Just popped in for a pint and to see the refurb. It has been done well. Mid afternoon quite a few in. I think they have tried to fit too many tables in though. Navigating your way through was a bit tight - could be an issue once alcohol in the mix.

Pre booked a large table of 10 with a high chair. Arrived and were put in the furthest end of the eating area with barely any access for a pram and no high chair. No problem I can carry my own. Upon ordering food got told 45 minute wait, didn’t understand why when it wasn’t too busy. Staff members sat down on the bar, we were there 2-3 hours and the only time the tables around us were cleared of the dirty food/plates was when I told a staff member who was that really rude and said ‘I’ve only just come in’. Food came out luke warm kids meals were last out which unusual kids weren’t pleased. Dishes weren’t cleared after we had eaten ordered 2 kids ice creams and an adult pudding and waited that long we ended up cancelling them, told 2 members of staff we had to leave (we had children with us) and still got charged for the puddings. Ended up buying ice creams from the sweet shop next door. Picture attached is the bar as we were leaving after I’d told staff the tables around us were dirty. Worked in hospitality all my life never seen anything like this
