This restored 18th century pub has gained a reputation of being the quintessential British pub that stretches far beyond the shores of the Isle. On the blackboard, the menu changes every day proposing seasonal dishes concocted with fresh local products, vegetables, fish or meat. Wine is served by the glass and they have their own beer on tap as well, including a variety of ales. It’s best to get a reservation.
