The family-run pub, which has a warm and friendly atmosphere, also has many other treats that you can take advantage of.

As well as a wide-range of beers and spirits at the bar, the pub is also a popular venue for food, notably the carvery.

Landlord, Roger Smith, said: “We have a full and diverse menu so there really is something for everyone and we’ve got stacks of offers which is another huge bonus for the customers.

“We do a small carvery for £3.99 and a large carvery for £7.99. We also do two meals for £10, kids eat free between 3pm and 7pm Monday to Friday and if people look us up online on Facebook there are even more offers to enjoy.

“This is a pub where families can come and relax in lovely surroundings.

“We’re next to the canal, which is really pleasant and we’re well set back from the road, so there’s no noise.

“It’s all safe for the kids too. We’ve got two play areas, an indoor and an outdoor one, and the kids can all enjoy themselves while the adults relax.”

This year businesses have generously offered our readers an array of free goodies, from a pint of lager, scone with cream and jam, sausage roll, judo class, chippy tea and a bacon roll.
