All good things come to and end eventually. No real on tap yesterday (22 May 10) and seems like another change of ownership. I don't hold much hope of cask ales returning here. A damn shame if you ask me.

This pub has now reopened and under new management. Four cask ale's were on offer and was selling Tiger Bitter at £2.00 a pint. Looks like there will be more pumps being used soon, well, they've been installed anyway. I'm told this pub will be selling beers from the Warwickshire Brewery on a regular basis.

Looks like its bit the dust. It was CLOSED Saturday night at 2130 and also around the same time last night.

Unfortunately the curry night has bitten the dust after the chef called it a day which is a real shame as it was quality grub. Food is still available though. The important thing though is the beer is still very good indeed and the pub has recently gained entry into the 2010 edition of the CAMRA Good Beer Guide. Well deserved in my opinion.

Paid another visit last Tuesday for the Curry Night. Now I admit there wasn't a vast choice of flavours but you wouldn't normally expect it from a pub. I can safely say I had the best tasting curry for many a year. The Lamb was very tender and the Bajie's were all home made. It was pure quality. To top it all we had a choice of Slaughterhouse Saddleback, Jennings Sneck Lifter, Church End's What The Fox's Hat and Brew XI all at resonable prices. I'm impressed with the quality here, long may it continue.

This is a little gem. Four quality ale's available almost all of the time and the staff are very friendly. Well worth a visit. Beer is kept professionaly by the licencee and I fully expect the pub to be included in the next edition of the CAMRA Good Beer Guide. Regular beers appear to be BrewXI and Slaughterhouse' Saddleback Bitter. The pub also does food until 8pm weekdays. Sunday lunches are also available. The quiz night is on a Sunday and is quite a laugh.
