Lovely pub with beautiful scenery and absolutely fantastic food. Great choice available on the menu, including childrens menu. All food came piping hot, puddings were to die for, great service by all staff. Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Staying locally we had looked for somewhere to have a Saturday evening meal. So glad we found the Welcome stranger, staff were lovely atmosphere was great and the food was very tasty. So good we returned for Sunday lunch. If you're hungry this is the place to go, portion sizes are very generous.

Stopped by when the a38 was closed due to snow Warm welcome by staff and regulars. Landlady opened kitchen to cook food for me and one other visitor. Excellent homemade curry and good selection of well kept real ales. Can't ask for more from a countryside pub pub. Dog friendly too, Highly recommended, will definitely visited again!

Really good food in a nice environment, with friendly welcoming staff. My dad and me had a rump steak each but we were looking at other food as it came out, and it all looked great. There was a happy buzz of conversation around the restaurant. A very nice experience all in.
