Been past the duke of wellington a few times and had never been in so i decided to go in a few nights ago and boy what a fantastic time i had. The Doombar was a beautiful pint. The Harveys was also a very nice pint and the best thing was that they was'nt expencive at all infact real good value for money. Fantastic atmosphere with great staff behind the bar.

Landlord and lady were absolutley fantastic and so so so friendly not only to me but to every person in the pub,,,lovely people.

Had a game of pool which pleased me cos not many places have one these days so was good to see one that was so nice to play on as it is in perfect condition and cheap to play.

I've been using this pub a lot rencently, the only thing I regret is that I didn't go in there years ago. The beer is excellent and the harveys is fantastic, the prices are as cheap as a mens dringing club , which is amazing for a pub, we deffo be goin back in near future.

This is a traditional pub with very friendly staff and reasonably priced drinks. I will definitely be visiting again.

Visited September 23rd 2011 Evening

Only one guy in the bar, he from Tipperary and was rude to my lady when he found out she was from Dublin! A grubby place that needs tarting up to make better use of its excellent location. But it appears from other reviews that the place rarely attracts punters so it seems the owners are still not getting the message.

Appears to be closed every time that I go past, at various times of the day.

I can't beleive this pub is still open. which it is, as every time I walk past it has no one in it..weird!

Unless you want to be bored out of your brains by the landlord and his wife talking about their travellers life, keep out. I give them 1 point because the glass was clean. Much better places close by

The landlady in this pub was very pleasant during my visit, but she has to be the oldest person that has ever served me a drink. There were two other customers in their twilight years which made me wonder why R&B and House tunes were piping out of the speakers.

The pub is split into two with the smaller front bar feeling like a living room and the back bar more like a social club with its pool table and dartboard. There are some very good paintings on the walls of both bars. The toilets are to the rear of the pub and the gents had no soap or hand drying facilities.

The Pride was good and they also had Harvey’s Best available alongside some standard lagers and San Miguel.

I doubt that I’d ever venture in here again as the local competition is much better.

This pub is ALWAYS empty, even on a weekend night. How can a free house get it so badly wrong and still survive?
