The Adelphi
The Adelphi is an old school Victorian pub where Sunday Roast is as traditional as they come. Expect hearty portions piled high with all the trimmings, crowned with their homemade Yorkshire puddings and red wine jus. We highly recommend saving some room for dessert as their sticky toffee pudding is to die for!
