Freshly made sandwiches

Every sandwich is made on white or brown bloomer bread and served with fries and a side salad in honey mustard dressing.

​

Choose from roast pork and apple sauce, beef and horseradish, tuna and red onion, cheddar and tomato chutney, smoked salmon with cream cheese and chive, or haddock goujons with tartare sauce. Sandwiches start at £9.95, and most can be made gluten free.

Jacket potatoes and the Ploughman’s Board

Filled jacket potatoes start at £8, with cheese, beans and cheese, tuna and red onion topped with cheese, or prawn cocktail. All of them are gluten free.

For something heartier, our Ploughman’s Board (£16.50) brings a cheese and onion pasty, a sausage roll, a selection of cheeses, cornichons, side salad and crusty bread.
