An 'okay' pub in just about every sense of the word but nowhere near as welcoming as Ringwood's sister pub the Porterhouse in Westbourne.
The Angel does have a good beer garden though.

Gone downhill....The staff seem ruder than they used to be. Might have been taken over. Defintely less welcoming than last time. Beer is still ok. 5/10
|
This pub serves good beer in an atmosphere conducive to a good chat. It is a better option to head for here rather than the High Street.

If you like decent real ale, this pub is for you. Normally has about 4 Ringwood ales on plus a guest beer. Good place for a pint and a quiet chat, although it does have a bit of a 'God's waiting room' feel about it.
|
No atmosphere and like other reviewers I experienced the landlady serving the arriving locals before me even though I had been waiting ages, that is just rude.
The Ringwood ale is well kept though but if you like lager the choice is pitiful - carling AND fosters, surely you are spoiling us?
|
not a bad pub...well kept ringwood beers and one guest ale...
|
Good selection of ales...staff took our order and then served someone else who had just walked up to the bar.
Avoid.
|
Service is much improved. Has the full range of Ringwood Ales that are well kept and one guest ale. Quite busy with blokes sampling their last moments of freedom (the Registry Office is next door).

Agree with SJC
|
Well-maintained pub in the older part of Poole. Ringwood beers well kept. The food was good too and reasonably priced. Surprising that this place isn't in the Good Beer Guide - it is worthy of a mention.
|
I agree it can be a bit too quiet sometimes but being a Ringwood pub it has the full range of their real ales plus a guest - never had a bad pint in there. Great pub grub as well.
|
Ales well kept but as the previous poster mentioned this place is lacking in atmosphere. Also took about 10 minutes to get served when there were only about six or eight punters present with only one of them waiting to be served ahead of me.
|
Nice food, nice pub, nice locals, very clean and tidy. Atmosphere seems to have died a bit in the past few months or so.

Hi Gary, Are you, who I think you are ? If so this pub has a certain resonance for me, being an ex-booty etc. Perhaps you could e-mail me or get your Mum to phone me on 07781 405273.

Ringwood brewery owned pub with all of their range of beers. This pub is situated in the old part of Poole with Music Thursday nights.
