    The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious and drinks were great too! As it was our anniversary, we were given complimentary glasses of prosecco which were greatly appreciated! Lovely pub with a lovely atmosphere and an even better view - will definitely be back soon :)

    The food was cooked to perfection, our dog was made a fuss of. We were attentively served but not rushed. A great meal.

    Friendly welcome, we had the Sunday roast, so tender and delicious, on another level to a roast we had in St Ives last year, and that was good. Great service, food and beer.
