The Duke William Matlock

Walk up Church Street towards the parish church and you'll find yourself in a proper local's pub that's been pulling pints and serving decent grub for years. The Duke William isn't trying to be cool or ironic about it—it's just genuinely good at what it does. Dark wood, worn brass, the hum of real conversation: this is where you come to feel like you belong, whether you're a regular or first-timer. Food's solid without being showy, drinks are well-kept, and the staff treat everyone like they've known them for years.
