I've come here for food and and drinks a few times and it's about time I actually leave an honest review.
If you enjoy food with flavor, this is the place I would recommend as a pub meal out in the local area. The chicken tenders and wings have flavors that I'd compare to the Orto lounge in Evesham, which in one word would be... incredible.
I rarely try the other menu items so today I ventured to Tatertots and my god were they incredible, especially dipped in the sauce that came with the prawns, though they do come with their own sweet chilli dip.
The chicken Gyros was freshly cooked and sliced, served with a completely fresh Salad.
I had the Frankie's Mac n Cheese burger which came with a Jalapeño style sauce which... Well tasted exactly like pressed Jalapeños and not some fake packaged stuff.
Atmosphere is nice too, despite the hot weather happening this summer the staff took our large order and were friendly.
This place is the cheapest place for a pint in the local area so I really would recommend coming here for a family day out, or just for a pint.
Starters are about £4-£5
Meals are anywhere from £10-£20

The Staff were very friendly, the atmosphere was ruined a little with banging upstairs and the food was a little over cooked
