I used to be a regular at this establishment and still go now but not quite as often as I used to,
THE GOOD POINTS
Food reasonably priced and tasty.
Drinks reasonably priced too and not a bad pint.
Reasonable decor.
THE BAD POINTS.
Can get very busy especially on a weekend and it's quite hard to get served sometimes.
Toilets are disgusting the floor is generally covered in urine(the Gents at least).
Some of the staff seem to have a bit of attitude, however some of the members of staff are really pleasant.
SUMMARY.
I still go to this establishment because frankly it's a cheap pint and quite a good pint too! -

The one star is for the poor staff working in Christmas Day. The food was awful, supposed to be a Christmas Day lunch costing £40 each. We may as well have chucked the money away as didn't eat the food. It was dry, unappealing, unappetising, raw in some parts, overdone in others. My nut roast was served with a tomato sauce on a Christmas dinner! Husbands steak was barbecued, daughters turkey was dry. Stuffing, roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding were clearly frozen ones. What a waste of money.

A big bold pub which stand pretty much on the main crossroads in Marton/Nunthorpe area. It's also right next to the Tesco Garage.
This pub is always full, I've never known it to be empty except maybe some Sunday early afternoons when theres no football match on.
Anyway as far as pubs go as its quite central in Marton, its a big gathering point as theres lots of houses nearby. Most days its full of groups of older adults and on nights there are a few younger adults gathering before they head into town.
The pub has indoor and outdoor seating and the outdoor seating is pretty nice in summer but theres not much of it so you have to grab a table quick.
The pub serves nice meals, not sure what time until but they have deals on like 2 for 1 with certain deals. We've also been for Sunday lunch which is really nice.
It's a really open pub with some corners you can hide away in if you want (like me who goes to watch the football and doesn't really support it so I just sit in the corner and pretend to know what I'm on about).
Also, there's an Itbox! Oo but it's always taken so you have to pounce if you want it and for those of you who've never experienced the wonderful addictiveness of the Itbox, find a pub, whack in your 50p and give it a shot, I can guarantee you'll have spent at least £6 and fallen out with at least one friend by the time you've finished and still want another go ha ha. There are also some fruit machines next door to the Itbox.
As far as prices go, it's not too bad, but not exactly cheap either. The pub is a big open plan room with the bar in the middle.
