The Duck or Grouse

Your Local For The Week

The kitchen does proper pub food without being precious about it — burgers, fish, a roast on Sundays, kids’ menu that doesn’t taste like an afterthought. Dogs are welcome at most tables, kids in their own corner if they fancy crayons, and there’s a beer garden the moment the sun gets going. There’s a pool table and a dartboard for slow afternoons, and on the right kind of evening someone gets a guitar out.
