Amazing breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. A small menu all freshly cooked. Very busy at the weekends so book first. They run from morning through to 2am and is a great place to hang out with no pressure and conversation-level music. Excellent cocktail bar too, you don't have to have a meal, just spend time at the bar if you like. Very chilled, very popular.

This is our regular Indian haunt. Simple, traditional curry restaurant with extensive menu plus Sunday buffet from noon to 5pm. Eat in quick and cheap or take your time and explore the menu. Their takeaways are good value but you can wait over an hour for delivery as they're so busy. Best to pop over and collect.

Really great modern pub with a traditional attitude towards customers, many of whom are regulars. Free board games, newspapers and un-intrusive tv make this a great place to meet up or hang out alone. They don't sell food so you can take in food from the local take aways.

This pub dates from the 1830s when it was a coach stop. It retains many traditional features of its history and the external Truman signage. It is now part of the giant Wetherspoons chain which serves real ales and a big menu of budget British food. Wetherspoons is known for its consistent quality and very cheap prices. A sort of McDonalds of the pub world. Wetherspoons staff are notoriously young, inexperienced and badly paid so factor that in to your trip.... (Its almost a rite of passage for British youth to do their time at Wetherspoons) but don't let that stop you because it is adequately compensated for in the cheap prices.
