The Rusty Gun

You'll find this place tucked away in St Ippolyts, where the kitchen takes pub food seriously without getting precious about it. The menu walks that fine line between classic pub grub and more adventurous dishes that'll surprise you – think elevated comfort food that doesn't forget its roots. The locally brewed beers are the real draw here, paired with food that knows how to complement rather than compete. When the weather's decent, you'll want to grab a spot in the beer garden with a pint and whatever the kitchen's doing well that day. It's the kind of place that works whether you're here for a quick lunch or settling in for the evening.
