It usually means that what you get will be top class. But if say you don't like venison and want a main meat course, that menu isnt going to float your boat.

Serious selection of beer, including dark arts porter (in bottles only) but they have a rye ale called rust bucket and it's amazing. Good pub. Decent live music too. I'm biased cos I know the owner, but I had fun there. Decent screens for watching the rugby there too.
