Went to the game set menu night, food was beautiful and really tasty. service was great, had wine pairing with one of the courses and it was really lovely. the pub it self is really cosy inside. and we thought it was good value for what we got, left full and happy. my only note would be that maybe wanted a bit more of a description/run down of each course but that is really splitting hairs because we all really enjoyed ourselves.

Excellent service, so welcoming, foreseeing our needs before we even thought of them. Considerate of children and our dog too. There was a good selection of games available. I had a lovely gluten free meal after a quick browse of the allergy menu and the chef came up with something delicious. The candlelight in the evening created atmosphere and could hear lots of locals as regulars as well as a few holidaymakers. We will be back, we do need to finish our monopoly game!

We searched for somewhere to eat on open table and booked the plough based on being able to get a Sunday roast amongst other choices, overall was really good. The food was so tasty probably one of the best roasts I’ve had in a long time aren’t local as we’re away for a weekend and had no idea what it would be like just went off the reviews and stars. The only down side was sitting there for quite a while before our orders were taken and a booking that arrived after us having their order taken before us and their meal therefore arriving first bit that is perhaps not picking. The starters were really tasty as well. We wouldn’t definitely return and highly recommend.
