About This Pub
Ah, South Beach – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a friendly local haunt, you know? From the moment you walk in, the staff are all smiles and eager to make your visit memorable, like when they stepped up during a family emergency – that's the kind of personal touch that really sticks with you. The food's hearty and reliable, with plenty of options from burgers to curries, and it's all at a fair price, making it a great spot for a casual lunch or evening out. Plus, the beer garden is a real winner on a nice day, and they've got live entertainment to keep things entertaining. On the downside, being in an estate location means it might not have that electric atmosphere of a busier spot, and the menu's more about solid pub favourites than anything groundbreaking, so it could feel a tad ordinary if you're seeking excitement. All in all, it's a solid choice for a laid-back catch-up, especially if you're with the family, and I'd say it's worth popping in for a pint and a chat.

Although this is a typical 'estate pub' in terms of its location, it is far better than many. The Food is good and the beer choices are excellent. We often drink the wine and have never had a bad drop.
Came down yesterday for the first time with my family (with 2 children under 5). It is so clear that the ownership understands the needs of families with young kids.
The back outside area of the pub is fenced in, and the inside is all windows - meaning that if your kids want to play outside, you can see them at all times. We ordered food, and the children were served first (something that should really happen in more places!). They also had lots of options for kids food in different sizes (under 5, over 5, and bigger appetites). The kids both loved their food too.
The management was extremely friendly and accommodating (despite us asking a million questions) and made sure we felt looked after.
The food was extremely reasonably priced, with lots of options (the beef dripping and merlot sauce was fantastic).
The atmosphere was great. There were a lot of families with young children, and everyone was chatting and the children were playing together.
Can't recommend enough for families. Decent selection of wine too!
Absolutely cracking pub. Very family friendly and all staff so friendly and welcoming.
Great menu and food was fantastic. Simon the Manager is an absolute star - we had a minor family emergency and he couldn’t have been more helpful, caring and friendly. Definitely be back. Great place.
Very lovely pub, especially in the area as there aren’t many around. The service was quick and the servers were lovely, I went for a family catchup and it was amazingly priced for what we got. The manager was lovely and seemed to welcome everybody in and out which you don’t see much of nowadays. Deffo recommend
Attended a get together here. Food and drink was superb. A great choice of tipple available along with a great manager who took time out to welcome us, creating a great family feel to the place.
