We went for a Sunday lunch. Warm weather and we sat at a table outside. Attentive, friendly staff. Service was very good. And the pub has a nice atmosphere to it both outside and inside. Spotless, if a little industrial, restrooms. The food was a bit of a mixed bag. Smoked salmon and hash was very good but the porterhouse... More

Our group of seven hungry men descended on The Blue Pub after a day of golf. We were not disappointed The food was excellent, the portions generous and the service very good. We ordered a variety of dishes and everybody was happy.

Hostel accommodation above a pub. Showers very clean and with oodles of hot water, you even get a towel with your room. Slightly pokey kitchen/TV room and room 3 could do with a lick of paint - all standard hostel stuff. Insanely noisy on a Friday night but hey, why are you in your room when the band is downstairs?...

Good comments! We quite agree it can be noisy upstairs on a live gig night so it's a good idea to check our website gig guide before you book to check if there is a band playing when you want to stay. If it's your preference to have a quieter night, plesae let us know and we can try to... More
