| Even though the place smells funny, the staff are unfriendly and the toilets a disgrace i dont mind The Head of Steam. When its busy the atmoshpere is good and has a decent selection of lager. scoreboard1 - 21 Sep 2008 11:57 |
| I actually quite liked this pub when I popped in on passing the other day but then again I like the kind of music associated with the pub and the relaxed atmosphere on the place. Well, it was relaxed at 4pm on a Sat afternoon anyway. I don't know how well real ale goes down with the pretentious student crowd but *idea* if one of the breweries was to put a picture of Che Guevara on a pump clip they'd probably make a killing :) Mark_J - 11 Aug 2008 21:56 |
| Visited on what I presume to be an ordinary Friday night...heaving,steaming,loud and sweaty. Good selection of beers behind the bar and an apparently good range of local beers on four handpumps, but having bought two of them, the clips were turned round on ALL FOUR within five minutes. One of the two pints we had was very bottom-of-the-barrel stuff, so it looks like they decided to maximise their profits for the night by serving the bottled stuff only quicker than they could change the barrels and pull real pints. For your actual ale-drinker, a visit at a quieter time must be best, otherwise be prepared to sweat pounds, spend even more pounds and have your senses assaulted by the noise level from what seemed like hundreds od students/bright young things in what seems like a phonebox.

| I popped in here last week while waiting for a train at just gone noon. I was the only customer and the place had a disinfectant smell about it (no longer masked by stale smoke since the Ban). The beer was okay but not in the best -kept state perhaps.Unfair to judge too harshly on this visit given the time of day. Ordinary - 3 Dec 2007 21:55 |
