Attended for a function, warm welcome but unfortunately no beer due to a recent adjacent pub closeure.

Reopened and recently had bombardier in there, average not quite undrinkable, better off going in the Ship up the road

The Bird has now closed. One must wonder what the future holds; it was steadily going down hill.

Although it has been on my reviewing radar for some time now, until a recent weekday visit, The Bird In Hand had failed to be graced with my presence. A rather anonymous frontage leads into a large open-planned and rather bland interior, with a pool table in one corner and a jukebox being amongst the few objects to catch my eye. Seating is limited and this only adds to the feeling of emptiness. Being the sole patron didn’t help either. A sense of lack of imagination is prominent. A standard selection of keg beers are available at the bar, supplemented by two hands pumps: Courage Best and Bombardier – though both were sadly unavailable. I opted for the Guinness, which I felt to be a little pricey at £3.00 a pint. The chap serving was friendly enough however and the resident dog (Sid, I believe) was most intrigued by my shoe. There is a garden area out the back, though with the current state of the weather, will have to be left for someone else to investigate and report on. To conclude: here is an okay enough local, though is far too lacking to warrant a return visit from this reviewer.
