| Now known as The Ale House (see separate entry for that pub). Well worth a visit for quality real ales. hollybush33 - 29 Sep 2023 20:08 |
| Pauline is a top landlady. Bar billiards, darts, beer and lager. tortoise68 - 15 Jan 2014 13:16 |
| Been in here a couple of times now and its always dead. Had a few good and a few bad pints, they seem to have a lot of ale on but no customers to buy it. They're always happy to change it if the barrel has past its best and are very apologetic. No food but the do have a dart board now and the staff are friendly (overly so at times). Nice clean toilets (this might be from lack of use) and a covered smoking area. Not a bad pub just maybe in the wrong place. copperken - 15 Dec 2012 11:37 |
| I have been in once since it re-opened. It has been thoroughly stripped of all character inside, the central bar replaced by a long bar on the north wall. My first thought was that the counter and back-bar came from Ikeas budget range, rather bland looking. The pool table had gone, dart board too. No jukebox, though the lady behind the bar said they let people plug their iPod/MP3 player into the sound system. No more "you pays your money, you take your choice. If you don't like the music selection, put your hand in your pocket". It was a quiet time, so I can't comment on atmosphere. Yevad - 3 Dec 2012 20:27 |
| Such a shame that Andy the Landlord is no longer there top bloke, still boarded up I believe, not been in since Andy went. Was a brilliant pub, good home made food, good selection of ale & lager! Thisisreviews - 11 Sep 2011 20:03 |
