We can’t tell you how happy we are to be back open. The joy of having this lovely old building full of people again is hard to put into words…
When we started to think about our new menu, it seemed fitting to consider resurrecting some of the old favourites that people still talked about… a “revival menu!”
A celebration of the pub, the amazing community it has served for centuries, and the ongoing fight to keep a little rural pub in the middle of nowhere alive.
So here it is. Our menu for spring and summer 2024. You will find that Hunters chicken from our original menu nearly ten years ago is back. As is the famous Mammoth burger.
In addition, we have bought back Chicken in a basket from the 60’s. The Fforest was famous, under the helm of Tom and Wynn Lander, as the first pub in the area to offer Chicken in a basket.
So we have decided to launch a “basket” night. Thursday evenings. A choice of four different baskets and a pint or medium wine for just £11.50!
Remember to check out our specials too – they change every week!
