About this space

Dining Room - Downstairs is a semi-private dining room in the pub that occupies an enclosed area set apart from the main bar, providing a focused table-based space for groups.

Design: The dining room pairs dark-stained wooden tables and upright chairs with a tufted leather bench, patterned wallpaper and gilt-framed mirrors; street-facing windows supply natural daylight.

Features: The room provides movable tables and chairs to allow simple reconfiguration and direct table ordering via QR code alongside bar ordering for food and drink. The space includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a PA system/speakers, a step-free guest entrance and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Small social groups and colleagues seeking a relaxed, seated meal in a semi-private pub setting.

What sets it apart: A vaulted wooden ceiling gives the room taller proportions than a typical pub dining alcove.

What guests say: The dining room is welcoming and comfortable, and staff deliver friendly, efficient service alongside prompt table-ordering options.

Birthday Dinner · 30 guests · January 2026
We had an absolutely fantastic experience here and cannot recommend the venue highly enough. From start to finish, the staff were outstanding. Attentive without being overbearing, genuinely personable, and consistently friendly while remaining completely professional. They really made us feel looked after. We booked the private room for a group of 30, which was a bit of a tight squeeze, but Martin and his team handled it brilliantly and made it work without it ever feeling uncomfortable. The food was excellent, with a great variety and widely enjoyed by everyone. The quality and presentation were spot on throughout the evening. A special mention has to go to Martin and his team for how flexible and accommodating they were, particularly around our budget, with January thankfully being a quieter month. Nothing felt like too much trouble and they worked with us rather than against us. We were also working to a very short turnaround after a previous reservation fell through, which could have been stressful, but the entire process was seamless. Everything ran smoothly and effortlessly on the night, which was hugely appreciated. An all round brilliant experience with exceptional service. We would happily return and recommend the venue without hesitation.
Nothing!
