The Forresters is a family-run pub welcoming everyone, including children and dogs (dogs are allowed throughout the building)

 

We have a French à la carte restaurant with an authentic ambience—serving dishes such as Beef Bourguignon, Magret de Canard, Cheese Soufflé, King Scallops and French-style pastries; book at https://forresters-bar-restaurant-with-rooms.resos.com/booking (restaurant closed Sunday nights, Mondays and Tuesdays). 

 

The bar offers bar meals, local real ales, lagers, ciders (including French cidre), spirits, and a wide selection of wines and sparkling wines by the glass. 

 

Facilities include a Games Room with pool tables, foosball and an arcade machine (available for private hire) and a self-service dog wash.
