please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Fairly nondescript boho-feel room with lots of hanging brass knic-knacs and a loud juke box pumping out varying but pretty decent tunes. 6X & Ringwood Best on handpump.

This pub always guarentees an eclectic mix of characters! We only pop in when we are waiting for our train but it entertains. Friendly bar staff and cheap juke box.

Recently visited for the first time in months, the beer was as good as ever (spitfire). friendly staff, good food. I stayed overnight and was less impressed by the accomadation,generally in a very poor state of repair (shower not working,room door did not lock, polyester sheets,very small duvet, wallpaper and tiles falling off etc.)It was however cheap and the breakfast was very good.
Since this website is devoted primarily to qaulity of beer, food, and service, and not accomadation,I vote 7/10. If however I was voting re the accomadation, they would be lucky to get 2/10 !

Crechetastic!

For a 'run down' looking pub close to the station, the beer is expensive! The beer was well kept, and the service friendly. A good position, near to the station, probably helps trade.

popped in when visiting family, blimey what a strange place, but will use again as friendly ,not sort of place used to drinking in and takes bit of getting used too!!!ideally situated
|
Well located as a meeting point if arriving in Salisbury by train. Ringwood best normally seems to be available and on good form, and they do a very good all day breakfast.
|
Very friendly, basic back street local. Good value grub with real ale from Ringwood and Shepherd Neame Spitfire. Two real ciders from Taunton and Black Rat from Moles (cloudy) Two friendly dogs and a well stocked juke box make this a place worth stopping.
|
This is a funny little place. Good ales, dangerous cider, and some damn fine local music talent. Close to station, and a worthy stop on a crawl through Salisbury, or just down Fisherton Street.
|
Potentially a great little boozer, ruined by tramp clientelle. Need a pint of ruff cider at 10 in the morning? They beat you to it. Nasty Mancunian regular named Mick. If the Landlady got tuff, she could make a killing with this ideally located bar.

Went here whilst waiting for train at the railway station - not bad in a standard pub kind of way; nothing special but good all rounder. Like many pubs wine not their strong point. Nice dogs in the bar

A reasonable local serving good Ringwood Best, Landlord and London Pride. Basically comfortable, but a recent evening marred by a foul-mouthed member of staff at closing time.
