Nice pub in Clifton tucked away in a alleyway. Usual pub menu and drinks. Food was good and staff friendly and helpful. Prices towards higher end of scale but still worth a visit in lovely Clifton.

I came in with my family to your lobster night a couple of weeks ago, the food was very good the pork belly bites were a particular standout on the starters. Staff and company were extremely accommodating, Seb looked after us all very well, excellent attitude. Will be back for your next lobster evening 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Highly Recommend Wow! Went here for our last meal in the UK before heading home and it was a delightful experience. The mainfloor had two fire places warming the insides along with some nice electric heaters in the outer wing. The weekday starter and main for £23 is a winner. We had the smoked trout and the soup of the day (cauliflower and ginger) and both were outstanding. The smoked trout was cut nicely w the onion and citrus fruit. The soup was delightful, especially when i spooned it onto the buttered sourdough bread, sooo good :) I HIGHLY recommend the pork chop if itz on the menu. My god it was AMAZING! Perfect fat and char profile and the sauce! OMG! Just took it to another level. Listen... I've had a huge pork chops in the past, but this one was by for the best. As my last meal in the UK for Jan. 2026, the best one, for the balance and the price. Fabulous. Chef Jamie take a bow, I loved it. The others had the cheese burger and the gnocchi but we all agreed the pork chop was the show stopper.

Lovely pub with a real community feel. Food was good and reasonably priced with the smoked trout being a definite highlight (and one of the best dishes I had in a long time). The place seemed a bit hectic though with a long wait to place an order, parts of order being forgotten or food being delivered to tables nearby. Will give it another go!
