What a superb, charming, amazing and authentic hidden gem! Michael and his team are outstanding! Tasty food , wonderful vibe and such incredible selection of drinks. Well worth going from one end of town to the other, and again, and again, and again…. Keep up the good spirits! See you hopefully very soon again and well worth booking the tastefully decorated , quirky rooms to stay the night ! T

All the rooms look fabulous in the photos but beware, none of the rooms has a bathroom and toilet as the photos seem to show. I booked for 6 nights but couldn't stay. Bathrooms and toilets are shared

The review is for the bar only. We went here spontanously after a canal walk. There were no non-alcoholic drinks on the menu, but I got a nonalcoholic cocktail on request. It tasted so good that I got a second one. My friend had some beers and seemed happy too.

We booked a room for two nights. We booked for two guests. The bed was so small that it was really difficult to get sleep. The bathroom was common outside not en-suite. The service for the rooms was really bad. Our room cups were not cleaned even at check in. We were told that the cleaners would be cleaning the room the next morning but that also was not done and all tea cups beds etc were left untouched. There was no one to collect the keys at checkout and no instructions to drop the keys. My son stays close by so eventually the keys will reach them but for any other guest the keys would never be returned. Really not worth the price and would rather book a hostel at these prices which are better equipped.

Rooms 5 star is actually for the food, to be specific their Sunday Roast. I can see their ethnically Chinese chef did a wonderful job here, I’m not gonna lie, this is my favorite roast dinner so far in the UK, it’s just amazing, I can easily taste how he used some traditionally Chinese cuisine cooking skills and method from the roast, and it’s just made everything to another level. Well done chef! Service has more potential though, I would love to see the guys behind the bar being more proactive such as passing me a menu after I sit down so I don’t have to come over asking for one after a while. Hence 3 stars for the service. Another good thing about this pub is that they have a decent collection of whiskey there. And I had a fun quiz night, which i didn’t expect.
