Frequently Asked Questions- Can I book a table online?
- Yes, you can book online using this website.

- Booking is recommended, but you can take your chances and just turn up, but if we have no availability then unfortunately we will have to turn you away :(

- Whilst we do allow children on the premises, children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult and we ask that the adult supervises their behaviour.
- What if I don't turn up for my booking?
- We understand that sometimes peoples' plans change, all we ask is that if you can't make it, you go online, or call us, and cancel the reservation then someone else may get a chance to book, nobody liikes a welcher, so do the right thing!!

We pre booked our table and had the window stools. Great afternoon sampling some of the many beers available on tap. So many more to choose from from the fridges. Something for everyone! Thoroughly recommend a visit if you are into quality beers and ales.

Didn’t sample food so couldn’t comment but everything else was of an extremely high standard. The Red Elephant is a great place to sample good quality beers in a relaxing atmosphere.
