The Axe celebrates the country pub feel with comfy and cosy corners, large open fires in the winter and a comfortable terrace area for sunny days.

Join us daily for food at the Axe. We have an incredible selection, ranging from light nibbles to hearty mains made from ingredients from the freshest local suppliers. Our extensive menu celebrates the best of British, and as we have Greek heritage we also offer many mediterranean dishes too.
