it used to be years ago. Wouldn’t recommend anyone to go. Go to local chipy in mill street instead. Really very poor

Staff wonderful, friendly and we had a lovely scampi and chips. Will be back.

Food took an hour to arrive after ordering and the place wasn't busy! The food was nice (loaded chips). In fact we stopped our daughter ordering food because ours took so long to come.

The food was great. Good value. One of the staff was sitting on the counter which was weird🤷🏻‍♀️.

Dec 2019 review. We stopped in again with family for Sunday lunch the weekend after Christmas. Once we figured out what everyone wanted we had to go to the bar to order, no table service there. Unfortunately they only had turkey on for the roast dinner, but they were very accommodating with substituting a steak. We had a mixed array of pies and steaks and roast dinners, the overall consensus was that a lot of the food tasted a bit dry and rubbery, most likely microwaved or our of a bag. After dinner some of us decided to have dessert, they were out of vanilla ice cream so we had to go with chocolate for our chocolate cheesecake. The cheesecake was nothing to write home about, it was kind of warm which really surprised us as it is typically served fresh from the refrigerator. Others decided on the sticky toffee pudding and said that is was cold and they were expecting it to be much hotter. All in all I would say this wasn't our best experience at this pub as far as the food is concearned. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but the food was rather slow coming out and not all at the same time. The bathrooms were not in the best shape and I was informed the ladies was completely out of toilet roll. The gents just had paper napkins of some kind. ***old 5 star review from 2017*** We went here for lunch with family and even though they had the main dining area fully reserved, we were seated fairly fast over near the bar, the tables were pretty small and cramped but we managed. I ordered the giant Yorkshire pudding and sausage, my wife had the haddock and chips, my dad had a steak pie, and my mum had a giant Yorkshire pudding with beef. All food was top notch and everyone was thoroughly satisfied. The staff were all very polite and attentive but didn't hover. Great atmosphere, the place was empty when we arrived but buzzing by the time we left. Will be back next time we're in town.
