Delicious Pub Grub

“During my stay, I had the pleasure of enjoying some of the best pub food I've tasted in a while. The fish, chips, and peas were cooked to perfection, and the scampi accompanied by a fresh side salad was good. Even though the menu was smaller due to the circumstances, the quality was excellent and left me wanting more.” read full review
