| Good range of well-kept beers. All-in-all, not too bad a place for a pint. Had the London Porter which was on good form. Food looked quite good to. Felt sorry for some of the younger staff as the older (managers??) ones all stood at the left-hand side of the bar laughing and joking amongst themselves as the others did their jobs for them - despite there being quite a few empty tables to clear of plates and glasses; plus a load (25-30 at least) of empty glasses on the bar. Like a lot of places I've been to recently, the customer comes second to their wanting to go to work to socialise and not do what they're paid for! Rant over....... littledrummerboy - 15 Mar 2012 10:52 |
| A fairly quiet spacious pub on the edge of the city centre. The kind of pub you would go to on a sunday night for a quiet drink with your mate. Good to get away from all the city centre chaos bars. 7/10 montie49 - 10 Aug 2011 19:06 |

| Encouraged by Robski's comments, we paid another visit. It is a vast improvement on when I last visited 2 years ago, the food menu looked interesting with some nice specials on the chalkboard, the staff were friendly and the Ordinary was very nice. Well worth a visit. (They're in the 2010 Good Beer Guide, too.) Trequites - 25 Oct 2009 11:29 |
| Previus comments are now well out of date in my opinion. Current managers of this pub / hotel run a tight ship. Beer is always well kept, menus change twice a year, offers are on monthly and the place feels friendly, clean and welcoming. Robsk1 - 20 May 2009 15:27 |
