点评:The new owners have absolutely made this place a joy to visit and could not be more helpful, welcoming and eager to please. The pub feels bright and airy once again.
Gone is the stuffy atmosphere and the oppressive feeling that once filled the establishment. Gone is the terrible food which gave the impression of frozen, or microwaved. Gone is the judgement, strict rules and restrictions on things such as dogs.
The food is fantastic, all made lovingly and very well. The sausage rolls and other snacks sat in the bar display cabinet, while often dark-looking, are very good. Don't let the dark pastry put you off! Try them! You won't be disappointed.
The pies that are made are also really very good. The steak and stilton in particular is beautiful, with tender meat in generous chunks, trimmed well with no gristle or fat and a well-balanced ratio of stilton inside that satisfies without leaving you feeling a little queasy.
The clientele seem to have altered slightly too. They are rowdy and rambunctious, but in a god way. Friendly, jovious, up for a laugh without any hostility or malice. And the dogs are always a welcome sight!
The beer garden out the back is a brilliant area, with really nice flower borders and lots of space to chill with access to the play park (Codnor wreck) for kids, as well as the large field adjoining for dogs.
I highly recommend you visit if you are ever in the area, or even if you've been putting it off.
翻译:新老板们把这里变成了一个令人愉悦的去处,他们热情好客,乐于助人,热情好客,渴望取悦顾客。酒吧再次明亮通透。
曾经弥漫在酒吧里的沉闷气氛和压抑感一扫而空。那些让人感觉像是冷冻或微波炉加热的糟糕食物也消失了。对狗狗之类的物品的评判、严格的规定和限制也消失了。
食物非常棒,每道菜都精心制作,品质上乘。酒吧展示柜里的香肠卷和其他小吃虽然通常看起来颜色很深,但味道却非常好。别让深色的糕点吓到你!尝尝吧!你不会失望的。
他们做的派也非常美味。尤其是牛排和斯蒂尔顿奶酪,肉质鲜嫩,块状饱满,切得恰到好处,没有软骨或脂肪,里面斯蒂尔顿奶酪的比例也很均衡,让人吃得满足,又不会让人感到反胃。
顾客群体似乎也略有变化。他们吵闹不休,但又不失绅士风度。他们友善、快乐,乐于助人,却不带任何敌意或恶意。狗狗们也总是那么受欢迎!
后面的啤酒花园非常棒,花坛很漂亮,有很多休闲空间,孩子们可以去游乐园(Codnor 沉船区),旁边还有一大片狗狗活动场地。
如果你有机会来这里,或者你一直在拖延,我强烈推荐你去看看。
