Most pubs now employ the best chefs and stock the best wines available. A wide variety of domestic and boutique beers, fine spirits and cocktails also are on hand. They have comfortable indoor and outdoor dining areas, the counter lunch sitting at the bar is a thing of past unless that's what you want, and you're more than welcome to if that's your wish.

On the left are sample menus from some of our member hotels. I have dined in all of these pubs and recommend them all in their different styles.

Good food enjoyment is the aim of all. And good company.

And more to come ! Stay tuned.

And yes, I will be more than happy to receive food reviews from you, the hotel patrons, the truly unsung heroes that make or break your local.
