A pleasant local pub with friendly staff. The roast lamb was very good, but the fish pie was not the best, a bit runny and lacking in decent fish chunks. £24.50 for a bottle of wine.

Great pub with a proper menu if proper pub food for reasonable prices, catered very well for GF. The food was very nicely presented for pub food, great value. Will highly likely to return.

4 of us had a meal and a few drinks at this pub, the meals was ok at best I had sea bass which was only 2 smallish bits about 3? x 2?and hardly anything else, a few sliced spuds and a bit of green . I had a pudding because the meal was so poor and I had a cheese board which was £10.95 and even that was small. I have a loads of cheeses boards in my life, which have had much more food for less money. Theirs were 3 bits of small cheese, 8 crackers & red grapes and some very old celery which was brown on one end, we complained and they replaced it with 2 even small bits. Also, how can you have 2 different prices for a large wine one was 8.99 and 11.50 all of us rated the meal around 5 out of 10 very poor. WE WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN.

Excellent food, friendly and efficient staff, good menu choice and a nice atmosphere, what's not to like!
Prices are about average for pubs in the area but food and service are a cut above, so overall it?s very good value.
I chose the liver and bacon and my wife a curry, both were excellent and I rarely say that about a pub curry. I had a taste and it was as good as any Indian restaurant.
The portions are not huge but certainly enough, after all you must leave room for one of the delicious desserts. We both had the cheesecake with pistachio ice-cream, yum yum!

An excellent little pub! The food is delicious, the staff are all very friendly and helpful, and it?s great that there?s an outside space to sit and that it?s a dog-friendly pub.
I?ve eaten at the Saxon Arms a few times now, this time I had the fish pie but the ham, egg and chips is another favourite. This was my first time having a sticky toffee pudding and it was absolutely delicious! ?
The coeliac in our group was very pleased to see so many gluten free options for her too, it?s not often you see so much choice for those with a gluten free diet. There were plenty of vegetarian options too.
Overall, it was a really lovely meal (always is) and we will definitely be back again soon! ??
