A849

From the outside it wouldn't be hard to miss that you're standing in front of a bar.  Inside, there's the bar section that does look like you'd expect your small village Pub to look like, but there's also a dining room (that from all accounts is jamming during the Summer) that looks more like a modern(ish) cafeteria.  An enigma all in all, I think. 

It's order at the bar (a very small bar right in front of the door), so no Server to keep us company.  The bartender was friendly enough to us and extra friendly to a couple who came in just as we were finishing up but after the kitchen had closed.  They were disapointed and hungry, but not cranky.  The bartender said she might be able to get them soup (which she was) which made the couple so happy.

The menu was very much a bar menu and surprisingly none of the Seafood we'd seen just about everywhere we'd been (or checked out their menu) appeared.  Maybe there's a different menu during the busy season?  We were able to find something to keep us going and have no reason to complain with it's quality.

Our meal went a little something like this:

• McEwans (blue)
• McEwans (red)
• Crispy Chicken on Baguette - surprisingly good bread, chicken that's actually chicken
• Crispy Chicken with Chips - yep, same chicken that's on the sandwich

I admit that this wasn't our first choice (and if time prevailed) wouldn't have been our second either.  It provided us a place to sit down and have a non-Subway type lunch (not that Subway was an option in this small village and we ulitmately had a sandwich) with a beer and a fireplace.  Not what we thought we'd be having when we started the day, but we could easily have been eating crisps and a candy bar instead.

Stay JOLLY!
