This is an excellent pub. The food is delicious and the surroundings very pleasant indeed. We have had several very enjoyable lunches there. Sadly, today our lunch was marred by an incredibly noisy table and we were seated on a very cramped table right nearby. When I asked if we could be reseated, there was no other feasible alternative for my elderly mother than where we were seated. A quiet word with the noisy crowd from the landlord might have been a good idea in retrospect. If we do go back we will be sure to ask for a more secluded spot well away from the main area where larger parties are seated so that we are more likely to hear each other!
