Well, Not a bad place really. If you are near the castle this is the place to go for a drink. The pub looks small but goes back a long way. Beers on offer were not imaginative Hooky bitter, Black Sheep and Landlord but the Hooky bitter I drank was good. The menu look very good but then this place is owned by the same people who own Harrington which is one of the best if not the best restaurant in Kenilworth.

Never had a bad meal here.

Not a bad pub for a quick drink before tackling the minor slope to all the good pubs. Nice food if that's what you want. Excellent pint of Scrumpy if you need an excuse to miss work the next day. Bar staff involved in their own micro-soap.

My mistake. My memory of this place is that it is more very food orientated (good food though) - always felt like you were in the way if you were just in for a pint.

Hmmm. used to be a greay place, but seems to have lost its way - can't decide if it wantds to be a pub or an eatery. Seems to be losing out on the pub side of things. Shame really, as I ysed to enjoy popping in for a beer, but also used to to feed guests. Now I tend not to bother

gjs34 - think you've got this place confused withthe Clarendon House Hotel, which is a hotel bar - this place is definitely just a pub. Harringtons next door, terrible pub the other side, castle across the road.

A hotel bar. Expensive, average (at best) beer on offer. Not terrible but not really worth a visit considering the quality pubs that are nearby.

Nice place and the food used to be fantastic. Just a bit small - seating can be an issie but the beer is well served.
