| A great pub under new ownership. It's no longer owned by the same people as The Bull, thank goodness. The Harveys is really good, much better now it's back on hand pumps. The food is good and reasonably priced. There was no bad drains smell as mentioned below and it looks like they're opening out the back part so you can see the downs. Important to me - it's a family friendly, warm & welcoming pub again. In my opinion, a much better boozer than the snobby, overpriced and pretentious Bull. funbox - 21 Feb 2009 23:13 |
| Just when things were looking up it's been sold. No longer owned by the same people as the Bull it has gone down the tube. It is grubby and the main bar smells of bad drains. As for the beer - the range is more limited and the Harveys was warm. On the plus side The Bull is only across the road. seagull10 - 30 Jan 2009 20:59 |
| I went to this pub one lunchtime a year or so ago and to be honest, did like it much. It all seemed to go quiet when I, a stranger, walked in and although the beer was good, the food was cheap and deserved to be. Least week, I went visited again, expecting the worst but very pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, the beer was excellent and although we didn't eat on this occasion, the menu looked more adventurous and the food being brought out to other customers looked very good indeed. I will certainly go back and try the food next time. I know it is now owned by the same people who own The Bull but it seems much more relaxed and less swamped by ill mannered toffs. The young lady behind the bar, Sarah I think, was helpful, friendly and efficient. I'm giving this pub an 8, but it could easily go up. gareth1011 - 22 Aug 2008 16:49 |
| Went in here with a group a walkers. There's plenty of room inside and a rather "urban" garden at the back. Sat inside as it was a baking hot day and there weren't any shady tables left outside. Food was excellent, a bit more pricey than normal but worth it. I was on the cider to cool myself down, but those on the Harveys pronounced it a fine pint. alan_From_SAWW - 29 Jul 2008 12:02 |
| Went ina fter trying (unsuccesfully) to get a table at The Bull. Turned out well as the food was excellent and better priced than The Bull. Good ales on tap and nice staff. Open fire too. amytarrant25 - 24 Apr 2008 15:33 |
