No loss if its shut again, weird pub this one. Reminds me of some losers who pick on people at school. 'What so you drink Guinness, Haha - we only drink Carling in here mate, get lost!'
|
Visited the pub 18th September, I am afraid it's shut again.
|
I went into the Live on Friday just gone and was chuffed to see the place full of life again!! It's been through some tough times by any stretch of the imagination as is clearly coming through the other side, glad to call it my local again!
|
Good to hear Mr.S.P.R.
|
Pub is back up and running again.
|
I have to agree with Beersupper the place is closed or it was last week.I had a look through the letter box and it looks as if it`s just been left to rot. So Beersupper you don`t have to look i`ve done it for you ol chap.
|
Who told you this Beersupper, I walked past the other day and it was the same as usual I am sure, i didnt stop by however as i dislike the venue! Perhaps you could pay a visit and see for yourself :)
|
Have been informed the Live is no more, shut, gone, windows all smashed at the back, i hope this is not the case. Anybody know whats happening?????
|
This a great music pub, excellently run by Maz. There is a blues-rock jam every month on the second Tuesday and great local bands like Six Miles Away play on Saturday evenings. Great fun, friendly and intimate atmosphere.
|
This is a great pub, from the first time i walked in the locals were just warm and welcome, i do admit it is easier in there when you are a familiar face but hey arent most pubs like that
|
Good to see this pub is still here.Would not make it my local,but always have a pint here when in area.keep up the good work people.
|
I've not been in this pub for some years but having read the reviews, it's pleasing to see nothing has really changed a great deal. It's a 'no b......t', good beer, slightly cranky, out of the way place that still welcomes those delightful odd-ball harmless characters of life - many of whom are a lot smarter than their appearances or accents may infer!. It hasn't tried to be something it's not and I will make a point of visiting next time we're up from the coast. Yuppies, Hooray-Henries and Wannabees, please note, this pub will still be in business long after some of the other smarmy (re-named) joints have gone!
|
Unfortunately I have to agree with some of the other reviewers. Not the friendliest place if your face isn't known. Not very good ventilation, the last 2 times I've been there it was like sitting inside a chimney.
|
Been here once, locals fell silent when I went in, quickly got drink (wise not to get drunk unless you have Special Branch and US Secret Service in toe) and made my way to the 'Secret Garden.' This was a patio with a 10 foot high brick wall and tatty white patio set. Best of all I had a chewed dog toy and a steaming heap of dog shit for company.
|
Not the freindliest place to go. If you look like you are not too sure about this place expect to told to leave in a rather obvious manner
|
I go in here once a year for a departmental Christmas bash. Same regulars each year. They really are the odd squad, but the staff were very friendly (possibly because we amount to 30% of the annual turnover). Not sure about the high score this place has!

Went again on Saturday.
Regulars blocking access to bar with their stools. Not intentional, I'm sure but not very welcoming.

Don't remember prices.
Blood red carpet a bit disconcerting.

Very small traditional pub. The draw back is the hugely expensive prices. Nearly 3 quid for a pint of bitter last time I was there.
