A new landlord/lady are trying to make a go of this previously troubled pub, very friendly need to be given a chance to turn things round with the help- of tier regulars and any passer-by's who fancy a quick jar. worth calling into

Lyme Regis can be an unfriendly and insular town and it takes a long time for new comers to be accepted. Yet the crew from the Angel were friendly and welcoming right from the start. Although the interior is not very inviting I would rather drink at the Angel than in one of the other pubs in town where if you're a new face you are totally ignored.

Anybody see this pub in the paper today? (Mirror page 20) Probably unfair to judge as we've only walked pass the place, but we won't be popping in any time soon.
|
Not a dump but a pub where a game of pool and some decent music is the order of the day.
|
Up and coming? More like down and going.

Many years ago this deserved to be in the guide but it has gone down hill FAST now it is a veritable DUMP!
|
Funny little dump of a pub. Someone has tried to make it very trendy, in a sort of ironic retro 80's chic style ( at least I guess it must be irony, they cannot think this is stylish, can they?) Full of noisy pop music. One for the kids, really.

Yes, has changed hands - live music is up and coming.
|
Rumour has it excellent new lanlords are coming. The Angel has a future. Watch this space

Can't see how this place ever got in the guide.
|
Recently done up and, yes, it's worse! Palmers really don't have any idea when it comes to doing pubs up - still stuck in the 1980s. Sell it off as a house!

Glad to see the back of bad rubbish. Maybe now they'll get a decent landlord

soon to be open

This pub closed down in April 2005 - so I am not surprised the crisps were stale - reopening soon after refurbishment though.

Sorry, but this place needs serious refurbishment! The beer from the cask was flat and the crisps stale. Used to be good but not now.
