FAQ

Table bookings can be made in the pub for lunch, dinner and drinks. Large groups and private hires may be available on request.

In the summer you can take your drinks and food outside to enjoy next to the Millpond; in the winter, draw up a chair and catch up with friends with a glass of our famous mulled wine.

Some bookings may require a card authentication of £10 per person to secure the booking, depending on the group size, type of event or at peak times. No money is taken from your account with a pre-authorisation; money will only be claimed if your entire group fails to show for the reservation.  

Tables are held for up to 15 minutes past your booking time, if you are running late or unable to join us, please let us know as soon as possible.
