Matteo's been busy in the kitchen since 6am today, baking, prepping, and generally working his culinary magic ready to serve you some delicious food this weekend!

For the rest of this half term week, we are open...

Friday: 12pm to 10pm (food 12pm to 7.30pm)

Saturday: 12pm to 11pm (food 12pm to 7.30pm)

Sunday: 12pm to 8pm (food 11pm to 5.30pm)

As always, we strongly advise booking in advance as our kitchen is small, all of our meals are cooked to order by one chef, and we hate turning people away!

Happy birthday, Matteo! Landlord, chef, brewer, dad, husband, cheesemaker, and general legend.

I'll do my best to keep him out of the kitchen/brewery/yard/shed today and make him take an actual day off! Wish me luck!

New beer alert!

We've just put on our first cask of 'Quarryman's Mild', ready for the bank holiday weekend.

It's rich, dark, earthy, warming, and a real taste of tradition. Get it while you can!
