Took my mum for her 89th birthday. The food was lovely, she enjoyed her Sunday roast and the rest of us enjoyed selections from the vegan menu. Lovely pub, good food, friendly staff. Will definitely go back.

Lovely pub with lots of good real ales however our Sunday lunch was disappointing. The pork wasn't a roast as you would expect but 2 pork loin steaks which were overcooked. The beef was overcooked too. Veg was undercooked and roast potatoes were luke warm. There was nothing bad about the meal, all was acceptable, just disappointing. We won't be eating here again.

Lovely building in a perfect location. City centre next to the Cathedral s. The food was perfect, all cooked fresh . Good to visit a real pub and the staff were great. You need to book as very popular.

We had 2 roast pork dinners & 1 steak & ale pie. It was all tasty but the Yorkshire puddings were not nice - heavy & doughy and there was not a lot of steak in the pie. What steak there was, was quite chewy. However, overall, good value

HUGE caterpillar in the salad. Staff very apologetic and knocked off the price of that main dish from the bill. Other main was very tasty. Ironic that caterpillar was on a vegan dish. Otherwise, quite impressed with vegan offerings on menu.

Wish i had not gone on the strength of reviews. The service was weird, the food was bland and tasteless. The vegetarian strudel was microwaved into submission and it couldnt be cut up to eat. When i pointed this out, they claimed it was all freshly cooked. They replaced it without a quibble but the replacement came out quickly and was also microwaved and became harder and harder to cut through as it cooled. Very disappointed. Would definitely not return.

Great food and I as a Coeliac was catered for fully. As we had to eat in the bar area as the quieter restaurant was closed, so if we had been in the restaurant then it would have been top marks all around.

Came on Sunday 21st April for my sisters 30th Birthday. Staff were great and really helpful. As a family of vegan's we were very impressed with the menu. My only complaint would be that The Southern Fried 'Chicken' didnt state that it was Jackfruit, if i had of known this I would have ordered something else, so didnt end up eating the 'Chicken' The Vegan Cheesy garlic bread was a winner all round. We will definitely be back to try other items on the menu

Pleasant place to go to but the food was bland and overpriced. One person had a vegetable curry. Plate is small and they covered half the plate with a piece of flatbread. Puddings were microwaved and very small portions.
