This pub was my go-to pub before returning to my hotel at night. What a splendid place. Good beer for under a fiver. Good music with live bands on Friday. A feeling of a community pub, not the tourist stuff you find near Whitehall. Thinking of it, it's the pub I wish would exist where I live.

I visited the Forest Tavern for a Sunday roast with my family. The staff was very friendly, especially the tall man with the great moustache. My daughter had a chicken roast, huge portion and cooked perfectly and my wife and I had beef roasts also cooked perfectly. We also shared two desserts, a cheesecake and a sticky toffee pudding. Both homemade and very tasty! Thank you and we will be back!
