Bar service is now allowed, although we will carry on providing table service if customers prefer. Our staff will continue to wear masks, and we recommend that our patrons do the same, and continue to register their details with NHS Test and Trace.
If you're looking for a table in the restaurant or the beer garden, we recommend booking in advance to be safer. The main bar, however, will remain available for walk-ins. If you fancy a special treat, you can also use our online booking form to make enquiries for afternoon tea from Monday to Saturday afternoons!
Finally, we'd like to thank all of our customers who have supported us over the last year - it's great to have you back!
We're now offering our brand-new afternoon tea menu, by advance booking only, from 1pm until 5pm every day from Monday to Saturday. Just click on the link below and select 'Afternoon Tea Enquiry' to get started!
