please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

This place is a little oasis for drinking after work, and recently had a very fine celebration here for 9. Can't understand why comments continually so negative, because I seem to drink so positively, esp. Flowers.

Great beer garden and loads of parking!
service is poor: asked for a knife and fork they gave me 2 knives, asked for a chicken salad came with no chicken, bar staff sometimes gets confused at their tills and over charge you but then you tell them and they under charge you which is great!
friendly behind the bar which is nice and they usually recognise you which is also nice.
portions could be a bit bigger for price you pay especially for the roasts!
still like visiting the place!

Razor, You went there twice as a Christmas party of 30 and your steak was not to your liking, either time? Why didn't you tell the staff on the second time? MAKE SENSE.

I like the Leffe this pub serves.

Been twice for a xmas do, food cold on both occasions. Medium rare steak was ordered, turned up charred on the outside, and shoe leather on the inside.....won't be going back, if they can't look after a party of thirty....You ain't got no chance as a couple.

Certainly far better (and cheaper) than it was. Ought to be a gold mine.

This was an East End pub demolished and transported to this site and re-erected here in the 1930s, I kid you not.

Used to be great by which I mean 30 years ago. Now of course a chain.

I like the place. It's quiet and the food, whilst not fancy, is safe and unpretentious. It serves the kind of market it's targeting pretty well.

It seems pointless speaking negative about a pub just because you prefer a different style. It's more constructive to comment of the qualitiy of the beer, the food, the service and the ambience.

I've been there a few times over the years, if it wasn't doing its job properly, I wouldn't go back

I quite like this place for an occasional drink after work. Wadworth 6X is good and the food was good too when I ate there, which was before the recent renovation. I'm surprised others haven't been more impressed.

Not really much cop as a pub although it's quite an interesting-looking old building, I suspect it's in the wrong place to be a good location for a decent real ale pub, for example. Mostly seems to be useful for eating or for sitting outside. There is a largish car park, a children's play area, and no bicycle parking at all; which says a lot about the expected clientele.
I grew up a few streets away from this place and I don't think any of my family ever went there. I certainly can't remember going there until last night.

This is a truly poor pub. I don't quite know why, because they location is OK, it's not like it's a town-centre chav palace. But it's awful, and has been left to slowly spiral downhill for years. Whoever has allowed this to happen should be ashamed of themselves.

Shite. 2 Chave or 2 Chav not....?
