S-L-O-W service is right. That is, if you can get the staff's attention. They clearly aren't being paid for their productivity.

Recently moved to Southampton have been to this pub a few times now, found the food good value for money nothing special (kinda a quick bite if u can't be bothered to cook). London Pride, Becks on draft and a good chioce of wine reasonabley priced.

Next time I'll stick to lamb shank - ribeye steak doesn't do so well in the microwave.

I use to bring the missus here when I lived up the road. Yeah it's got pretty decor to please mormons, however I always thought the beer was way overpriced and the service was worse than Tim Henmans.

Painfully lethargic is right.Overheard in the Bellemoor:
Hello?.......Hello?.....Could someone top my guinness up please?.......Is someone there?.....Its been settling for half an hour i think its ready?....I quite wanted another before closing time...Excuse me....bugger it, i'll do it myself.
I'm a patient man but there are limits. They do a nice, unhurried pint of guinness.
Order all of your drinks for the evening the second you get someone's attention. They'll probably have given you some of them by the time you leave.
Not a bad pub apart from the above. If you're really, really old or are easily startled by sudden movement, this is the perfect pub for you.

Been using this place for about a year. I think I spent most of that time waiting for a drink. The staff in here are painfully lethargic. Beer's ok, food varies. Overview: "Intensely Moderate"
|
I havent been since the refit but have heard good things. The college kids are banned so should be alright for a quite drink.
|
Good value in the Restaurant. Recommend Lamb Shoulder excellent taste and value - compliments to the chef!

Recently refurbished pub that hasn't lost its locals. Liz and her staf are very friendly. The beer is well kept and they have guest beers as well as a decent wine list. The new extension and decor divide the pub into three areas: a bit for standing round the games machines, general seating/eating area and a separate non-smoking area with comfy chairs. The food is good, if perhaps a little over-priced for the area.
