Cavens Arms

$

This lively, welcoming traditional pub in the center of town has a separate bar and dining area, comfortable seating, and a large selection of beers. It's a magnet for locals at dinnertime and always seems to be busy, a testimony to the quality of its food as well as the large portions. Favorite dishes include grilled pork fillet with a white wine sauce, chicken tikka masala, a large range of steaks and burgers, and excellent desserts that are made on the premises. Everything comes in generous quantities. Reservations are advised, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings.
