October is here and we’ve got plenty happening over the next few months.

Our new set menu is running too, with 2 courses from £23, alongside our afternoon bar menu and full evening menu.

A little something for families this winter…

As we head into the quieter months, we wanted to do something to make getting everyone together for a meal a little easier.

So from 1st October until 1st March, for every adult main course ordered, one child can eat for just £1.

We’ve put together a small children’s menu with plenty of familiar classic favourites:

• Beef burger & fries
• Chicken or fish goujons & fries
• Passata pasta
• Macaroni cheese
• Sausage & chips
• Kids roast on Sundays

No restricted days and no early dining times. If we’re serving our normal menu, the offer is available.

We don’t want to change what we do or turn this into a big discount promotion. We simply want the pub to remain somewhere you can enjoy a quiet dinner, meet friends for a drink, settle in for Sunday lunch or bring the whole family.

And hopefully, making the kids’ dinner £1 makes those family meals out just that little bit easier through the winter.

The small print: One £1 children’s meal per adult main course ordered. Children 12 and under. Dine-in only. Available from our special children’s menu. Excludes special-event and set-menu services.

1st October – 1st March.

A late bit of summer for this Sunday ☀️🎶

September seems to be giving us one more warm Sunday, and we’re making the most of it.

Sonny Palmer will be playing live from 5pm, as the afternoon rolls into evening and we stretch the weekend out for just a little longer.

Come over for Sunday lunch, stay for a few drinks, or join us later for the music and a warm evening on the moor.

Sunday 27th September | 5pm

Curry Night — Friday 16th October 🌶️🌍

This time we’re taking the menu around the world, with dishes inspired by some of our favourite styles of cooking.

Sri Lankan devilled prawns, lamb kofta and Vietnamese bánh xèo to start, followed by fish kapitan, lamb maafé and chicken jalfrezi — with plenty of rice and naan on the table.

Then three desserts to finish, including Caribbean rum cake and Thai tea crème brûlée.

£38 per person for the full sharing menu.

We’ve only just started taking bookings and it’s already filling up fast, so get your table booked if you fancy joining us.

Good food, plenty of curry and hopefully a cracking night 🍻🌶️

There’s something special about the pub as we head towards Christmas. 🎄

Dark evenings outside, the fires going, a busy bar, tables full of people catching up and the kitchen cooking the sort of food that just feels right at this time of year.

Our Christmas menu is ready, and we’ll be serving it from 28th November through to Christmas Eve.

We’ve kept it true to what we do — seasonal ingredients, proper cooking and plenty of comforting winter flavours, with a little bit of Christmas thrown in.

Whether it’s the work Christmas party, a long-overdue catch-up with friends, or simply getting everyone around the same table before the madness of Christmas begins, we’d love to have you.

2 courses £32 | 3 courses £38

Our normal à la carte menu will be available too, and we’ve got rooms upstairs if you fancy making a night of it.

Before we know it, the decorations will be up, the fires will be lit and Christmas will be in full swing.

28th November – 24th December. 🎄

Get in touch with the team to book your table.
