Chopstick House

Chinese takeaway

The Palmerston

Pub

👍👍 Great local pub! Always a great atmosphere and the owner and staff are superb. Shame the only downside is the moaning neighbours who moan about it being a pub… despite buying a house next to a pub. Couldn’t make it up

Bishops Wine Bar

Wine bar
