Sunday dinner was very nice today but at £20 for a pork chop (all beit a lovely cooked one) a few vegetables and 3 tiny roast potatoes seams overly priced.Just home and still hungry!.Unfortunately I won't be returning again purely on cost and the portion size alone.

The staff were attentive and provided a good level of service. I didn't have a starter in preparation for the 'George mixed grill', and while the food tasted good, there wasn't much of it... so a little disappointed given the price, but I have a big appetite.

Haven't been here for a bit so had lunch with a mate of mine there today.Pre booked but I reckon you'd be alright if you just rocked up.If I was gonna be hyper critical, fried eggs with the brunch not poached as on the menu but not a show stopper for me and I didn't mention it either.I reckon it's a nice place for lunch and priced OK.Happily recommend it and may give Sunday lunch anther go soon too.I wish the team there every continued success and for their new project - The Old Lion ag Newbold which I am still to visit.Malcolm ClarkeRugbyOctober 2024

We did a family cooking demonstration with Hari, what a lovely couple of hours! Hari was very engaging, very informative and as well as great cooking tips we heard some fascinating stories of his upbringing in India. Thoroughly recommend the experience for anyone, the the curry was really wonderful afterwards as well (the cocktails also!)
