I had lunch here last year. An excellent meal with good beer, good value for money, prompt service even though it was busy, and lovely views of the Severn! Booking advised as it is deservedly popular.
The building dates from 1750 and has been a pub since 1878. There is lots of atmosphere.
There is NO piped music, I understand this is the owner's policy.

The staff are friendly and efficient, and the proprietor says he has no plans to install piped music because "the customers don't like it".
There is an excellent range of reasonably priced meals and snacks, and the establishment has been awarded the maximum 5 stars in the Scores on the Doors food hygiene scheme.
