We called in here a week ago on a Thursday night, quiet but nice atmosphere, the food was good, quick to come to table and we sat watching the boats go by on the canal. Few locals in but mostly boaters off the canal. Would think it is very popular in summer with canal trade. Food was good value for... More

We were rather puzzled at the description of fish cakes. We asked the waitress who reported to the chef. She returned saying the fish cakes were bigger and... More

Visited recently for a meal with friends and overall was impressed and would recommend a visit. The menu is interesting and varied with the pie proving very popular. After polishing off a portion I can see why. A good range of deserts was offered, from which the lemon meringue cheesecake was excellent. To balance things slightly the starters seemed a... More

Beautiful building running along side the canal. Nice restaurant with outside seating and part of the restaurant has comfy sofas in font of a roaring log burner, just the place to warm up after a nice walk along the canal and read the papers! Good choice of starters and mains, too full to manage any sweets and that was after... More

I really like "The Dusty" even more now that it's been re-vamped. The menu is more interesting with plenty to choose from, the food is well cooked and the service is friendly and appropriate, but additionally, it has a better atmosphere and a much improved bar area than before. There's no point going into detail about the menu as you... More

We went for an evening meal on a Travelzoo deal that was excellent value for money. The food was excellent and the service very good. We were never made to feel that we were on a voucher deal which some places do which we never re-visit because of this. The only blip was that we never got the chance to... More

Having lived locally to this pub for over 14 years had never visited until that last few months and can now say is now my favourite destination for food! Having visited a few times with my partner and friend more recently we have never been disappointed with the food. In particular my partner is hard to please and fill with... More

We went for lunch on a Tuesday and found the dusty Miller to be fairly quiet but with enough people dining to make for a nice relaxing atmosphere. My Welsh Black Beef steak was superb, one of the best steaks I can remember having in any restaurant. Excellent real ale and very good wine complemented the food and the good... More
