Neil & Louise Hitchen took over this village pub in January and have made a big difference to it. Out went the piped music for starters. It serves bar meals, and has a small restaurant and the food is excellent. I was most impressed by the fact that the bars were quite full when we arrived for a meal and was very busy when we left (no need for piped music)

The Stockpot in Panton St, just off Piccadilly has been since the 1950s a legend in its own lunchtime (dinnertime and breakfast time) for its efficient, friendly service, cheap food and music-free atmosphere. But, alas, no longer. Earlier this year, it changed hands. The friendly informality has gone, the prices have gone up and background music has been introduced. Sadly, avoid!
