| It’s a small frontage but can hardly be called a small pub, it goes back so far that you think you’re in the next county by the time you reach the extent of it’s environs. The low ceilings, lack of natural light and a general lack of cleanliness give it a typical dreary JDW feel. There are two staircases that lead from either side of the bar up to the toilets that give a sense of going up to meet the hangman’s noose as you ascend them. What this pub really has going for it is the range of beer, there are about 10- 12 hand pumps with some interesting beers and also some from the local Tring Brewery. So, go for the beer but little else, I’ll visit again if in the area but I think if I saw half the pump clips turned around I’d probably do the same. Millay - 9 Feb 2008 09:20 |

| I visited the pub today (6 June 2007) for lunch for the first time for many months. As usual with JDW an excellent range of Cask Ale, here served with full measures, super pricing and at the right temperature. It was a delight to have a Wetherspoon not serve ale at Arctic temperature. The bar staff were cheerful and helpful (much much better than I found previously). BUT, I found the lunch food terrible. The lamb shank was so overcooked that it was mostly inedible. I fear that it must have been left over and reheated at least once. So, I found this to be a really good pub to drink in, but best eat somewhere else first! BeerEnthusiast - 6 Jun 2007 16:10 |
| This a Wetherspoon's pub. Quite an attractive one with quite a good atmosphere. Not quite your normal run of this chains pubs. Smallish bar with low ceilings and timbered effect with plenty of seating. Toilets upstairs as usual! Fairly quick service at the bar although one of the bar-maids seemed unable to speak! Food provided very quickly although it is the standard JDW menu. We were here about 2 years ago and it does not seem to have altered much. Not too bad as JDW pubs go. wyndham - 3 Dec 2006 14:59 |
