If I could leave 0 star I would. Nick, who worked behind the bar does not understand business nor the idea or decent customer service and for this beautiful pub to thrive you ought to get rid of her. Disgusting character.

Service was fantastic and very nice location. The meals were very nice apart from the chips. They were french fries which were very dry and crispy. However they did provide us with a fresh bowl of chips which were much nicer. Very nice staff and very accomodating.
