    Try the Pond Water ale and definitely eat the Bao from Baby Bao. They do meat free Monday's with excellent vegan Bao. The pork Bao is on point as is most of the menu. Vegan or not it's all super tasty

    Renovated with a new kitchen. Amazing bao buns and korean wings. A strong rotation of craft beer.

    Such a lovely pub! Great range of craft beers and an amazing food menu full of baos and other Chinese inspired goodies. We tried the duck chips, tofu and catch of the day bao bun – all delicious.

    New ownership and with that finally some proper quality beers. Food is Bao Buns stuffed with a flavour of your choice from the menu.

    We had a selection of bao. Extremely tasty but bigger than we thought. 2 per person or 3 to share was enough.

    I did like this place until they gave me an overpriced bao with a chicken wing in it. Fools. Brisket bao was alright tho
