Solid neighborhood pub with great staff
The Willow Tree is the kind of pub that feels like it belongs in the neighborhood – not flashy, just solid. You'll find real ale drinkers happy here with their cask ales, and the food is decent enough for a pub lunch. The chicken tacos and sausage rolls get mentioned repeatedly in reviews, which tells you they're doing something right.
What really sets it apart is the staff. Multiple reviews mention how welcoming and helpful they are, especially when hosting events. Whether it's a casual drink after work or a family celebration, they seem to go the extra mile. The garden is a nice touch for warmer days, and having facilities like free WiFi and a dartboard means there's something for everyone.
It's not perfect – some reviewers mention the TVs can be loud during sports, and the furniture is pretty standard pub fare. But for a local pub that serves its community well without trying too hard, it's a reliable choice.
