Overview

The Waggon Inn is partly in an old building and the owners have done well to adapt it to make it accessible.

Transport & Parking

4

Although the venue does not have its own car park, there is a public car park just outside.

Access

4.5

The entrance is level and there are quite a few tables also on the level. Where there has probably been a step in the past it has been smoothed over by making a very small ramp. There is also a seating area up a few steps. These are clearly marked with hazard tape and, impressively, there are metal grips attached to the pillars at the top of the bannisters to help those who are less able.

Toilets

4

The toilet is down a small step - perhaps a couple of inches, if that. Again, this has been clearly marked with hazard tape. Once in the toilet there is a short slope up, probably to eliminate a former step. This was fine, though you had to be careful not to roll down backwards by mistake. There is enough room for a wheelchair user and assistant, though it's a bit tight. There is a drop down rail on one side and a horizontal rail on the other.

Staff

Coping well on a busy evening. Happy to let me investigate the accessible toilet before we decided to eat there.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

The pub had a number of reserved tables but staff were also accepting a lot of walk-ins, so I'm assuming it's very popular with the locals.
