The New Inn has an excellent lunch menu, cheery atmosphere, and has a large beer garden for families. Proprietors are Trevor and Joyce Carter, formerly of the Masters Arms, and the Double Century in Slough. There is a good jukebox, pool table, two dartboards, and will be hosting two of the best dart teams in the area this winter. The atmosphere is friendly and homely, and excellent bar meals are on offer in the afternoons.
