Yesterday we unfortunately lost power right at the start of service, so we were unable to serve our Roasts as usual. Apologies to everyone we had to turn away 💚
We hope you have managed to rebook and we look forward to welcoming you 🍽️ The power issue has been resolved 🔋
To those customers who stayed yesterday for a drink thank you 🙏🏼 we hope you could enjoy our head chef’s innovative idea to cook our homemade sausages on the open fire 🔥
We’re getting in the spirit 👻
One of our lovely farmers has donated pumpkins 🎃
to decorate our bar 🍺
Did you know we have paranormal investigations? 🔎
We’ve been certified as a haunted location!
Two of our most notorious ghosts include a drummer boy from the 17th century 🥁 and a traveller crushed by the Earl of Barrymore’s coach in 1788 🐴 🎩🧳

Ask anyone about their earliest pub memories & they go all dreamy. They'll recall the smell as they walked in, the clink of the glasses as the barman loaded the washer, the cost of the drinks which is always a WOW! to a teenager. They'll remember pretending they were an expert on all things beer, cider or the ubiquitous "snake bite". They probably didn't even like the taste at first (although they'd never have admitted it), but those early experiences are etched as deep on their minds as any behind the bike-shed experience.
Then, when they met their current partner where did they go for those early nights out? Where did they get introduced to his or her best mates? Where did they go to celebrate after their engagement, or to toast the arrival of the first born? Where did they go with their Dad when he wore his "best" jumper to drink to his retirement, and/or their Mum when she "just put a bit of lippy on" to celebrate her birthday?
And where else can they chat with old Ted, who once took 6 for 11 for the local team? Or Brian who still holds the record for 37 goals in a season which he did in the league & cup winning team of 1978? Not just chat either, buy the old fellas a beer, paying them some respect too.
See, pubs teach us about life. They matter.
Reopening on 12th April.....

Dearest pilgrims,
Our doors are open, fires are roaring, our chefs are a’cooking, wine is mulling and our cats are warming your seats. It’s business as (semi) usual at The Royal Standard of England and we are so looking forward to welcoming you over the Christmas period. Do get in touch if you’d like to book a table - 01494 673382.
Meet Bobby. Though he’s not ours (he’s our local farmer’s right-hand man), he’s here everyday. He calls it a day when he’s had enough attention from all the staff, our lovely customers (and when he’s full of our homemade sausages), then takes himself down the lane home. We absolutely adore him and he’s very much a part of the furniture as well as YOUR experience here at The Royal Standard of England.
