Been wanting to try this ?alternative? pub for a while. Large car park with plenty of space, no steps or slopes into the bar. Access for buggies, wheelchairs etc should be okay, my mother walks with the aid of a frame and has no issues. Inside the decor is certainly alternative but in a great way, loved it! Plenty to look at, keep you entertained and talk about as you wait for your food or just pass the time. Staff were friendly and welcoming, there was just one guy running the bar, taking food orders and bringing food out; I thought he needed a helper or coworker really. There is a decent bar area with seating or there is more ?restaurant? style seating further back beyond the bar. We chose to sit in the bar area seating which is a mixture of booth and chairs. Dogs are allowed in which is great, there is free Wi-Fi which is good as my mobile signal was very poor. The menu is standard pub food, quite a bit of choice and plenty of options for gluten free. I chose to have the fillet steak cooked medium, I had a starter of garlic bread but chose for it all to come out together. Mother had beef brisket loaded fries, the portion was massive so I had to help her finish it. The steak was perfectly cooked, I chose to have the peppercorn sauce; this was a bit watery and bland. The steak comes with chunky chips, peas, mushrooms, tomatoes and onion rings. For dessert I had the nutty apple crumble with ice cream, it was okay. Overall this is a great venue with acceptable food, friendly staff and awesome decor that will keep you talking and looking all night. Based on this experience I would visit again.

Had to say hello to tiki the grey African parrot,took a while but he did eventually say hello . The staff were so so helpful and the food was excellent ? can?t wait to come again

We were not greeted, acknowledged or given a menu. We had a drink and decided to leave as did not feel welcome. We have been a couple of times before, we thought we would give them the benefit of the doubt but they were as rude as ever. Food was ok when we have eaten there but a tad pricey. We will not be returning.

Stopped at a nearby B&B for the night and was looking for somewhere to eat. A few suggestions were offered, including the Leather & Lace - mention being made that some locals were being deliberately awkward because it was too 'modern' or different. As a non-local and not awkward, we decided to try it out. Well, quirky decor added a lovely touch and a friendly ambience brought it together. Being a Friday night it was busy, however a table for 2 was managed for us with a smile and without undue delay. We had a great meal and nejoyed our evening immensely.

If you like this place you have to question your taste. Honestly what have they done too this lovely old pub. Had a pie, would rather eat a delicious cream pie.

I rang to book a table for 4 people for today, Sunday. So on previous experience I was REALLY looking forward to a Sunday roast. Had been there twice before and it was really good. Got there. Carpark had a few cars, walked in said we had a table booked and got some drinks. Alarm bells went off when the barmaid picked up some preprinted menus. We went over and sat down and I then asked where were the Roast on the lists - stopped doing them 2 weeks ago. "We have pies" I was told!!! No one told me when I booked so I was a bit miffed to say the least. We had our drinks and went to the King William for a traditional Sunday roast. Wont be going back!!!

One of the nicer places I have visited in my time come here with some friends of ours and we had a really nice meal. The staff were very nice and friendly and the atmosphere was great. The food was of excellent quality and you couldn't fault it. The drinks were a bit over priced then most pubs and restaurants in the area and the limited dessert menu was a bit of a let down but other than that you can't fault the place as a whole. I am sure we will return soon for another nice meal in the wacky decorated place.

Had lunch with a freind ,have been here a few times since refurbishment, American style decor has grown up me. I chose a burger delicious but iv had the same at other pub for less money,good choice off drinks and food and u can have sw or breakfast from the pit stop cafe. I love the opening hours as most pub and cafes in the area have very restricted opening hours. I love the decor but just feal chargeing restaurant price ,for pub sevice. But still a nice venue

We visited here for an evening meal and were amazed at the original approach to the place. There is so much to see and enjoy. The staff, Elles andLel were extremely friendly and attentive, and the food was prompt and to a great standard. We would highly recommend this to anyone.

A wonderful evening with beautiful food, brilliant staff and a great atmosphere. Served by Elles and Lel who were friendly and attentive. A varied and interesting menu catering for all tastes. Would highly recommend a visit whether for a meal or just a relaxing drink in their stunning beer garden.

We were visiting friends and decided to go to leather and lace. Arrived in good time only to ask where to sit .. ?I will take your order in a minute? 40 minutes later I went to ask for our order to be taken. All the time the owners and some bar staff drinking and enjoying themselves. Another hour later we got our food , ok it was alright but the services was terrible. If I was not with friends I would of walked out long before. As for the decor ? the place goes not know what it is .. in my view it wants all re done .. load of rubbish In short don?t bother
