Visited again a few Saturdays ago on a nice sunny afternoon. Top pub - ten out of ten for atmosphere and location. Also recommend the live music on Friday nights. The management really make an effort - very lively, friendly pub on the canal.

How come addick is slating every other pub in fleet but has high praise for this one. It is a very nice pub but so is many others in the fleet area. This is a poor form of advertising.

Best pub in Fleet. Yes, it might be like an old fashioned boozer but every area needs one. Staff are always friendly and you can talk with friends without the blast of TVs etc.
|
Teriffic pub! Yes, it is a bit of a locals place, but the locals don't bite! Very friendly atmosphere, excellent and well kept beer, and good food at reasonable prices. My favourite place in Fleet - makes me wish I lived over Church Crookham end rather than Pondtail, then it'd be my local.

"You're not from these parts........." - This pub is a complete locals place, walk in and they'll all stop drinking and look at you! Having said that, the location is fantastic, especially in the summer, and the food and drink is good and reasonably priced.

Haahahaha Cidemaster, you can't beat a bit of shoe losing, I must regail you my Frome story....
Anyhow, this is a top boozer, good ale (TEA), top ploughmans avec chips (a must) and damn fine local'.
Also had a great time here in 1988 when I was chased down the road by a guy with a baseball bat, still if he will DJ (just)with Kylie, Jason and Rick Twatley, he's got to know he's going to get some barracking! No sense of humour some people!

Excelent pub, excellent food, excellent beers, excellent location, particularly enjoy going there and reminiscing about throwing my shoes in the canal as a young scamp.

Good food, well kept beer and a great place on the canal to enjoy a beer on a warm day.

Friendley and welcoming place with licencee bringing their personal touch to your table. Typical "country" pub barfood at just abouve competative price. Far enough from Fleet to avoid "youth" market, ideal for taking your granny too or a quite date.

Adjacent to the Basingstoke canal and attracts many walkers as a consequence. I would suggest a crawl but the pubs along the canal are too widely spread
