The food is excellent, and correspondingly priced (£9-17 for a main course as of March 2008); evening dishes might include slow-roasted lamb shank with thyme and red wine, served with root vegetable mash; fish stew with halibut, prawns, mussels, and coriander; root vegetable and mixed bean stew with herb mash; or confit of duck with sauteed new potatoes, green beans, and caramelised onion gravy. During a 2007 visit, the menu comprised seven meat dishes, four fish, and two vegetarian. In the evening food is served from 7pm until 9:30pm. On an evening visit in March 2008, the food was very slow to arrive (about an hour in some cases), and a rare steak ciabatta arrived well done, and in a baguette. The quality of the food remained good, however.

Four well-kept Fuller's ales on tap (ESB and London Pride at all times, Chiswick or Discovery and a "guest", normally from the Fuller's or Gales' range) and a longish wine list. A pint of Pride was £2.60 (March 2007). They also do takeaway beer in paper containers that they keep behind the counter. They charge less for takeaway than 'drink-in' beer.
