Important Booking Information for Regular Dining:

  • Please make us aware of any dietary requirements. Whilst we will do our best to accommodate dietary needs if informed in advance, please note that it may not always be possible to cater to all requirements due to the nature of our dishes and kitchen setup.

  • Please note that all diners have their table for a set period of time, after which we kindly invite you to continue your evening in our bar or lounge areas.

    1–4 guests

    • 2 hours – Main Menu

  • Diners with dogs are welcome in the lounge area only. Unfortunately, they’re not allowed in the restaurant conservatory. Please get in touch if you’d like to book a table in the lounge area.

  • As all of our food is freshly prepared and home cooked, please allow a little extra time for your meal and in-between courses.

  • Menu items are subject to availability and are served on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure the best selection, we recommend booking an earlier table.

  • Reservations can be made up to 6 weeks in advance.

  • Reservations online are available up to 10 people, if you require a larger group please contact us directly to assist you with your booking as we may require pre-orders and deposits.

  • We are very happy for guests to bring their own birthday cakes to celebrate special occasions. If you would like to enjoy your cake on the premises, a per-person cake corkage fee will apply.

Important information for Event Dining:

Please see booking terms for your event. For the Bottomless Brunches, we require pre-payment with a cancellation of 48hours. Timing is 1.5 hour for the bottomless after which time you will be asked to leave the restaurant. You are welcome to stay in the lounge or bar afterwards to enjoy your time.

  • Cancellation, Party Size & No-Shows

    We understand that plans can change. If you need to cancel your reservation or reduce the number of guests attending, please let us know before the cancellation deadline stated on your booking.

    Our standard cancellation period is 48 hours, however larger parties, event dining and certain bookings may have a longer cancellation period. Please check the cancellation terms provided for your specific reservation.

    Your booking is for the number of guests reserved, not simply for the table itself.

    If fewer guests attend than the number booked and you have not notified us of the change before your cancellation deadline, each absent guest will be treated as a no-show and the applicable deposit/no-show charge will apply per person.

    For example, if a table is booked for 10 guests and only 8 attend, the applicable no-show charge will apply to the 2 absent guests unless the booking was amended before the cancellation deadline.

    This applies to both full and partial no-shows.

    As a small independent venue, we reserve your table and plan our staffing and food preparation based on the number of guests booked. We therefore ask that you keep us updated with any changes to your party size.

    Thank you for your understanding.

  • Please be aware that on Sundays we may have live music in the lounge or garden area which can be heard in the restaurant from 3-5pm approx. We also have the pub quiz from 8pm which can be heard in the restaurant.

  • We are a traditional village pub as well as a restaurant, so you can expect great food, friendly faces and a lively atmosphere.

Thanks for your understanding!
