Regulars pack the tables for the Sunday roast—served with towering Yorkshire puddings, potato gratin, and roast carrots—or drop by on Thursdays for the twenty-dollar steak paired with rich Diane sauce. An attached bottle shop lets you pluck a bottle of natural wine straight from the shelf to uncork at the table, while the back room keeps the competition honest over games of pool and darts.
