About This Pub
Ah, The Bridge – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From what I've gathered from folks' chats online, it's got this fantastic selection of drinks, and that Guinness is a real standout, making it ideal for sinking a pint with mates after a long week. The staff are absolute stars, always friendly and making everyone feel right at home, which really sets the tone for a relaxed evening. Food-wise, the Sunday carvery comes highly recommended – it's hearty, well-priced, and a solid option if you're after a traditional meal, though do keep in mind there might be times when choices are a bit slim, like if they're out of pork, which could put a damper on things for some. Overall, it's a welcoming spot with outdoor seating that's great for families, and plenty of entertainment like pool, darts, and live sports to keep the energy up. If you're heading out for a casual night or a bite, it's worth a visit, but maybe check ahead on the food front to avoid any surprises.

Best pint of Guinness in the area by a country mile. Very friendly staff and all the locals seem to enjoy themselves
1st ever visit, Sunday Carvery we were going for. Didn't do Pork they do Turkey, Gammon and Beef. I was very disappointed so I opted for scampi and chips. My friend opted for the Carvery, we placed order and when my friend went for her Carvery I heard the chef mentioning that they had Pork on instead of Gammon. Would of been a good idea to put a sign to say what meats were on offer that day. It looked very very appetising. The scampi was very pale and soggy needed cooking a little longer (tastless) and the chips were ok, just as well a very small portion. The sticky toffee pudding and Ice-cream was very nice indeed. If we ever go back I will have the Carvery no matter what! The place was very quiet looked like the chefs family having a meal and a single elderly man, then when he left two young women came in. The Disabled toilet /Baby changing room was locked, had to use lady's toilets. Don't know if you need to get the key or if it was out of order.
