OMG! Went in here for a quick pint prior to going for a meal across the road in the Spanish restaurant. We walked in and very rapidly did a quick-about-turn. What a DUMP! It stank of stale smoke depite the smoking ban many months ago. It was a shadow of it's former self many years ago - a real disgrace from the days when it used to have live bands. I really hope it closes down and either re-opens as a successful live musc pub or..... gets turned into a block of falts. Quite frankly this is a pb that can only be dscribed as one whorelies on sad old male drunks and benefit single parent mothers on benefits - such a shame to have to make a living ouf of these sad sad people

what a disgusting dirty pubs and the drug problems in the bar are so noticable its unreal- sort it out !
|
Great pub and best selection of beer on the High Street. It is worth a visit just for the interior!
|
Great interior... Very much a locals' pub but plenty of space for locals & non-locals alike. Run-of-the-mill range of lagers & Guinness; if you're looking for real ale this is not the place for you.

Nice pub. Always had a warm welcome here. It's a bit intense when the football is on, but on other nights it's a good boozer.
|
One of my favourite pub interiors, and does good Guiness, although could be friendlier. Worth a visit, as is the improbably cheap and tasty Kansas Chicken over the Road.
|
great little pub, bar staff really friendly.
had some good nites with the karaoke in there.
|
Largely unknown gem of a pub. Well worth the extra trip.
|
A beautiful little pub which has escaped unsympathetic moderisation. Tables out front on the street and a lovely little conservatory and a concrete beer "garden" out back. Excellent Thai food served during lunch and dinner by the very friendly Joe. The bar staff are often quite moody and the clientele sometimes a bit stern but nothing "worrisome" in my humble opinion. With a slightly friendlier welcome this pub would have grand possibilities - as it is, can be a great place to visit if you are happy to bring your own good company.

This pub has a fantastic old gin palace in the back room, complete with decorative ceiling. In truth it's a bit ropey and the clientelle are slightly worrisome, but frankly that only adds to its appeal. During Euro 2004 they gave out free sandwiches and chips. Bonus!
