What can I say. Absolutely incredible. Currently sat having dinner and the food is amazing, The Ultimate Railway Burger is out of this world, lovely and jucy and the season fries are to die for. My wife had the salt and pepper chicken with the thaiwaneese seasoning knocker her socks off. My daughters fish and chips was so big she couldn't finish it. Absolutely highly recommend to all. Very reasonable pricing to..

A really lovely Victorian pub just in the city centre. The food was excellent and complimented by friendly and welcoming staff. It's definitely worth a visit if you like a proper old pub with great food and service. Would be more than happy to return.
