👍👍 Fantastic pub, 7pm on a Friday and it's rammed.
Great selection of beers to choose from. As it was fish night I had fish and chips the portions were a very good size and well done.
TIP. If you want to eat book in advance, you will find a table with your name on arrival.

The Reform Inn

👍👍 We've been here a few times in the past, and the food is always so tasty. I'm on a mission to try more and more stuff every time we go.
The chicken Stilton and the cheese and leek bake are definitely my favourite foods here. Both are so amazing and just melt in your mouth.

The staff team was kind and helpful, always clearing our table and refilling out water.
Overall this restaurant is perfect for anyone looking for a...
