Peter’s Pub
Peter’s Pub is the type of traditional spot where you might be forgiven for expecting that the food menu doesn’t go beyond the classic pub toastie. Thankfully, they’ve also got a sumptuous cheese board that is great for 2 people sharing. While it’s traditional to have a glass of wine with your cheese, a pint of Guinness did us no harm as an accompaniment recently.
