"Just shared a lovely lunch with my Ramblers group. Great venue. All of the meals were delicious, whether a full lunch or a light bite. Caring and efficient service from the staff. Thank you."

Carol Reynolds

"Wednesday 18 September 2024 6pm - four of us, plus 3 dogs, celebrating my granddaughters 18th birthday. Her first time ordering drinks! The bar staff acted appropriately, they asked her for ID before wishing g her a happy birthday.
The food is always excellent at the Stirrup Cup - a starter of chicken strips - then four different meals, all generous portions and served hot.
Our dogs are always welcome here, which makes it our go-to local pub."
