You may be too late for the massive curly haddocks that they used to serve, but the portions are still perfectly adequate and just as delicious. With the exquisite Dark Star (almost) always on tap and a setting to match, there is little to fault this secluded gem. With hand cream in the gents, even the Long Man is happy after a day flat out on the hillside.
