Disabled facilities
We have full disabled access including a disabled loo and disabled parking. Please don't hestitate to ask if you need any assistance.
Children and minors
Whilst primarily an adult's environment, children are welcome in areas away from the bar, although the pub is not very suitable for babies and toddlers in the evenings. We have changing facilities and some high chairs available.
Dogs
Dogs of the well behaved and 'on-the leash' variety are welcome in the bar area.
If you are planning on bringing your dog, please call us to make your booking and let us know, as these tables will be around the bar only, which aren't available to book online.
Pay and Display car park
There is a Pay & Display car park next to the pub which is a private car park owned by the Calthorpe Estate.
The car park is charged at £1 per hour and can be paid for at the meter or via the RingGo app.
The Ringo app can be downloaded here location number 33608 car park location '30 High Field Road'.
Service
First off, life revolves around the bar, so that's where to head for drinks, menus and to find out where you're sitting if you've booked.
If a table isn't reserved you're welcome to sit at it and have a bite to eat or drink. If you can't find a table, ask and we'll try to find one for you.
Food ordering:
Inside - someone will pop over and take your order. Outside - please find a table, note its number and then order at the bar when you're ready.
Bookings
We do take bookings, but we try to make sure that there is room for customers who are not able to book in advance, so if you have not made a reservation, it's not the end of the world. If there are no tables free we run a waiting list.
Please make bookings by calling or using our online bookings calendar link at the top of the page. Unfortunately we are not able to take bookings via email or facebook.
We don't reserve any of our outside tables so if you enjoy a little alfresco dining these are on a first come first served basis.
Private dining rooms
We have two private dining rooms that will each seat approximately sixteen people.
Weddings
We are afraid we are unable to accommodate wedding parties or functions.
