Food served until 9pm every day, according to the 2008 Good Beer Guide. The menu looks rather good. Only a few vegetarian choices, but they all look interesting. Sample prices: soup of the day £4; brie, grape, and celery sandwich £4.75; nachos £6; sausage and mash (veggie option available) £8.75; lemon chicken and courgette salad £9.25; steak and ESB pie £8.50. They also offer sharing plates for two (from 5pm-9pm), including a pie tasting plate at £16. (Photos of the menu are available [http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/sets/72157602068061659/ here].) We tried the "lumberjack chips" (£2.75), which were to [[Kake]]'s taste but not [[Martin]]'s, and gained points for having the skin left on but lost them again for being pre-salted <small>([http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/1403338266/ photo])</small>. |

We visited on a Thursday evening. It was quite quiet for a pub so close to a mainline station, but in a good way (no struggle for a table, but not echoingly empty). The good weather probably helped though, as there were a number of people standing outside. The music was extremely cheesy (and not in a good way) and loud enough to slightly impede conversation.
They have a function room with a big screen.
Although there are three steps up to get into the pub, they have made an effort to overcome this problem by putting in a lift to get wheelchairs etc up from street level, and there is a disabled loo. Once you're in the pub, it's all on one level.
