Peartree Bridge Inn

A full roast dinner for £3.59? Seriously?
My friends, I kid thee not.
The carvery at the Peartree Bridge is brilliant value for money — three roast to choose from (normally beef, gammon or turkey) and you can have a selection of all three if you wish. Boiled or roasties, carrots and other veg (seasonal — from sweetcorn to green beans), stuffing and yorkshire puds, not to mention the all important condiments. No, of course it’s no match for The Swan up the road. But you can get three meals here for the cost of one up there. And for a midweek munch, who’s to argue? The queues can be a little long, but you’ll never wait more than 10 minutes for a table nor 10 minutes to get to the front of the carvery queue. Just be aware that the price jumps up on a Sunday, so midweek is probably best.
Also the drinks are pretty cheap (posh cordial for £1 for us drivers) as are the desserts (even cheaper for kids) so for me it can’t be beaten.
I’ll be honest — it’s not a pub I’d take someone if I’m trying to impress them. And the karaōke can pierce your eardrum sometimes. But the staff are always brilliant and it’s perfectly located for a stroll down the canal to walk off your treacle sponge after.
So if you’re looking for a good, honest roast, get yourself to Peartree Bridge!
